I had similar issues with Linux on AMD.

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?"

This is really up to you, if you have the budget/space for dedicated hardware then you will benefit from it. However, if you are on a budget/space constraints then you could setup some containers in docker either running on the system or in a VM then transfer them over in the future.

Has it been confirmed that it is free? I haven't found anything saying anything about it at all.

100% but its a lot easier for a business to go "we need to purchase X number this intel product" vs "We need to spend X on product from some company your non-technical ass has never heard of"

In the consumer/small business space I think we will be fine for options but the intel NUC was great for a lot of business applications and I will miss it!

A legend to the very end, you and the other mods helped keep the fire alive.

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 am not OP but since they didn't provide any I went and found some

Personally, I think this is a case of people trying to make the policing issue in the USA a global one. While I acknowledge that many countries, including mine, have problems with policing, I don't believe it is highly controversial to consider hiring someone with a background in law enforcement.

 

The PCBs and switches for my all-button fight pads didn't arrive before Friday, but I did manage to get the RP2040s in beforehand. Since it's a long weekend and I wanted to play some Mario Maker, I quickly put this together. It takes the keyboard and maps the keys to a controller, and it works really well.

Its the only reason I am still using Plex, I don't know if we will ever get Jellyfin on even half the devices that Plex is on. : (
