You have to start somewhere my man. Also, not trying to “convince” devs to remove anti-cheat. The point would be to have a linux compatible solution.

Again, it’s not relevant that relevant how the video ends because the comment did not specifically made a reference to the video and I didn’t either. You’re adding context that you imagine OP was referring to but nothing of the sort was explicitly said.

The problem with normal flash drives is longevity. The OS will probably wear it out pretty quickly. As an inexpensive and/or disposable solution I guess it’s fine, but it’s not reliable.

You kind of can? If you want to have an OS that you will actually use (instead of just a backup to fix your actual os) on a thumb drive, buy a usb-c m.2 enclosure, put the cheapest ssd that meets your needs in there and just install windows there.

Jay you mean? I replied to a comment, not the video, and the comment only said “backup os”.

Still, I admittedly did not watch the video because I’ve stopped watching that guy years ago. He’s one of the least knowledgeable “techtubers” I know. The only thing he was good at was custom watercooling stuff, but I don’t know if he still does that stuff.

Lastly, while it does suck to not be able to play a game due to anticheat, the best way to solve that issue is to not play those games. The devs will propmtly find a way to make an anticheat that works on linux too if their playerbase demands it.

You can just have a thumbdrive with another linux distro and live boot with that. There really isn’t a need to have another os permanently installed.

Yeah and you might end up getting your console banned by nintendo if the seller of the used cartridge ripped it.

You assumed what my argument was. You wrre mistaken.

It kind of is, though. The cost of the system on its own is not the cost of the platform. Buyung the same games on a switch+paying for online mp is substantially more expensive than having a steam deck and using steam.

It also has fewer (and more expensive) games and is quite a bit more restrictive.

Am I the only here that smells bullshit/ragebait? When your phone has the bootloader unlocked and you’re rooted, you simply cannot receive official software updates. That only works in custom roms.

EDIT: It seems that for several people this is not the case. Guess I’m wrong then, but personally I’ve never received software update requests after rooting. Right now in my xperia 5v I literally can’t even check to see if there is one. The only way to know is to look up my model in xperifirm.
