a friend of mine sold me his semi-new Surface Laptop Go (the original model), and for 400€ it's a super cool touch screen laptop, using Gnome is super slick, and I am fine to be restricted at 250gb ssd/8gb ram.

but paying it more than double the price would be insane imho

that shit is making me crazy.. why do I, random European dude, remember trump breaking the Iran deal all those years ago, and no fucking journalist today dares to put a wee little reminder at the beginning of every article just to get all up to speed? wtf man

I just reported the number on the cd cover, I guess they optimized even further on consoles, absolutely incredible... nowadays android apps will recommend 4gb ram for smooth performance jfc

maybe Bottles on Linux is doing some magic behind the scenes, but I didn't have trouble running it on a intel N100 mini pc

Look, I have been replaying Prince of Persia Sands of Time these last few days and it's just fucking incredible how streamlined it is.

the pause menu is just resume/options/quit? no inventory management, skill tree, quest tracker, or other bullshit? Remember this is the IP that spawned Assassin's Creed

also.. it still looks great, with relatively detailed interiors and architecture, great animations and soundtrack, characters quipping about and it all manages to run on 256Mb of ram??

I just recently found out about Thomson's "Easy TVs" LINK

Actual dumb TVs, with a good range on inputs and at a cheap price, they seem to be aimed at hotels and such.

The downside is that they only do 1080p at 40" or 43" but the appeal of getting one before they disappear from the market is strong (also I don't have any 4k media in my library so my worry is more about future proofing than any current necessity)

not an online game but Moonring is an amazing and underrated retro RPG that will run on anything! itch page with the Linux executable

does immich have an option to automatically delete older, backed-up pics from devices in order to free up space and not worry about running out disk space on smartphone?

I tried to search the docs and it seems it's missing

the weird looking holes are just to make it compatible with two sizes of plugs, so really it's just the best wall socket

it's the reason why the original Odroid Go it's so special to me... it's all built around an ESP32 microcontroller and it does emulate only NES, GB, GBC and a couple more, while honestly not even being perfect at it, but goddamn... it boots in like 1 second, even directly to the last game you were playing, it has no settings whatsoever, the battery lasts for like 7 hours it's such a neat little device.

and it's funny because in my head that it's the device that kickstarted this whole retro handheld emulation craze, but it is the only one to take such a minimalistic approach

what brand is your television? I wanna avoid it at all costs
