Giving you a heads up as a Onyx Boox Nova 3 owner. These devices are poorly supported. You’d get maybe a year of “updates”, meaning the bundled apps are updated. But after that you are on your own.

It’s a brilliant e-reader don’t get me wrong, and I’ll take it over a Kobo or a Kindle any day. But go in assuming that you’d want to keep it offline.

Spyro 1-3. First game set the mood. Second game refined the formula, last game had fun with it. Still play it to this day.

That was the reason we did it, though a wirelessly earbud and a call was less headache inducing.

The last time I used bags the system lost its file system. So probably the other one. Exfat4 formatted

Because years ago I made my PC password with Capslock on since a warning would show.

So genius 13 year old me said, “hey even if someone knew my password, they’d never know how it was inputted.”

So my actual wake key is capslock.

Only my PC uses this old password method now, everything else is passphrase+uniquekey

Like google+lemmyworld

Depends the OS.

Windows its Space

On Linux shift since space will fill in the password field with spaces

Orchestral my pick is Journey, with Uncharted as a close second

Actiony my pick is Scott Pilgrim vs The World The Game. Love the band.

Retro - Chrono Trigger/Spyro 1-3/Pokemon Ruby Sapphire Emerald.

ArrowOS on android 13. Waiting for a 14 build before I upgrade again. I’ve also had good luck with the unofficial Lineage OS ports.

I wish I was. North American

I have a Poco X3 Pro running custom android. Running a phone with custom Android is the only way I can run the OS now. I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x which has finally given up the ghost that started with Android 6 and I can install Android 14. What killed it was the screen delaminating from the digitizer probably because of battery swelling.

With that being said, I know my next phone is probably going to be an iPhone. Unlocking phones these days is not as easy as it use to be, and many of my issues of iOS of the past are gone. The only thing I am waiting on is that third party app store support.

Sums it up perfectly. I feel that many of your “suck” list can be resolved if there is a proper third party app store for iPad, like f-droid. So it’s not a question of if, it’s more a question of when.

I am with you with the right to repair. If I had the spare cash I’d replace my laptop with a Framework.

I’m going to be honest. I am of the opinion that I don’t want MacOS on my iPad. iPadOS when I didn’t have a keyboard attached made sense and worked great. But it’s missing core functionality.

If I was to associate it with Linux. The Desktop Environment of iPadOS is excellent and I don’t want it to change. But it’s missing key features in the kernel or missing key drivers which would make it a better experience.

I thought I mentioned it. But I had a Logitech Combo Touch Keyboard case for this, and you are correct a Keyboard + Touchpad combo is absolutely needed for a comfortable experience.

I’ve only reverted back for long typing sessions, my hand craps are only just going away now. I need a more sturdy keyboard accessory and I don’t think they exists. And since the case is already falling apart, I’ll probably just make my own replacement with what I can salvage from here. Need to make a 3D Printable friction hinge that doesn’t break and is thin. I have a long list of things I want to do first.

API changes, I use to use Infinity for Reddit and it was good. Then they killed it effectively.

So I moved to Eternity for Lemmy until support dropped. Now I’m on Voyager.

Good apps design keeps me using a platform and I like the slower pace of Lemmy. I still use reddit for time to time especially for smaller communities. But do my part here.

Ditto and I prefer Saints Rows 2 & 3, over most of Rock Stars newer GTA offerings.

I am in agreement with you, while I have my own tier list for GTA Games, I do find myself wanting to replay San Andreas and Vice City Stories more than 5.

I will argue that if I was just going for a GTA game to goof off in (like flying around in a Tank and Hijacking military vehicles), GTA V has more toys within it’s map.

Honestly for art I’ve started using my iPad for it, and transferring the results onto my Mint install. Since mint or gnome (not sure which one) integrates Apple file sharing into the files app.

I too install Linux Mint, though Fedora Silverblue and Kinote is another good alternative.

The FunkoPop Store EB Games here in Canada were re-labeled to GameStop recently. They’re still in every Mall in the land from what I’ve seen. Though they are doing better. Game selection isn’t what it use to be, but the variety is growing now. I was surprised when I found Manga in our local GameStop.

Not exactly my cup of tea, but catering to “Nerd” culture, and going beyond “Merch” is something I can get behind, since it’s rare to see another store not selling the same old drivel as everyone else.
