Shortage of skilled workers? Better drive them off even harder, I guess

I don't use VRR, but I meet the rest of your criteria

Electron apps were the biggest pain pont - I would be typing in discord and there was noticeable lag and letters would disappear until I have several characters beyond them. I worked around this by using discord on their website in a browser tab.

Not sure which update resolved this, but it's now working as I expect it to, so I think if you choose to use a Nvidia GPU, you should have an okay time. I would just say to consider a beefier AMD GPU as well, since they tend to have much better driver support in Linux

Climate change is watching crazy storm videos until you're the one recording on your phone.

Yes. A CPU has both physical cores and logical threads. These are both considered logical CPUs.

For example, if you ran cat /proc/cpuinfo on Linux you would see something like this (First processor is processor 0)

processor : 23

model name : AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor

So your 4 core CPU likely has hyperthreading and would meet the requirements for Microsoft recall

Looks like an ISA card to me - might be RAM, but I'm not confident at all

The biggest issue is breaking the habit - when people are building new habits, some portion are going to make healthier decisions (Though you're right, some will continue doing the next lowest effort option)

I went onto their subscription page because I couldn't believe you. Not only are you right, they block you from just hitting the back button to exit out.

It's just a way to do layoffs while trying to fight off the unemployment claims.

Considering they think putting rocks on top of your playing equipment changes the sound, their work has negative value.

I think the title is from the perspective of the (adult) dog. "I made this, I trust you to handle my young, but please be careful"

600 British pounds is ~771 USD If only new parts were picked, following the https://www.logicalincrements.com/ guide good tier

GPU: RX 6600 $200

CPU: i5 12400F $148

HSF: Peerless $35

Mobo: ASRock B660 Steel $120

RAM: 8GB DDR4 $24

Hard Drive: 2TB $52

M.2 SSD: 512GB $42

PSU: SeaSonic 500W (B) $60

Case: Pure Base 500 $80

Personally, I would change this to get rid of the Hard drive to free up ~$50, putting the money into a higher capacity M.2 if needed

I think you would probably be looking at 1080P gaming, and I don't think this built will be super upgradeable (DDR4 RAM, Intel CPU) but I think you would be able to play games at a reasonable framerate
