I’ve been thinking about picking one up lately, no idea why. I’m gonna take this post as a sign!

Is there a Atomic spin of Manjaro? I do not trust a regular install of it to not blow itself up in weeks

They couldn’t make this SD Exclusive even if they wanted to, specially now that Valve is bringing SteamOS to other handhelds. Repackaging software only intended for a specific distro is common practice, even more so in Arch land.
Even if they bother implementing checks, you know people will just spoof those too.

special sauce in there to capture the active window so that you never lose focus

All hail Gamescope!

The best is none of either

💀

To be fair I’m being a dickhead.
I’m sure Minecraft’s slowness has more to do with how it was built/tech debt and such than Java itself, as the mods that massively boost performance show.

I’m wondering the same, maybe trading fidelity for battery life?

I mean, to this day I haven’t played a Minecraft clone that left me satisfied so I doubt Mr. Bored Depressed Billionaire over there will manage to capture lighting in a bottle twice…

(And I doubt he’s using his free time to learn a new programming language either so it’s gonna be Java again god help us all)

Talos Principle 2! Man, what a banger.

While I don’t get why Valve did this, if your Steam Replay is starting arguments it’s time to kick the arguing party from the family share lmao

They rolled it into the rather clunky Office Mobile app some time ago (now called Microsoft 365)

A lot of PDF viewers I’ve seen on F-Droid are like this.
I wonder if it’s because getting it rendering pages fast enough to let the user freely scroll is difficult to achieve or something of the sorts…

No touchpad

The heavens weep

It is very unique for sure, I don’t think I’ve ever seen this done on a tablet before!

I worry about being able to take the tablet outside the house without getting the bomb squad called on you, but I suppose you could maybe 3D print a cover for it, maybe even integrate a kickstand for that extra functionality lol

Mfs out here really trying to get shot by law enforcement lmao

Huh, I thought NBC was a respectable news org…

Oof, sorry to hear.
At least you have loooots of backlog to play if you eventually decide to get another!

Hope they support VR with this remaster.

Very Happy to see this, TP1 has my favorite set pieces of all time (the desert levels in special) and if they’re already held super well throughout the years, can’t wait to see them remastered, and with a new chapter to boot!!!

Just hope the move to UE5 doesn’t introduce the typical shader stutters 😬

They will not stop milking it until they’ve retold the entire documentary article by article

I dunno, kinda doubt it.
I don’t think most devs will be really thrilled on having to support another platform with a seemingly petty different SDK.
I think that not offering any type of Android compatibility, no matter how limited, will prove to be a mistake

Turma da Mônica type shit

Oh whatever will we do if line does not go up forever??? Do not worry, line will surely keep climbing!

It’s exactly because of setups like this that I’m excited for the SC2.
I can’t believe we settled with joysticks for camera movement for so long. I don’t think there’s any other company around trying to challenge this standard.

Damn, your friend catching strays for no reason

It’s not even the first time they’ve done this shit

This is what always springs to mind to me.
Valve has a vested interest in keeping the Steam Deck 1 up-to-date even after they eventually release the 2.
Can we say the same about ASUS? And what about the smaller OEMs? Aya Neo has 14 handhelds out for gods’ sake

Every. Single. Fucking. Time.

These people don’t fucking see the light urrghhhhhhhh

Make sure to download any fan songs/mashups/remixes you like off of YouTube, because if Nintendo haven’t striked the fuck out of it already, they will now.

I never understand why when this happens the solution is always “cut off everyone” instead of placing Linux players in a lower trust lobby

I mean, this is nothing new.
People pirate extended support all the time, just look at LTSB/LTSC.
If ya dig enough you can probably find people Frankensteining patches from POSReady just so they can keep running Win7 lol

Basically Kingsway for ship management. Interesting!

Wow, the future is weird

How terrible, such a neat feature abandoned.
I find it funny how console makers spend tons of resources making up new features only for game publishers do the bare minimum porting job and never bothering to implement any of them

OK but did it really flop or where they expecting it to sell a morbillion units weekly?

Exactly!
Yearly phone releases are already too much, let alone a entire gaming handheld 😵‍💫

If re-releases count, they’re in luck. Feels like you can sneeze and find a new Castlevania re-release, the last one being the Dominus Collection
