From another post.

CircleCityCon 9.0

Tools to promote or demo biohacking

I know I suggested to be succinct, but I am packing everything including the kitchen sink this weekend, so forgive me I have a lot to mention I will plan to edit this post many times, and will be adding picture and other content as it becomes available in the packaging process (I would break this into multiple posts but forum would limit me) I’ll be going to CircleCityCon this weekend with @init6 Im planning on being the guy talking to interested but don’t know where to go or …

F**k, 2 days without visiting the forum this weekend. Way too busy to even think about it. Too bad for the Devotee badge

[Pilgrimsmaster]

At least you know when your Day 1 starts, I guess

[Eriequiet]

Too soon

[mrln]

Wanna see something sad?

I have a broken xg3

Any ideas what I can do with it? Like some funny stuff?

Using it as a fridge magnet is the only thing that comes in my mind

Edit:

It broke due to human error. Nothing was wrong with that thing.

Snapped really clean.

Ah and its a xg3 v2

R.I.P.

[Backpackingvet]

Just superglue it back together.

I thought the same and was amazed when they actually included the bloody jacket as a nod.

Not funny, but a good fidget toy to play and show off with your other bio-magnets

@mrln

Any ideas what I can do with it?

Donate it to @Eriequiet, so he can show it off as a cut-away at the next convention?

[Eriequiet]

[ODaily]

(If anyone can suggest a good rig to play CSGO, let know. I’m pretty computer illiterate)

Have you considered a Steam Deck?

I don’t have any experience with them but

The anti🚫-derailment🚃 & thread🧵 hijacking🔫 thread🧵

Anyone else seen the Steam Deck by Valve? Seems like a pretty good deal for the pure hardware, $399 for the base model for a handheld Linux gaming PC. There’s 2 other storage tiers, 256GB and 512. The 256GB and 512 models both have NVMe for storage, with the 512GB having the fastest SSD. Apparently the new SteamOS is just Arch-based. Really curious what else will be able to be done with it, since it’s just a handheld full PC. It just uses type-C USB, completely open. Can use standard docking s…

I’ve thought of it. But when it comes down to it, I have a switch if I really want to game on the go.

I don’t really want to game on the go. Also, I can hook an Xbox controller to a computer. And a desktop would give me significant more access.

I know building a computer is usually better, but I would buy an Alienware (or equivalent, and im considering buying one based off the name alone.) if anyone knows of one. I’m too lazy to read exactly which parts I need.

@Backpackingvet

I’m too lazy to read exactly

Guess I also need to work on some stuff. Ha.

@Backpackingvet

Yeah, I also have a Switch (Modded) otherwise I would likely grab a Steam Deck, I am not across the deck and accessories, but if it is like a Switch and has a dock to play on the big screen, THAT is a pretty good option.

Alienware are great and you will spend a bit of coin on one, there are alternatives in the gaming PC realm of course.

What about a console?

[Backpackingvet]

@Pilgrimsmaster

console

I have an Xbox 1.

I really just want to buy a computer finally.

I can internet
I can game
I can computer things

[Pilgrimsmaster]

@Backpackingvet

I can computer things

Yeah. Got ya!

If you find CSGO game info, it should tell you minimum computer requirements.

That’s where I would reccomend you start your “puter” search.
Remember to future proof yourself and find any games you think you may want to play, and /or check that your PC is capable of upgrades without needing to rebuild the whole rig to do so.

[ThePolishedTurd]

Have you thought about what resolution you’re wanting to play at? That significantly impacts what hardware you’ll need for playing games at decent framerates. These days middle of the road hardware should be able to run most games at 60fps or more at 1440p.

It has been a year or two since I’ve looked at where the hardware on the market is currently sitting and what the pricing is like. Defs shop around for other prebuilt companies. Their pricing can vary by quite a lot.
