There was a channel called Let's Play, of rooster teeth/achievement hunter origin. Markiplier didn't have a channel until 2012. The Let's play channel first uploaded in Dec 2011.

I've only got one system running it for now, but it has worked well for my 1080ti system. There are usually hiccups with Linux, but they've been small ones so far. Nothing worse than what happens on windows. And yeah it's got a rollback system by default.

I don't love that I recognize the art style / pose.

It has to be a reference to other posts, or perhaps the professor's name is distinctly Kenyan?

I'll be the odd one out, as a relatively new Linux gamer. I almost never shut it down unless I want OS updates. Weeks without an intentional shutdown usually.

I treat it more like a phone than I do a TV or radio like I saw other people mentioning. Always on, as I left it, running whatever it was running. Screen turns off after 30 minutes of course.

I don't pay for power, so that's not really a concern for me, and I use it frequently enough when home that most of my time involves the desktop in some way.

Many people using a VPN have the same IP address, and cloudflare and others can track that behavior and block those IP addresses. Different sites do it for different reasons, some do it for a little extra security because attacks often come routed through a VPN, some do it to block country specific content like Netflix does.

Zero click hacks often find exploits in the victims OS, places where protocols run automatically. Stuff like Bluetooth device identification, wifi, sms protocols. I'm certainly no expert, but they are rare and highly coveted, and nation-states spend a lot of resources finding them. Ethical hackers also look for them, to notify the software/hardware creators and get them fixed.

I just used the calc, it's closer to 152 years. Which I assume means acceleration at 1g for about a year to reach .999c, and deceleration for the same time.

I just confirmed with dV= a*t, a year of 1g(9.8m/s/s) gets you just over the speed of light. I think it's more complicated than that, If I remember right relativistic speeds require more and more energy to accelerate so you can't ever "reach" light speed.

Took me 3 tries to finish it, and I basically had to be firm with myself to only play that and not get distracted by other games.

It's very good, but it's one of those games you need to play in a relatively focused way, like watching a movie.

I only did that once on an Apollo style mun mission when I realized I didn't put any rcs on it after 2 hours of mission. Took a few quick loads so I had enough fuel left to get back.
