- Comment on Cable ISPs compare data caps to food menus: Don’t make us offer unlimited soup 1 month ago:
Except that unlimited soup or salad costs the business money to provide.
Data doesn’t. It’s simply 1s and 0s.
It doesn’t cost an ISP any more to provide the 4 trillionth 1 than it does to provide the first one.
Consuming data also doesn’t deny data availability to someone else, unlike electricity or water.
If I decide to fire up a hydroponics operation and start using 4000x more electricity and water than my neighbors, that could impact them negatively. If I run a torrent farm? Not so much.

- Comment on SD skin quality is there a difference between brands? 1 month ago:
Mostly, the complaints I see are on residue left behind when removing or swapping skins.
So when researching try (brand name) +residue and see what pops up.
If you aren’t planning on removing it then I guess they’re all the same.

Weird that the drivers are that dramatically different for the OLED version.
The standard Steam Deck Windows drivers have been out for ages, I have a Win11 external SSD and it works fine.

If they wanted to do an original story, then why license the property and attach the name?
