Or you could just use the 10 fingers, 2^10 is 1024, so you can count from 0 to 1023

Just my anecdote, but 15 years back or so when Bluetooth earbuds weren’t a thing yet, I bought a new wired pair every six months or so at least. Even when I’d run the wire under my shirt and stuff the slack in my pocket, eventually it would get caught and yank the earbuds out of my ears. When that happened too many times, the connection between the wire and the jack or buds would deteriorate.

I’ve actually never lost a Bluetooth earbud. I buy ones with the little wings so they actually stay. I don’t have connection problems unless I’m on the opposite side of the house from my phone, so granted I’ll switch to my trusty 30m long wired earbuds in those cases. I’ve also never had a battery die in one of these. As I type this I’m wearing a pair of Sony Bluetooth headphones that I bought at least 5 years ago, maybe 6 or 7, and as far as I can tell they work as well as they ever have.

Impressive wood

Inspiring, so many new insults to try out

I never thought about doing it that way, so I counted in binary with my right hand… Tricky but oddly satisfying

Edit: shit, I’m getting faster at this. I might have to convert

Too many puppies in my ass

Yeah I can see that. Can it breath ok like that?

I wish the port was on the bottom in the first place. Ditto audio jacks on phones (while they lasted, rip)

Underlying kernel aside, I think that the Steamdeck’s SteamOS is an excellent example of how “easy to use” != “smaller feature-set”. I’ve heard countless times from apple dudes that the reason that their stuff allegedly “just works” is because of the lack of some functionally that if present would overwhelm the user. You know, as if ios and android don’t share fundamentally the same user interface principles. But they do have a point, a green user can be overwhelmed when presented with a huge feature set all at once. Yet, despite SteamOS literally having a full-blown desktop environment, the UI frankly is way less confusing than my Xbox. It just goes to show that it’s not about the number of features, it’s about how they’re presented. Power users don’t mind digging into a (well designed) settings menu to enable some advanced functionality, and keeping those advanced features and settings (with reasonable defaults) hidden around the corner behind an unlocked door helps the newbie get started with confidence.

The steam deck honestly is my favorite controller. If valve releases a controller that’s the steam deck without a screen I’ll be first in line and I’ll take two please.

The last two characters before the “AAAAAAAAA” are “AI” 🤔

That was one of the heartier "FUCK"s I’ve heard in awhile

What? You have to pay the fee. You’re joking right? You’ve been paying the fee, right?

OH. I scrolled past this post like 4 times before I got it. Lesson for the other ducks on viagra, follow the directions on the label or you’ll end up like this guy.

Oh that’s easy. Connecticut
