As much as it pains me to say it, the Switch 2's short battery life is a real bummer

I’ve been hanging around here for over a year, I know the vibe.

I’m both dumber and smarter than anyone realises. Saying things that lead to „told you so” is like going through motions now.

I’m not really convincing that guy since I doubt he debates in good faith. He represents American brand of libertarianism - think Elon Musk simps. Old school libertarians like Adam Smith recognised that a free market doesn’t exist without state regulation. At this point I’m just exposing how childish that American libertarianism is although it seems to be very popular amongst gamers and this community in particular. I don’t mind being inconvenient to people and I know it makes people pause since those mass downvotes say more about them than about me.You are not exposing stuff. You are acting like a childish jerk who stubbornly ignores other people for your own sense of righteousness. Doubling down and refusing to listen to others does not make you a better person in the long run.

I don't fit in either but actively being rude is not just not fitting in but being purposefully rude. There is a difference and your refusal to acknowledge that is so that you can avoid having to look at yourself and your actions critically. You don't have to change but there are repercussions from the existence of others seeing your actions and if you don't care about them do not expect others to care about you.

Or is this as made up as the other argument that I had here just now lol.

Can you point me to something I refuse to acknowledge specifically? Or is this as made up as the other argument that I had here just now lol.Can I be completely honest? The libertarian contested definition aside the thing that made me realize you were being purposefully obstinate and contrarian for your own giggles was; > While I appreciate USB-C port at the top so you can rest your Switch on your legs and charge it at the same time, that’s not exactly convenient. Literally the definition of convenient is it being more accommodating or more comfortable or easy to do. Having 2 ports on either side that charge and do data is incredibly convenient and much better than a singular since charging is a constant of all wireless electronics and this makes that process more convenient. And then the person you were chatting to responded practically that and you bailed the conversation cause you couldn't be contrarian. You are purposefully stubborn and acting in a way that doesn't make you even different it's just a similar as always level of self righteous.

Steam Deck is overall a real bummer. I don't understand why people are buying it, the only real "reason" is the exclusive games, of which there are none. I'm happy to wait for Portal 3 to be available on Nintendo Switch 8. I can already play the original PC games on my Switch with no Proton that can break when a game is patched because pretty much everything gets ported.

As to USB-C location - port on top solves being able to charge while resting Switch on your knees but doesn’t solve the issue of how goofy the entire setup is in constrained spaces like on a train or plane and I’m speaking from experience.

I understand if you hate on steam along with Microsoft and Nintendo but you why are you shilling for them?I don’t hate on anyone, I literally have some hardware from all of the major companies. It’s possible to have different opinions on different things they do. They are products of corporations that are so huge and internally disconnected that end result can be inconsistent so that’s just how things are. Of course all exist for profit so I rarely get angry with consequences of capitalism unless taken to extreme. Today’s Valve is scummiest of all, very little redeeming qualities and that’s my honest opinion, not being contrarian. It irks me doubly because they are so idolised. Valve monopolised PC digital storefronts. They don’t make games, they make digital casinos. They market those casinos to children. They have a history of abandoning things. The only reason they fund Wine development is to safeguard and entrench their monopoly even further. It was CodeWeavers and not Valve that sponsored Wine development through difficult times. In 10-15 years, if they are successful in their plans, they’ll turn SteamOS into something like modern day Android, another locked down platform with no major benefit to desktop Linux. I’ll be there with „told you so” but that actually gives me no kick.
