  • I semi agree. I have a shitty DSL connection but even with 5MiB/s downloads, a game will be there in like 2 days or so? And that is totally fine!

    I get 3rd world countries, my standards are just low end normality in many parts of the country.

    But still, games are huge and this leads to 1½ or more of disk usage. Repacks often save less than half the space, so if you want to share it and also use it at the same time, you will keep the repack and waste a lot of storage space. I have 4TB now and even then run out of space. I would very much prefer having the files there, linking (or copying, doesnt matter on BTRFS) the files to my bottles sandbox and using them there






  • Of course not but it uses USB so you cannot block that which increases attack surface for no reason

    Nobody can hack you via a headphone jack

    And Apple heavily reduces the volume on non-Apple devices, which is very audible on bigger headphones. Mine are made to be used on normal hardware but they are already quite limited. Fine, but at the total max volume.

    Audio is extremely easy with modern ICs.

    Yes and that is why DACs are stupid

    causing wear on your port (where you need to remove the display to replace it, and that you use for charging AND data transfer) is stupid

    It is not okay that they cost minimum 10€

    Low quality usb plugs will cause wear on your port. I had cheap ones and they were fine but got a bad contact very quickly.

    Builtin jacks are so amazing. They just work. They make tech pleasant, instead of worrying about silly connectivity issues that nobody should care about
