I hope that some day you have the means to impulsively do both ❤️

This makes me feel so much better! Its kind of one of my thoughts, playing the steam deck in bed, those evenings where you don't really want to do much but also aren't fully ready to go to sleep!

You've definitely given me some reassurance 🙂

 

So I kind of impulsively bought a Steam Deck OLED this weekend, I hadn't really done much research and I haven't really played any games in about 15 years.

Now I have to wait for it to be delivered and, I'm worried this is something I'll use a few times and forget about it.

What's something you impulsively bought and fell in love with?

Was this something called ceefax or teletext? I vaguely remember hearing of someone using it to book a holiday when I was growing up

So true, this really highlights the risk of updates impacting critical systems vs critical systems being exposed to critical vulnerabilities. Its a real balancing act.

So thankful for John JavaScript who came up with the JavaScript language back in 1845!

I'm trying to learn rust and so far this has definitely made it so much more accessible.

Not to mention their super useful "rustlings" training which has these nice little challenges to get you used to language and syntax

Deleting an app from any device regardless of OS should generally remove all related files, except in cases where the app asks you if you'd like to keep certain files, such as personal data or saved game files. However that's not to say that they always remove related files, things such as updates can leave files in particular temporary directories, some of these are not always removed as part of the update process and so they are not something which would be recognised during the removal of the application either.

These kind of temporary files and folders being left behind are why there has always been reasons behind creating apps to "boost" you device performance by removing some of these left over junk files but are also the reason that sometimes its better to just totally reset the device, clear everything out and start again.

I know there was a time I would pretty much do this on a yearly basis for my own computer to try and keep it at a close to peak performance level.

I remember learning about this in the early 00's but then the textbooks were saying about this newer memory technology which the world has moved to known as DDR! Makes me feel so old now 👵
