What a coincidence, so does HP
ITT: people that don't understand that more OEMs ditching Windows for Linux on flagship gaming handhelds is an incredibly good thing for Linux gaming overall, and would instead rather make the same joke over and over about ink cartridges.
My take is that Windows experience sucks so bad that even HP won't touch it. But "HP sucks" is a very valid point.
This can go one of two ways:
The second way shouldn't even be possible, but never underestimate HP's ability to make something worse than you thought possible.
I'd read your comment, but I can't because my yellow ink is low.
Fuck HP forever
Our fucking corporate HP printer requires every single employee to make a separate fucking HP account in order to scan anything on the stupid piece of shit.
Not to mention in CONSTANTLY freezes and crashes.
We are replacing it. Fuck HP.
2025 will be the year of the Linux ~~desktop~~ handheld
HP will somehow make something worse than windows
Someone should tell him they already made a non-Windows handheld experience that doesn't suck! It's called the Steam Deck, and it doesn't nickel and dime you like HP products do...
Competition is good... Let them compete with the steam deck. Competition is good, even if it just highlights how much better the existing option is
Lack of competition is why capitalism fails - competition is literally the only good part of capitalism. Cheer it on when it actually happens
