    I used Signal since it was called TextSecure and I don't think I ever successfully got another person using it.
    Eventually uninstalled it because it was just largely useless, anytime I messaged a friend who seemed to be using it they were more confused than anything.

    It depends on the game but I'm surprised how well some games run.
    Steam Deck got me playing games on MicroSD which is really where you feel the pain.

    Having the right cartridge available without trying to find a shop selling them is.

    One of the obstacles in this is if your printer only takes a single brand of ink.
    I usually just order ink, but it's not too hard to find ones compatible with my brother in a store if I need one immediately.

    kick_out_the_jams, to asklemmy in Why do people hate on mobile games, call them "not real games" and mock them, when some mobile-exclusive games are the best games I've played?

    For a long while mobile games were either beyond simple (like snake on the old indesctructible Nokia) or we’re pay to win money extractor gachas.

    There was a period before the latter really came around that things were pretty interesting.

    Then in-app purchases, subscriptions and micro transactions basically dialed up to 11 on mobile platforms.

    The fast start up option actually should still be under power options, though not really intuitive or easy to find.
    Look for the part that says "Choose what the power buttons do" and it should be there.

    I tend to just turn hibernation all off because I don't really use it, and I'd typically rather have the space hiberfil.sys takes up.

    If you want to turn off hibernation for good you can do so with an elevated prompt.

    kick_out_the_jams, to worldnews in Netanyahu rejected ceasefire-for-hostages deal in Gaza, sources say | The Guardian

    One source with knowledge of the talks, which slowed after the Israeli ground invasion, said a central point of discussion was a demand by the Israeli side for Hamas to provide a full list specifying the name and details of each person held in Gaza. The Israeli side was unwilling to cease bombardments without receiving this list.

    Hamas responded that it was unable to provide the list without a pause in the fighting, as the estimated 240 hostages were held by a number of different groups in places across Gaza. That suggested even Hamas leaders do not know for sure how many people are held captive, their locations or the number who have survived the bombardments.
