    I’m not unhappy with microsoft, i just don’t really care, as long as all my games and programs work. As another comment said I might install linux on my current gaming laptop once I get a new desktop and see how that goes

    As for the games I have a steam deck and all my games work out of the box, is that indicative of how thing would work out on linux?





  • Get yourself checked if you think you might have something

    But one of my favorite things I saw a post say (and I’m paraphrasing)

    “Everyone forgets things, everyone has trouble understanding, everyone has issues focusing. Everyone also pees but when you pee 60 times a day you go see a doctor”

    Another thing I’ve seen people say is they definitely think they might be on a spectrum, but would getting tested, and by extension medication, actually help. For some the answer was no because they already had coping mechanisms and strategies that worked

    But like I said if you think medication could help, see your doctor and get that beautiful brain drugged up

    I was saying to my discord group as 2 if them got the 2077 game recently and I got back into after a few years

    But the thing that always got was modders making V (player) look like a terminator when the only cybernetics we see are face and eye cosmetics, the totally not a usb in the wrist, and any arm cyberware such as the mantis blades or rocket launcher system. Everything else is pretty much below the skin

    But cyber psychosis is a think and I feel like I’m screaming at my screen “DID YOU LEARN NOTHING FROM THAT QUEST LINE” while modders become a machine

    my take away from the cyber psycho questline is

    Yes there is implant rejection just like real life where patients’ bodies can reject implants, with cyber psychosis being and extreme case of that but not the big idea here

    But the big take away is usually it’s a ship of Theseus, where the person who replaced their body with metal is NOT the same person, usually leading to an identity crisis or depression

    I think an in game text even say a vast majority of cases are not the hyper violent criminals or ex soldiers with ptsd and military implants on the news. But the majority are people who maybe have a synthetic liver as their own implant but don’t feel it’s theirs

    And I kinda get that, im a type 1 diabetic and I don’t see the insulin pump as part of me or my body, just a machine that has a vital function. I couldn’t imagine that ideology applied to my whole body what that would do to my mental health and self image

    Idk the who self identity in cyberpunk (as a genre) always sticks out to me, can’t remember where I heard the quote but: you can be anyone, but is that someone you?
