Probably Animanics, though I was grown up before I watched that. Before that, I suppose Beavis and Butthead and even Simpsons were considered edgy.

I hear you, and I agree. I did just upgrade my ok PC because I had saved up the money and wanted to get the most for them before the tariffs take effect. Before that I was gaming in a decently capable laptop about 4 years old, and before that I used hand-me-downs and upgraded maybe every 5-10 years. With the exception of this last upgrade, I've stayed about mid-tier for GPU and other components.

While consoles may be less expensive up front, I don't care about exclusives and I grew up as a PC gamer who still can't use a controller right. I'm also a developer so I can justify the upgrades when I have the money for it.

When asked, I typically tell people to pick a budget and get the most computer you can get within that. If you're always wanting "the best" your can always spend more money for some increase in performance. Don't spend money you don't have.

The cost of PC gaming keeps getting worse every year and the near future doesn't look very promising. With fewer gamers being able to afford upgrades, I except that will have a chilling effect on game studios and independent developers as well.

Firefox for the add-ons, sync, and other features, but I have set Firefox Focus as the default that most apps open pages in. From there I can open pages in regular Firefox if I need or want to. Firefox Focus acts as a sort of default private browsing mode.

Yes. The periods are just part of the name like any other letter, so 5 is compared to m, and numbers sort before letters. You can add something like '.0' to make it sort more naturally. Look up an ASCII table to get a feeling for how strings are sorted.

Yep, I'm a big fan. It's definitely an acquired taste, though.
