That parity thing was debunked 2 years ago when a similar lawsuit against Valve was dismissed, their parity thing is for resold Steam keys, which Valve issues with no profit margin. Milberg London are trolls that tried to do the same lawsuit against Sony and PlayStation last year. Also got nowhere.

Valve isn’t pulling any anticompetitive moves though. They just try to secure profits by being the best instead of destroying everyone else that dares to compete with them.

What’s the problem with the port? It’s considerably less prone to accumulate debris in my experience.

USB C cables are more fragile, but it’s designed that way so the ports are more durable. And I think having more durable ports is the right call.

This has made my Lemmy experience considerably better

If only they offered a solderless version.

And those 2/3s shine through, the last big engine update for HL2 was in 2007. It still looks great.

The art direction is impeccable and it still shines for it.

To be honest, the biggest takeaway of the trailer is how well the original HL2 aged.

The new engine is finally out for PC, nice. That means better performance in endgame maps.

I symlinked the game folders from a NTFS drive to steamapps/common/ on my ext4 drive, and it works fine. Of course the compatdata and shader caches are on the ext4 drive.

You plug it into a dock with a good monitor, keyboard and mouse, and you have a decent desktop experience going.

My autocorrect messed up.

Exploding Heads is federated defederated by democratic vote.

Nah, not really. House has 2 episodes where the writers invented diseases (only 2 on the entire run is very respectable though), but more than that, it’s not realistic to have 4 docs working on one case all week. And the cases are very unrealistic in the sense that a lot are not mysteries. If you’re an MD/DO, you can see some of the diagnoses coming a mile away while House and his team pretend it’s a super rare thing. I particularly remember one of the Lyme disease episodes where I got the diagnosis almost immediately, and I was still on med school.

On the other hand, Scrubs gets the lifestyle of an intern right. Except there’s a lot less sex in real life lol.

You can do that, but be aware, upscaling with FSR takes a performance hit. It’s not a big one but can make the difference between stable and unstable 30FPS.

Yup. Standard 2230 M.2

In most it doesn’t matter, but in some newer games like Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, the difference is massive.

Can you point me to a $350 laptop with similar specs? And the form factor is the whole selling point, duh.
