I run a Legion Go. it’s all I could afford at the time. Plays factorio and satisfactory fine. Wish I could afford a “real” rig but… it’s just not in the cards. Apparently buying wife’s car a new tranny is “important.”

When I bought my Legoin Go, the first thing I did was to turn it on, see it's W11 asking for network settings without a way to continue without. So I turned it off and installed Bazzite instead. Much better experience.

Why does your wife need a transsexual for her car?

[–] MissesAutumnRains@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 2 months ago (3 children)

To fix the transmission. Lilith's Tranny's, it's like femboy IHOP but with beautiful transgender women working on engines.

How about:

Tammy’s Tranny’s: “Transmissions & Transitions”

Okay, you didn't have to completely one up me like that in public. That absolutely is so much better.

Are they hiring? I have experience in both fields

Girl* is* 😅 But maybe it wouldn't be cool to say it that way, lmao

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

lol. come fix my wife’s car. :p

[–] DaGeek247@fedia.io 8 points 2 months ago

So the truck nuts can be installed properly. Can't transition your car without a proper expert around to keep things going right.

He means “transistor radio”. It’s what people used to call the wireless.

Nothing wrong with the Legion Go hardware at all. I like that it’s got those Switch-like removable controls, tho I’m not sure if I’d use them.

If you’re interested in a non-Windows experience, Steam OS supports the Legion Go. There’s also Cachy OS a rolling-release Arch Linux distro, Bazzite an immutable Fedora distro with atomic updates, Nobara a customized Fedora distro maintained by Glorious Eggroll who is known for Proton-GE, and Chimera OS.

[–] Dettweiler42@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 months ago

A buddy of mine bought one of those a while back. We recently switched it over to steam OS and the performance improvement was substantial.

[–] Bluescluestoothpaste@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)
