  • I watched a YouTuber telling something like:

    “I cannot believe Apple’s biggest premium VR tech wants to change the world… And they are advertising it with… Fucking spreadsheets”

    I am paraphrasing ofc, but the meaning was that this could have been a pretty good toy for everyone, but they are trying to sell it as a work-buddy thingy, yeah seeing those spreadsheets focus was kinda dystopian (like in Ready Player One where they are caged doing work or something hah), watching movies in crazy sites yeah, that was what would have sell it more for me, and other ppl, if it wasn’t crazily expensive.


  • Samsung does more for android than Google does for goodness sake.

    I agree with you, even when I dislike One UI… I think Google although simpler is more of my liking… But oh boy stock AOSP is so limited that for some users it is even too similar to iOS, with the distinction that you can sideload easier (for now).

    Lots of features that Google releases each Android iteration literally have been here in One UI, MIUI, Color OS you name it.





  • I have noticed Firefox Beta being slower than Chrome/Cromite in my SD 865 with 6 GBS of RAM device, either opening the app or websites, also it tends to stay alive in the background way less time than Chromium based browsers, but I still chose to use Firefox because of the extension support, and because Chromium has been in the enshitification path for so long.

    but Windows is so astonishingly terrible on handhelds

    The way you are telling me this reminds me of the old HP windows laptops I used to use that their battery life did not even last 2 hours lol (I eventually got a MacBook Pro and that was a massive upgrade).

    I still don’t picture windows doing that great with laptops (as in optimization), but I don’t know, I have seen very good laptops with good specs very recently that it could maybe make up for Windows being not optimized for anything.

    I’m not sure what else they’d need to do. Other than still produce it, I suppose 😅

    Yeah this is the part I’d be worried about if I get a Steam Deck and it has no successor 😅

    often have worse frame pacing and battery life especially compared to the OLED model.

    Yeah, honestly the fact that the Deck with less raw power leaves similar results is a huge positive point I guess, I honestly haven’t seen anyone complaining that much because of the performance issues.

    And yeah, better battery life is always good in my book, I think other handhelds have a joke of battery life.

    Huh, TIL the Pi had competition.

    and will have the longest support.

    I thought Valve wasn’t known for a long support for handheld, at least that is one comment a friend of mine said (that the Deck would be forgotten as the Steam controller).
