I really don't understand this fixation on internal batteries from users. It's almost guaranteed to be the first thing to fail on your device, and turn it into e-waste.

I remember a Wirecutter review on beard trimmers, where they outright dismissed any product that didn't have an integrated battery that lasted more than an hour. I trim my beard about once a week and it takes me less than 5 minutes. (Sorry for the unrelated rant here, needed to get it off my system)

I have one that I got second-hand at some point, and used it for a while. I dusted it off a few months ago, but I find that the trackpads on the Steam Deck are so much better that it now feels like a sub-par experience. I just end up using an Xbox controller instead (I agree with the annoying lack of a second trackpad, and I also find the face buttons a little too out of the way).

I disagree with the AA batteries being a negative though. If you use rechargeable batteries and make sure to have spares, you can just swap them and charge without interrupting your session. It also becomes one less point of failure for the controller.

"She told Who Me?"

This managed to confuse me every time it was written, and it appeared a lot.

I thought it cute when I believed you were comparing bus service, but laughed out loud at "america's rails"

I've set Lutris to use GE-Proton-Latest as thé default Wine configuration. I do believe you might have some performance improvements over the standard Wine config.

I kid you not, opening this post on piefed.ca gave me "Internal Server Error" the first time.

From what I found online, just buying the replacement screen will cost upwards of 150$. I bought the phone for 300$, so I'm not very motivated 😅

Just wanted to say that I shattered my Pixel 6a's screen a few days ago. I didn't have a case.

Awesome! I tried emulating them on the Steam Deck, but the emulation layer seems to be messing with the input timing.
