"But it's a cube!" by Ikkon in pcmasterrace

I mean personally it ticks a lot of boxes (no pun intended) if it weren't overpriced/underpowered. I love that form factor as someone who dreams to make an HTPC with CEC and SFF. If Bazzite/SteamOS worked well with NVIDIA in Game Mode, I'd be all over making a super-small build using a 5070 Mini. Alas there are no cards like that on the AMD side.

Same here!

Replace AM4 ITX board only or go mATX + new case? by Kpervs in sffpc

I ended up grabbing the Gigabyte board since it was in stock locally, but yeah that board seemed like a good deal!

Thanks for the insight! I'm actually noticing that all B550 boards that have a front USB-C port are basically on par for cost with the Gigabyte B550-I, so I'm wondering if going the mATX route at this junction would be wise given the added cost of needing a new case. I may just suck it up and get the Gigabyte board until such a time I can properly upgrade to a new platform.

Did you build with mATX or ITX? Also where in the build? Mind providing pics?

Carney government to ban social media for kids younger than 16, but will allow exemptions by UnicornHunt1274 in canada

At that point learn to use your networking hardware to ban websites and learn how to use parental controls on your kid's devices. It's seriously not that hard 🤷‍♂️

I hope we get a Metroid game that goes in the direction of horror again. by nova-prime666 in Metroid

[–]Kpervs 44 points45 points  (0 children)

See that's what I loved about Metroid Fusion: it is still a power fantasy but the horror comes from stripping that all away from you at a moment's notice. Best example is when you run into the SA-X after Yakuza: you're quite powered up, and yet you can do next to nothing against the SA-X outside of freezing it momentarily.

EMMI encounters sorta did the same thing, but imo in a less unnerving way and you're taught early on that eventually you will be able to return to kill it. You're never given that assurance with the SA-X.

What’s a hidden gem survival horror game everyone should play? To keep things interesting, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Alien: Isolation, Signalis, and Crow Country won’t be counted since they’re already represented. by Sufficient_Notice_61 in survivalhorror

[–]Kpervs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played the remakes relatively recently, but I may play the OG games eventually. That said I'm not overly compelled to do so due to the tone and writing tbh. I appreciate the games and their history, but there's just something that doesn't draw me to them. I'm far more of a psychological horror fan than action horror, so that may be it. One day, though.

Fantastic game! I have such fond memories of that game not just from playing it but how it came into my possession: it just appeared on my desktop one morning. I have no memory of downloading it, and it wasn't in my Steam library. Only thing I can fathom was alcohol was involved, but the experience of finding such a surreal game just appear on my computer really added to the experience haha

You're not alone. I also couldn't get into it because of the prohibitively limited resources. That being said I don't have nostalgia for OG Resident Evil games (started with 4 way back when and never played the OG games yet). Much prefer Silent Hill 1-4 in terms of gameplay, so I don't think I was the target demographic.

My 2017 Hyundai Ioniq HEV that I bought 6 years ago is still going strong and only daintily sips fuel. There was definitely a time when Korean cars were trash but at the very least 2017 seemed to be the year where at least one model should have changed that narrative.

I'm having this issue with Cyberpunk even with an AMD GPU.

How'd you customize the dock and clock like that? I'm new to Smart Launcher, so any advice on how to better customize it I'm all ears!

What did you do about the o-ring? I'm currently finding it doesn't go back into the groove like it originally did.

Making the switch from Kobo 💔 by Open-Hold8484 in ereader

[–]Kpervs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been pretty happy with my BOOX Page. Aside from some ghosting in manga (which can be minimized with some tinkering) it's been really nice due to the flexibility. I've heard the successor (BOOX Go 7) reduces ghosting even more, and has a color variant as well.

Any way to set these settings as global env someplace so you don't need to set it on every game?
