No actually, they haven’t!

I think that might be a labooboo, not an expert though.

I have a feeling it’s going to be the norm for the next few years. I think we are about to enter a personal computer dark age.

I’ve been avoiding ubi for a decade or longer because they suck in many other ways, but here’s another reason to not give them a single penny.

I can’t wait to get a rental car that doesn’t allow me to use my own maps.

Remember, if you pay for any AI products you are rewarding this behavior.

Exactly. I used to play league pretty regularly, and even bought some shit every once in a while. There’s no way I’m installing windows again just to play league.

I recently tried it again on arch and had serious steam issues, any tips?

ARM = Acorn Risc Machine

If it was actually pocketable I would have bought a second switch for on the go. But it’s not small enough for that, and it drops functionality from the slightly larger model. If either changed I think it would have sold better.

I think not being dockable killed it for most people, that and it not being a pocket system. I think if either of those changes the for the better it would sell well. If it doesn’t fit in my pocket I might as well get the big one that docks so I can play on the TV when I’m in the mood.

I have a feeling that a Switch 2 Lite is on the horizon, Nintendo loves a console variant. Not that the S1 lite is pocketable, but maybe they will shrink it more this time. I went down a somewhat similar path, only for me it was GBA and emulation on my Steam Deck that really made me realize I missed having pocket games that are real games and not mobile bullshit. I modded my old GBA with a modern screen and battery and it’s been my goto device for portable games. The OG DS dropped as I was graduating highschool and going into college, and the 3DS completely passed me by. I keep thinking about getting a used one but their prices are still a little high for me.

Well I’ve had the cough drops but never heard of that one.

I actually have it on gog, but I’ve had a few issues running it on Linux. I haven’t tried it a while, and I didn’t troubleshoot much at all. I should give it another try.

Holy crap I thought I was the only one that played that game.

How do we murder it quickly

I personally think this is a better idea than an old laptop. Easier to work on if the fan or SSD ever dies, and the cooling is a little better than any cheaper laptops I have worked on. It also wouldn’t need to be a NUC, basically every PC company makes a SFF or 1L sized computer, I’m partial to the Lenovo but the Dell’s are pretty nice too. I have about 8 Lenovo that are used as mini servers between home and work, on 24/7

I understand what you’re saying, but I think the user counts and usages would matter big time. I used to run it on the smallest plan DO offered, but I haven’t in a few years now. No idea if the usage requirements have grown over time, and that was just for 2 users. I know a lot of people run it on a NAS in a VM or container, that’s not exactly a dedicated machine either.

Look into digital ocean. They have pretty cheap hosting, like $6 a month last time I checked. You used to be able to get a month for free too. If it looks like a good option I can probably rustle you up a referral code.

Maybe you could use arcade buttons instead.
