Oh right, had just assumed it’s 720p because the width is 1280. So it isn’t 16:9, which is nice but slightly surprising!

The display of the steam deck is only 720p in the first place.

There’s this saying “this isn’t an airport, no need to announce your departure”. So unless there’s an actual need for people to know where I am going and/or why, there’s no point in telling them.

If the people in the room are your close friends, that’s a different question though.

Not anymore, I hope from his description…

If money is generally more on the tighter side, I honestly can’t understand getting a Mac anything. It’s many things, but never “frugal”. There are always options that do more for less, and maybe look a little less polished.

I can only assume that is the main reason for this change. Pitty.

It’s great and all (it really is), but the target audience was just presented factorio 2.0 (and space age), so we’re busy for a few months.

This would be a good time to remember that horse armor that caused a shit storm for fishing like 5$ or something. Good times.

This sounds like it only boots Linux ISOs? I kinda need the ability to boot all kinds of images, only some of them Linux based.

Many that were filmed in front of a live audience still had a laugh track. Either to correct them not laughing or not laughing enough at the clearly excellently written jokes, or laughing at things they weren’t supposed to was removed or dampened.

The only studio that I have to completely avoid because of this, who actually make games I’d normally play, is frontier developments. Think things like planet coaster, Jurassic world evolution or stranded: alien dawn. They also never remove it. I think I read a quote that whoever is in charge believes people will “get over it” and eventually buy it anyway. I can’t speak for others, but I sure won’t.

It’s a shame, but there are other games in the genre(s) that are just as good, arguably better. And I already own more games than I can play, as the backlog seems to just grow.

If a game has Denuvo, I will just not buy it. Ever. I won’t even consider it until it’s removed. Thankfully it doesn’t happen too often that games that interest me have it, but it does happen.

Since this can’t be quantified, because there is no real way to get numbers on people that do this or similar things (except for “wild guessing”), three big ones (being public or backed by traditional investors) can’t make an argument for not having it. So here we are.

Ad others have said, nextcloud won’t rescan or reindex on a reboot. no idea why sync thing does, and surely there must be some way to disable that, too. I’m still hesitant to recommend NC as it’s somewhat fragile, needs way more babying than I’m willing to keep up with and just does too many things, none of them anywhere close to “well”. File sync on real computers works solidly if you have a reliable connection (don’t get me started on Android).

Have you considered using a real media-hoster, like Jellyfin (or like a dozen others)? Jellyfin works fine for music (the are other music-only solutions though). There are plenty of clients that can stream, and have offline support (download a subset/albums/playlists) for things like laptops, phones, … The server can usually transcode audio formats that a client can’t play, in real-time, if needed.

Edit: I realize I wasn’t clear as to what this means in practice. You essentially get a self-hosted Spotify. Your library, run from your server, optionally you can connect to it from anywhere.

“a few hundred more” for a device that only costs a few hundred to begin with seems a rather hefty premium to pay, and calling that “lucky”.

I actually have it installed on my desktops. It doesn’t work on mobile and it doesn’t work on thumbnail previews in lemmy either. Also the number of videos that actually have an alternative thumbnail is like 10%, at best.

I’ve also “gotten over it” by just not watching videos like this.

That thumbnail alone means “no, thanks”.

Kinda wanted to pick the game up at some point. Weird, I seem to have suddenly lost all interest. Huh.

I actually have it on my wishlist. One of those games I wanted to play eventually. Had it on my wishlist now. Certain actions by companies make me lose interest.

There’s enough good games out there. Can skip some based on company actions just fine.

Satisfactory with it’s 1.0 release yesterday. Just pure serenity.

You might want to actually read the article, cause that’s completely missing the point of the program, and ignoring all context. As with all things, context matters.

It’s a free market though. You can just buy from the wonderful companies that are Dell or Lenovo instead. Don’t try to look to closely at them, or you won’t be able to but a laptop ever again.
