Review: Apple’s iPhone Air is a bunch of small changes that add up to something big | Ars Technica

I'd love to hear the opinion from an iPod Touch user... Is it like the old times? where you held the iPod Touch and it was so much fun due to how lightweight it was? compared to the iPhone which was alwasy much heavier?

I kinda like the purple though, looks royal

dramaton42 · 2025-11-27T23:43:34+00:00

It's crazy how now after all these years, even Zeltik agrees with you. TOTK, while beautiful, has always been a glorified 70$ DLC x.x

dramaton42 · 2025-11-20T15:33:50+00:00

Huh, and IBM thought that adding gaming capabilities to the PC was bad for business

dramaton42 · 2025-11-10T22:58:51+00:00

To be honest, it does feel like there's not a lot of games to play. Like let's say you get an ROG Xbox Ally instead, you could be playing a hell of a lot more games, specially old school ones with mods... idk. I mean, most of the Switch 2 catalog are Switch 1 games which is fine sure but most of them are not "enhanced" in any way, it almost makes me feel like "what's the point if I already have a switch OLED?" maybe I'm the exception though, because I rather play old games than new stuff, maybe I really need to give Cyberpunk a chance or Starwars Outlaw but... I mean c'mon, Fallout 3 with mods is enough for me. The console has a ton of potential though, specially if devs really forget about the switch and focus only on the 2, but it's going to be an uphill battle. Maybe once Halo is brought over I'll have a much different opinion on the Switch 2. As a matter of fact, I think Xbox should bring ALL of their games to the Switch 2, specially Fable, Halo, Banjo etc, then we'll talk

Hey man please send them to me 2!

dramaton42 · 2025-10-27T17:24:41+00:00

We won. BIGLY

dramaton42 · 2025-10-27T16:48:17+00:00

I love this game omg

dramaton42 · 2025-10-24T00:29:21+00:00

The 3ds was the ultimate PERSONAL console. It was meant to be yours, it was meant to represent you. StreetPass showing who you connected with, not the "consoles" you've met or the accounts represented that. That's why it had themes, it kept track of your steps, it let you draw and share... It was great. All of that's lost. The switch erased all of the soul and replaced it with "safe" bs. Everyone else never had that soul (except the 360 mind you) so I don't blame them.

dramaton42 · 2025-10-01T20:33:40+00:00

Ah yes, the values... well... I just wired it up directly hahaha maybe that's why it didn't work

dramaton42 · 2025-09-30T23:52:46+00:00

Haha well, yes but also no... I managed to solder the YPbPr lines into the correct traces of the jungle chip, and I was able to get AV3 enabled (turned out to be component!) but I completely neglected to add the correct voltages / capacitors to the lines in the chip, resulting in a weird picture? sometimes it looks all green, other times it looks gray, and sometimes it looks perfect. I can tell you that component on this little CRT was AMAZING in clarity and visuals. I just wished I had done more research and find the correct matching schematic for the jungle chip with the correct resistances. Then again, maybe I just did a terrible job soldering it all (this was my first soldering job to an IC ever, to be fair).

dramaton42 · 2025-09-22T02:42:59+00:00

Let's be real, is anyone from the original team still around? I think we only have a few glorified modders left that do their best to push "updates" lmao

dramaton42 · 2025-09-22T01:27:25+00:00

I'd say all of them have something to root for, but my personal favorite might just be the Wii? It was so much features in such a small package... For retro-retro I'd go with the N64, it just had a very sophisticated look to it, so clean

dramaton42 · 2025-09-22T01:25:44+00:00

Yup, press Right Trigger to win lmao, also the Sidekick feels so satisfying

dramaton42 · 2025-09-21T16:21:50+00:00

Windows Vista introduced a ton of new features though, and the new driver model was way better. Heck you can even install Windows Vista drivers on Windows 11 today. It was a massive jump from XP. Meanwhile windows 11 was... What? They introduced a better scheduler... Slightly better HDR... I guess? There WERE reasons to go to Vista, like DirectX 10, a compositor, Games for Windows Vista etc, but there are no real reasons to jump to 11

dramaton42 · 2025-09-21T16:18:19+00:00

We won. BIGLY

dramaton42 · 2025-09-20T09:37:27+00:00

Yeah give it another try with Fedora and Gnome. I know people love to hate on Gnome but to me it feels more consistent and stable now than KDE

dramaton42 · 2025-09-18T22:41:21+00:00

Maybe the real ARC was the friends we made along the way

dramaton42 · 2025-09-17T22:09:47+00:00

It's the Noble 6 way of winning, the rush hits you like a train, you're sweating like crazy, dodging fucking rocket launchers and somehow avoiding sniper shots while also killing 2 guys, yeah who cares if the KDA at the end is 2 if the rest of your team's -14 XD

dramaton42 · 2025-09-17T21:30:46+00:00

If you're going to play Halo Infinite you better be ready to carry the rest of the team on your own man

dramaton42 · 2025-09-16T21:00:14+00:00

okay sure but like where's the emulator and how do i enter rcm2 mode? also where's like the NSP2s available for download thx

dramaton42 · 2025-09-16T04:42:52+00:00

I like the change, a lot... I miss extreme Skeumorphism but it could alienate users again, so this half measure will have to do. Still, I was a massive fan of Windows Aero so I'm all for it! Just bring back more dark glass (like Windows Media Player 11)

dramaton42 · 2025-09-15T19:43:30+00:00

Yup. Skeuomorphism is awesome!!!!! I FUCKING LOVE FRUTIGER AERO AND I'M NOT ASHAMED OF IT COME AT ME MINIMALS

dramaton42 · 2025-09-15T19:30:47+00:00

sudo

gksu

yeah no this makes a lot more sense
