Another stellar release. 8bitdo are seriously becoming a force to be reckoned with. When my Xbox Elite 2 dies I’ll probably get one of these to replace it. Already have the Ultimate as my go to for the Switch and when I have my Steam Decked docked to the TV.

Wonder if all this tariff nonsense it going to hurt its foothold in the US…

No problem! When I get home I will cross-link to Journaling too! Let’s build some great places here.

Gotta start somewhere. Hopefully we can turn it into a nice and vibrant community!

Not decentralized, but I have been using Kagi for around six months and it has changed the way I view the internet for the better. I love how you can also rank sites you trust higher so they appear in more searches. The only problem I have had is searching for shopping links here in Japan sometimes is a little wonky, so I still will use google when I want to just see how much an item costs on average online.

I have never thought about decentralized search. Could be an interesting rabbit hole to fall into.

So I usually hit the Sleep focus mode on my phone when I actually am going to sleep, so in that case it should be pretty accurate. Looking at the Auto Sleep app, it shows I only got 6.5 hours of sleep and showed some awake periods that don’t match the Apple Watch reading either. I feel like I got less sleep, so I am almost inclined to just use Auto Sleep and forget that Apple is even there, except I do like having all my data in the Apple Health app.

Have they released numbers yet? Surely it has sold pretty well, the word of mouth must be decent.

I will admit I haven’t watched the video (I’m going to when I get home) but I thought Avowed was doing pretty well?

A number of major podcasts and outlets are signing its praises. It has some divisive scores for sure, but I’ve certainly anecdotally heard way more praise than criticism from games media, and friends of mine who are playing.

Obsidian have been on a pretty decent roll for quite some time. Avowed is exactly what Gamepass was seeking to support - smaller focused games, and it ain’t even that small. 30-50 hours from what I’m hearing.

I’m not even a massive fan of the genre, or the studio, but I don’t really get the negativity surrounding the game. Seems pretty successful by most metrics to me.

Alrighty, I’m going to give it a real go when I finish moving house and see how it goes.

I heard that CachyOS is pretty good with NVIDIA so maybe that’s the best bet and just see if all my games I’m currently playing work.
