To engage a bit less glibly: Capitalism is very bad, private property (as distinct from personal property) is very bad, and intellectual property is an especially nonsensical form of private property which urgently needs to be destroyed. All software should be Free in the FSF Four Freedoms sense.
Everybody should pirate, everything should be fucked up
Early model switch is the only switch worth getting unless you want to do a pretty microsoldering heavy hardmod, check the serial number against the list on this page before you buy
Sony v Bleem ended with victory in court for Bleem, but it also ended with Bleem out of money and out of business. Nintendo doesn’t have to have a legal leg to stand on to practically win, just a big pile of money which they definitely do have.
If you’re gonna buy a switch look for a used one old enough to be software hackable and pirate all your games
Marking all your comments CC BY-NC-SA is a good bit.
The point of NFTs (beyond the pyramid scheme) was to enforce artificial digital scarcity at the individual level
Most people are much more willing to pirate from a global megacorp than from an actual human person.
The publishers are not against libraries per se
Piracy is not stealing, but both piracy and stealing from corpos are good to do
Search the filenames. Guides only tell you to get them from a switch because of plausible deniability.

The battery life is not great but not terrible, it could do six hours on light use and low brightness after several years of normal battery degradation, and I would expect the equivalent model with a newer processor to last longer. The stylus support is proprietary, you need the Lenovo brand stylus, but it works as you’d expect with pressure sensitivity and all. I primarily use it for note taking in Xournal++.
I use a Lenovo IdeaPad FLEX 14API with PopOS on it, it’s a flip over style covertible with stylus support and it’s working pretty well for me. The specific model I have is a few years old now, but there are certainly modern equivalents. The only hardware on it that doesn’t work out of the box with Linux is the fingerprint reader, but I don’t use that anyway.
The good future includes the total and final death of Trusted Computing, which means the end of capitalism.
I use Xournal++ it’s not perfect but it does what I need it to as a stylus note app.
The situation with Windows and DOS is as if ChromeOS took over so decisively that Linux became nothing more than a historical curiosity.
No it’s worse. Tying the OS and GUI together to the extent they are in modern post-95 Windows is a major cause of the learned helplessness OP is talking about
Specifically from the introduction of Windows 95 tying Windows and MS-DOS together. While Windows was an application running on DOS Microsoft tried various schemes to break compatibility when it was run on other competing DOSes, and Windows 95 was the final stroke of that strategy by tying the GUI inextricably into the OS.
All a consequence of Microsoft monopolistically tying windows to the OS to push out other competing DOSes
