I was so overjoyed when that happened that was originally going to be the subject of this meme. I make all my memes in Krita, and I wanted that text tool so bad. It wraps around! Wraps around, I tell you!

At this point I should just set invent.kde.org as my new tab page.

I'm waiting for Linux 7.4 to drop so I can have non-Steam games working with my Switch 2 Pro Controller out of the box.

Fast heating, wipe clean, works off clean electricity, roasts me less in the summer, doesn't care about the air coming from a window, starts the first time every time, what more could I ask for? I got this cheap plug in one and it dropkicks my installed gas stove in basically every metric.

On this topic, there are adapter plates you can get for moka pots (basically just a piece of steel on a handle) so you can use them on induction.

Have I just been really lucky or something with OLEDs? Almost all the ones I have had for 5+ years on phones and such, and even my nearly two year old desktop one, have nearly zero burn in.

Torx needs to become the standard for screws. They are just better in every way.

Probably early production quality issues rearing their head, likely from poor thermal paste application. These units will probably get replaced under warranty soon. If we continue seeing these issues on newer produced consoles in a few months from now though, this is a problem.

I do wonder what a more permanent solution for these sorts of situations could be, as right now these things are case by case. Either Nintendo tolerates the use of cloned cartridge IDs (which is something no game company/publisher/whatever have you would ever accept), or they bring down the ban hammer on random people who just bought a used game and had no idea it was used for copying (which is just a dick move). Nobody buying a used game is going to have any real idea where it came from, and in a lot of used stores the carts probably get mixed around anyway. Having any sort of checker for cloned IDs would also be difficult, as Nintendo's systems probably only catch it when both are in use at the same time. Perhaps they could use some system to look for MIG Switch use specifically, and only block that cartridge? That would probably be the best way to go about it, but I'm not so sure about the technical details that would make such a thing work, as it would require some reverse engineering of the MIG Switch.

EDIT: I do think as well this article is too generous to Nintendo. The writer focuses on how easy it was to get unbanned, rather than the ban in the first place. Nintendo should at least start sending an email warning or something before deciding to block online. That would give people a change to figure out what is going on, instead of waking up one day to find they can't access the eShop or GameChat.

Most of the delivery services here in the UK even in places with big roads use bicycles, mopeds, or at most a small hatchback car. They can easily fit through that city.

In a small room where it's the only light source, it's still a crazy amount of light. My eyes genuinely had to get used to the brightness for a couple minutes after I set it up for the first time, and the walls sometimes looked like the ceiling light was on.

This is quite an impressive launch from Framework. Even with the high RAM and storage prices, it is still cost competitive with an equivalent MacBook Pro (my yardstick for mid-high end laptops), but with a fully open design you can run Linux on without any virtual machines, and with (claimed) nearly equal battery life. I am somewhat disappointed though by that display, in my opinion touch is not as worthwhile compared to a display with local dimming (OLED/Mini LED).

I don't get why Nintendo felt the need to hide screws behind stickers, or to glue down the battery so hard. Switch 1 was fairly easy to open up. Hopefully right to repair legislation can force Nintendo into providing official parts and repair guides before Switch 2 batteries start dying.

It's a hidden cellular service tower. The antennas are poking out through the top.

I love gas turbines! I love pollution spewing power plants reliant on a scarce natural resource! (heavy /s)

People around me have a different sort of take. Most of them have big powerful desktops already, and Deck doesn't really appeal to them, so they all ended up buying Switch 1s eventually for the exclusives and portable use, and will likely follow with Switch 2. Deck is still amazing value though, considering it's a full Linux PC you can take anywhere and use how you wish.

~18 degrees Celsius

When can I move in? /s

but seriously that's my ideal temperature year round, much to the chagrin of anyone else when I get a hotel room with AC

How's the build quality? Does it feel more like a budget or premium phone?

Oh, NVIDIA have always been a shitstorm. From making defective PS3 GPUs (the subject of this meme) to the constant hell that is their Linux drivers to melting power connectors, I am astounded anyone trusts them to do anything.

Oh my

this is beautiful, and I hate it
