    Basically Homeless is an absolute treasure. The gas powered PC (and followup) are a personal favourite but all his build videos and his Stupid Setups are absolute gold. Using a printer as a monitor was another highlight.

      Lol at first I thought “no way am I watching a 17 minute video about this.” But I was wrong. Captivating and hilarious the whole way through.

    I imagine there would still be tons of cheaters even if it caused them physical pain every time they cheated, lol. What a great, brilliant, stupid idea for a video that masterfully weaved in his sponsor.

  • A cheater lol

    Kernel level anti-cheats don’t appear to work any better than other anti-cheats. Hell, I can’t think of any 3rd party anti-cheat framework that everyond and their brother seems to license out that actually stops cheating to a significant degree. All the games I’ve ever played where it is rare to see a cheater in, if at all, all use in-house solutions.

    Strange how the sponsor is an electronics store whose “experts” built most of the custom HW but solid-state switching, which is obviously faster than mechanical relays, only gets an off-hand mention at the very end.

      As amazing as Microcenter is, they’re largely a consumer electronics store, not really component level like RadioShack used to be
