I'd buy that for a dollar!

Still waiting for the PSU since last week. Fortunately most of the PC is OK. Mobo + CPU + M.2 Sata + GPU

Sadly, I’m trying to get my COMPUTER to resurrect. Dead PSU.

Does anyone know if this can be done any OS or just POP?

If there is a way, then by no means is this vendor lock-in, and if there isn't... Hey, it's a selling point.

Quoting: Howard-Thrash_Metal_Computers

Quoting: ysblokjeCARRION & Brutal Doom (I & II). I must be out for blood lately ;) Ohhh good one I should play more of that game too.

Brutal Doom was soooo good, absolutely transformed how I played Doom. Such a great carnage fest!

Quoting: AcrophobicI'm happy to mention that I still playing Euro Truck Simulator 2 :happy:

Right now I'm still working from home which means I don't have a fixed work time. Thanks to this, sometime I forgot to stop working which leads to burn out in the next day. In other hand, I can't afford to play game for too long because it might took me a long time to push myself back to work. With that said, ETS2 hit the good spots for me.

So far in ETS2 I still don't have any truck, so I still took the quick job which is about 30-60 minutes for me. It's long enough for me to take a break from my job, but still shorts enough so I don't lose motivation to work.

Out of interest, what is the pull for Euro Truck Simulator for you? I know those games have a huge following!

Quoting: appetrosyanStarCraft 2 . No brainier. Active competitive scene, runs smooth (if you get fsync, e.g. Linux-zen), and has a lot of depth.

Witcher 2. The game isn’t balanced at all. It’s too hard in the beginning, too easy at the end. But it runs great and has some of the best implementations of bokeh in gaming.

Doom 3. One of a select few games that have an actual engine on Linux. It’s missing features, but if you get the Non-BFG edition, you’re in for a treat.

Dead Space 2. Not the same horror masterpiece that DS1 was, but on the other hand, it has a few creature comforts, and a remarkable selection of challenges. (I got the foam finger BTW).

Quake 4. Same deal, but better. It’s got wonderful set pieces, remarkable combat, and a lot of atmosphere.

I have watched countless hours of SC2 eSports and can't enough. I would love to try my hand at the competitive ladder myself someday. What rank are you on the ladder and how long have you been playing for?

Quoting: alejandro-bringasI am currently playing Fortnite, Apex and Team Fortress 2, the latter is my favorite online game.

Yep, Team Fortress 2 is incredible and I love every second of it! Medic for life :) I got to help my Heavy brothers ;)

Quoting: TobyGornowYesterday, I've finished Ion Fury and my opinion is that it's awesome.
Another FPS but with one of the best level design I ever saw, the music is so great and fits the fast paced action you're put through, graphics are finely crafted pixel arts with lots of variety.
About the gameplay, I've had more fun with this one than Doom eternal, to hell with flame thrower this and glory kill that, me see me shoot and that's what I want. Doom is still very good don't get me wrong...

And I also finished Shadowrun Returns, a fallout-ish squad based T-RPG. It's good fun, not transcendent, writing is good, found it a tad boring in the end.

Finally, I've started a memory refresher of Beneath a Steel Sky, works great with ScummVm.

I really want to pick up Ion Fury, I'm just waiting for a nice price cut on GOG and I'll most likely pick it up.

I was never a fan of Doom 2016. For me, every time I tried to play it, it didn't capture the same feel as the original Doom games. The weapons in the original Doom felt truly meaty and dealt out a lot of damage, whereas many of the guns in the 2016 reboot didn't have that same feeling (the shotgun for one). Plus the glory kill system became very repetitive after a while (I know that was the way you got health and armour back, but having to keep doing the same thing over and over with the same animations).

Doom Eternal from what I have seen seems to carry on the same systems from Doom 2016, albeit with more movement options, use of the flamethrower for collecting armour etc.

Of course, some people absolutely loved Doom 2016 and that's awesome! ID put a lot of work into those games and it shows.

The soundtrack however is simply incredible and I happily headbang to those tunes during any occasion. Mick Gordon is a genius.

I have been playing Telltale's The Walking Dead - Episode 3 and finished it over the weekend.

Spoiler, click me

In my playthrough, Duck and Katja both died and I felt terrible for Kenny.

Everytime I say this, but it's true, Telltale (or what is left of Telltale after some of its assets were acquired by LCG Entertainment) make some truly believable characters.

To answer your question, I’m a 2v2 master. I never played solo, but shouldn’t be far below diamond (which is the solo rank of my 2v2 partner).

Great news. Wish I could partake in summer of code. Lots of good things for FOSS happen then.

Quoting: Duke TakeshiCan't buy an AMD GPU as I'm doing machine learning and Nvidia cards are much better at that. So I'm waiting for the new Nvidia GPU series. For CPUs it's getting more interesting.

You mean, “don’t have CUDA”?

Great news, I actually went back to enlightenment (from sway), because I wanted to use lbs for twitch.
