Ive swapped around but for now im good on Arch, I like the AUR too much and tbh it does what I need (other distros are great and I installed Debian on my families computers but for me I use Arch).

To be fair the one time I did manage to push 24gb it was a stress test, outside normal workflow tho I generally dont use more than 8gb of ram

I have 32gb of ram on my desktop and genuenly im not sure if ive ever used more than 24gb of ram

To be fair I know where my Mayor lives, he lives at East End Ave at 88th St :3

These devices were never gonna gain mass appeal, it’s simply too expensive to develop for in exchange for a significantly smaller userbase

Im not a fan of the severe security issues and just how broken sandboxing is

Yeah no I understand so here are a few suggestions, their prices, advantages, and disadvantages:

Framework 16: This is the most powerful laptop they offer and has the option for an all AMD build (great for Linux). Specifically you can get this with a 7700S and a 350, that should be enough for any workflow or even decent gaming (keep in mind its below recommended so you may need to reduce some settings or play at a lower resolution). The way pricing is going these days and depending on how you configure it you can spend anywhere from $2,000 to $3,000.

Disadvantages: Its not a Linux machine so you wont receive any additional support, its very upgradable means its build quality can at times feel inconsistent, and lastly keep in mind this system doesnt get upgrades very often and new parts are inconsistent. The AMD GPU they offer is still the original one (they did a Nvidia option but Nvidia is a headache) and they have a new CPU option but its still not as consistent as their 13 model.

Distro: I personally recommend pairing this with Fedora KDE edition

Gazelle (System76): This laptop well exceeds the minimum specs for silent hill f, the best part is it comes preinstalled with pop_os which is maintained by system76 themselves so you are practically guaranteed a premium experience. It comes with a 5050 which normally would be a pain to set up but they set it up for you. Great software support all around and cosmic is an amazing desktop. It costs around 2k can be more if you want more ram/storage but the default is fine. Overall the build quality seems good and its not particularly large or thick. It also runs on their own open firmware (coreboot based) which gives it some incredible boot speeds.

Disadvantages: Still uses a barrel jack for charging, GPU is not as powerful as the Framework 16, has Nvidia quarks, and is not as repairable or customizable as framework.

TUXEDO Stellaris 16 AMD: Great option if you live in Europe but im not very familiar with it

Ok yeah that does give me a good idea but what general price range are you thinking about? Also does it have to be a laptop? I can find a desktop that can play basically anything for a good price.

Let me clearify why I’m reccomending you get a desktop, silent hill f is extremely demanding. I mean the reccomend GPU is a 2080Ti or a 6800XT. Especially right now that’s gonna be expensive but I can guarantee if you want that on a laptop prepare to pay several grand, on a desktop however I can find options at or below a grand (keep in mind used because PC prices are insane rn).

What is this game? And depending on your needs the T480 should be more than good enough

Here’s my state of the union address:

Shits fucked and reactionary ideology is killing us all, we either end the capitalists or they will end us.

Tbh the simplistic props and extremely basic CGI is arguably what gives TOS its charm, it feels almost like a play with hand crafted props that are clearly props. It makes the series feel more lighthearted and silly (in a good way).

As a transfem I am always looking for the bear :3

(NV reference)

Limited Linux support (no repo or flatpak pkgs, not even aur) and tbh im not so sure how long they will continue to exist

Nah the best movie is Kung Fury

I love politics in gaming, I loved Fallout 3, NV,4 (I still enjoyed it but to a lesser extent), Cyberpunk, and Outer Worlds 1/2. I love it when a game has multiple factions, I love when you get to really understand the politics of a fictional world, and I love stories involving politics.

That makes absolutely no sense, we have more than enough activity on lemmy without reddit trash. We don’t need a million posts a second we need a steady stream of high quality content made by real people.
