WoW64 is a Windows subsystem for running 32-bit stuff on 64-bit Windows. You're talking about Wine's implementation of WoW64 - there's the old one which needs 32-bit Linux libraries and the new one which doesn't.

Also, if you want people to solve your issue instead of just guessing, we're gonna need to see some logs.

port forwarding/firewall issues that most people don’t know how to deal with

This sort of thing makes me want to tear my hair out when I hear "Why bother rolling out IPv6 when IPv4 just WORKS!?"

NAT, port forwarding and the problems they cause are seen as expected, just the way the internet works instead of the dirty hacks they actually are. Most people aren't old enough to remember the time when everything connected to the internet had a routable IPv4 address.

Personally, I'm on an electricity plan that gives me free usage at midday when solar is flooding the grid, so it's useful for me to be able to charge as fast as possible in that window.

Faster charging is useful for more than just finishing before your next drive.

Nah, there was a time when you'd get a new card every two years and it'd be twice as fast for the same price.

Nowadays the new cards are 10% faster for 15% more money.

I bought a new card last year after running a Vega 64 for ages and I honestly think it might last me ten years because things are only getting worse.

Because the "Why is the video being slow?" pop-up now sends you to the page blaming adblockers instead of the ISP shaming thing it used to do.

I can imagine showing someone the image and saying, "See the evil one in the middle? No, not that one, front middle."

You may not be surprised to find out that place used to be the bottom of an ocean. Doesn’t look like it’s changed much.

Presumably it's a bit less wet these days.

You sure that guy wasn't playing on a potato? (Or a brand new Nvidia 5060Ti 8GB?) Low VRAM makes a lot of games look like crap, because it's either dropping textures or running like ass when you overflow VRAM.

I'll say fudge-diddly-darn if I want to and you can't stop me.

My phone will hotspot when it's connected to WiFi. I can even tether it to a desktop PC and use it as a WiFi adapter.

Just scrambles in place, like eggs.

I just... don't feel like other people's personal lives are my business. And it's weird that so many people apparently do.
