the games will still run at 1080p, or 720p but be upscaled to 4k using dlss, xess, or fsr

Stalker Anomaly is available to download for free on moddb.com, and its actually a modded version of the original games. but GSC has allowed them to redistribute the game for free.

I am pretty sensitive to stutter and 1% lows, so maybe I'm just being nit picky. what fixed it for me was downloading a complete shader cache for the games I had stutter problems with.

 

I really loved stalker 2 but between the blood suckers that take 4 mags to kill, and crashes and corrupted save files. I had enough and I'm back to playing anomaly. anyone else?

The steam deck just barely emulates the switch, so I think switch 2 emulation is out of the question unless there is serious performance hacks. Ryujinx likely would have been able to emulate the switch 2 one or two years after launch just like what happened with dolphin and the Wii. but Nintendo illegally got them shut down

Honestly I don't see myself getting a switch 2 until its able to be emulated. and I'm buying it and all the games used so I don't have to support Nintendo financially

I used to play Roblox a lot, and there definitely is some fun to be had on that platform but its not really a proper game developing software. your "game" is completely reliant on roblox's servers and site, and they have control over anything you do on roblox. Roblox is a lot simpler than developing a "real" game, so I think it's closer to garry's mod than unity or Godot.

Maybe I'm crazy but that looks more like a modern assault rifle than a 1940s submachine gun.

Arson is prosecuted by the state unless it was carried out on federal property.. They really don't try to hide it anymore do they?

oh, so everything a leftist does is terrorism now, but when right wingers break into the capital building by force its "freedom of speech"

part of it is that on 75% the numpad is optional, and it gives you more desk space for other things

its really a matter of personal preference, but I prefer to have more space for my mousepad and coffee, rather than a larger keyboard just for the sake of it. even if I did want a numpad, (which I don't because I prefer macropads) I would want to be able to move it around separately from the keyboard

nah 75%'s are more popular than tkl right now for a reason, its more compact and gives you basically the same function.

 

I'm a junior in highschool and will be graduating next year, and the degree that makes the most sense to me is computer science. I've always loved using and tinkering with technology, and learning about it when I can.

I've taken the CS50p course as an introduction to coding, and have really enjoyed the problem solving nature of programming. I just don't know what the industry is like, and people keep saying the job market for CS majors is terrible. so I'm not 100% sure that a computer science degree would be right for me. any advice?

update: I've gotten a lot of good advice from comments and have decided to start a personal project of some sort, to test the waters and see if this is something I can do and enjoy as a hobby outside the CS50p course. thanks to everyone who responded!
