Two weeks ago my step mother asked me “Can you help my friend connect her PC to the wifi, it runs Windows XP” users are fucking weird.

The actual answer, there is no reason to switch. The vast majority of users do not care about Linux or why they would want to. For us there are lots of benefits and things we enjoy about getting away from Windows but for them “why?”

I also have a great gaming PC so I do most of my major AAA gaming on that. People will talk about how great games like Elden Ring, RE4, or even Cyberpunk run on the deck but the experience is so degraded on the mobile platform that I’d rather play other games on Deck.

Things like Emulation, JRPGS, Platformers, Indie games fucking excel on the deck. The experience playing them there is so much better when being able to take it and go places.

If you are only interested in playing major AAA games or shooters, probably not worth it

The problem with the Switch is that it’s requirements for the dock are really strange, what makes it worse is that it’s in a hardware level, so the dock has to be specifically designed for it.

I don’t need it…. I don’t need it ….I already have a purple back and dbrand front … but I want it lol!

I wonder if we will ever see a proper return to form for GPU pricing. As you mentioned, most if not all other PC hardware has come down to pre-pandemic pricing but without GPUs joining them it makes budget builds impossible*

Seeing the RX 7600 leap so far ahead in higher resolutions in CS is interesting. Ultimately both seem… ugh.
