    1. I dare

    2. I like the angular multi texture and led strip styling of the original PS4. It was distinct and can be identified just from a glance.

    Meanwhile the slim is just a featureless box with fillet edges and a trench. At a glance its difficult to tell what it is until you see the PlayStation logo.

    While I am not a fan of the PS5’s design its at the minimum distinct, and striking. I just wish that it wasn’t wider than a george foreman grill original PS3



  • The brillants of Creality’s printers both the Ender 3 and 5, is that they use off the shelf parts. From its heatbed to its nozzle and stepper motors.

    Which means that if something breaks or wears out, a replacement is $0.20 from Amazon.

    The problem with Creality is quality control. Everything that I bought from Creality either broke in a few months, needed upgrades or came broken from factory. This isn’t just their printers its their laser cutters too.

    However because they break they are excellent learning printers. While it may be tempting to print the biggest thing, I would advise a smaller printer like the Ender 3. It was hard to level 200mm leveling 350mm won’t be easy.

    That said I think which printer you get should depend on what you want to do with it.

    If you are more interested in modeling and cad design than a low maintenance printer like a Prusa would be best.

    If you want to tinker with the printer itself: then an Ender is perfect since you can break it to your hearts content and fix it yourself.

    Otherwise you don’t know: get the cheapest recommended printer around $350-$400 and use it til it breaks. Either you’ll know what you want or break it and you’ll get a good idea on what type of printer you need.

    @madewithlayers and @makersmuse on YouTube is a good starting point






  • I wouldn’t worry too much about not knowing this. The steam deck is still relatively new and proton/dxvk is improving at such a blinding pace compared to the rest of Linux that my head is still spinning.

    From my limited understanding, because of Arch’s rolling releases and Valve basing the steam deck on Arch. DXVK the compatibility layer for DX games to vulkan is managed by the distro. How this works is magic is still magic to me. I also think graphic drivers gets pushed on arch early too, since it’s a rolling release.

    However I am in complete agreement, Arch isn’t beginner friendly, I personally like Manjaro and find it friendlier, but that’s like having a pet cat, and it’s a Bob cat. Sure it’s not a Lion, but it’s not a Kitty.

    This has been going on forever in the GT series. Like the limited time cars in GT5.

    That said a lot of these mechanics were designed for a time when other game modes existed that could compensate for them. Like in GT5 where you can “train” an AI to race as their race chief.

    I named mine The Stig. And just let him race until it was so good that I could leave it alone at a 12 hour race event and went to sleep. When I woke up I had enough cash and bought a Lamborghini and a Ferrari.
