The beauty is when those companies run out of human training data and start training on AI slop, just to generate even more AI slop.

This is probably already happening though.

It depends on the country you are living in. There are plenty of people with restricted and surveilled internet.

Manjaro was quite messy last time I tried it a couple of years ago.

Yes, so pretty much they don’t want to be held responsible. And the government is bending over to comply with the tech bros.

But how would they know I have been truthful about my age? I mean I am never putting my real age when registering on websites.

Why do they need the age after all. What are authorities going to do with it?

That’s a great question. I like the concept of more stable OS and I played a bit with NixOS in the past but ultimately decided that it is too much of a hassle to learn Nix to use it and decided to try Bluefin. I am actually overall content as I was able to install the missing packages either in Toolbox/Distrobox or using homebrew.

By the way I have actually found a way, and rebased my OS to another immutable flavor. I know that’s more of a workaround.

Why don’t you get some Intel Arc GPU, I think at the moment they are the best bang for your buck.

I would say this PC isn’t great on paper. The PSU is too weak and if you decide to upgrade in the future you would most likely need to change it. The 8Gb VRAM is also suboptimal, as well as the SSD size.

Not to mention that most of the pre-built PCs are cutting corners and probably this PSU would be no-name and I wouldn’t trust it.

You should target a 750W PSU from a respectable brand, with a bronze or silver rating (gold or platinum is even better, but it depends on the price). A GPU with at least 12Gb VRAM and at least 1Tb SSD. Optionally, I would even advise you to get 32Gb RAM if you can find at an OK price, because next year or so this is supposed to be extremely expensive and it will make your PC more future proof.

I am not into FPS and CP2077 really clicked with me. The combat is pretty fun and versatile, graphics and soundtrack are amazing and the story is captivating.

I hope this card is good.

Where is the bottleneck with the DRAM? Isn’t it at TSMC/Samsung? And Asus entering the game won’t change anything, unless they have fabs, which I think they don’t.

I have Fallout 4 but not the mods, plus 200Gb of free space is kind of rich, so I would better know how well it runs and if it is really worth it.

Is Fallout London easy to mod on Steam? I read that it requires some extra step, compared to GOG? And since I have the Deck only, do you know if it is easy to install it on the Deck?

It doesn’t help also that new GPUs and now even disk drives and RAMs are ridiculously expensive.

I am sure the end goal of corpos is to turn this into another subscription service.

I think it is a two fold problem, the SSD and memory prices exploded, and made PCs unaffordable, which is also shrinking the demand for discrete GPUs, as less people are buying/building their own rigs.

To be honest we desperately need competition in this sector.

Yes, I agree, I have KCD for a bit and never made it past the prologue. I started playing it again after I played the second part.

Kingdom Come Deliverance, I decided to finish it, after playing the second game in the free weekend and also bought the DLCs on the cheap.

I am thinking of buying the KCD2 during the winter sale and finish that one too.

True, maybe the best way then is to expose them only within your Wireguard network.

Thanks to both of you, my same thoughts, but I also wanted to hear an outside perspective as I am not so well versed in IPv6. But it sounds reassuring. Shall I also consider exposing some HTTP/S services for media over IPv6 is also relatively safe, as long as I have MFA etc?
