    Would be good in my mind if it hadn't had one major flaw, beeing commonly not comparable with older programms. Got virus alerts then starting my PI related games and their tools partly didn't run overall. So i just gave my laptop away then asked...

    Should I get this? I wonder if I'll even use it much. Definitely a vanity buy.
    https://m.youtube.com/shorts/MuWPGwiCIuI

    The bad: Windows 11 despite it having no keyboard, a battery that probably sucks beyond belief, and it would set me back nearly $500 for a used one. I also probably would have no idea how to set up ps3 emulation let alone where to get the roms.

    The good: I could always use a mouse w it? So it would be a laptop basically. I could always use it to play MtG Arena and might actually be worthwhile just for that if all else fails. Maybe even dabble in other mouse games like C&C4 and, what was it.. Frostpunk?

    Plus I haven't owned a steam deck or any handheld pc, so if I get this then at least then I'd have a better idea of what they are like and their pros/cons. I'd have lived a full life. =P

      Editing … It's an awful idea to buy it. Imagine trying to install steam and buy a game w/o a keyoard or mouse plugged in. All just to be able to play it for 50 minutes before the battery runs out. ALSO. I just remembered that MtG Arena uses the space bar. (although maybe it shouldn't. I need to check the game settings and see if there's a way to map it to mouse right click or something. Bc what happens constantly is I finish my turn and fold my left arm only to have to undo it two seconds later bc my opponent does something. Why did I not think of changing the controls?)

      Editing … If I knew for a fact it could run need for speed prostreet via rpcs3.. then I would reconsider. I see videos of folk emulating ps3 on the ally and the steam deck, and testing various games, but none with Prostreet. And these videos point out that some games don't work entirely.

    I just updated to W11.

    It seems pretty good.

    mom's PC is infected with fake antivirus popups from "quatelisest.com". I can't figured out how to remove it.
    Best I can do is disable popups from them. (which is pretty much just as good, but I'd rather it not be there totally, sucking up memory and whatnot and potentially installing other things)

    I ran Malwarebytes and Unhackme, both claimed to remove it. But upon restart I click on "manage notifications" and quatelisest.com is still there, albeit still disabled. (Also, enabling it causes the notifications to appear instantly. So it's not just Windows 10 remembering something that isn't there.)

      Editing … Haven't bothered to do so yet. I tried upgrading a computer lab to Windows 11. That was a bit of a headache, because I literally had to uninstall McAfee and reinstall the Windows Security app on every single computer. So I was typing a lot of "Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI -AllUsers | Reset-AppxPackage" on the Windows command prompt (admin). https://www.auslogics.com/en/articles/fix-empty-windows-11-security-or-defender-app/

No, the biggest issue is definitely the Windows Security issues, because Microsoft effed up big time on that. Like, they have the best cybersecurity apps in the world and they can't even set that up properly? The f**k is wrong with them?!? Lol.

    I still have to do a hard restart on my laptop (hold the power button) just to clear the memory. I have no idea why I have to do it this way, but ever since Windows 10 became a thing, I always have to do it. So I'll just blame it on Windows 10.

    Well, my Windows 10 crashed. I don't know what I did, but I had to reinstall it. My laptop files are still intact, but Windows 10 doesn't know how to repair itself, unless I use a boot disk. Bleh.

It can't be my property. That's fuckin terrifying, Microsoft should just let me buy the company for a few bucks so I can fix this.

    Well, I missed out on the last few waiting parades, but this week I found out what everyone was talking about. Lol. So I spent all that time waiting for...a task view button?!? I'm sure that there must've been some other bug fixes, but I feel a little cheated. Like...waiting for a black parade. I'm trying to sound a little optimistic, yo...

It's their version of the devil horn hand signal. But I honestly thought they'd become even bigger stuff than everyone else at the time, because that single was one of their best.
