I manage the few linux servers at my company. I use a windows laptop to ssh to my servers. Windows for me is fine, but I do very little on it outside of ssh or emails. However, I would never use windows outside of this.

Same. Proxy detected and will not let me check it out. Seems like a cool idea though.

There is nothing stopping you from putting the effort in. Why don't you pick some hardware and start working on building support for it?

Fair point. Hadn't followed recently, but that suggestion makes sense. I would personally buy used, but I totally understand others not wanting to and buying the newer chips would make the most sense there.

I would totally be down for this. I am currently reading zero trust networks (2nd edition), but this is mainly due to the company I am working for looking to open up some web apps to the public internet. I am also reading Net Zeros and Ones to look more at data sanitizing.

Then fun reading is 2001 a space Odyssey.

You could go either way. But with the shit going on with the 13th and 14th gen Intel chips, I personally would rather go the AMD route. I would actually probably go with 5000 series chips with ddr4 ram for the savings. It would probably still be a huge upgrade for me, and it would be overall a much cheaper upgrade. If you are gaming primarily, the 5800x3d is still an amazing chip for gaming when it comes price to performance.

Completely agree! When this bad boy gets retired it is getting disassembled and placed in a shadow box for display.

The steamdeck seriously changed my perspective of what power I need for a computer and convinced me that I can continue to run my 1080ti for at least a few more years.

I think my job requires me to work in too many different areas. So although I can work in several languages and dev stacks, I am probably only a 2 or 3 or less out of 5 in all of them. However, network and server infrastructure, and cybersec/opsec I am probably more in the realm of a 4-4.5.

I have been completely hooked on this game. Night manor so far has been my favorite and I cherried that on. But Bushido blade has been great too. Lately I have been bashing my head against star waspir, and it is so much fun.

Vainger is also really cool.

So far everything I have played on this game has been great.

This opinion is unpopular among all but one of my friends, but I actually find tank controls to be fairly intuitive. If I haven't played one in a while it takes me about 10 minutes to adjust, but after that, it is second nature for me. But I did play a ton of RE as a kid. Maybe that's why.

The issue I find with the surface is that it just isn't lapable. Using it on my lap is nearly impossible. Good on a desk though.
