Can a square-screen QWERTY Android phone actually be useful today? 📱

I just dropped a full review of the Unihertz Titan 2. While gaming on it is a rough experience, it turns out to be an absolute dream as a pocket-sized Linux CLI terminal.

Check out the full hardware tour, software dive, and terminal setup:

Is the base ASUS ROG Ally the actual "Steam Deck" now? With recent price hikes hitting Valve's hardware, the Ally sits at £200 cheaper at retail and I managed to snag one for £369 on Amazon.

We do an SSD upgrade, look at game performance (from Stardew to Cyberpunk), and try fixing the Windows friction by installing Bazzite (SteamOS).

Its been a while since I just stat down and installed Linux on something that has no business having Linux on it.... today I bring you the Microsoft Surface RT (We all know RT stands for Really Terrible), a ARM32 machine running Windows 8 RT from 2012 that Microsoft pretty quickly gave up on.

Lets install Linux.

Testing gaming performance on the MacBook Neo! 🎮

I spent some time with thermal mods, native macOS titles, and some surprising results with emulation.

The big takeaway: Skip the Cyberpunk struggle and embrace the retro. PS2 emulation at 1080p runs like a dream on this hardware.Watch on
