Would switch 1 have done anywhere near what it did without pandemic? Every last model of the DS is still incredibly expensive on the aftermarket, due to pandemic. Before that used consoles of previous generations were pretty readily available at cheap prices.

Point being if pandemic made even a bygone generation of handhelds revitalized and holding value for 5 years. It’s impact on Switch 1 sales cannot be underestimated.

We’ll see how the holidays go for Switch 2 without the power of FOMO and existential nomadic existence.

I love my Ally X deck. That’s why I didn’t buy a Thor. I can run emulators on that. I’m afraid to take it anywhere. And yeah, it feels more like the weight of a musical instrument than a handheld device.

It’s loading a lot of content locally, and very very slowly before you can even use it.

And the right will use this media frenzy to further their anti-immigrant agendas.

What they did in the US is highlight criminals, then use that confusion and outrage to allow them to target all immigrants. So be really careful how you respond to what is being pushed to you about this. If your gut is telling you it doesn’t sound right, or it doesn’t align with your direct experience, be very careful you are not being used to condemn.

It’s healthy to have that core value imo. I’m happy enough to work around that vs the algorithms we have normalized.

Lol me too!! After I looked I wasn’t too interested. Also crazy you mentioned Thor, that’s the device I don’t need that I can’t stop thinking about.

I think if a products budget is mostly spent on marketing it might be worth a miss.

I hate how much this marketing works for me

Learned diplomacy from Putin

Agreed but battery life is clutch with mobile devices. Dead phone batteries don’t facilitate travel. Or waiting for your car to get fixed and having this in the glove box … I mean your argument is basically against all retro handheld devices.

Any Arch/Debian. If you’re picking Distros based on which UI they package, you’re doing your self dirty by ignoring options that might be more what you want. You can always swap out the UI. It’s not a corr part of most distros.

As if we needed any more confirmation that these people are actual Nazis… Walking in and claiming this is what nurses need to write down on official documents is normal for them.

This is actually a good article. It’s not just about recording and streaming. How about don’t upload videos to Google Drive you don’t want DHS to be able to subpoena? Also I includes advice on how to best avoid altering the files or doing anything that will make them less useful when we are putting these Nazis on trial.

I can’t wait to run Linux on my Pixel! No way are nerds going to stand for this.

I cannot fathom why they would go this route after Archive.org was targetted and so thoroughly lost. They could have hosted it on a different site.

But we can all agree Charlie Kirk cashed a check he himself wrote?
