    Hardware Regret buying OLED - Considering Lite

    I have the Switch Lite. I don't want a device a portable gaming device much bigger than this. It feels 'just right', size-wise. I personally do not like to use wireless (bluetooth) joycons, for health & other reasons, but I won't go into that here unless you want to know more. No reason for me...

    Misc Why are phones so big now?

    * dropping phones adds to their profitability (buy new phone or buy new parts) * no SD card slot adds to their profitability (insane storage prices) * not including a headphone jack adds to their profitability You didn't mention this, but non-removable batteries adds to their profitability (and...

    When does replaying a game become a waste of time?

    When boredom sets in, or you feel that your brain can not only be stimulated by some other activity, but it should be stimulated by some other activity, then do that instead. You might be attracted to that familiar thing, because you know it will bring you that familiar 'fix', and you may not...

    Linux and Windows Q&A

    Mint is very polished and easy for me to get along with as it is. I expect it would be ideal for the majority of existing Windows users. The xfce version of MX Linux is fast but quite a bit different, requiring a lot of time and effort to get it the way I want it (as an ex-Windows user). I know...

    Which game would you say changed your life?

    I want to be buried with my copy of Blur. I don't know if that ranks as "changed my life" but it might change my death. We are currently married & will be married for life.

    Who wants to try limb lengthening surgery?

    " Certain genetic anomalies, cerebral palsy, bone injury, poliomyelitis, and other states might cause one leg to be abnormally short in comparison to the other." In that case I can sort of see why someone would want to do it. If it's 100% for cosmetic reasons, I would never have the guts, even...

    Post text jokes here

    Getting somewhat back on topic of the original post. I feel it should have been re-worded like this: What do these 3 things have in common? * a burnt pizza * a pregnant woman * a frozen beer The answer tells us what they have in common. It doesn't tell us what is different.

    Funny, but the answer doesn't answer the malformed question.

    The problem with old Smart TVs... They start running slow.

    All SmartTV manufacturers spy on us, just like just about every mainstream device we buy nowadays. It's all about the spyware. Not a peep from the mainstream.

    Being obsessed with EoF is good for you

    I thought I finally got it right. I propose an EOTF abbreviation, if they must be used. Needless confusing abbreviations are annoying.

    Thread for Random Stuff

    Today I wondered (again) what happened to Toshiba laptops. They seemed scarcer. It had crossed my mind in the past, but now I actually looked it up. They sold off their business years ago. Oh, now it all makes sense.

    Unpopular Opinions 2.0

    I think that is fast becoming popular opinion, if it isn't already. They look like unnatural balloons, don't move naturally, don't feel natural, don't take to extremes of temperature like natural boobs do, and on top of all that, they need to be removed after x years because they don't last...

    '25 thru the lens of a 3DS camera

    I enjoyed your post but for me personally, I can't use the 3DS camera for pretty much anything, let alone important events like weddings. When I take pictures I like to obtain more information than I remembered (ideally), and at the best quality I can practically carry, even if I am just...
