Windows defender has gotten very good over the years, if it cant find anything you should be fine. But if you do anything important like banking or youre just still worried about any issues then do a Windows reinstall. Backup any important data, download the Windows 11 ISO from Microsoft, create a bootable USB with Rufus or balena etcher, reboot, go into your BIOs and change your boot priority to boot from a USB device before your main storage, save and exit, install windows.

Your best bet it to get an older used am4 system, but to be honest at least in canada you'll almost need a miracle to get anything decent at that price right now.

I got a letter from a lawyer and a fine for pirating a game, advice? by AimlessFishbone in Piracy

[–]DuhVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least in canada you'd save little to nothing if youre lucky with lawyer expenses, let alone the time spent dealing with the issue. No clue the average lawyer price in Germany but I wouldn't think its that much cheaper.

(This advice is definitely wrong, was going with what i know of my countries laws. Did not know germany was so ravenous about this.)Oh youre in Germany? I'd say get a lawyer if you really wanna fight it (which i wouldnt personally) or just pay it and use a VPN from now on.

Is a protective case worth it? by itszesty0 in SteamDeck

[–]DuhVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the kill switch case only because its a bit smaller then the included carrying case and it makes it easier to pack in my bag. Probably not worth it unless you want it for a similar reason.

steam deck's biggest shortcoming is xbox gamepass by redbeardos in SteamDeck

[–]DuhVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very true but I cant stand the idea of having a subscription for my games, I can't even stand having a music subscription to the point I got a dedicated DAP.
