For the love of <insert chosen deity>, if you aren't using encrypted messaging at this point, please do. Keep in mind standard SMS isn't encrypted at all and can be read by your phone company and other interested parties.

I recommend signal.org for most. Feel free to reach out with questions.

I'm getting this on my linux client, but using discord in a browser is working for now.

I run it without any real issue on a laptop 4070 and decent settings. I have an nvme m.2 drive for it though, and gen 4 at that.

I've not studied it in depth, but it seems to get CPU and storage bound at times, so they matter almost as much as the gpu for this game.
