I honestly regret buying my gaming laptop. I barely use it since I don’t have space in my room, so I need to attach it to the TV, every time I need to use, move my series X and unplug it… And I need a wired controller. Then, there’s always a pesky update, drivers, stuff… When I’m playing on my X I don’t have to worry about any of that, is more of a hassle to use (the laptop).
Ngl I basically bought it because I wanted to play Spiderman and other not available games on Xbox but even like that the regret is there.
My Flipper Zero. I can force myself to use it and I actually do use the 125khz emulation. But thats it. I feel like I’m wasting it by not hacking with it.
As a side note your gaming laptop wouldnt need to update all the time if it was left on to update. Gaming laptops IMO always suck and desktops are better.
Yeah, neat idea, but if “hacking” isn’t already something of a hobby, it’s going to just sit around. As mine has.
Same, though in my case my sole use is the IR. Replaced so many random little remotes from random little light up things.
My nephew wants a flipper0! so badly. When i looked into the hardware I found the stack5 cardputer to be more interesting, modular, and cheaper $30 vs $160. I figure $30 is about the right price point for a prank toy (thats all he wants it for) that will get forgotten in a few days, then I can use it myself once its abandoned.
