It doesn’t have to be a 6 inch cube to fit under your TV. The PS5 Pro is nearly 16 inches long.

How many people actually care about it being that tiny though?
Anyone strapped for cash is probably gonna get a much bigger machine to get a much better value. Only the right enthusiast would pay more for worse performance just for the size.

Not in terms of performance per dollar. The steam machine is HEAVILY compromised by the last Gen. 35 watt CPU, and previous Gen. 110w GPU. The entire system performs like a mid range PC from 2021.
You can get a much faster pre built for the same money. You’re paying the SFF and quiet PC tax on top of the RAM/SSD crunch tax. If you don’t need the small size or for it to be whisper quiet you can get a much better PC for your money.

From the gamers nexus review the UX of this seems pretty atrocious currently. Pair that with proton being very hit or miss I think a regular pre built would still be better for someone who knows nothing about PCs/PC gaming.

How often are you creating new Apple IDs on phones without any previous cell connections?
And why not just create the account in settings after you set up the phone? There’s no reason to reset the phone just to make an Apple ID.

Yeah did it ever natively play h265? You’ve always had to pay the $2 for it, had an OEM computer that they paid for it, or gotten it from something else. It was the exact same in windows 10.

It is quite possibly the least ergonomic controller I’ve used. I like to sit at my desk with my controller on my lap right in front of my stomach. The grips are so vertical that my wrists are almost at a 90 degree angle. The only comfortable way for me to hold it is at the top basically squeezing it, and at the bottom almost not touching it at all to get a decent angle on it. Even then I have to sit back to give enough room to stretch out my arms so I don’t destroy my wrists.
The joysticks are also very far inwards. My hands aren’t gigantic, but they’re definitely not small. I’m a 6’1” guy for reference. I’ve found that to comfortably use the joysticks my hands need to be positioned more on top of the controller than along the side. So pair the weird angle with my hands being on top of the controller and I HATE the ergonomics of the thing.
The trackpads are cool to some people, but I don’t care since my mouse is right next to me. The software doesn’t even work right and I’m still waiting for them to fix my issue.
But besides the horrendous ergonomics I like it enough to use it. Eventually when the elite series 3 comes out I’ll probably switch to it (as long as it’s got TMR)

Did low end 4g phones ever really go away? I’ve been looking at them for a few years now and was always astonished that they never bothered upgrading to 5g.

I absolutely detest how on lemmy deleting a post also nukes access to the comments. They’re still there, but there’s no way in many normally lemmy UI to get to them.
That’s not hard to do when they can’t even buy ram for them.
