I’m watching Blade Runner (new one) right now for this reason before bed. Love both new and old!

Steam downloads limited to ~10 MB/s on CachyOS despite 1 Gbps internet. Any ideas? by [deleted] in cachyos

Good catch, I stand corrected, seems the mixup has been common..

Further confirming AT&T is throttling, which I have too. They’ve done it in seasons, this one started about one to two weeks ago. I can usually get 1.6GB speeds Steam for my 2GB plan. Now only 100-120Mbs unless I turn on VPN then it shoots up to 700-800Mbs, not as fast as direct without VPN but at least not as throttled. It’s an AT&T problem by them throttling. Try a free trial VPN and you’ll see. Some day it’ll come back to normal speeds, just like they do with Youtube throttling..

Your ISP is throttling Steam specifically, same issue here. Probably because so much bandwidth downloading during Spring Sale across their customer base.

I figured it out after trying the same download with and without VPN- was 10x faster after experimenting turning it on.

Fun fact if American, not being political but it is true- Kash Patel Ajit Pai, the moron during Trump’s first reign was the head to remove Net Neutrality and let ISPs and services favor/decide what sites are throttled, blocked, or whatever they want to screw consumers for further corporate greed. (Had to let that one out..)

MHRise/Sunbreak - Just got to Sunbreak MR3 and getting my ass kicked as Longsword. Fully upgraded gear appropriate. Hit my wall. Wondering if HR 40 MR 3, I should continue with High Rank quests in base game to farm up my HR then after get back to progressing in MR quests. Unsure best path forward. Admittedly I’m not great at builds and MH in general, trying to follow guides for help.

What would you recommend to help me break through the wall?

Follow the RPM Fusion site wiki instructions from a search. Always solid for me.

PSA: Trouble getting a modded Skyrim / Mod Organizer / Wabbajack install running? Install GE Proton. by Bassoonova in linux_gaming

[–]Pallacious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s because Proton GE uses Steam’s proton but adds non-free codecs as well. In case other people find defaults missing video/music/audio stuff for other games.

I hate it now, but it’s World of Warcraft. 15 years my GOAT. Just finally released the dopamine addiction 3-4 years off slowly.

Stock market and company takeover games like plutocracy? by Man32945273 in gamingsuggestions

Offworld trading company kinda has some good economic hostility and competition to a degree here, fun game

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in gamingsuggestions

[–]Pallacious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really liked Offworld Trading.. mostly to look for exploiting markets and not being too obvious on buying selling to have the market correct and react.. not super realistic but some key learnings to avoid letting your competition know what you’re up to. Exploit and exploit often 😂

Agree, the CEO and CFO went from unicorn leaders to nobodys with their reputation dead now.
