It saves a lot of money for each subscription service you can skip.

I only had to buy a VPN and a cheap mini PC as a server. And then a 1tb SSD. Then I needed to buy another 2tb. And then I had to run Ethernet upstairs for it since the WiFi card couldn't keep up. Then I had to upgrade the router to support the new gigabit cabling...

Eh, well, at least I get to keep something out of it.

Those cereal box games were so cheaply made they had a tendency of blowing up when spun in a high RPM disk drive. The ones we had weren't mini disks but we had one blow up on us, although we did get some RollerCoaster Tycoon games from them.

I've got Ubuntu on my 2015 MacBook that worked out of the box except dedicated/integrated graphics switcher and the webcam. I also installed Windows which Apple puts out official drivers for. It's just a computer, you can plug in a USB drive and install other operating systems just the same as any other laptop.

It still runs decently, I often forget it's a 10 year old machine. I boot Ubuntu on it for work though, and boot Windows on it for the occasional game. It's a useful machine.

Haven't thought about rage comics in a long time, thank you.

I think in both cases it just cuts power.

TF2 has official private server support, from day 1 I think.
