Oh, interesting. I was not familiar with Bazzite. I have a tiny Dell Optiplex hooked up to my living room TV, I was going to put Linux on there soon anyways. I wonder if that would be a good candidate for Bazzite.

Hah, nope it isn't an Intel. I'm currently fighting with my wife's old workstation that I'm trying to use as a Linux gaming rig. It has an i7 9700 in it, and it just does not want to run under 82C in game. I replaced the old thermal paste, added two (larger) case fans, and moved the HDD to improve airflow. I can try a better low-profile cooler, but I really don't know if that's going to do it either. Short of water cooling, which would mean new case as well, I don't know what to do.

I love Moonlight. I just switched over to Linux and haven't gotten my Moonlight host set up yet. But it's on my to-do list. What do you use to stream it? I'm rocking a Powkiddy RGB30. The square screen squishes stuff a little, but it's pretty cool to play Astroneer on something so tiny.

For me, it's a several hour process. I enjoy the cable management, for one thing. I like to handle each component as carefully as if I'm assembling a nuclear bomb. Idk, it's a fun therapeutic process that I like to take my time with.

Well, except for the last one I built. Which is basically just crammed in however I could get stuff to fit. Had to bust out the angle grinder for the graphics card to make it in. Had to relocate the hard drive cage. Cable management is just enough so they aren't rubbing on any fans. I have rubber shims wedged under the Blu-ray drive to prevent rattling in the stupid tool free drive bay. It's a disaster in there. But it usually doesn't get over 70C in game, so I'm not going to mess with it.

That would require making a reddit account. Ew.

At least there is dinner and dancing.

I think the worst way to sum up his channel is that he reviews MP3 players and bad headphones. You'd really just have to see it, he's very funny.

I would love a brain implant. I want to live in the Matrix, I want to have the Feed. Just not from him. Never from him.

It's probably about the Vienna concert that was canceled due to a terrorist threat.

Option 1, but secretly also 3.

Facebook is for my family. LinkedIn is for work. Lemmy is for me. That's all my social media.

Yeah, I'm ok with that sacrifice to avoid an Optimus Prime von Hammerpants.
