So... I got my first switch yesterday. Any tips for long lasting joycons? (if any)

Also, I got Fire Emblem and I'm having fun. I got 35€ to spend (it came with a nice voucher), any games I should buy?

Thank you, bay12friends.

Anything similar to Fire Emblem Three Houses for pc?

I would thank you forever ...
It doesn't need to have fancy graphics.

Valkyria Chronicles? It doesn't have the social link stuff from what I remember but it is similar in that it has tons of characters and is a tactical JRPG. Valkyria Chronicles 4 came out on PC recently as well.

Thank you. I'm having some fun... I'm not exactly a fan of the movement system, but V. Chronicles is kinda fun.

I just started Les Miserables and I'm loving it.

It was a good way to review some of the french revolutions ideas/history - having lots of fun.

Life Advice / I want an android tablet or an Ipad ? Help me decide.
« on: June 03, 2019, 05:13:56 am »
I'm very inclined to buy a tablet, android or iOS.

The main purpose would be to read comics, watch anime and some browsing. Any recommendations?

max Price to consider: 400€ more or less 447 US$

Life Advice / Re: Should I buy a Macbook ?
« on: May 20, 2018, 12:38:11 pm »
Thanks for all your feedback!

Mac tax is very real, and I've never, ever enjoyed working with one. You're just paying for pretty colours.

If you like the OS I would suggest there's many linux distros which work pretty much the same. If you're new to computers don't be worried by linux - it's come a long way recently.

Anyway, I always think the lenovo laptops are the best value for money - I've never had a problem with them and they seem to actually deliver what they promise.

Should I buy a Lenovo laptop and install linux, then? Where can I start my linux newbie course ... ?

Thank you wierd.

Yes... the Apple Tax is real. Anyway, I don't want to mess with my Vaio. I'm not sure if I got the required skills. My Vaio is very precious to me! You're reducing my impulse to buy it. Thank you!

Then ... eliminating Macbook from the pool of choices (I'm not going to deny, I feel sexual attracted to the MacOs) But well ... that's just irrational and animal.

I want:

- trip's partner (factors to be considered: weight, dimension)
- quick ! (i7 ? i5 ? RAM = or > 8 GB)
- a very good trackpad
-  best screen

Don't really care for touch things .

Asking to much? Thank you!

Life Advice / Should I buy a Macbook ?
« on: May 15, 2018, 11:22:06 am »
Hello !

Need some good advice. I feel a terrible urge to buy a Macbook. I want to experience a macOS...
I'm not really in the need to upgrade my 10 year old Vaio laptop (i7 2.70GHz, 8 RAM, intel hd graphics 3000). I want something to complement my digital life ... My vaio would be my desktop pc and this Mac would be my travel/light work/no gaming/evernote/youtube/mail companion.

What to do you all think about this?

Apple MacBook Air 13'' i5-1,8GHz | 8GB | 128GB

There's a part of me that hates this ideia. I was brainwashed ...
Thank you!

Lets try one more thing its possible that the intel hdmi audio drivers are not installed since it wasn't plugged in at the time. Can you try reinstalling the intel drivers with the HDMI plugged in?

Otherwise your last option would get a vga/hdmi converter or a HDMI audio inserter.

I'll try it right now. Thank you !

Oh, that would be it. Should have mentioned that sooner.

Vga doesn't support audio. You need either an hdmi or a dvi port or  your laptop to get audio from it to the tv. Vga won't do it.

I mean it's a hdmi port on my laptop.
Is it a VGA port on the tv then? If at any point the signal is passing through a VGA type cable, then it's dropping the sound.

Yes it is. Maybe I should get a vga hdmi converter thing ?  But the laptop has already an hdmi input : monitor(vga) ---> pc (hdmi input)

If it says standard vga graphics adapter, then it needs drivers

Install both the intel and amd drivers given by your laptop's manufacturer. That may work.

Thank you Japa!

But should I really install  the  amd drivers, when the amd is dead ? Is that ok?
