I'm using thunder, on mobile. All I know is I am on lemmy.world, any idea how to modify what instances I am connected to with that?

Mounting games to your virtual machine as a network drive? That sounds like a rather tricky workaround. Has it given you much trouble?

I do not know what those are. So, another reason then: still ignorant

That's an idea, for sure.... Ehh, why not, I'll see if I have a big enough flash drive laying around that can do that.

Who the hell is down voting this? This couldn't be more satire if it tried!

Alright, as much as I want to give Microsoft the double birds and leave, way too many modding programs are .exe based.

And I just cannot yet be fucked to learn how to do per-app emulation. It scares me, things just sort of work here, and I can give them one and a half birds by removing almost all their telemetry garbage.

That being said I do really like the idea of Linux, I just want a little bit more idiot friendliness out of it

And now I have a new monthly payment, which depending on where I get it can be rather tough depending on a variety of factors. I'm not a banker, I can't weigh in too intelligently on this part, but I have had a car payment before and been laid off. That monthly payment ate through my savings damn fast while I was looking for a job. Lesson learned, I'm not inclined to buy anything with a loan any time soon. I just don't trust it

I make $50k a year. Most Americans make less than I do. Mid range or not, that's not in reach for most people.

Because those specific cards are fuckloads more expensive.

Terribly. I was laid off last year on Halloween, and I've been trying everything I can to get a job, everything my family and friends can think of. Fuck any sort of standards or pride or anything I may have had previously, I can't even get hired to work the deli counter at Walmart, even they are denying me for minimum wage! I've got a degree, no criminal record, I've got previous professional work experience, I'm dropping over a dozen applications a day both online and in person and nothing is working.

I've got a about a month left of savings. When it's out... I guess I just blow my own brains out. My country has made it clear it doesn't want me, it doesn't need me, it would rather I perish. I'll yield, I'm so tired of fighting and scrounging for the right to live and being told I'm not good enough and not worth anything.

I'll just take their word for it.
