#Desktop PC

PC update time!!

My GPU (Nvidia GTX 970) needed a replacement, which meant a new motherboard meaning a new CPU and memory. So, costly, ... but here's the replacement:

AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT :))

Out with the old, in with the new

My biggest change in my brain is however the monitor set up. I had an old screen, on the left side, as a second monitor. Now, with Ephron's old monitor, I have set my main screen on the left.

(still need to tweak the colour settings)

I'll get used to it quickly I hope!

But yay fancy PC again!! Even the computer store owner said it was a very good choice :D

(the old computer parts are going to a friend who'll reuse them seeing as they still work fine. we just have too many outdated PC's ourselves already)

Hot tip for desktop pc users which sounds insane but is unfortunately true: due some shit coding on Amazon Prime Video (Prime Video specifically; not the regular Amazon shopping site), even just browsing the homepage without selecting anything to play can cause your computer to permanently freeze and lockup in a way to which even ctrl+alt+del won't respond, forcing you to do a hard reset (which is bad for obvious reasons, especially if you are like me and running a RAID 1 setup).

This issue has nothing to do with your pc's performance abilities or settings and everything to do with Amazon's backend video software (yes, even if you're not on a screen where it's actively playing anything).

Basically, avoid using Prime video on your pc at all costs and use it on a smart tv or mobile device instead as the app doesn't seem to suffer from the same issues as the desktop website (because it's a plugin program).

Amazon seems to have been aware of this issue for years and doesn't care to fix it.

I guess I'm weird then as I prefer desktops (I have my own personal desktop) and I barely use my phone, but that's because it's an iphone 5c and can't do much nowadays. Never used a chromebook, didn't realise you can't even acess the local files.

You know, it's a good thing that this autism gives me way too much knowlege and interest into technology, as as the years go by, I'll look even more advanced day by day just 'cause I use linux and know how to install stuff in the terminal.

this can't be true can it

After a month of experimenting, installing various distros on my laptops and my little MC server box I somewhat impulsively bought a 1TB SSD, put Nobara on a stick, shrunk a secondary windows partition on my big HDD, and officially starting dual booting Linux on my PC with it as my main OS on the system. It was rather scary but I still have Windows as a back up and I've actually made myself extremely comfortable with my setup so far! :D

It is currently in its early stages but I've got my vital programs on, figured out some extra customization stuff, lost plenty of time just looking at the various toys I installed on the terminal like cava, and now I'm thinking about properly doing it up! I should probably get a different wallpaper for my second monitor as bellow Firefox it is the same as the my main screen on the right, but eh- I'll do it later.

So uh- I guess I'm, fully a part of the Linux gang?
