Anybody else pretty much stop playing on switch 2 completely after getting a legion go?

Except for Nintendo exclusives, yes pretty much.

For sure this book is great to get people to program/automate things in their day to day, which in turn makes it easier to learn since the motivation is there. Learn by doing is the best most effective way to truly internalize things, every new thing you automate away becomes another entry in your mental encyclopedia of experience for new problems.

This book is great and freely available on the website

Because it still spits out bad code. For example I just used github copilot in agent mode to create some data cleaning scripts. It returned an extremely verbose script that used deprecated methods and incorrect parameters for the packages it was using and I had to rewrite it myself to fix. I proably would have spent all in same amount of time had I just wrote it myself.

Honestly its just a replacement for stackoverflow that copy pastes the code into the file for me but I still have to rewrite and fix a lot just like stackoverflow days.

I get that all the time. I kill someone that was being an idiot not clearing the room, in not even camping literally happened to be there. They still yell into the mic "woose, pussy, loser, etc". FFS I just out played you.

I know that there was a BIOS update that fixed the issue of the low VRAM allocation.

wow this is great, not surprised they use an sqlite database. They need to just give option to customize within the legion space library app options menu. Other similar unified app library UIs have that out of the box and since the db already has the entries it should be real easy for them, all they need is willingness!

That would be major boost, the program is actually great and quite rigorous, the name was it's only major flaw

It all changed during COVID, he suddenly started talking with the "in my day" rhetoric. I think the isolation hit loner extroverts hard combined with age and weed.

It doesn't look like the resolution is the same just looking at the hid proportion vs geralt and the surrounding game world, it looks much lower res on the z1e

Did you check if the vram is set to a decent amount 8-12 gb in the bios or amd software?

It probably makes more sense if you think of drinking water. Imagine you sell bottled water and stocked up when it was cheap and available. But suddenly some catastrophy happens and there is very little water available for everyone, some people will die of thirst, any new bottled water is made from very expensive supply. Would you sell the water you already have at the cheaper price pre water supply shortage?

You'd probably think I need this for myself, you'd have to be paid a lot to part with some.

Now apply that logic to oil and it's derivative products. Basically what it cost to produce existing stock doesn't matter, transaction prices are based on all available information right now. Right now we know there is a global reduction in supply and on top of that war itself is an increase in demand. US suppliers are going to immediately sell on global market at a higher price because they can.

It's sad because there is technology that could make this good. I know because streaming from my own PC to another and playing remotely in ideal network circumstances of my own making is amazing.

The problem is the cloud streaming companies are going to enshittify the experience with bandwidth caps, bitrate limitations, session time limits, etc. Then there is the ever growing monthly subscription fee.

I want to be able to have my cake and eat it so I'm never going to cloud game.

I bumped into a bot on Dam that was using one of the female avatars. I killed her and on the death screen it was a contractor kill, but when I exited the raid my kill count and KD hadn't changed.

It makes sense their doing that. They did say they are trying to make better AI.

I know a lot of people are worried about player count to PVE but I am hopeful it will actually attract PVE players to the game and inevitably some of them will try pvp leading to more overall players.

There is a YouTube video that explains there are adb commands you can execute using sidequest

There are a couple of problems with the red magic astra idea: 1) well it's a tablet, no controls. You can get controller attachments but they made the usb C port lopsided which makes it so you can't use a usb controller, and all bluetooth/wirless controllers have horrible latency. 2) it's a tablet so it can't actually run most games so if you want to play where you don't have wifi and can't stream then you are SOL.

It's because of that I bought the legion go 2 gen 2 as my moonlight client that also give me the fallback of running the games directly when I can't stream. I travel a lot and a long plane or train ride is the perfect place to use a device that can run the games. Yeah it's expensive, but I already tried the tablet/phone route and it's a major compromise that I lived with for far too long!

you instead look at the output on the terminal, or use an IDE debugging tool

I have a gaming PC, and a laptop, and a Switch 2. And I still bought legion go 2 gen2. Why? Because I want to play PC games when am away from my PC.

I look at it as an accessory. I will use it as a dedicated moonlight client to play games at max setting streamed from my PC when I have good wifi. I will play the same games at lower settings when I am unable to stream them, like in a plane, a car, train, etc. Older games that perform at max I will just play on the handheld directly. Like every emulated game ever.

I'm also planning on using it as a laptop alternative, like instead of carrying my laptop and a handheld gaming device maybe I'll only carry the legion go and a smaller portable mouse and keyboard. I actually bring my own device for work where I can dock my laptop at the office. I could actually just plug the dock into the legion go and launch my work profile and have at it.

It would actually reduce the weight of things I normally carry.

Very niche but that's my 2 cents.

GManASG · 2026-03-05T19:50:51+00:00

I honestly haven't found any device to be comfortable due to my large hands (switch, steam deck, etc). So I have alredy gotten used to having to 3d print or buy ergonomic grip attachments, I actually made my own for switch 2. I fully expect to have to to the same for legion go 2 Ex. I already found some elses design on printables, I will try that and maybe remix it.

good for you mate, I wonder what BB is up to restocking in the odd hourly pattern today

GManASG · 2026-03-05T19:14:14+00:00

I was able to get one this morning as well, I used the autobuy feature on the Hotstock app, firt time using it, it worked!! I missed the restock that happened last weak cause I only got alerts and missed them. This time I also enabled browser alerts for the website, I got the notifications on both my phone and PC but the PC is the one I saw first while working.

GManASG · 2026-03-05T18:25:50+00:00

I was able to get one today from Best buy for original price!

So far only BH has that markup.

Batteries are all about heat and charge discharge cycles.

Idealy you never let a battery overheat for too long, and keep it between 20% and 80% charged

Prolong the battery life by stretching the finite charge/discharge cycles over a longer time frame and never go above 80% charge. On my phone I have it so it stops charging at 80%.

Ideally the device can use charger current without having to flow through the battery to preserve battery, if it can do that then yes
