I completely agree that the switch is genuinely painful to hold on handheld mode for more than ten minutes. The controllers and buttons are too small, it’s flat, and generally not ergonomic. It’s definitely designed for child sized hands in mind and not adults. I do my best to avoid using it in handheld mode.

Meanwhile, my steam deck is a much superior design. The ergonomics are excellent, it fits my hands, the buttons are spaced apart well, and are adequately sized, and I can play for hours with no hand cramps.

However…

The switch absolutely trounces the deck on portability. The fact that it’s flat and small means that, even while in a case, it’s extremely easy to slip into a backpack and take on the go. The deck while in a case, however, is bulky and doesn’t fit in a backpack if I want to put anything else in there (like a book and my laptop).

They were each designed with different goals in mind. I hate the ergonomics of the switch, but really do appreciate how easy it is to take on the go. I love the ergonomics of the deck, but hate how cumbersome it is to take anywhere. Nintendo made the choice to sacrifice ergonomics, and valve made the choice to sacrifice portability. Unfortunately, no solution will be perfect, and I accept that.

Maybe they recognize what the clock looks like at 8:30.

A Ford Expedition from a car rental place. It felt like driving around a ten ton brick through molasses. It was the least responsive and awkward shit box I’ve ever had the displeasure of piloting. It was so bad I literally drove to the nearest rental place to exchange it for a smaller car.

Literally any ad. I hate advertising in all forms and it does nothing but piss me off. If your ad is intrusive enough, I’ll remember it well enough to never buy your product.

What exactly is a “man cold?”

Hey OP based on your description, I think you’d love Kena, Bridge of Spirits. It’s very colorful and cutesy with Pixar style graphics and dark souls style combat and difficulty (it’s seriously tough as nails in some parts).

No thanks.

I’ll switch to fucking Apple before I pay a subscription for Windows.

You really should seek therapy. There are specialists that help people manage their phobias.

I would find a different job

Extremely ill advised. I’m amazed it didn’t kill him.

Google is a private company that can choose who to do business with. By signing up to use the platform, you have to agree to their terms of service which state that they can decide to stop doing business with you at any time for any reason they deem. In this case, they chose to stop doing business with him by demonetizing his videos due to the allegations against him. He’s free to sue them, but that’s a battle that will be hard fought and could take years.

I am not

What country do you live in? Salmon roe is fairly cheap here (like $5-$8 for like two tablespoons at a restaurant).

I am so confused right now. I don’t see the joke written down anywhere. The post just links to an AI generated looking image of a woman in a red dress sitting on a red car in front of a building. Is that the joke itself?

Well this is an excellent reason to get it then.

ESH. The office temp for throwing the donuts and coffee onto the floor. You for not being understanding of this person’s gender identity, and also you for making this story up.

When did you figure out that you were adopted?

It’s me. I’m the problem.

Fuck
