Thank you. I was hoping to be able to see trends over a few years rather than over small quarters.

Really wish I could see popularity spanning over years rather than a quarter. Maybe I’m missing a setting somewhere I’m not seeing.

Not to mention your average user is likely to read the error on screen whether they know a log exists at all. This info alone can help software support.

XDA’s article is quite a bit of garbage too. Outside of game compatibility their other reasons are reaching.

Linux has a desktop and can be used as a desktop PC as well and works with a ton of peripherals driver free. That being said Linux has an issue with too many hands in the cookie jar for window managers so you get 2 really bulky fleshed out ones and a whole bunch of others that just don’t hold up without considerable customization by the user which tends to add more bulk and a steep learning curve.

Xbox Gamepass, as great as it is, has a ton of issues with installing/uninstalling software in Windows and the cloud gaming part of Gamepass Ultimate works quite well on the Steam Deck too. Technically you can also dual boot Windows but it’s no at all worth it and has much worse performance.

And then they just kind of silently say that many people don’t know Linux and are familiar with Windows. I feel like anyone coming to Windows 11 from 10 or even 7 might have some idea but they’re going to be just as confused considering the obfuscation Microsoft included in 11. And Steam OS has an easy to use and understand interface that just about anyone can figure out in a few minutes.

I’m just not seeing the huge benefit that XDA claims. Worse performance and battery life, generally a higher cost (Windows licensing), and support is going to be a grab bag for all these Windows based handhelds.

Oh man I haven’t seen these before. I’ll definitely check it out. Gonna be expensive but it might just be worth it! Thanks!

Why do you need a headphone jack? Any DAC in a phone is going to be useless if you’re saying because of HiFi Audio. And when it comes to using a HiFi DAC I’d much rather just use a USB-C powered port for my headphones.

iOS is based off of Darwin which was based off of BSD Linux. So was MacOS for that matter.

Yup I still have that 5700XT and it’s perfectly capable for nearly every game I enjoy today. I haven’t seen a reason to upgrade just yet.

Wow my 5700 XT was $600 lol. God prices were garbage back in the day.

Oh I’m old and have been playing most FPS games on consoles for nearly 20 years. I’m terrible on PC but want to get better and seriously think it has to do with my death grip on my mouse. I still can’t use Keyboard as I’ve got bad carpal tunnel in my left hand and it’s near infinite pain after 10 minutes. So I use a mouse and a PlayStation Navi controller for WASD.

Time to try this out.

Ok, so it’s time for me to do some research on Flatpaks now. I’m an old schooler from Redhat days and haven’t kept up with the new stuff all that much.

Wine nor bottles are reliable enough for making backups in that fashion. You’re almost guaranteeing corrupting the backup and the same goes for restoring the backup.

If it’s for work and is required to be backed up then just backup to iCloud and have your work maintain the extra cost in size.

What philosophy do you speak of? Are you talking about the walled garden that is the App Store?

I want to believe this is all /s but I haven’t gotten the feel of Lenny quite yet.

Funny this is pretty close to the truth when it comes to the things described in this thread.

Poop Knife - Bad diet, large BM’s = financially poor diet = trailer Frog Tongs - trailers tend to have bad gaps in windows Etc

Ours has a magnet and is stuck to the toaster. Long since abandoned since most cants with ridges don’t like to open well without just using a can opener and removing the whole can lid.

You have one badass cat.

I have a set of tongs at home with frogs for the silicone grips. Living at the beach it’s not uncommon for green tree frogs to make their way inside the doggie door.

Not to mention using white phosphorus bombs as well. I’m not for either side but it’s time Israel is held accountable for war crimes.

Should make for some interesting fail videos on YouTube in the next few years.
