So I went and looked. OP seems like a very unhappy individual. I found traces of the below plus a lot of the "whiney entitled gamer" archetype. I sure hope they find happiness someday.

I don't know that sending it to a random Latina would work. She'd probably be weirded out by some random person removed about a game.

I don't mind tasteful, well paced ads. That said, I use New pipe and Firefox with Ublock Origin because no one seems to remember what those are.

It's my fault. I signed up for it before I realized it was a pro China instance and the other day I said I'm not a Communist.

I posted elsewhere about my setup. I have a rig in one room and a mini PC set up as a "console" using HoloISO connected to a TV. I stream games to it.

If it's your only rig I recommend what the other person said. Get a full PC or catch a gaming laptop on sale unless you have a very specific use case. You can play modern games on higher end ones but you'll get more bang for your buck out of a PC. You can make your own Ship of Theseus and upgrade parts one at a time.

It's definitely a show of its time. I haven't watched it in YEARS but I can't imagine a lot of it aged well.

That said, I enjoyed it.

My first house was a 3 bedroom, 2 bath in rural Texas for 5k more than that. That was 14 years ago. I just looked it up and it's currently $130k. It was built in the 90s, is brick, and still looks pretty good.

Artists of all types. Egirls. Game creators. News organizations.

That's not being slackass. You bringing in a machine to watch porn on is your supervisor's problem, not IT's.

I was told multiple places that the only thing they wanted filtered was malware sites. They have a C-level who wants to watch porn but don't want to pay for someone to set up access groups? Don't want to pay or give time to have someone lock down the network? Not my monkey, not my circus.

Of course it's come a long way since I was doing it. Those things took time. Now you just set up your access list based on directory services groups and click a few buttons. But it's still not my problem.

ADHD combination type and used to battle depression with anhedonia every single day. I wasn't sad, I was uninterested and couldn't feel pleasure. I haven't beaten it but I'm in control these days.

It's an exhausting feedback loop. The less I did because I just couldn't get myself together enough to do anything the worse I felt. The worse I felt, the less I was able to do.

I see you, friend.

I played Cyberpunk on Stadia. It was pretty good, no complaints from me. Stadia worked out really well in general for me.

I replaced it with a Steam Deck when it shut down. I used the money that Google refunded me and ended up not spending anything on it. I think BG3 was the first Steam purchase I made that didn't come out of the refund.

I liked cloud gaming. I may dabble in it again someday but I don't play often anyway and now I have a backlog so it'll be a while.
