I’m looking for a watch that is able to do basic “smart” things like show notifications and ping my phone if I misplace it. A timer/stopwatch would also be good, and a long lasting battery....
I know that we have a telegram chat for announcements but I think it would also be a good idea to also have a matrix space where we can also get announcements and maybe even also chat and get support.
One of the reasons I think we should is that not everyone has Telegram and it requires a phone number to sign up to, but a lot of people have Matrix and even if they don't it's easy to sign up to. Another reason is that telegram isn't a great platform due to it being a centralized corporate platform which is now allowing/forcing ads on it, some of which for very sketchy blockchain services, which obviously isn't great and is a pretty big reason people would want to avoid it.
(I posted this from #Mastodon so it could reach further and also so I could mention people).
Really grinds my gears manufacturers pretend the beveled screens are premium features and not the ugly, difficult-to-protect liabilities that they actually are.
Not directly relevant but if you have the 64gb deck and a big SD card: you can symlink the directory that houses all the proton versions and shader catches to the SD card.
That was pretty much the first thing I did after I got my deck, as a stopgap before I could upgrade the SSD but it’s been working well enough I never got around to swapping out the SSD after, what, almost two years?
I didn’t do any fancy mounting, as far as I can remember. I think it really was just a matter of copying the directories to my SD card and replacing the directories on the deck with links to the ones I copied to the card.
I’ll take a look at what I did the next time I get the deck out and let you know

Just get a decent 1-2GB SD card for the 64 GB deck. Uninvasive, convenient, cheap storage upgrade with no human-noticeable performance difference between the more expensive decks.
I’ve owned both the 512 GB and 64 GB deck + big SD card and I can’t tell the difference between them without precise performance benchmarks. The only difference is the 512 GB has an anti glare screen.
IMHO yes. It is among my favorite games of all time.
The plot is of course nonsense (all far cry plots are garbage), but the core gameplay loop is tight, the shooting feels good and there’s a diverse arsenal, you get a large selection of colorful sidekicks and animal companions, the most annoying mechanics of earlier titles in the franchise were fixed or removed in 5, and the entire campaign can be played coop after you escape from tutorial Island.
It doesn’t take itself too seriously but it’s also a internally consistent rural Montana simulator. Stealth mechanics feel great (subjective ofc) but more aggressive strategies work well too. The base game has plenty of content and goes on sale frequently.
It was everything I loved about FC3 but more of it and bigger and polished to a radiant shine, with a kitschy rural US setting.
Any recommendations for a privacy respecting watch with basic smart features?

What do you guys think of Mythforce? The game is supposedly going to be like an 80s cartoon. (pawb.social)
I will probably play it, although I wish it had more muscle men.
