I told my mom that I'm gay. I'm actually not, but it's really effective at getting her to stay the fuck out of my life and she no longer has any interest in such things from me.

She also doesn't try to hook me up with anyone anymore because she's a christian.

Planetes gets closer and closer to a reality

Says the guy who couldn't go out in public without standing behind bullet-proof glass after a piece of a teleprompter scratched his ear...

I thought it was Scotty who didn't know?

Until it also becomes overused every time someone says anything

Finally, a woman that scratches her ass like I do. Wrist-deep and no shame, I'm in love!

The top-middle one actually does look like a real photo, though, especially at the low res. Or maybe it's just because it's adjacent to such obvious fakes that in comparison it seems more realistic? I can't seem to find any of the usual anatomy/lighting problems in it like I can see in the others almost instantly.

I'll never touch Windows again, and stopped using it over a decade ago. I unfortunately don't have any experience related to this laptop, but when it comes to dual-booting other OS's it's no different than any other machine. I can't imagine it would have issues with Windows, and System76 has some info on installing Windows

I don't have to do anything special to run games, though. I pirate a lot, and play legit Steam games as well. Only issues I run into are related to anti-cheat, but that's nothing new for Linux gaming. Once you're in Windows, it likely won't be any different than using Windows on another machine.

I just saw your other comment where you mention wanting to play CyberPunk 2077. FWIW, it runs great on my Ryzen7 model almost highest settings, so I'm sure it won't have any issues on the Ryzen9.

Good luck with the hunt!

The System76 Pangolin has an AMD APU that's pretty powerful. I have the Ryzen7 model, but the newer ones are Ryzen9. Comes pre-installed with Pop_OS!, but they also provide firmware packages for Arch, Ubuntu, Fedora, and NixOS. I've also tested Nobara and Bazzite on it with good results.

I can play pretty much any game, as long as it runs in Proton normally, with very little FPS issues. Only games that chug are poorly optimized to begin with, but usually dropping the res to 1600x900 with FSR on will fix most issues.

Also, "most economical" is tough these days with the tariffs and all. I got my Pangolin for $1000 shipped, then a few months later the tariffs hit and the price rose to $1500 before shipping.

I'd go even further and say, release documentation that shows how to DIY new parts from scrap you got laying around or can find in construction debris and junkyards.

Not OP, but I also live in the woods (albeit I'm in a 4x4 vehicle and don't stay in one place for long periods).

The point for me is not to, and nature is my TV. When I do need internet, though, I'm in town stocking up on supplies or hanging out in a coffee shop.

Also, though, 5G and the abundance of towers means that hotspots work in a lot more places than they used to. More often than not, my phone still gets data even deep in the middle of nowhere. I'm not doing any gaming or streaming, but again I don't necessarily want to. It's just a tool to get information some times and make dumb internet comments.
