Yeah it's essentially impossible to stream with one screen. You could do it, but it would be a pain in the ass to figure out. Plus, it'll be hard to talk with chat, pay attention to your OBS or capture program/streaming app and more. I honestly recommend 3 monitors if you have a popping stream. Where you can use one screen for the game, one for the stream (OBS for example) and another screen for just chat and maybe discord if you're using that.
But two screens will be a good start.
Yeah, I believe basically all streaming setups ends up being three screens minimum, and then after that the next level is to have a dedicated capture/stream PC to capture and record, plus stream the videos from your main gaming PC, to take off the stress on it. 😁

Standing desk
in PC
I've never tried a "standing desk", but I do sometimes work while standing up in front of my computer desk when I'm sick of sitting down.
I just angle the monitor a bit upwards. 😁

I've this on Steam before and the only thing that the other person can see and access are the games in your library and that's all. The have no access to anything regarding your profile including your payment info, they can't access nor change your login details and they cannot add nor remove games from your account. It just adds thier games onto your library and that's it. Fearing your sensitive info being compromised is always a fair concern, but the family sharing feature on Steam doesn't make that any more or less likely.
yeah, that's probably safe, the same system probably exists on Google play family sharing, and Netflix's family sharing plan too.
They just get access. Done. They have their own accounts connected to the main one.

That's exactly the point because there was no way the kid would be able to afford getting himself that kind of game set up and the games he's playing.
Everything was down to his parents who FAILED him woefully!!
Reminds me of a documentary on obese children I watched... *sighs
every single time the child whined about letting him having more candy food, or sugary drinks, the parent would either give in immediately, or say no for a bit but then still give the kid junk food.
the kid was very very fat, and not even 10 years old yet...
that's waaaaay unhealthy. 🤷♂️🤦♂️ but parents just let them be. 😑

Yeah some of the food does look good, like the Dosas, those look very tasty but there is not one single indian food restaurant in my city xD
One thing I know about indian culture is thag they mostly eat with their hands which is okay I guess but dude if someone is cooking my meal they should at least wear gloves or use a spoon or something you know
actually tons of cultures across the world eat with their hands. 🤣 after all, that's how our ancestors all would eat, no? like the ancient hunter-gatherers.
a lot of asian countries also eat with their hands. hint: (it adds flavor) 🤣
anyway, there's this youtube food channel that I love watching, it's an american guy, whose name is sunny(sonny?) and he was once very fat, but got sick of it, became fit enough, and then travels the world now trying different food from different cultures.
he has a great sense of humor too. check his channel for his vids on indian food.

AHAHA, I grew up in places around asia so I'm used to seeing and knowing certain street food are prepared like that. 🤣
indian food are some of my favorites, though if the place is really really filthy I will avoid it, though if there is a decent crowd and the food is good its fine...
there's a certain acceptable compromise for me when it comes to street food of various countries. 😉

I don't always lose things, but when I do, oh boy do I wish there was a CTRL-F overlay IRL just so I can spend my time elsewhere instead of hunting around for a few hours for the thing that's gone missing. 🤣

It goes up and down.
it really depends on whether I have money to spend, or if there's something I really really want to put my money towards to warrant my spending. 😁
there's no certain amount or budget. there are soft limits though against overspending. 😋

I volunteered to be the de facto phone photographer for a group outing once. 😂😅
also, once I helped distribute and pack a donation drive of groceries as a Christmas gift for the less fortunate. -
for me, the recent deer hunter games and similar of the genre fit in the category of simulators.
and from watching videos and gameplay reviews, as a simulator, I'd say they're getting better at feeding me info of "real" life scenarios of hunting.
I'd say just off the top of my head the realism inside these recent hunter genre games are somewhere between 60-75% in my opinion.
If I'd play these kinds of games, I'd say if I met an actual hunter, this could be a conversation starter piece, although I'd say a disclaimer first of how I'd learned stuff from a game, and I'm a IRL noob when it comes to the real stuff. 😉😅

like all tools available to mankind, VR can be good, when used for good with the right goals in mind, likewise it can be also very bad, bad to the level of addicting and could damage your vision, maybe.
and we haven't even brought in the sci-fi dystopia scenarios fiction authors present to us yet.
after all, at the rate technology is progressing, it's only a matter of time before sci-fi, becomes sci-fact. 😅

welcome to VGR, and although I didn't find out about the internet in its infancy, at least I still got to witness when ASCII art, and text emotes still was dominant across the internet forums, and also "XD" is my favorite emote of all time, I used to end every damn sentence with them on an online chat XD. 🤣 XD XD XD XD

I prefer gaming on PC, as in "PC master race" 😋
though I don't mind playing games on any other console or device.

hmmm, you like only tecno phones? infinix is also from the same company, just with a different recipe for phone components. 😁

Go for quality RAM devices, the higher the RAM the bigger the phone performance in terms of gaming. Prices differs, I'll suggest the following mobile phones suitable for gaming:
- Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra
- Iphone 13 Pro Max
- Asus ROG Phone 6
- Black Shark 5 Pro
- Tecno Camon 19 Pro
You can check their prices at Amazon store, but bear in mind, you'll spend more funds for this devices due to their high quality and features.
hmmm, lot's of people like the Black shark or the ROG phone,
I recently bought a "gaming" phone according to the marketing, but I just needed a replacement for my old phone, so I bought a budget gaming phone for around $200~ USD, the infinix note 12 G96. but hey, it's AMOLED. 😁
basically the company who owns tecno also owns infinix, among a few others. 😀

Even kids that are 5 years and above shouldn't be allowed to have access to such so much hate and toxic communities when it comes to video games. It's definitely a gonna ruin a big thing in them growing up.
Parental guidance is very important for kids when it comes to choosing their games.
yeah I agree with that very much. "educational" games also are a thing, but non "educational" is fine, as long as it's up to the parent's discreetion.
which reminds me of an internet cafe in my neighborhood when I was young, GTA san andreas was installed on those PCs and sometimes kids younger than 10 years old would be seen crowding around and playing that. 😅

You are welcome 🥴
I played split gate last weekend on PlayStation 4 but I still haven't tried out the mobile version , so if you are able to get it on mobile do well to give us a few reviews about it.
soooo, I went looking for splitgate mobile and all I found was "it's in development." 😐😂
QuoteConsidering 1047 Games is a smaller studio, a Splitgate mobile port could take quite some time to develop. The team is currently supporting the game with frequent updates and content drops, meaning the staff remains active and busy working on the existing game.
Source: https://www.inverse.com/gaming/splitgate-mobile-port-release-date-ios-android-nintendo-switch
a news article from late 2021.
and I found one other guide for splitgate "mobile" which was recommending using GeForce Now to stream the game through my phone, which was not an option, as I don't have the fastest of internet speeds. 😐https://en.gizchina.it/2021/09/come-giocare-splitgate-android-iphone/
maybe I should just try this on my potato GT630 🤣

Which one, the 80s original or the remake?
uhhh, remake. 😅 I honestly haven't watched the 80s one.

Reminds me of the time left 4 dead 1, and left for dead 2 came out within the span of a year of each other. Or was it 2 years? 🤔
But to be honest, modding was easier on L4D2 than 1, so there's that benefit.
Although I do understand what you mean when you purchased and then boom there's another one.

It's fine to let young kids play games with adult supervision I guess, what I don't agree with is letting kids younger than 5 years old have access to the vast toxic online internet world. 🤨😐

For me it really depends on what game I'm playing and how much the puzzle factor is.
sometimes I'll temporarily give up and come back to it later, but sometimes when I've been at it for 30mins-1hour and I'm totally stumped, I'll just go and look for the answer online...
To be honest, there are some puzzles I've encountered that are so weird, they're basically unsolvable, unless you have a very high IQ relating to spatial logic etc.
even after knowing the answer I'm like: really? This was the answer? WHY?! 😣

Sure thing, I understand exactly that as well. I do click on links but it's mostly links that I know the website they are leading to. Just like you mentioned Reddit, once it's a URL routing me to that site, I know it's a safe link.
I'm going to check if it's possible for me to get the game Republique for free once I'm back home.
I understand your points as well, I know the site that I linked, it's just probably a matter of personal recognizability then...
also when it comes to youtube, or reddit, or some of the top 100 websites in the world based on traffic of course people would recognize thouse probably.
Also do try out republique, it's a great stealth/story game, I finished it years ago on a friend's PC, though the replayability factor depends on the preference of the one playing, once you're done with the 1st story playthrough.
And if you don't know the origin of the game, it's actually surprising that this game was 1st born as an iphone or ipad game 10 years ago? I can't recall correctly. 😅
Do you backup or replicate your data?
