Let me guess, you have to pay a monthly subscription fee for this and if you want the free tier, it would just require you to play all games with an internet connection to ensure you aren’t doing something you shouldn’t and collecting your juicy data in the meantime. This fucking timeline is almost like the fallout timeline

Could be, like I said, not making it political. My current setup is running a 12th gen i9 and runs fine. I’m just repeating what I’ve seen other across Lemmy, Reddit, etc. have said in other places

One thing that may or may not have something to do with people leaving Intel might be related to their relationship with Israel. Not trying to make this political, but it’s something I’ve seen some folks mention before.

That’s a pretty cool mechanic tbh

So if I only pve, it will place me with other non violent players? Neat!

Abmm?

Don’t play online games and you don’t have to worry about cheaters or kernel level anticheat

Thanks, yeah I used this in order to her CachyOS on my M16 Zephyrus, however it would be fantastic if Asus would offer Linux support like they said they would several years back.

We just need better support by some laptop manufacturers (looking at you Asus)

As the owner of 3 Asus ROG laptops (2 G14s and a M16) and without knowing for what purpose you want to use the G14 for, I would suggest to get a thinkpad instead.

Wait, you are telling me that yet another monthly service is making their offering…

*checks notes

… WORSE?!

And yet, they don’t improve the quality of windows. Bugs that have existed in Windows 7, 10, and even 11 go unfixed. Features that would make windows more secure aren’t implemented but hey, copilot takes screenshots out our screen and stores everything creating a massive security issue and Microsoft just pushes it down users throats for profit?

I get that Microsoft needs to make money, but the way they are going about it is stupid and should be studied because the more they push copilot and other privacy invading “features” the more they force users to switch to Mac or Linux.

Any developer job right now is becoming slavery and all coders should unionize

People play games to escape right? So if someone wants to escape by playing a game and someone else is using cheats to break the game (le. Floats over the map and insta kills any player that spawns) that ruins the gane for those trying to escape, which is a problem. The question is more, why are you playing a game where you need to use cheats to have fun? Why are you paying money to cheat a game when you would clearly suck otherwise? If you are bad at a game, that’s ok. Either take your time to learn how to play the game better, of maybe this game isn’t for you and you should find a different game that you’d be better and have more fun playing (this is why there are game demos)

Haven’t had an Xbox since my 360 red ringed, so I’m in.

Well I have a couple of titles on my library that always ask for controller. (NFS Heat, and Jedi Fallen Order to name two)

You lost me at shareholder. When I see that word, I know nothing worth reading follows

The zune was truly awesome! Its only weakness was that Microsoft actually didn’t really believe on it (same with the Kin)

“[Enter any AI LLM service or solution here] failed to deliver on over-hyped promises”

This is why I would never install company apps on my personal phone. If my employer wants me to have a phone, they can give me one that I will turn off and place infaraday bag when I clock out.

Jesus, it’s like anyone older than a gen Z is a boomer now

And that includes Linux gaming

I mean I get where you are coming from because most people are like Steam = PC = complicated AF, but PlayStation\Xbox\Nintendo = not PC = easy and its only reinforced by “influencers” that are just pushing corporate crap to consumers for comisión \ free shit.

They make sense because we don’t want your AI shit Sweeney

If your phone isn’t slow, fix it. If its unfixable, or you just want something newer, get a pixel phone.

Google says verification forces bad actors to use “real identity to distribute malware, making attacks significantly harder and more costly to scale.”

You are already doing that and somehow there is still malware in YOUR APP STORE

Kindly fuck right off a cliff into a mountain of cati Google

Love this! Since google is stupidly cracking down on android and fairphone is able to run Ubuntu mobile os. Now we will have an alternative to android and iPhones in the US

Didn’t know about duress password… Enabled

Plus, no sim card slot on the 10 in the US market

Fuck off Google, now we need degoogled phones more than ever.

*Sent from my cheap as fuck pixel 8a running graphene os

Edit: ducking autocorrect you ducking duck

I got an 8a. Almost the same exact features as the 9a but for much less money. Battery lasts all day easily for me, and runs smooth as butter. Storage is something I have to personally get used to as I only got 128gb and came from a 256gb s23 ultra but I’ll be ok.

Cameras are okish but you aren’t getting this for the cameras in the first place, but its more due to the lack of ai tuning in the cameras with graphene as I took some test shots with both my phones and they where on par with each other.

I bought my 8a used in immaculate conditions for $280 and its great for me.

I might upgrade to a 10 pro if I can get one with a sim tray later and can run graphene

Yep, got one arriving today

Makes me want a Graphene OS phone more than ever. Fuck Google

Also, no It’s not about the security vulnerability, devs already said they can work around this issue. It’s more because Google doesn’t deserve anyone’s data, much less mine.

Doesn’t matter (to me at least), fuck a $1500 phpne

Of course it’s a scam. But its also a money grab and a power grab. Google is completely gone from “do no evil” to “heil Trump”

What’s worse, is that I do self hosting and almost all self host apps are open source on the android side, so now I may loose several of those apps if they don’t want to sign or are banned by Google.

Looks like they want more control and to give more datapoints to feds… Time for Linux on my smartphone

I mean, you’ll be able to upgrade the usb port later, but I get your issue.

My $350 G-Shock Rangeman is better as a smart watch as my battery lasts a month of heavy use. If I want to dress up, I wear my $25 Casio F-91W silver band always gets the complements for being a nice and classic watch.

So, hear me out, but what if we all go back to feature phones? Smart phones are convenient, but do the pro’s weigh more than the cons at this point? I am also including mental health into this btw.
