long time lurker first post lol latley i've been thinking about what makes some multiplayer communities great and others exhausting. in MOBAs, people learning a new role seem to have a rough time. is muting everyone by default the answer, or are there better…

Okay, I'm confused. Playing a new open world game on my RTX 3070 with 8 GB is smooth, but every sooo often: im using ultra txetures, the in game VRAM meter says Im under the limit, but clearly something goes over. is the meter wrong, or is something else…

so annoyed rn debate prompt: subscriptions are fairer than one time purchases because software needs constant updates and secruity fixes. I half believe it. Then my password manager raised its price again and I started looking for open source alternatives.…
