As someone who works in Level 2 and 3 Tech, the majority of people who do contact me are actual morons who legitimately think turning off and on their monitor is akin to rebooting their PC. I know that has been memed to death, but it's true. I've legitimately had to make a whole presentation on the various ways to restart a computer and present it to a group of about 20 people.

I have so many stories to the point where, if I don't treat everyone like it's their first time touching a computer, it will lead to the user getting pissed off because I didn't tell them that they had to left click on their mouse because they're so used to their phone being touch screen that they assumed that every screen was.

I don't get the appeal of Threads, even if it wasn't run by Zuck. There's no Followed tab, you see literally everyone unless you decide to mute everything you do t want (which is a lot), and the search sucks. Oh, and it's not in chronological order.

Calm your tits my guy. I could go on and on to my family about privacy and all of that, but they don't give a shit. Now, if I were to tell them that I was banned from Messenger, they would actually switch to Signal. Some people don't really have any other option.

This is exactly my stance too. I'd love to try this game, but I'd be buying it just for it to not work soon. Seems like a poor financial decision to me.

Honestly, the entire SBCGaming subreddit needs to make its way over.

Just because it's Chinese doesn't mean it's no good. I have several of Anbernic's devices and they're wonderful.

You can play it directly out of the box, but there are custom OS's out there that run things even better and add more features. You do supply the ROMs, but there are plenty of ROM packs out there too to make your life easier. I honestly recommend looking into RetroGameCorps on Youtube, he has some great content around these types of devices.

If you get the RG35XX specifically, I'd recommend this guide.

So, from what I've seen, it also counts comments under a tweet. So if you tap into a tweet, it automatically counts all of the comments as part of your limit. So, if you view a few popular posts, you're done for the day
