Finally a Deck rival I might actually be interested in.

Ah yes that sounds like an incredibly safe idea.

Privacy isn’t a binary choice. Obviously I would love for there to be an alternative to Google Pay but no such service exists.

The most private form of payment is to use cash but that’s just hugely inconvenient in 2024. Sometimes it would be nice to be able to pay from my phone when I don’t have my wallet on me but custom ROMs don’t allow it.

Can we just ban them entirely? Horrible cars.

I’d have rather seen Google Pay support than Android Auto though I imagine it’s a lot less feasible.

What can I say? I had a laptop with Vista pre-installed and it was fine.

Vista was fine. I never had any issues.

8 and 8.1 is a shame. Best versions if Windows we’ve ever had.

The thing with the PS3 though is most games don’t even get good performance on the original hardware. With the speed at which PS3 emulation is improving I’ve no doubt it will be THE way to play all PS3 games fairly soon.

I sold mine recently because of how good RPCS3 has gotten recently. My CPU isn’t good enough to run it but will be one day.

Out of curiosity, why not go for something that supports Linux out of the box? Why stock to mainstream?

The most popular musoc streaming service. Definitely not the best. They still don’t offer lossless musoc streaming and their lossy files use an outdated encoder.

Flatpaks are a lot easier than appimages though I still default to my distros native packages if available.

I buy it for classics.

I usually go for incredibly inhumanly muscley male characters but occasionally play as a woman for variety.

PopOS and Manjaro are two I never liked.

For some reason I’m particularly keen on Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s Murder on the Dancefloor at the moment. No idea why but it did just turn 20 years old.

Same here in the UK. Far too warm.

A Hat In Time is great.

As much as you deny it, you are just experiencing Nostalgia. I was an N64 and GameCube kid and never really had much to do with PlayStation. I played Ratchet and Clank and Jak and Daxter well into the PS4 days and was underwhelmed with both.

By the looks of it you haven’t ever done any thinking for anyone.
