Never give up, never surrender!

Maybe, but it was unnecessary regardless

I’m not saying I love the fact that they are gone, but my main point was dude didn’t have to be an ass about it. I know having to purchase extra accessories is much less than ideal, but power+3.5mm adapters are quite cheap, and shouldn’t be a hassle to use in bed

Ideally, we have a headphone jack built in with out losing out on anything, but unfortunately that isn’t where we are at. We have to find other solutions if you don’t like the phones that still include them. Some people are fine with Bluetooth, some are OK with adapters, and some go out of their way to shit on OP for enjoying his new stuff

You know, this comment just made me realize my phone didn’t have one. I guess when wireless ear buds are the same price as wired these days, you don’t even really notice

What is even better than that, is that if you really need or want a headphone jack, you can get a phone that has one. You don’t even have to try to bring other people down to do it

I’ve also just gotten GrapheneOS. Got a Pixel 7 Pro just for that reason. I am absolutely loving it

I’m using my last month of Game Pass before switching to Linux. I just want to thank everybody here and Lemmy wide for being so friendly and helpful about all things Linux. You guys have taken out all the stress and worry from the transition

I lost my Switch in a fire unfortunately, but thank you for the heads up. Now I’ve gotta figure out what emulator made it the farthest before shutting down

I quit using shops years ago because they all ended up being paywalled. It’s been shown time and time again that ‘unrelated donations’ is not a loop hole. Most shops weren’t even unrelated. You had to donate an undumped game or eshop credit towards one. I understand obtaining the games in the first place isn’t free, but taking money for anything Nintendo related is a bad move, and will be seen as selling their copyrighted material in a court of law

I’m also not ashamed to say, I pirate to get free shit. You start charging, I’ll put in more effort to get it for free. There are ways to run your own shop, which I did for a while, but I got tired of messing with the network and just used USB install over DBI for the most part

Awesome, I appreciate the help

Perfect, thank you!

Is setting up a VM in Linux any different than doing it in Windows? Would I just copy the files over when it is finished?

Are these launchers that provide a wrapper similar to Steam and Proton? Do you recommend one over the other, or is it dependent on game?

Alright, I don’t have anything capable of HDR so that is no worries. No (intrusive) anticheat, no game pass. I’m sure a few random games have issues. Doesn’t sound like it should be a big deal though. Thank you

That’s what I was thinking but I just wanted to make sure. I really appreciate all the help

Thanks! I didn’t even think to look for a compatibility list. I’m quick to check them for emulators, but it didn’t even cross my mind

Thanks for the help. I’m not fond of invasive a anticheat as it is, played like 10 minutes of Fortnite when it was a survival game, and I’m sure I can use the high seas to get around game pass. I’ll have to check a couple of specific games, but I think I might be pretty good to go

This may be a silly question, but as far as online games that work, it shouldn’t matter if my friends are on Windows, right?

I’m mentally preparing for the switch. Would you mind naming some of the games keeping you on Windows?

I love to hear it

I couldn’t help but cry.

Me neither friend. What a great story

I can’t wait! I’ve been on a cheap prepaid phone for YEARS and it barely functions at all at this point. I’m very excited about using a custom OS again. I think my last one was cyanogen mod on a Galaxy S3 if I am remembering correctly
