There’s a mod on Nexus that makes it at least comparable to other decks if you upgrade it once or twice after crafting it. Gives you more slots for hacks and I think more RAM, also alters the blackwall gateway hack to be faster too.

To be entirely fair I’d probably just ⚡ 🧑🏿‍🦱 ⚡ myself either way. Not willing to try and survive without my meds.

Its as close as possible to now before the 50s

I could’ve sworn I read something a few years ago about some scientists genetically modifying or identifying this mutant variant of bacteria that was able to outcompete the natural stuff, but don’t produce the stuff that harms teeth. Was sometime in the 80s but the FDA completedly blackballed it.

Kinda wish they’d do something with hydroid tbh. Love the look but the kit bores the hell out of me.

In a lot of countries it is also illegal and is treated as such. While it is fictional and all many people will still view it as pedophilia and that is unlikely to change at any point realistically.

It is a bit more complicated than that. Basically, people you play with won’t care so long as you’ve painted it to a reasonable standard and there isn’t some massive size difference that’d give some notable advantage or disadvantage compared to official minis. The same is true of official ones where people are picky about unpainted plastic but its likely more a thing with printed ones. Independent game stores also won’t really give a shit since you’re likely buying paints and stuff from them anyway.

GW stores are the ones that will have a problem with it, along with tournaments they host. I have heard stories of people getting shit for using forgeworld stuff (which is GW’s speciality site basically, they sell the really big models and some more niche like, regiment-specific stuff) in stores because it isn’t something the stores themselves will specifically sell. This is because of corporate policy though, no one wants to lose their job.

It actually might be ventoy yeah. I had some recent issues with it but things worked fine with other software.

Occasionally a bad package gets pushed out, part of the nature of rolling distros. What I’ll give them credit for is their forums, seems to be the primary support spot and a quick search points you to recent threads on any fuck ups that occur. Someone usually figures out which package is the issue and mentions it, then you can downgrade it pretty easily.
