The original FFVII game! Figuring out how to get the multiple discs to work from an emulator was a bit of a pain, but afterwards it's been easy sailing! While it certainly has its problems, I can see why it's so popular. Planning on checking out the remakes later on to get more of it, but I can't deny I'll miss the low-poly graphics of the OG, as I've always had a soft spot for that kind of 3D art

Pretty good! I'm going to be able to get the first part to my custom PC next month (GPU, Raedon 6800 XT) so I'm pretty excited!

VPNs protect your IP address, which is useful, but it ends there. Your IP is known to your VPN provider and can even still be found by those tech-savvy enough if you don't take the right precautions. Basically, VPNs are useful, but don't expect them to be the ultimate privacy multi-tool. It's more like one of many different tools to protect yourself online

The light theme is good, although I would recommend changing the yellow text to a darker shade, or changing the color entirely (yellow on white is really hard to read). And the dark theme is perfect! The icons are amazing, too :)

Oh they're really sticking by this stupid decision aren't they. Well, they can't complain about being laid to rest if they're the ones who dug the grave, I guess

Will probably use Reddit every now and again but Lemmy has been a MUCH more pleasent experience overall, I can't see Reddit becoming nearly as nice

Yeah, that's why I wanna dual boot myself, except there's some software I need on Windows that isn't available on Linux along with games. Also, what distro(s) do you use? I've already picked out a few candidates for what I'll use, but it's nice hearing firsthand experiences

Trust me, I know (I tried running Linux on my current NVDIA PC... Never again). While I plan on running Windows (mainly due to how much support it has for like. Everything) I do plan on running Linux on a laptop in the future and possibly dual booting

As sad as I am by how Reddit turned out, this was the kick I needed to start truly indulging in the fediverse! Everybody's been nice so far, and I hope that it continues to be that way

No, sadly. Besides, I don't know if I would go with that option even if it was. I've been wanting to build my own PC for a while and I am willing to run the risk, although it would be nice to have somebody with experience help

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I would, but unfortunately I don't know anyone with experience in this area. But I won't be doing it by myself, and I've done quite a bit of research, so I at least think I won't mess up to the point of breaking anything

 

I've been getting a lot of lag on the site and want to know if it's something anybody else is experiencing lag as well

 

I'm planning on building a PC soon and, while I have done plenty of research, I'd like to hear advice from people who have experience in the area personally. It's also just nice talking to other people in general, lol
