Do you want Reavers? Because this is how you get Reavers.

Interesting, you're right that the Steam Deck is actually heavier, I just weighed both and TBH the Switch 2 still feels heavier to me, maybe because it's just denser, but that's apparently purely illusory. My measurement results don't match the posted values (I get 550g for the Switch 2 and 696g for the Steam Deck LCD) but those numbers are probably thrown off because I've put aftermarket screen protectors on both of them, as well as a popular brand aftermarket SSD upgrade in the Steam Deck.

Maybe, or maybe leverage, like blackmail info.

Nope, not hard at all. Dumping to desktop mode is an option right under the power section of the main menu, and past that it works pretty much like a regular Linux distro.

It's actually lighter than a Switch 2, surprisingly. It was so much heavier than the original Switch that I was sure nothing considered "handheld" would ever top it.

Meanwhile, I often can't even get new clients to believe the demonstrably provable skills I actually have. One has to wonder what his magic trick was...

Energy density is important, but I would prefer the batteries to be less flammable.

I think that was meant to be a joke.

Probably, but on the plus side now we know the plants might actually be able to remove lead pollution from the soil. That's not the entire solution to the problem, obviously, but it's a good start.

Detracting from my point in this way isn't helpful. Yes, of course I know they (the various LLM models) don't really "know" things or have any consciousness whatsoever. They do however respond to questions from people who can and do, respectively. And when doing so, they've (the various LLM models) shown to be very poor at calculating context, so this type of sarcasm in the GP post can easily be mistaken for a genuine opinion, and recounted as such, which is more dangerous as a general pattern than I'm guessing you suspect, or you wouldn't be purposefully gaslighting me while ignoring the point to be a grammar nazi, then switch to waxing poetic and metaphorical mid-sentence, violating your own complaint about the misuse of literal terms.

You really ought to tag posts like this as sarcasm, because otherwise AI won't know.

This is nothing new. All we're seeing is a concerted attempt to erode what little public trust Linux has gained over the past 3 decades. Running Linux in the 90's was no different; people viewed it and its proponents with fear and mistrust. I'm not sure however that the intervening years of viewing us merely with comedic disdain was overall that much better though.

It's all lies! The water was stolen and sold to aliens!

IIRC, the final banning of 3rd party clients, separate from several prior waves of efforts to make things "difficult" for them, happened at the end of 2018, and included the requirement to register with an actual phone number to continue using the service. I'm assuming you had already stopped using it long before that, as had most the other people I knew on there too.

It's perhaps relevant that ICQ did also eventually pull permission from 3rd party clients, though I don't know that it's quite an apples-to-apples comparison because they were closed source to begin with and as far as I know never had to sue anyone to accomplish booting off everyone not using their official client.
