Buy a used Optiplex.
Gets you an acceptable case, mobo, CPU, RAM, and probably SSD for about $200. Add a used 3050/3060/4060 GPU and an upgraded PSU.
It’s not gonna knock your socks off, but it gets you going without over-spending and you can carry some of that forward when you upgrade later.

9·20 days agoGamehub Lite is pretty wild. It does take some fiddling, but it’s amazing how well (and relatively easily) you can get x86 Windows games to run on a $200 ARM Android device.
I’m 12/13 so far on getting games to work at an acceptable level.
Inexplicably, Vampire Survivors causes the entire device to crash. I guess they pull some pretty silly memory tricks to keep that game responsive with potentially hundreds of thousands of projectiles, so maybe it’s not so surprising.

2·23 days agoSo what, this is the second time in two days that I’ve seen a post from this blog and I’m like “yeah, I mostly agree with your argument, but I think you’re claiming to defeat much bigger opponents than your argument actually strikes”.
What am I supposed to make of that? It seems like they’re just engagement-farming at this point. The over-reach is obnoxious.
