I'm going to start university next year and I'm planning on doing Software engineering. But one thing keeps bugging me and that is, Will i actually need a laptop for university? I can pay the university fees with the help of my parents but barely and i don't want to waste money on a laptop (I'm not very fond of laptops due to their lack in performance and high price) i currently have a pc which i keep adding and replacing parts to make it better and it takes care of all my needs such as coding, gaming, music producing, etc.. So can i just bring my pc to my hostel and due all my work there or do i have to buy a laptop? I don't know if this is relevant or not but I'm planning on going to COMSATS Islamabad.

No need if you have Desktop PC you are good to go but if you want to practice a lot, a laptop will be a lot more comfortable but then its your choice.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    "These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

    Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    MS one upping Sony in catching the biggest L in gaming
    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
