Linux or Windows, Tablets to Slimbooks, APU's to GPU's. All tech talk goes here.
I'm not familiar with OpenSUSE; will have to look into that. A buddy of mine recommended Mint as a mostly-no-pain Windows alternative but he's not a gamer so couldn't tell me about support for that distro.
Does Linux (both OpenSUSE and in general) generally play nice with AMD processors? I wouldn't expect it would but figure it can't hurt to ask.
I'm still hoping someone else in the PC market, particularly the gaming sector, sees this whole thing for the golden opportunity it is. Microsoft is cutting off it's left arm to spite its face and leaving literally millions of customers twisting in the wind. If Valve can get off their ass and develop a working PC version of their OS they could sweep in and play the hero while handily pocketing all the money Microsoft is leaving on the table.
Read MoreHey. That’s hate speech bro!!
I prefer the term “female adjacent cock gobbler” (FACG)
Thank you very much.
PS. I was going to go with Feminine Ass Gobbler, to maintain the integrity of the acronym. But my fingers literally refused to type it out - about myself.
So I’ll say it about YOU. FAG!
I got so pissed I bought a Mac Cube.
Bro, that's like getting so sick of women's shit that you become a gay faggot.
I totally get the reason behind it, but you're still a gay faggot.
have some vcards!

@Bozza In didn't see @woodsmoke for a bit. He was going to switch, it looks like he is stuck on intallation.
Cappy had his vid about win and Linux lately and he is so frigging excited about upgrade he was on about it each time turning on his cam.
You can some tools info on my blog.

Oh dude. Do NOT even get me started on this shit.
I had the same problem. I got so pissed I bought a Mac Cube.
This shit makes my blood boil.
Now that Windows 10 has reached end of support, and sadly my PC does not have TPM on the chip, so it's not supported by Windows 11.
I'll be damned if I'm gonna upgrade a perfectly working and fast PC for the sake of Windows. So, I've decided to run Linux full time on my PC.
I've been running OpenSUSE for the past 2 or 3 weeks now, and it's fantastic. Aside from a little hiccup getting my Nvidia GPU drivers installed, everything works flawlessly.
Even games now have great support thanks to Valve/Proton. That really was the last reason I had to keep using Windows. Historically it was always the case that everything bar games worked on linux, and if you wanted to play games you were forced to run Windows.
Now, I can full time daily drive linux and do everything I want to, and I doubt I will ever be going back to Windows.
If anyone else is in the same boat I would really recommend switching to Linux. Don't stay on Win 10, as it will no longer receive security updates and you will get pwned over the coming months as vulnerabilities are discovered and exploited.

Been a while, but thought it's about time I use my homelab to run a Tor relay node.
Not gonna run an exit node for obvious reasons, but I can at least support the network with a relay.
I used to upgrade my PC every ~5 years. I've now had this current one for 10 years,
Yahh the initial build from A budget build at $900. Friend B said hang on can you afford another couple hundred bucks? by spending another 100 on Ram, CPU and the mother board each, he said I'd be set for 10 years out.
So maybe grab yourself an SSD or a classic HDD for extra storage - but that's also something you can do later down the line.
Friend A originally had 1tb of ssd and 4 of hdd but frie d B steared me away from anything that is mechanical storage.
Also factor in a Windows license or whatever, unless you're gonna run linux.
Since I'm semi computer illiterate, it was recommended to have both windows (to trouble shoot/game on) and Linux (I'm familiar with GIMP and other open source software) for working.
Again, I am anti technology and am partially doing this to tighten up one of my weaknesses.
