I’d say French or Portuguese

I was about to get one of those used (only difference is it being the 8GB version) but at the end it turned out it didn’t work so I bought a new RX 6600 instead

Nah, Halloween died down and we celebrate Mascaradas (another tradition) instead in that same date.

They used to say that black shirts, heavy metal, Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokémon and even Winnie the Pooh were satanic too as well

Here in Costa Rica we don’t usually celebrate Halloween because people back in the 90s said it was satanic and stuff.

Eventually the tradition died down

That would be understandable but they are capping it to less than 1 MB that is very low

Only Fortnite and Minecraft? Rather than a gaming laptop, you can buy him the ROG Ally handheld instead and save some money. Even the Steam Deck will do the job (make sure you get the 512 GB or 1 TB version, 64 and 256 GB are limited)

I’m a tech person and I still use reddit

without activating Windows

Edit: yeah nevermind, just ended up activating

Yeah I fully agree. Not to mention their app is badly optimized and it uses up to 40% of my CPU. If my CPU is a six core (i5-10400) then I don’t want to see what happens with dualcores…

Make sure to install uBlock Origin when you install FF. It’s unlikely your nephew can click on ads believing there is a virus but do it, to be safe

So here’s the deal, I have an old HP laptop I am in the process of resetting and setting up as my ~8yo nephew’s first computer.

Big mistake. It reinstalls all the bloatware and sometimes it can even end up bricking your Windows install. Always clean install.

Obviously the parental controls will be in place with his parents getting a crash course in anything they don’t already know how to use(they’re tech literate so I’m not worried about that).

Just in case you decide to use the Microsoft parental controls. It automatically blocks Firefox so you have to unblock it manually.

So here’s where my question for y’all comes in, what are your recommendations for a budding computer scientist/programmer’s first Windows machine?

Replace the HDD with a 512 GB SATA SSD, install 8 GBs of RAM and it will probably last more

Need context on the question. You mean reposting stuff on Reddit or reposting stuff from Reddit?

Considering I slept 2 hours (1-3 PM) I would go to bed at 10-11 PM and still be fine. If I sleep more than 2 hours, well, go to bed anyways but don’t push myself that hard to sleep

Galaxy A51, and I switch between DuckDuckGo/Bing/Fennec

Eternity for life

Do you have a HDD?

Another problem with discord is CPU usage, it randomly decides to eat 40% of my i5-10400. Even while playing

Because:

1. They pretend words like Karen or Boomer are slurs

2. They censor the words g#me, g#mer and videog#me

3. They say Hitler invented videogames in 1939

4. Most of their proof is photoshopped images (example)

5. Most of the users active in that sub are actually also active in gaming subreddits

6. They call their subreddit a “facebook group”

I think some people could think it’s not satire but that’s because there is a rule saying “we are not satire”. Guess what? That rule is satire too

Any argument from /r/BanVideoGames is fun lol. People don’t realize it’s satire and it becomes the funniest part of that subreddit 😂
