    This just cemented my little experimentation of using Mint Linux on my primary PC. I've installed it on my backup/media PC that is currently has a 1070 and W10.
    This is getting to be too much. Honestly the hardest part is trying to figure out how security works on Linux. Theres that old addage of having to do your own security. But its this continuing(and increasing velocoty) of unneeded windows updates that is becoming too much to fight against. Ill gladly give up playing live service games if it means my OS isnt adding crud that nobody wants and that no work is being done on fixing issues already there.

    Ive always had a hard time accepting that in a debate I have to only talk about talking points that help me and ignore (or straight up gaslight IMO) any point that would help the opposition.
    Maybe it is just a problem with how it was taught to me in school but this mentality seems to be the norm IRL and I just hate it so much.
    I always try to see through someone else's eyes and it feels bad when that is not reciprocated and im just seen as an enemy to them.

    I havent had enough chance to get far into the game but its awesome that friends can join and contribute in a server, and thats what I primarily will play it for. So far my biggest gripes have been with an inconsistent UI interfacing(sometimes hovering and pressing a button works while in others you have to first select, inventory screen vs skill screen)

    I started up Jedi Survivor again after Andor as well, really got a hankering for some space opera. So much so that I picked up Dune Awakening on a whim and it carries a lot of processing in my mind.

    I had to change graphics settings to Medium because running at 1440 on CPU- [Ryzen 7 5700x] RAM- [32GB] GPU- [RX6750XT with 12GB VRAM] on Ultra or High made the game not smooth for some reason. While I do hope its just because it is a demo, I think it's not the best of looks.

Ive been playing the main story with a friend using Remote Play Together and 3 controllers were already able to join, with successful pressing of the button to block and attack being counted as a success if anyone thats playing presses at the right time, already being a thing as well.

    Another way of keeping kids from having to interact with their parents. I could foresee how this would contribute to the loneliness problem.

    So I dont throw out the cliched Harry Potter as a suggestion. If knights and low magic are up your alley, I would recommend the Rangers Apprentice books. Easy to read with likeable characters.

    How would life change if we had infinite sustainable energy. What could humanity do with something like that given the current state of technology. Everyone would have a fully charged phone at least.

    I'll add as a possible option, not buying it at all. Personally I think about so many other video games, shows, books etc etc that I can partake of that I can forget about that one game for a while with more to gain later. With skipping it new also comes the extra side benefit that the "new" game may eventually go down to the $20->$10 or less. So I add it to my wishlist and continue with other things and that means maybe at some point Ill see it for 80% off and buy it on impulse practically guilt free.

    Such a stark reminder of my own age, I was a child when I would see her on TV doing interviews and did not realize she was a holocaust survivor.
    Through the years though Im glad she was open about sexual topics because it flexes a freedom I think people who wish to express SHOULD be able to express. For that and for whatever good she made in peoples lives I wish her and her loved ones well.
