The only thing I dislike about it, having seen the in-store demos, is the fringing on text and hard edges. It can looks like chromatic abberation in very contrasty games. The OLED subpixel layout just isn’t quite ideal, especially at 1280x800 7.4".
The LCD version has less issues there. Less gaps between the pixels and a standard RGB vertical strip layout.
I always, always have the urge to update my image and flatpaks even when I have zero reason to. And if I have nothing productive to do anyways, why not lol.
On Windows I always delay big updates by, at minimum, a week. I don’t trust them.
Hold up, I can trigger a trauma response:

Wii U cannot dump GameCube games sadly. I wish it worked too
Why not just do this actually legit with PS1 and Saturn games
There’s a long thread on Mastodon by the main Arm Mac Graphics dev for Asahi Linux. Perhaps one of the fastest developed and most stable graphics drivers ever made, thanks to a couple amazing developers but also very very much thanks to Rust. And one of the kernel devs flippantly calls it an “unmerged toy project” as if it’s not kernel devs’ fault that useful stuff and even small non-breaking improvements to existing systems are so incredibly hard to get merged. Not to mention that writing the entire m1 graphics driver in Rust ended up actually thoroughly documenting the DRM subsystem’s API for the first time as a side effect because everything the Rust code interacts with pretty much gets strictly defined within Rust’s type systems and lifetimes.
Pseudoregalia was fantastic
Also if an update gets completely borked while installing (i.e. you lost power), then it just boots into the version you were running previously thanks to the A/B update scheme. It’s neat.
Original wipeout? Phantom HD Edition.
Wipeout Omega Collection for PS4 includes HD+Fury+2049 (all of the content from PS3 and Vita), and a lot of the PSP content had made its way into HD+Fury iirc.
For everything else, your options are emulator or tracks/ships ported over to BallisticNG. IMO you can just play BallisticNG as is though, it’s an amazing game.
This. Do I want an OLED deck? Yes. Do I need one? Absolutely not. I like my deck enough and I can wait for Steam Deck 2.
NGL that block pattern thing is something I never really noticed but it makes a lot of sense. The messy way to do it in C++ would be with a lambda that you then just evaluate, but being about to avoid that and instead using standard scoping syntax for the same thing neat. I’m pretty sure I’ve even done this before without even thinking about it.
And if you put all of the definitions you need right at the top it’s super easy to split out into a function if/when you need it elsewhere
