I have been building my own PCs for many years, as it’s cheaper and you get exactly what you want.

EU was discussing a China car ban, but the german were against as they still sell cars in China. Is Volvo still available in the US?

even the most basic sound is not working like copying the working stall example: <MiscellaneousSounds> <Sound WwiseEvent="STALL_WARNING" WwiseData="true" FadeOutType="2" FadeOutTime="0.1"/> <Sound WwiseEvent="GEAR_UP" WwiseData="true" FadeOutType="2" FadeOutTime="0.1"/> </MiscellaneousSounds> why? I've copied the event and named GEAR_UP thanks (I was even banned from devsuport for asking this)

Last time I've installed Ubuntu, about a decade ago, the package manager offered 3 nvidia drivers to install. You had to google which one as the other two were broken... On my 5 year old system I have 32GB Ram, which is probably the minimum. Never had problems on Ubuntu.-

Glad I bought in the beginning the full msfs2024 package with all aircrafts. So many new planes and updates for free, great.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein was great even better than later Wolfensteins. 2002.. how time passes. Quake 4, Doom3 I've played a lot. Nowadays, like jcomm, only flightsims.

Yes, I remember playing ID games Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake etc. for hours on Linux. Yes it was possible at around 2005 or so to download an inofficial executable, if you had the game for Windows. Was good fun, nowadays I don't play anymore. I prefer to do outdoors whenever possible.

Using air conditioning sparingly should be a priority. I remember a Greyhound bus trip at night. I asked the driver to turn off the air conditioning because it was freezing cold. He just said that wasn't possible because the bus couldn't do that. Crazy.-

Wireless mouse is sticky. I've been using a wireless one for so long. Is it the same with a wired mouse?

I remember going for a swim in the Atlantic near Bordeaux, in October, to warm up from the cool wind.

I saw Visalia is the whole week at more than 40 Celsius which is not that far from SF. Weird.

Would it be possible to upload to the store for default inclusion?

Up to 39 degrees celsius in the last wave. Now 35 in, I guess, the 4th heat wave in Switzerland. Happy Global Warming everyone and your children...

Yes, without Manzambi I doubt the swiss will score a lot.
