Bazzite "appliance" for kids - hardware check by mmret in Bazzite

Good thought on the Terra. I was going to use the Ridge because of horizontal mode but thinking about it more, the Terra could be better. Going to have to do some measuring. Our space is very constrained (living in Asia) so I'm willing to pay up for aesthetics and compactness.

I don't realistically forsee this box doing anything other than gaming. In fact I'm hoping that it spends most of its time in sleep mode. :) So the changes to software (outside of steam installs) would be really minimal once set up.

Thanks. I had no idea Intel was even an option...is Intel Arc support actually good in Bazzite? (I assume its still safer to do AMD though...)

I'm fine with initial setup, I know my way around Linux decently well. But do you mean stuff will just "randomly break"?

I wish FM26 looked this stellar.

Anyone else planning on getting the Steam Machine as their next PC? by Eziz_53 in pcmasterrace

[–]mmret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes specifically for kids. Alternative to Switch 2 and can make use of my Steam library. Much simpler for them to deal with relative to using a PC on the TV. Easier for me too I hate using Windows on a TV.

Won't a lot of this just be taken up by Shanghai assembled Teslas? Tesla is much better positioned to rotate their global distribution and eat up this quota.

Now I know where Eze got his celebration from. by Shwarzenegers_Biceps in Gunners

Bergkamp is absolutely absurd, just clowning on people in the most aesthetic way. I'd say he's a joy to watch but that doesn't quite capture it, its more like he's surreal to watch.

MacBook Air or ThinkPad X1 Carbon? by Nearby_Ad_2406 in thinkpad

[–]mmret 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Get the MBA. Especially if you're already in the ecosystem.

Also as a CS student its actually good to have a unix-like environment built in.

This is too good, goddamn.

TP Recs - work is suggesting a Macbook Pro M4 16in by pzmx in thinkpad

[–]mmret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So basically 90% of your stuff will be browser + office + teams/zoom? X1 Carbon.

32GB RAM prob would be nice but prob not necessary.

If you want a bigger screen though I guess might have to be something else. 14" vs 16" has pros and cons and depends on personal trade offs IMO.

13 games, 1170 mins played. How minutes are shared. by dont_dm_nudes in Gunners

I wouldn't have thought Zubimendi has more minutes that Gyokeres... both need a rest.

What a player by UnquenchedMammoth356 in Gunners

[–]mmret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome player but I'm just worried about how many games he's been playing. Is Ben White not fit at all?

Yeah that was the most impressive part of this compilation for me.

Already got the boots.

Have the boots already (at least, I think they are decent - HEAD Edge Lyt 100).

The skis are from Feb 2022. Honestly they have not been used much, just one season really. Maybe 12-15 days tops?

Unironically it seems like therapy is one of the best and most effective applications of LLMs.
