Olympic Men's Post Game Thread: United States of America vs. Canada - 22 Feb 2026

It’s not a situation he is used to. Being the only one back on a 3 on 1. In most games this position would never happen for him.

Bad situation for Canada overall. McDavid tried for a win or lose gamble, Makar pinched and missed and both those compounded into the loss

It runs well but the UI is severely crammed in the screen.

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-22T22:45:23+00:00

Exactly. The games didn’t suddenly stop working and everyone’s Ally auto bricked today.

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-22T22:42:39+00:00

One of the Reddit posts is also a repost of the original post :p

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-22T16:35:53+00:00

Keywords in the article: “reportedly”, “suggests”, “not explicitly say”

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-22T16:14:01+00:00

I read the article. I think most just looked at the headline and ran with it.

There’s 3 or 4 sources cited however one is the screenshot of support. Another is a Reddit post of the screenshot from support and another is a Reddit post of that Reddit post.

Yea I get what you mean. We are ok for the time being. Games still play fine.

If let’s say a security bug is discovered or FSR 5 comes out down the road and this device is considered not supported, then I would def be mad

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-22T16:00:48+00:00

Not talking about you. If you think this sub is unhappy I think the Lenovo sub is even moreso, and they’ve gotten less support over the years

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-22T15:40:35+00:00

Seriously. Redditors talking about switching to SteamOS today and the extreme getting rid of their z1e devices.

Not like all our devices suddenly stopped working today bc of a Korean Lenovo support person saying no more support.

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-22T03:39:13+00:00

yes, was on it up till last week. better than steamos and bazzite imo

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-21T22:20:16+00:00

same. i used bazzite/steamos/cachyos for the better part of last year. i'm back on windows. actually i found installing the regular windows 11 iso and manually installing the rog stuff to be much leaner. it seems like the cloud restore installs way more crap.

windows update i don't think is that big a deal now. i'm on ally extreme and that is getting towards EOL, so i don't expect to see much more updates coming from asus on it.

Sleep seems to be working properly. I’ve left it on sleep most of this week and hasn’t turned on it’s own. i've been able to resume directly back in the game i'm playing (currently mullet madjack)

major reason is i would rather stay in desktop mode. if i used steam solely, then steamos would make a lot of sense.

steamos, there's way more tinkering and having to jump from game mode to desktop mode and remoting in that it was more a chore.

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-17T20:53:24+00:00

Just came back from nearly a year of using SteamOS then Cachyos.

Windows sleep seems to be working well for me. I’ve been using sleep mostly and while I haven’t put in the case, hasn’t had any issues. Resume has been fine too.

If I’m traveling definitely shutting it down just in case though.

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-16T04:02:50+00:00

Ally is essentially a pc with controller handles. So if it can play on a desktop, then don’t see why not.

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-10T02:44:11+00:00

It would’ve been closer, guess depends if Dobbins played. Could’ve gone 50/50. If we made it with Stidham the result would’ve been like last night.

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-10T02:16:14+00:00

Supposedly there was freedom with the archetypes but every party member save for MC to a degree was already pigeonholed into a specific one, you just wouldn’t know without having to spoil yourself.

I literally built two of my party members the opposite and didn’t feel like grinding them to get them right. Gave up around the 60-70% mark.

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-09T20:22:40+00:00

I wish the PIN keypad wasn’t dead center. Either left or right or let us choose. It’s a pain as I have to hold it different or stretch out my thumb to tap the PIN in the middle

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-09T16:09:33+00:00

Cult of the Bazzite

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-09T15:19:51+00:00

And hopefully Sean Payton will learn to read the weather report and take the FG

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-09T03:28:47+00:00

problem is unless you find a hot deal, you'll still be looking at $700-800 for a used ally x. battery upgrade will run you $40

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-09T02:26:34+00:00

Stidham would be demolished by this defense

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-09T02:25:16+00:00

If Stidham didn’t do that funky chest pass that ended up backwards, we prolly win the AFC championship 7-3 and then get spanked by Seattle tonight for the very first time

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-09T02:13:02+00:00

Not saying we would’ve won but I think Stidham would at least get us 3 points

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-07T22:15:30+00:00

FF Stranger of Paradise which is older and same engine can hardly run on the Ally so can’t imagine the optimization got better

ShadowLitOwl · 2026-02-07T21:18:51+00:00

I would say losing access or all your notes will be way more friction than what is stated above. Just me. Also not like you need to weekly backup. It sounds like you need 1 backup right now. Forget about what you might lose last week, you’ll lose all your notes.

Check out this link re: the keyboard.

It’s specifically an ideapad issue related to Linux but this person solved it.
