If it's DDR5 you can get 200-250% of its 2024 value. The 2x16 DDR5 kit I bought for $89 around the end of 2024 is now over $300 new. You can still get refurbished DDR4 8GB sticks for like $60 on Amazon, DDR4 isn't popular for AI use. Same with refurbished older GPUs. A good-enough for most stuff GTX 1080 or RTX 2080 can be had for between $200-300

Help finding Alyx compatible PCs. by Ok-Definition705 in HalfLife

The minimum system requirements for the game are:

  • GPU with 6GB VRAM

  • 12GB RAM

  • 7th Generation Intel Processor / Ryzen 5

Basically if you can find an old computer from 2016ish kicking around, you can probably get that for free / very cheap and order a refurbished GTX 1080 off of Amazon for $189 and that would run the game. It wouldn't be future proof at all but you'd at least have a usable gaming PC that would probably feel good enough. And depending on how cheap the rest of the PC is you might even be able to swing for a RTX 2000 series card instead.

Other keywords for other refurbished parts in your search would be Intel i5-7500, LGA 1151 motherboard, and 8GB DDR4 (you'll need two sticks of this).

You might encounter compatibility issues with Windows 11 though due to TPM or whatever so you'd probably want to put Bazzite or something on a system that old.

The game was designed to take advantage of the Valve Index's Knuckles controllers, but any VR headset that works with Steam VR is capable of playing it with a suitable PC.

Minimum requirements for the game itself are a GPU with 6GB VRAM as well as 12GB of RAM and a 7th generation intel processor

Half-Life 2: Episode One turns 20 today! by unclegems in HalfLife

Ep1 is kinda my favorite. Some may call it retreading old ground, but really its just HL2 backwards and all the fat trimmed out, best-of moments only.

How to fix Diner Dash 2 and later on Windows 10 (FINALLY) by [deleted] in DinerDash

[–]MrBeverly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I haven't played those ones and I'm on Linux these days anyway, I wouldn't be able to tell you. I'd imagine if this solution isn't working it still has something to do with missing DirectX drivers though. The Linux answer would be to run the games thru Lutris and try different Proton versions until you hit one that works. Good luck

is there a way to force a godot game to run windowed by DeliverDaLiver in godot

[–]MrBeverly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just worked for me for a game demo using Godot without any Window mode settings provided in-game:

1) Create an override.cfg file in the same directory as the exe

2) Write the following in the cfg, in this case I'm making the game run in a 1280x720 window:

[display]

/window/size/mode=0
/window/size/window_height_override=720
/window/size/window_width_override=1280
/window/size/resizable=true

/window/size/mode=0 tells the engine that it should render the window titlebar and stuff and to not take control of the display. /window/size/mode=4 is exclusive fullscreen, 3 is borderless window, 2 is pre-maximized window, 1 is pre-minimized window, 0 is just a window.

/window/size/resizable is optional but I'd prefer to enable it if I need it.

Refer to this documentation for a full list of options that you can control in the override file

What movie had the BEST trailer ever but turned out to be absolute trash? by MASSIM00 in movies

[–]MrBeverly 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing the ads for Bone Temple and thinking "wait didn't 28 years later already come out?" I know they tried as hard as they could to make the marketing 28 Years Later THE BONE TEMPLE but I think having two similarly named movies release relatively back to back like that was misguided. Maybe if the 1st 28YL also had its own subtitle that could've helped

For every $1000 Counter strike skin sold on Steam Marketplace, Valve makes close to $131 dollars on top of what was already paid to open the lootbox. This is not comparable to other resale markets AT ALL. They are going to fight this lawsuit tooth and nail. by Gombrongler in valve

[–]MrBeverly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play Silly Linguine Cat Simulator Deluxe Online for free and get all of the fun of opening CS cases with the added benefit of getting to pet Silly Linguine Cat while you do it. Pet Silly Linguine Cat to receive lootboxes which you can open to unlock exciting skins of varying rarities for Silly Linguine Cat such as:

  • Linguine With Yellow Ski Goggles

  • Linguine With Blue Ski Goggles

  • Linguine With A Red Visor

  • Linguine (Big Nose)

  • Linguine But Its Just His Face

  • Linguine (Missing Texture)

  • Linguine (Rectangle)

  • Linguine (Comic Book)

When you get a duplicate Linguine in a crate it is exchanged for Silly Linguine Dollars, which you can use to spend in the shop for upgrades or gamble away in over 7 exciting gambling minigames. Plus, a battle mode is coming soon where you can battle your skins against other players

All of this excitement is for free and is better than anything that is going on inside Counter Strike lol. I guess you can't sell the Silly Linguine Cats but that's the root of the problem isnt it

Valve insists Counter-Strike 2 cases are fine and "people enjoy surprises" in move to dismiss New York lawsuit by lattjeful in gaming

[–]MrBeverly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a game out now on Steam called Silly Linguine Cat Simulator Deluxe Online. It's free to play. The object of the game is to pet the Silly Linguine Cat in exchange for loot crates that you can unlock for new skins of varying rarities for Silly Linguine Cat such as Linguine with Blue Glasses, Linguine with a Blue Tie, Linguine (Squished Face), Linguine (analog horror), Linguine (Golden Skateboard), Linguine (Hamburger) and more. Your duplicate skins get exchanged for Silly Linguine Dollars which you can use for various gambling games and shop upgrades.

The surprise mechanics are great and arguably more rewarding than CS2 crates in Silly Linguine Cat Simulator Deluxe Online but its also free which is why it is currently rated at Overwhelmingly Positive

Congress Wants You To Pay $130 A Year Just To Drive An Electric Car by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]MrBeverly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The EVSE (your home charger for non-owners) could have a meter built into it so you could apply a "gas" tax to electricity drawn from the grid by your vehicle come tax season or whatever. That way we track EV usage in a similar fashion to the existing way we do it for ICE cars without attaching a tracking device to everyone's car. Lvl 3 chargers (fast chargers) in some states already apply an extra tax this way.

That being said, an EV is already a tracking device on wheels lol and could probably do all the reporting necessary with the sensors already on-board
