Legitimately one of my favourite YouTube channels. Tech deep dives (generally on extremely esoteric topics), sarcasm, and interesting insights.

What emulators do you recommend? I have an S23 but am about to try swapping it for a Fairphone running e/OS

To be honest - that’s probably the dream setup. The challenge is that android games seem to all be low-effort ad delivery systems.

My happiest place is turn-based strategy and RPGs. XCOM, Total War: Warhammer, anything Baldur’s Gate, 4Xs that sort of stuff.

I have several hundred hours killing time on Unciv on Android. Mindustry is fun but cramped. Polybridge was great until I finished it.

I had a decent PC back in the day (I grew up in the era of building my own water cooling systems) but as a casual gamer I can’t wrap my head around around modern graphics card prices and I rather be able to play on the sofa for five minutes while I wait to pull something from the oven.

I’m old.

Joysticks need to be replaced again, battery life is becoming tragic so that needs replacing too. Any time I pick it up at this point, the battery is dead.

Biggest issue to be honest is that I want a bigger screen and that isn’t the device’s fault.

I’m going to order a whack of parts from ifixit and spruce it back up for those Nintendo exclusive hankerings.

There’s a SteamOS version too, right?

Huh, I thought it was just me that did that - I just assumed everyone else was so much more disciplined than me…
