So few of these games sound like something I would even want to play, especially with the price increase from last month, it's absolutely not worth it this month for me.

Never got into competitive play at all, but co-op with friends against the hardest AI was always a joy

Comment on I used a new computer for around a month, here's what I think of every part of it in ~comp
AevumDecessus LinkYou definitely want to move the case fan to the SYS_FAN1 header to avoid that issue with the case fans. It's about midway across the top of the motherboard in the center, just to the left of the...The CPU gets fairly toasty though and it makes the fans make a lot of noise, it could be because I connected the CPU and the case fans to CPU_FAN, so it gets fairly loud whenever it gets to around 70C.
You definitely want to move the case fan to the
SYS_FAN1header to avoid that issue with the case fans. It's about midway across the top of the motherboard in the center, just to the left of the RAM.Since you're using an AIO liquid cooler, you don't actually have a standard CPU Fan, you'll probably want the radiator fans plugged into the
CPU_OPTport next to theSYS_FAN1port, as that's the one that is designed for a water cooler pump.Since you plugged all the fans into the
CPU_FANport, it's trying to run all of the fans at the same percentage of speed as if it was a cooler fan directly on top of the CPU, which tend to be quieter, but higher power fans that run faster, but generally quieter. -

Comment on uBlock Origin Lite maker ends Firefox store support, slams Mozilla for hostile reviews in ~tech
AevumDecessus Link ParentSo frustrating for the developer, but not the end of the world for end users who aren't willing (or technically-minded enough) to go to a non-official website to add an extension manually to their...It is worth noting that the original uBlock Origin for Firefox is still available and supported. The Lite version is a Manifest V3-based extension with a lighter and more efficient load on resources, such as processor and memory. Hill recently recommended switching to uBlockOrigin Lite after Chrome started flagging the extension as unsupported (there is a way to circumvent that). Contrary to Chrome, Mozilla does not plan to drop the Manifest V2-based extensions in the near future, so uBlock Origin will continue to exist and work on Firefox and other browsers with MV2 support.

It's quite a good action/puzzle game where you have to figure out how to combine elements to make spells to complete puzzles and combat. Who knows, if you play far enough, you might even run into me in game :-D
There's a whole playlist of Ed talking about writing and the game

Started working on the technical side of a charity project this week. Going to be a way for users to record themselves reading children's books, then we're going to put a QR code linking to the reading inside donated copies of the books to donate to local children's hospitals.
