This is how I feel playing the more recent Oregon Trail on my similar setup, but that game is zen as FUCK. Man cannot live on Cyberpunk alone.
This game feels like the perfect game to be cross platform (save game) and I definitely can play it in almost, if not all my devices but I haven’t started because I am suffering of choice paralysis lol.
Phone for me. The controls aren’t involved enough to require a keyboard mouse. Imho anyways
32 GB RAM. Decent I guess. 🤷♂️
Nope!
“I know I never get it, but the game and dev both say it really is 1 in 4! So surely I should buy this!”
Nope!
🤡
“I’m literally a fool, what’s your excuse?”
Man, fuck that joker. 😭
You can finally open 3 tabs in chrome.
More than 1 is outrageous.
I have a medium end gaming PC with 64gb of ram and a decent (aging) 5700xt. My favorite PC game right now is Hades 😎
I like the graphics of new games, but every time I try to play one I have to agree to a 50 page privacy policy and/or create a new account. I usually just cancel that and go back to my classic games that you just open and start playing.
Damn, 64GB? Let me guess, you use CAD software for your work?
Also have 64GB and its mostly just because my last build had 32GB DDR3 RAM, so I wanted number go up. And microcenter bundle.
You’re just ahead of the curve cause my DDR3 system originally had 8GB of DDR3, later upgraded to 16GB. Skipped DDR4 entirely and went straight to 32GB of DDR5 6000 in my current system.
Mine originally had 16GB, but with DDR4’s replacement of it, prices eventually dropped quite a bit. And I was playing a game with a really bad memory leak issue and poor optimization, so it the 32gb was actually useful.
I use docker to run a number of containers and sometimes play around with ollama.
I certainly don’t see much activity in my swap.
I also have 64GB, and it is used exclusively for internet tabs
Wait is that guy even 18? That’s a mature game
Hard Hard Disk
Does that imply a Soft Soft Disk
Hard Hard Disk Plus, if you don’t mind.
Holid Hate Drive
Horrid Hate Drive could be a band, maybe cybergrind
What an excellent video, I can’t believe I haven’t seen it before! Thanks for sharing.
I swear to god my disk is so hard right now
Yes, once you build a new PC, you can only play demanding games! Thats how we all do it
That’s me, but Tetris.
Ok but Tetris Effect, fully cranked, 4K, 120.
Now that has got to be an experience.
I recently got balatro working on the pi 4. Its kinda amazing what will run the game :)
Balatro is the new Doom?

No, but you can run Doom on Balatro.
Been kind of addicted to this game the past few days. Though so far I’ve only beaten the red, green, blue and nebula decks.
You picked it up faster than I did. It took me about a week of daily play to get my first deck win.
I’ve been curious about the hype for this game. From what I know it seems like a card game like poker. The popularity of it must mean it’s quite engaging though.
Im very curious as well. Was looking into it and came to the same conclusion; it’s just a poker with weird rules and some nicer graphics. Its advertised as a deck building game. Now I don’t know what a deck builder game is, but imagine something like pokemon or magic the gathering? But what’s the fun in combining this with poker? And isn’t that more fun with real, physical cards and friends?
It’s poker solitaire - you have 24 blinds to beat (getting 4 played hands attempts [two pair, four of a kind, etc), and 2 discards of up to 5 cards, per blind). The hand played plus the cards in the hand result in a multiplication formula to give you your point value. It’s pretty straight forward.
Every 3rd blind is a boss, which has a special debuff of some kind (like all diamond cards adre debuffed[provide no points and do not trigger special abilities), or 1 in 7 chance for a card in your hand to be dealt face down)
You beat the point target of each blind, and after every blind you go to the store to buy additional cards or things that modify your deck, like a tarot card that allows you to turn 3 cards into spades (making it easier to play flushes), or increase a two select cards by 1 rank (so, turning 2x 6s into 7s meaning you now have 6x 7s in your deck and 2x 6s, making it easier to hit 4 of a kind on 7s).
Then there jokers on top of it, which have even more crazy effects than modify your hand point values
The first 3 blinds are 300, 450, and 600 points
The 24th blind is 100,000 points.
So you need to develop your deck and jokers at the shop after each blind to continue to make your hands played more and more valuable, because that 100k blind isn’t that far away.
At its core it’s just a fun arithmetic game (a default pair hand is 20 points and a 2x multiplier. Then you get a joker that says +4 to multiplier of played hand contains a pair. So now when you play a pair you get 20 pts at a 6x multiplier).
It’s as simple or as complicated as you want it to be.
A lot of the fun comes from your own personal challenges. Like, just starting a run and getting a spectral card that turns your hand on to all 8s so you just go “fuck it, I’m gonna try to turn my hand into all 8s and do a 5 of a kind run”.
Oh yeah, and secret hands too: 5 of a kind, Flush House (full house with all cards of the same suit), and Flush Five (five of a kind, all same suit)
You might like it, you might not. I personally can’t see why people say it’s so addicting, but it does keep me busy on my train ride to work.
It has lots of modifiers and rules and your hand is a dynamic deck of cards (not just 52 default cards) and so you get the dynamic gameplay and synergizing strategies of a game like Slay the Spire.
I got it on my phone, and it has taken up more of my life than I care to admit. It’s similar to slay the spire. Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys strategy games.
Yeah, it’s a lot of fun. It’s like poker, but you get to modify your deck and how many chips you earn by drawing special cards between rounds.
The goal is trying to break the game to pass an ever-increasing chips/points threshold. If you fail, your run is over.
I don’t think consumer grade 16TB SSDs exist. At least not as a single module. Do they?
Also, who the hell measures RAM size in gigabits?
ISPs?
People who don’t understand the difference between GB and Gb.
It’s a comic.
And if you think that is going to stop me from nitpicking, you’re sorely mistaken! 😤
It stood out to me because the rest of the specs are realistic-ish (if we consider that to be 32GB of RAM).
8TB M.2 SSDs are a thing and you can fit 4 into many high-end motherboards. You can even put them into RAID 0 if you want them to look as a single drive in the OS. Comic does not claim it is a single module.
Ok, so you confirm that I’m not mistaken and you can’t currently have a single module 16TB SSD? AFAIK, even 8TB is pushing it.
And I treat it as a single module in the comic because it says “16TB SSD” singular, as opposed to something like “16TB worth of SSDs”.
You can get 16TB, or even more, but not consumer grade, I can confirm that. But I have seen MSI laptops with 2 SSDs in RAID 0 advertised as one number singular in summary, just like in the comic, since it makes no difference to the user.
Funnily enough, the weirder part is actually 25TB HDD. There are 24TB HDDs and even 26TB HDDs but to my knowledge, there is no single module 25TB HDD. And with that capacity, it can’t even be any reasonable RAID setup. The only factorization is 5x5 and 5TB HDD are also not really a thing. That number is the nonsensical one.
