Does DDG still have the same upward trend that they used to before Brave caught on?

Minifree is between double to triple the price of the same laptop on eBay. Libreboot is strictly an ideological matter, it doesn’t help with privacy if software installed isn’t configured a certain way and also what software is installed.

BIOS is not the bacldoor is. Also, if you don’t build your on router, you can’t garauntee who your router is sending packets to. Also DNS makes a different. Libreboot does not provide the protection think it does.

It doesn’t help that Libreboot laptops are at least 10 years old. Those are some low resolution LCD screens compared the LED and full hi-def.

You should look at benchmarks in 2 weeks between the 770 and 4060 after it is released. Your 3600 is going to hurt performance if you buy really high end. In today’s money, the price of the 4060 matches the original price of the 1060 6GB.

Beyond a new GPU, I would suggest building a whole new computer. If I can partially guess, I would say the 4 core i3 121000 would beat your 3600. I do know that the 12100 matches the 6 core i7 8700K.

One option is buy the best GPU you have extra money to spend on, and then in a year buy build a Ryzen 8000 system when those get released and then put your new GPU in your next system.

To give you an idea about performance, the 4060 Ti beats the 1080 Ti.

You can live at ease with not having any debt weighing on you.

I was thinking maybe you could do a 4 core i3 13100, B660 board, 16GB DDR4, and RX 7600.

That would beat a 8700K and Radeon 580.

How old is your system? Would it not be inexpensive enough for you to build a new cheap system for a performance upgrade? What hardware do you need to have a fully functional system working again?

I use Austici because users can have 5 alias addresses, you can delete one and create a new alias, but has a limit 5.

Nobody has my true address, my main address, 100% everyone I email or give out my address are all different aliases. If one alias gets too much spam I delete and make a different one so spam doesn’t reach my inbox.

Why you said makes me think the number of votes is wholly irrelevent.

What is interesting or helpful is entirely subjective, it’s personal opinion. What is considered misinformation is entirely subjective. That makes me believe the voting count on a post means nothing for indicating the quality.

Considering how any majority of people typically react emotionally rather than have humility and respond with consistant logic, it seems personal opinion on a mass scale is an unreliable gage for quality of material.

If AMD wanted to get real serious real fast about rapidly improving drivers, could releasing Radeon driver source code under AGPLv3 help get mass development and fixes for drivers, while at the same time due to the license make the code untouchable for nVidia?

Receiver 2 looks very interesting. How do you find it to be playing with a floating gun?

I could see you being interested in Unrecord.

I would like to try Doom Eternal if it’s ever released on GOG. I bought the Wolfenstein reboots on GOG.

Metal Hdllsinger has a very good concent. I prefer a different style of metal, the game seems to favour commercial metal, the bigger names. It sounds like a lot of metalcore, hardcore, and melodic works.

Has there been remakes made? I thought those were only replicas and ports. I would like to see it if there have bedn true to life remakes.

Am I wrong to say that I think id Software would do the best remake from their original source?

Not with RiseuoVPN, they ask for donations in the app to run the free service.

Ok, I accept that ProtonVPN is open source. The free service is not anonymous, that’s a deal breaker for me.

I got each of the Boarderlands games from the free Epic giveways but I have never played thfough them. I will try them

I have not played Halo since I played the first one for a couple of hours in co-op

That’s on PC?

What part of what I said did you take to mean that I want insults?

Are suggesting there should be conformity without divergance?

You are correct aboutemphasis on shooters. I can’t get into sci-fi and RPG for me feel like a way to fill time without actual new gameplay happening.

I really don’t like walking around tying to find random items, in my opinion it’s too much of nothing

I have the Metro games, I’ve played each for several hours but never finished any of them.

I’m interested in Far Cry 6 but I’ve also seen strong criticisms of the gameplay so I don’t know if it’s worth buying.

If Proton cared about privacy for VPN for clients, they would remove the login requirement and make ProtonVPN an anonymous services.

If there are concerns about abuse for the network, that’s way the login, how could they figure that out without seeing people’s traffic.

I use RiseupVPN and CalyxVPN for being open source and anonymous.

Until ProtonVPN removes login in their free client, it is not an option.
