  • Most ‘gaming’ chairs are trash material covering shipping foam - garbage.

    There are exceptions though. A couple years ago I bought the least gaming looking full leather seat from noble, same foam as good car seats, leather very good, and got it on sale for a silly price. 2 years later it still looks the same as day 1 and the foam hasn’t started to deform yet, I work in it all day.

    All my back pain from previous shit chairs was gone in a week too. After that I’d have been happy to pay double.

    As in most markets, there are always diamonds in the rough, the hardest part is just identifying them.




  • Been running Linux as primary is for 10-15 years now, used to distro hop a lot, often just because. Life is too busy for that now but I last installed fedora (KDE, I always run KDE out of preference) about 5 years ago and I’m really impressed. The system is very current but its always remained stable for me and upgrading from version to version is smoother than normal security patches on win 10 which I still run for CAD.

    Are you all up to date? Tbh I do agree with the other post, ASUS have terrible QA and don’t care.




  • Being in your 30s really means getting to grow up though the golden era of gaming. Real life gets in the way now so I just have the games I liked, maybe buy one or 3 (non AAA) titles a year, and that’s good for me. I’m still young enough to be confident I’m not being an old fart when I say, there really is barely anything worth your time or money in the industry anymore. There are of course exceptions, but man, its rough.

    I hope it all fails and has to start again before ‘valve, and EA company’ becomes a possible timeline
