You could probably build something decent for CAD$1000. Canada computers often have massive discounts on a lot of items. US$700 to CAD$1000 is not that far apart. The console would probably still be more performant but the point is, the prices are not that far apart anymore.

People give me a weird look when I spell out dates like this. It’s easier for me to say it that way and it’s correct. I don’t get why people are iffy about it

Thank you.

I heard this for years while the show was running. I refused to watch the show as well. I decided to start watching it recently.

It turns out that what people were referring to when they likened me to Sheldon was my autistic traits. Sheldon incorporates a lot of specific autistic traits in his character and I am autistic. The funny thing is, one of the people that was constantly comparing me to Sheldon was a good friend of mine who was also autistic but I guess she is somewhere else on the spectrum which is why it was easier for her to associate me with Sheldon than herself.

I guess my point is to tell you that sometimes people make uneducated guesses and comparisons that may end up seeming funny when you realize why they made them. Watch the show. Laugh at them for comparing you to an exaggerated TV persona because you were different from what they expect the average person to be.

Path of Exile doesnt support Linux either and they are both rated gold on Protondb
