Set the microscope to a lower magnification.

The problem is, that doesn't make sense for digital media. A large part of resales is media degradation. You pay less, but you take a risk upon yourself for it. Being able to refund a game that isn't for you seems fair, though.

This isn't a Windows thing, it's a firmware thing. It's HP's doing, and HP is well known for screwing with the usability of their devices. In my case, on my Victus, it's F10 that opens UEFI, but the menus are incredibly stripped down. Looking online, F10 seems to be the key to access it on your device, too. Maybe you just aren't getting the timing right, sometimes you gotta mash the absolute hell out of that button to get it to register. Once you do get it, setting a post delay will make it easier in the future.

You leave The Golden Girls alone, mother fucker.

Agreed, let Embracer keep Randy.

Yeah, maybe. My experience has been a multitude of hangs and flash drive rewrites. At first, I thought my flash drive might be bad, so I tried another and quickly determined that the other one was actually bad before going back to the first. Eventually, I ended up just unplugging everything out of desperation and for some reason that worked.

I'm actually still working on this as I type this, currently waiting on partition changes because, while I read that 500MiB is recommended for Pop's boot partition, the installer has told me that it's too small...

Since I'm still dealing with this, and given the issues I had booting the live disk, there's a good chance this won't even be useable in the end. I've used Ubuntu before, and it boots fine, but fuck if I want to deal with snap.

Edit: Went up to 750MB (yeah, MB not MiB here, easier to think about later). Still says it's too small. Sure wish I had some detailed documentation to work with here, instead of just "use Clean Install" in the official docs and a single Reddit comment saying "500MiB is good." That would the bee's damned knees.

Edit 2: Works fine once installed. The live disk just would not boot with anything else plugged in for some reason.

Recommending Pop_OS! to newbies

That might just be the quickest way to make someone hate Linux forever. The glitchiest, most troublesome install I've ever tried to do. In the end, after two days of work just to get the damn live image to boot, the only reason I kept going was probably sunken cost falacy.

the PS5 has a pro controller where you can easily replace the sticks

You mean the controller that costs $200 while the normal one is still $70 with no way to deal with drift?

Any xbox controller will suffer the same stick-drift so long as they are using carbon pad analog sticks.

Except controllers made with better quality components won't start drifting anywhere near as fast. Late-model PS4 controllers could barely outlast their warranty because they were made so much cheaper. What fucking good is gyro aim when you have to spend $60-$70 every six months?

And ya know what? I'm not even gonna bother with the rest of your shit spewing because you're such a damned clown.

As someone who dropped consoles entirely because I got sick of getting burned by Sony...

K, pal.

I don't even own a XBox One, but my brother does, and you wanna know something? He hasn't had a problem with drifting once. I, on the other hand, have had two $60 controllers start drifting on me. My early model Switch's original joycons still work better.

Considering what a disaster Sony's hardware has been, this honestly really sucks.
