Switched from the Corsair Dark Core to Log G502, no regrets!

Logitech’s G-hub software is miles better than Corsair’s iCue software

That last sentence almost made me spit out my coffee, kudos to that

What is there to take seriously? It’s a community vote on what games people liked across various categories. If the outcome of the vote isn’t to your liking, accept that your opinion differs from them and move on. There’s nothing inherently wrong with that.

It’s right there in the middle, 01001270623 smh

Thank fuck Covid didn’t have symptoms as horrific as ebola

When I bought a Dell G7 around 5 years ago (1060, i7) I got it open box at Best Buy, which saved a good bit of money as opposed to buying it completely new. Haven’t kept up with gaming laptops in a bit, as I upgraded to a desktop recently, but if you go down the laptop route, looking into open box offers at retailers is worth it imo.

LMAO

I work with C# daily and even I didn’t realize I made a pun there xD

Maybe it’s just embedded in my subconscious at this point…

Godot is a good example of a free and well-developed open source game engine. It’ll probably see a sharp rise in adoption following this controversy from Unity.

Oh yeah, I reckon there’s a good number of extensions for it too, probably something I should check out as well in the future.

And yeah, it’s definitely a tradeoff of sorts. Denying a browser or search engine access to all personal information, including GPS, might lead to irrelevant results, so I imagine it’s a matter of giving as little information as possible for the maximum relevance in results. GPS is one of those compromises I’ll make as well, though only at the zip code level most of the time, since most apps/sites don’t need to know my precise location.

While I do try and stick to my trusted sites as much as possible, the things I often want to find online are beyond the scope of the sites I have bookmarked. Though bookmarking more sites that I trust and opting to use them over a regular search seems like a good habit to get into

I tend to like the “bangs” feature that DuckDuckGo offers when it’s set as my browser’s default. Basically by putting !+prefix it automatically redirects your search to a different website. !g will do Google, !b will do Bing, !yt will do YouTube, etc… And it’s quite extensive. Currently, DDG claims to have 13,564 bangs you can use, so if there’s some website with a search bar, chances are it can be banged from DDG.

The search engine from my use over the last 4-6 years generally provides me with “good enough” search results and I enjoy the interface itself, as well as the sorting options when searching images. Every now and then, if i don’t get the results I want, I can just bang a different search engine (I’m just starting to realize the repercussions of using “bang” as a verb…).
