    I accidentally bought Minecraft for windows for someone when I wanted java… so that was fun.

    The launcher just says “here are the options” it doesn’t say why you might want to choose one over another. Ive played since day 0 so I’ve always gone with java.

    Just felt like if bedrock was meant to replace java they should have just done it and dealt with it instead of having so many choices.

    Genuine question: why does bedrock exist? What does it bring? Why is there the choice between java, bedrock and “Minecraft for windows”?

    How do you fuck up this badly?

    I tried using the launcher to move a java install from C: to another drive and it just points there and doesn’t do anything? Steam had this stuff figured years ago

    Check out bigclive on YouTube, he takes apart lots of electronics and breaks down the circuits. He investigated lots of cheaper, dodgier stuff too. Like lamps with usb ports that are mains voltage when the lamp is plugged in to recharge. Fun times.

    Or electroboom if you want to see what happens when you lack care around those same electronics




  • The one time I got a prebuilt desktop for myself it was an HP Omen. Terrible decision.

    Single unit radiator that struggled to cope with the CPU under any load, custom case so a larger rad AIO won’t fit, buy a new case.

    Usb controllers overwhelmed while streaming and gaming so bought a controller card. Nope, there is only one slot on the mobo and that’s for graphics. (Yes, I should have checked first)

    Useless bloatware always crashing and popping up over screen. Changes made to windows registry mean sounds fade in if no sound was played for a while (including alerts or memes on stream so you only hear the last part)

    Many regrets.
