I’d argue it is financially sensible if you want one. Current price may be the lowest it’s ever been, with increasing prices for RAM and storage. There’s only so much stock they have bought previously.

It’s not that expensive. It’s similar in price to PS5 before it got a price increase, and trades raw performance for portability.

The real expensive part is new price point for first party games and prices of SD Express cards.

Kinda same, but I would also always tinker with Plasma endlessly customising every little bit, installed applets and widgets to check if they’re better than what I’m currently using. It got tiresome, but I just couldn’t stop myself. After a while I installed Gnome and just embraced the simplicity.

I’m so tired of the whole discourse. Why is Nintendo “evil” while Sony and Microsoft have been doing the same stuff, and for longer? Don’t even argue, I don’t care anymore. I’m just tired.
I like Switch 2 and I will play games on it. It’s a lot cheaper than upgrading my PC. I don’t play online, and eshop has better prices than Steam in my country. Don’t yuck my yum, and I won’t yuck yours.

Never heard of the guy before

Lucky you. Randy has a long history of being an insufferable asshole

Not only government. I can’t see my daughter’s insulin pump status if I don’t disable developer mode.

Listen very carefully, I shall say this only once!

My gripe is no other app than Sync allows me to easily change instance to see posts only from that instance. At least it used to, the button stopped working for me a while ago

In my experience it was KDE 3 that was praised, while 4 was shunned for being too bloated, and trying to be too much like Windows Aero

Just uhhh… Build a wall, I guess?

Demons in Frieren were shown to be irredeemable monsters so many times, people arguing they aren’t are idiots. There’s no benefit of the doubt to be given to them.

So far I’ve yet to encounter the separation between save and game data issue. It’s permissions that drive me up the wall. I’ve tried giving everyone write access, I’ve tried creating a group specifically for games. But no, proton/wine prefixes require ownership and not just access, and will not yield, and Steam won’t even show what’s the issue unless you run it from terminal.

This. It also made me genuinely hate how Steam on Linux handles library sharing on a multi user system.

I’m in the same boat, haven’t really found anything good to upgrade to that doesn’t cost me a kidney.

It has electrolytes!

You can, but for me there’s just too much to fiddle, and I can’t help tinkering with stuff.

Eh, Gnome is fine. I like KDE, but I’d rather use my PC for the stuff I want to use it for rather than obsessively change some stuff so it looks better only to change it the next time I boot it again.

Don’t think so. Those who actually are interested are just a vocal minority, compared to Switch userbase. I’m personally conflicted on this one.

On one hand, I kinda want to get a Switch 2 because I know how convenient it is to just pick up a Switch and play a game without fiddling with settings.

On the other, I have so many games on Steam/Heroic it just makes sense to get a Steam Deck or a competitor.

For now I’m waiting for the reviews of Lenovo Legion Go S with Z1 Extreme and Steam OS, then I’ll probably make a decision on what to get
