Go to their github to get an invite to their private signal group for support.

The cheapest entry price with the most expensive ongoing cost?

Obviously it’s because people are stupid.

The base already exists, wine is leveraging qemu for the cpu arch emulation and already has the windows translation layer.

I don’t expect them to actually do it, but it would be on the same scale of a project as the proton project that’s worked so well for the with the deck.

Maybe epic will do it to get a real deck competitor online, not that I trust those jackals to do it right.

Steam could step in with a proton layer if they wanted to. Android is technically linux already and the newest snapdragon stuff is comparable to the steam deck in raw power.

We’re ripe for some multiplatform shenanigans.

Wait until the new iPhone kills the mobile gaming market. It’s probably going to be more powerful than the switch 2. Slap on a backbone controller or a dock and you don’t need a game console at all.

The current gen android stuff is also pretty capable but nobody makes games that aren’t gacha trash for android.

Pushing the leading edge of phone design opens new use cases, it’s not always just about “doing the same shit, slightly faster”

Yeah, the thing is what, 36x9? They’re banana phones or something now.

“Why don’t we sell more phones?”

Puts out a phone at 200% the cost per specs, ignores the biggest high end market and blows their marketing money 18 months early on every single release.

The couldn’t do this worse if they tried.

It’s better to buy three used phones that are more powerful and cheaper and keep those out of the landfill than a fairphone.

I know this philosophy has to start somewhere but it’s just bad from a value, performance and supported accessories view.

Buy a usbc dac for everything you have with that plug from 1975. Join us in the modern world.

The most compelling fairphone hardware is like getting the award for tallest dwarf.

I find the size of the phone is super important to me so I also use phonesized.com to compare it to whatever my current handset is.

Just in time for Nintendo to commandeer another chipset.

I almost got a new job but the employer couldn’t pay me because I refused to give my real name.

Remember that time I got salty because I was using a distro that’s always 10 years out of date and is actively user hostile?

People who actually scan more than one page per year.

Nothing comes close to a scanner with a sheet feeder for this job.

TIL that Samsung is near bankruptcy.

I think the most popular phone in the last ten years is an IPhone 5 w a broken screen.

Or you could put a usbc dongle on all of your headphone cables for $1 each and finally move out of the 80s tech bubble.

Android has gotten high refresh and variable refresh which is great for battery life. Other than that just raw speed, which is usually just throttled down for better battery life and monstrous huge screens.

As far as I can see on the apple side they haven’t seen anything but incremental, and sometimes increments in the wrong direction, changes in the last 6 years.
