I repair stuff as a hobby and I'd been lucky and didn't really encounter the widespread bad cap issue. That is until I started messing with early 2000's receivers. Those are the only ones you can get cheap these days and man what a pain those are both and the sheer volume of parts that need to be replaced and in their designs.

One of the more interesting things for me was learning how in depth some of the commands are. For example I wanted to use wget to back up a website that was having issues at the time. I built an advanced command after going through every option and learning what it did.

My favorite aspect was the B-movie feel to the whole thing. I was dying when my character got punted right in the face out of a flying helicopter. I wish I could find more games with some humor like that.

I'm playing Bloodborne for the first time (emulator). Before that I was playing Far Cry 1 for the first time as well. Far cry was much harder, so far at least.

The only reason I still use my roku is because it has sound leveling capabilities that is much better than anything else I have. I use my PC for just about everything but recently Sling stopped working on the PC or at least the DVR is directing me to download some app? Also Paramount doesn't handle 60fps content (sports) on the PC very well, it stutters a lot.

Windows has sound leveling but I haven't had much luck with it when its really needed. My receiver is old and has only rudimentary sound leveling.

I can't recall having that issue but I stopped using pi-hole because it was blocking certain functionalities on some websites. It required a more hands on approach than I wanted to dedicate at the time.

Every time I mess with a Mac emulator I play some Snood. I think it was only free on that platform though.

I feel this way about a lot of RTX implementations.

Looks like that was removed from Steam a while back. It had a single player campaign from what I read.

NMS was such a mixed bag for me. I spent over a hundred hours on it yet still walked away wondering what there was to do in the game.

I've never played any BF games. Do they have good single player campaigns?
