@kyle he also has like a 2 or 3 year old, right? Sounds like a true dad of the year.

@harshil I’ve basically stopped and accepted that it’s ok. But it’s a lot less fun.

How it started … how it’s going.
These little $40 Linux handhelds are pretty fun!

@thomasfuchs back in 2021 I tested the time to compile a specific version of git on a PowerBook G4 and an M1 Pro iMac. The M1 was 37 times faster.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

George W. Bush may think that a war against Iraq is the solution to our problems, but the reality is, it will only serve to create far more.

@kyle the “lite” model has a much weaker CPU, but base is $330 shipped, maybe justifiable. With storage and ram prices as they are, if I got one I’d probably go pro or max. transparent purp is only on the $$$ models of course.

@kyle I missed a pretty big discount on AliExpress yesterday and that might be the nudge I need to hold off. My Steam Deck remains the most value I’ve gotten for a piece electronics in the last five years.

@kyle the reasons I’m convincing myself not to get one:
Already have a 3DS XL, DSi XL, and a steam deck.
Never really go anywhere anyway
Can use a telescopic controller on my phone for single screen, which is already 120hz oled
Don’t have time to play the games I already want to play anyway

But: none of those things are a transparent purple dual screen oled clamshell
