I gave up sim racing online after a crash and seeing the other players replay of the crash. I didn't think I was at fault but because of the lag, I totally was.
My ping from Australia to Europe was just too much in order to ensure others could have a safe race. When everyone else has 20-40 ping and I'm racing with 150+ it's just too much lag to be safe on the track
Except self checkout isn't faster. The professionals that check you out do this every day, they're way faster than me.
Not to mention 100% of the time I use self checkout, the machine doesn't realize I've put something in the bagging area and I need a staff member to sort out the broken machine, but because there's 1 staff member doing this for a dozen machines, they're constantly busy sorting out these broken machines so you often have to wait minutes for them to fix it.
It's more like a detached room in the back yard, like a small granny flat. I've been using it as a workshop but I don't use it nearly enough to justify so repurposing it to be an art studio for my wife, as well as a VR space for me that i can have my racing sim rig setup. Also planning on building a VR pinball cabinet.
I'm building a dedicated windows VR gaming PC that can live in my shed so I don't have to dual boot windows to use my racing sim.
Yes Linux and proton have come a long way, and for the most part is more than good enough. But for certain things (like my HP Reverb G2, or proprietary sim racing hardware drivers) it's just easier to pirate windows
Another hole can carry analogue audio? I think you're referring to a USB port when you say "another hole can do the same job", but obviously it can't carry analogue audio. You need an external DAC to convert the digital audio it can output, to analogue. (The phone already has an internal DAC so this is dumb)
And then of course you run into the issue of being unable to use it while the phone is charging because you have 1 port for 2 different jobs
Not all of us like the idea of wireless earphones, there are still many who prefer to spend good money on nice IEMs or headphones that don't have to be charged to work, rather than overly expensive, subpar wireless options that will inevitably turn into e-waste when the batteries can no longer hold a charge.
Not to mention the ubiquity of the 6.5mm/3.5mm jack, this is standard across every piece of music gear you can think of from synthesizers to electronic drum kits to guitars, pedals, and interfaces.
You certainly don't walk into a recording studio and find USB C ports to plug into
Yeah it was portal! Good guess
$1,100 over 15 years. I'm not a gamer, and I'm well aware I don't own these games, so I'm glad it's low
Depends on what countries classification system you're using. Most countries don't use pg-13
FYI PG-13 seems to only be a rating in a handful of countries, such as america, Iraq, Lebanon, Singapore and Qatar (I hadn't heard of it so did a quick search).
In Canada and Australia for example, Gremlins is rated PG
This also applies in Australia

Wow a dedicated line is serious commitment. But yeah ultimately when you're connecting to servers on the other side of the world there's not a lot you can do.
