Within an enthusiast bubble, PC handhelds are a big deal, but they do not exist in the same universe as Nintendo consoles.

I keep hearing this shit and it seems like stupid wishful thinking, because in a locked-down universe where Switch 2 is not a shitty proposition for way too much cash compared to getting a PC with 10k+ PC games from the get go and also emulating anything you wish because it's your hardware and it's just bits - in that universe, Polygon is a much needed pool of experts that people go to for advice instead of a source of stupid ragebait titles telling them a log of shit is the new snickers.

Nintendo will not have true competition in handhelds until its peers in the console space get involved.

Yeah, sure, fuck you Polygon

That's quite a prolapsed opinion

It needs more crap, but it's less of a shitty experience

Federation be like let a thousand flowers bloom

How and why the fuck is anyone still there

Preservation!

It's not a matter of liking more, reddit was dead for me when they fucked their api. Lemmy still needs content, but the ux is wastly superior

This shiticle has no insight whatsoever, it's basically a composite advert for three different product/services.

That's the stupidest thing I've heard, you'd have to be deranged to want an extension clicking random shit.

Edit: I've actually read it now and while not so bad, I still wouldn't use this on a computer that has my stuff on it.

I may be traumatized, but I can already see the reasonable objection of a rape conviction retconned in bought media as elitists initially rejecting the people's choice, nothing is unhappenable any more, the more absurd and chaotic the less avoidable

Not all features need to be for you.

The only thing I'm asking is not to have to download them since they're not for me. Just don't bundle it and I'm happy.

The hope is that processing can be done on devices that can support the models

No, the hope is they don't cram a model in and it can be NOT TURNED ON at all, never downloading a gb of data I won't use. If it's opt out, downloaded with the software, I'm jumping on a fork.

I meant the measure quoted

“For personal users, this SSD can store 11,000 90-minute 4K movies,”

This is less useful than libraries of congress.

That's ragebait, a very specific form of engagement

Why not just install Graphene? That's the only reason I'd spring for Google's hardware.

Just no

Respectfully read the room, cramming any LLM in it is a no-install for me. I don't need summaries, wouldn't give 100MB or a CPU cycle for it.

Hardly ruin, you have to purposefully go find them gloating over Steam charts. But it's too funny that people really have choice enough now in the good graphics segment that Ubisoft is sinking. It's my fault, I cursed them when they left Steam for their 4-UAC-prompts-whenever-you-start PoS. They showed total contempt for their users with Breakpoint, tried an nft grift on the side, evolved all cosmetics to clown shoes level and totally failed to offer anything new. Where's Reflextions? Stuff like Grow Up / Home, metroidvanias on UbiArt Framework? They have great 3D engines and can't keep a team happy or unfired enough to have people that know how to use it and optimize a game and are able to take some risks with game design. It's all either heavily monetized multiplayer dreck or incremental QoL features in ever larger and shallower sandboxes in one of few large franchise flavors. There's not that much to discuss, woo bamboo cutting tech, a new coat of paint and some gimmicks. People claiming it's failing because it's either woke or culture appropriating are ascribing cultural import to a happy meal.
