Proof that cats aren’t a liquid after all because liquids cannot be compressed.

If anything this reflects badly upon Microsoft’s cloud business. Dynamically spinning up enough servers shouldn’t be an issue nowadays.

Well, by now the Supreme Court has been supplanted and intent to overthrow democracy has been shown. That’s a big difference to last time. So it’s not exactly the same situation.

But we’ll see how robust American democracy is.

Around that time we had the Nokia N900. For me it was the perfect phone. Debian as a base with Nokia’s (unfortunately proprietary) apps on top of X11. You could just recompile Linux apps like Gimp and it worked. Apps that were made for Palm’s WebOS worked.

Pidgin’s libpurple was used for all the instant messaging so just about any protocol just worked without any need for extra apps. You could easily hack the underlying system. People added functionality like using the light sensor as a button. Angry Bird’s first release was on that phone.

I miss it dearly. It was killed by Microsoft. Nothing ever managed to come close. That little 128 MB RAM machine had better multitasking than modern 8 GB phones.

I put off the switch so long because I didn’t know what udev was but I understood that it was important.

As someone who’s retired let me warn you that HR might have a word with you if you show up dressed like me.

Yeah, we’ve been training our family to call it just ME. I always know that a doctor knows jack shit about it when they starts saying things like “so then you felt sleepy…” It’s even further removed from ME than calling it fatigue.

The agreement wasn’t made with the Internet Archive but with OldUnreal so that they can distribute an installer that automatically downloads the games.

But hopefully it can be expanded to the later games as well.

From an outside perspective it’s so strange that this thing doesn’t work with Xbox live and other cloud providers. Or does it?

Until then Bazzite seems to be what you’re looking for. Although any other Linux Distribution should work as well. I put OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on my Deck to have more customisation options.

That’s a Steam Machine. The idea didn’t take off because it’s just a pre-built PC (and because they trusted other companies to do it for them). It’s a highly competitive market with very low margins.

When they announced the Deck they did recommend one particular small box as a development machine as it matched the Deck’s performance very closely. You might try looking for that. Although by now there are probably more powerful ones available for the same price.

Oh, yes, give me more controllers that can be held in each hand independently of each other! I loved that with the Wii. Playing Zelda with one hand in my lap and the other behind my head was so comfortable.

I didn’t like the Joycons of the Switch, though. They were too small and with too little grip for me. VR controllers (at least the Quest ones) feel nice. But for some stupid reason they can’t be used as regular controllers.

I hope the rumors are true and Valve can break that paradigm.

XcQ, no thank you!

Does nobody remember Animalympics? I watched that up and down as a kid! Interspersed with Disnep’s Robin Hood.

Not to be confused with the Pussy Examination at the vet next door.

Then again they said that Astrobot boosted the sales of their other games

And then they complain that their fruit garden isn’t working.

And indestructible Nokia phones!
