Are you guys into raspberry pi or other sbc doing projects?

1.1k on a PC, it was about that time. My PC I'm using now is almost 10 years old, and has random memory/Blue issues, I've already replaced the ram a couple times through the years.

What are yall's thoughts on Windows 11? I saw somebody in here recommend staying on Windows 10 but why would somebody do that when support on it ends soon?

 

[Mister_DoItNice]

I’ve seen all the discourse about Windows 10 vs 11 online… maybe I’m just not in the weeds deep enough but that shyt makes absolutely no difference to me. I’ve been on 11 since it first became an option as an upgrade.

I've been on Windows 11 since 2021. I like it tbh.

 

[Ruck]

Same. I been on windows 11 for awhile. Definitely more intrusive programs but I don't care about anything and I ain't got shyt to hide.

Its not your ram and I bet your processor is done

I regularly use NanoPi SBCs for networking. I had a Pi at the TV but it's easily replaced by a modded chromebox if I really had to use it.

I kinda just use the old Pi3 to test stuff at this point. I'll try to do Home Assistant with my unused Pi W, or turn it into a pseudo Gameboy.

Disable the Steam Desktop Configuration in Steam's settings or exit Steam completely before launching the game

Still having the same issue.

I can't launch the game without steam opening

its happening every 5 minutes, no idea what it could be

edit:fixed, it was a malware running in the background every 5 min

What controller do you guys use on PC?

Years ago on a different PC, the official Xbox ones worked great. But now, they don't work properly wirelessly (massive dead zones & slowness). I switched to a Gamesir wired, but it died after a while.

Then I went with an 8BitDo wired and it just stopped working today. I haven't done any major troubleshooting yet, but I'm annoyed.
