You care so much about glorifying linux everything else falls away.
In one specific game the battery life is much much better. In that one specific use case the word "massive" is used aptly.
All the other minor improvements are just that minor. Bud you saying that I'm wrong doesn't make me wrong.
And of course the vice versa applies.
How I KNOW this is not a normal discussion..... Who the hell brought up price? Certainly not me
Please continue to talk about random shit I never mentioned. I don't care. you do you
An improvement of 5-10 fps doesn't seem like a lot, but it's like buying a newer gen graphics card, at least for some games. Or what you would achieve with a medium to substantial overclock. In this case it's just the OS though. Just the software.
What else? Nitpicking at the use of words in news articles?
What I'm personally more skeptic about is the actual numbers. We don't have benchmarks. We just have this one table that shows fps, and no 1% and 0.1%s.
My nitpicking or did I say the word massively isn't really applicable here?
It's really been interesting to read all the comments here. People here are very personally invested in their OS of choice on their gaming handheld.
I mean we see the whole gamut here that stickman argument talking about things I never mentioned, etc etc etc
So, you wanna nitpick at that too? Fantastic
There is no fucking way you aren't just a troll. Because we're on Lemmy I usually assume best intents, but all you have been doing so far is talking shit.
