Definitely do report them. I’ve already banned a bunch of these and will continue to do so. We are reliant on reports, however, since we don’t have eyes everywhere. :)

I use Kubuntu on my Surface Go because it got way too warm under Windows. It’d work fine most of the time but I just got unhealthily warm to the point it’d get too hot to touch under very minor workload. My SO’s father, who’s been a huge proponent of Linux for decades now, suggested I give it a try and it’s been great. Some minor functionality restrictions but nothing I can’t work around. The touchscreen and the stylus work - that’s all I need for school

say what again?

oh absolutely, I’m the last one to judge someone for a gaming console. Sony is definitely not a clean company either. I’m also more of a couch gamer nowadays - desks are just so uncomfy

I get your excitement. Personally, I’d be down to get a Switch that’s not lagging behind in terms of hardware, but I just can’t justify the price tag for barely anything new it brings to the table. Sure, the performance is apparently a lot better, but apart from that not enough has changed to warrant the purchase for me. I haven’t been excited for Zelda for a couple years now, the other Nintendo IPs don’t really interest me, I don’t play on the go as much as I used to, and I have a PS5 where most titles will probably still run better than on Switch 2 despite the hardware upgrade. Plus like you’ve said, I don’t want to buy into Nintendo’s recent anti-consumer practises.

Only game I’m playing on Switch is Overwatch and even that’s not been played in the past couple months - console’s just collecting dust at this point. I used to be a very big advocate of the console, and I still am, but it doesn’t really have a place for me right now.

Do you have any other consoles or is Switch your only one? I think in that case I could see myself getting a Switch 2

will you be getting one? I can’t remember the last time I was less excited for a console launch, personally, outside of xbox console releases

I’ve got a Surface Go 2 running Kubuntu and it’s been running fine. Performance overall seems to be better compared to Windows, and the touchscreen works fine as well.

I’ve experienced some kinks with the Surface Pen’s responsiveness in that sometimes drop-down dialogues won’t be properly selectable with the pen, it’s skipping options for some reason if I hover over one, so I have to use my finger instead.

Apart from that, I have an extra program for an on-screen keyboard since, for some reason, the pre-installed on-board keyboard is only available when logging on the device.

Most multitouch functionality is also available right out of the box, like pressing the screen with two fingers at the same time to simulate a right-click.

That’s so nice of you - likewise :)

Ooh, looking forward to it! 👀

Love your take and call to action. Appreciate it :) and I’m not surprised it’s coming from you either :)

Thanks for your input. Maybe things have changed for the better? I doubt a github page with a detailed wiki and guide on how to setup the device for Linux would exist if the performance were as bad as you describe it. Then again, maybe there is a big difference between Go 1 and 2. I’ll give it a go and see if it works

According to the github page I’ve linked to, I shouldn’t need to install linux-kernel. Which Surface were you trying to install Linux onto? Thanks for the help :)

I liked A Link Between Worlds. It’s got the double the map size because of Lorule, but it’s not overwhelmingly large like BotW or TotK, so travelling from one place to another - especially with fast travelling - felt really fine. The secrets that are only accessible via travelling to Lorule were also cool.

People are scared of new things and grow complacent once they find their place in a community or on an app, in this case. It’s the same reason people will argue to death about needing Instagram, Tiktok, Facebook, whatever, and not leave any of them

Everyone not vegan should watch

No doubt!

You’re welcome to do so! There’s a smallish HK community I’ve been subscribed to for a while now but there’s not been too much activity there. The game’s so universally loved, though, that there’s bound to be people looking for content. So more power to you if you find something to post - I’ll be happy to see something different than only FromSoft titles. :)

You too my guy 🐧

Appreciate your enthusiasm, dude. Thanks for that initial push :)

Happy cakeday?

Ayy, lemmy.zip

It’s not - quite the contrary. I was just wondering what the commenter that I replied to meant when they said that it took them some getting used to. For me, it’s just a slight change in design and a different icon
