Don;t worry, your 401k will pay for it!

It’s a global issue, scum rises to teh top, and the same ones are everywhere.

Yeah, there are a lot of issues, but no Epstein.

Heck, Iran is more progressive than MAGA FFS.

Pakistan executes rapists, we elect them.

Valve lets them add DRM after launch, you buy a game and play it for months or even years and then BAM! you have online DRM or anti-tamper killing mods or a flippin rootkit for crappy cross platform multiplayer that never works, or adding a damn third party launcher along with the Ubislop levels of derp and Bamco/ATLUS inability to eveer patch anything that’s actually wrong but “fix” cracked DRM instantly…

Until I can count on Steam to let me keep what I flippin’ paid for they are beyond sus, and my (Crap, 1337, what a game count.) “Game Industry Guardian” becomes a “Meh, nah, I’ll use your forums to ask the dev if they plan a GOG release and maybe redeem some Humble keys if they’re cheap enough to consider it a demo for a GOG purchase later.”

Ah, I tend to soo all the configuring myself, half my stuff on the tablet I compiled from source.

Bazzite looked like good project, not for me as I loathe immutable distros, but I did run it via emulation and found the setup to be very straightforward and consoley. Turned me off, completely, but their attempt to simplify things and even using an immutable so it’s a lot harder to irrevocably break anything was a step in the right direction for making things “simple” for the people I can;t get to verify their chat fingerprint in Gajim.

Bazzite has an image specifically for it, and I’m running stock Debian Trixie on my ROG Flow tablet with no issues, don;t own the Ally X yet but I’m definitely looking it it over the Ally or any other as I want to run my own install not a Valve image and the Ally X uses a normal 2280 M.2 rather than the 2230 (which maxes at 2TB) my current ROG Flow or the Steam Deck does.

The ATM gives $50s, so I use those, but I prefer $20s as they are taken anywhere.

I’ve had a $45 bill and them tell me they can’t take a fifty.

ASUS ROG Ally X, put Linux on it, and you get by all the horrible Windows bloat that makes it crap. It’s great hardware, just the “X-Box” branding and Microslop OS that’s a problem.

I went from buying so much Nintendo stuff to 100% piracy after my third Switch broke, I lost all my saves because they force it on internal memory and encrypt that then sue the guy who wrote code to let you back it up locally, and then I found out most of my games played better on Yuzu (and now Eden) than they did on the actual hardware.

I ordered the original one, before it was ad subsidized, and they pushed an “updating” adding them to the ad-free device I paid many times the current price for.

After that I considered them a total loss.

And they’ll likely “forget” you are lifetime as often with them as they did with us early adopters who got it for cheap.

There’s a reason I use Jellyfin, now. Well, more than one.

Plex kept trying to charge me again, and every time I looked at it there was more clutter and spam being forced in front of my face by their “partners.”

Kodi on device, great interface especially when you are using touch, if I need remote access I swap to Jellyfin. There’s even plugins to sync between the two so your stats and history don;t get messed up by using both.

There are so few sites that should leave a cookie I just set it to purge everything on browser close, and then make exceptions for the ones who actually should leave a cookie.

Pretty sure every browser now has the option to dump all the data when it closes.
