I feel personally attacked... I have done this with too many games on my deck, with Cyberpunk I spent 3 hours testing all kinds of different settings configurations (and then running the benchmark between every change...), trying to decide if I wanted to stick with native res and lower all the settings or upres with fsr and bump the effects up... then I got in game and realized I didnt have mods and didnt want to deal with them at that point and uninstalled the game.
There's such a relief in using simple physical tools that have a very limited number of parameters and degrees of freedom to consider. Same with reading a book vs reading on a computer.
My friend. I've seen artists friends spends days and hundreds of dollars, experimenting with paints, pencils, sharpening tools, brushes, etc. Have you seen how deep the brush material rabbit hole is?
The whole OS is configured by a single file (or subfiles you include from the main file) - every package and setting can be there. Meaning you just move the file to a new OS, run a single command, and you have the exactly same OS.
I have Elite: Dangerous. I literally built a 6D motion sensor headtracking rig with IR diodes and a modified PS EYE. 30 hours of config later I had the P E R F E C T config, so I moved on to new games.
Balancing the insane ADS in Cyberpunk 2077 by manually editing core files while battling 150+ mods, now that's what I call enjoyable gaming!
Sounds like my buddy configuring like 300 Skyrim mods over the course of a week until the game is thoroughly unplayable without a crash for longer than 5-15 minutes, then he'll play it for a couple days and do something else.
Play Cyberpunk with ultra hardcore difficulty mods? Death isn't even routine.
Make Cyberpunk run well, while incorporating missing features? Now that's a challenge on my level, it truly feels like me versus the challenge the developers CDPR executives have laid before me.
The best part is configuring a wm to my liking then migrating to another .config flooded with conf files but I am using plasma without any changes ATM, lmao.

"Ricing" is fixing up your computer (or car) in a custom way so it looks very nice and unique and also runs well.
I believe the term originated in the car customization scene.
