I sold my Steam Deck OLED to upgrade to the Z1E version of the Go S, and it's fantastic. I was worried I'd miss the OLED screen, but the LED screen on this is very high quality, and the size is fantastic. Worst thing I can say is that the trackpad is practically useless.

During my theater days I'd spend weeks studying a character, building character relastionships, working on technical elemements with the crew, and trying to make something real on stage. After a show someone would always ask, "Wow, was it hard to memorize all those lines?"
That's the easy part.

What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

Just once I want a reporter to respond with, “That’s a weird thing to say.”
REPORTER: There are people upset with the president, believing the National Guard members shouldn't have been there
PIRRO: I don't even wanna talk about whether they should've been there. We ought to kiss the ground and thank God that the president said it's time to bring in more law enforcement
