My vape has firmware updates.
i mean, is it hardware?
if yes, then it has software that translates physical actions to software. that requires firmware.
Holy shit, you just helped me realize why it’s called firmware.
The layer between hard and soft. It shouldn’t be, but my mind is blown.
Dafuq? How didn‘t i think about it in that way before? I always associated „firm“ with company. Makes much more sense now, lol

Yes, he just explained how he figured that out.
If that surprises you wait until you learn what happens if you have an Xbox Controller and do not update the firmware for some time. It might just start crashing your window manager (component of the Windows operating system) at random times for some reason and the games you are playing just suddenly minimize one or two times per hour.
Have I mentioned I try to use Linux wherever the software I want to use is available for it?
Dammit, I shouldn’t have updated it then. That would have been funny as!
Damn, now I want to know what’s worth hiding in your garden
(that’s what he calls his penis.)
Shhh! That’s onlyfans only! Geez…
Not just Xbox controllers, ~all controllers.
Nintendo hides them really well from you but there’s a menu options to go look for updates. My two 8bitdo controllers get quite regular updates, they have their own update tool for it.
Did this to my GameSir hall effect pad too on the very first day.
Yes they can, and I updated it mine, which I bought only to play with my Android phone (I don’t have an xbox) and then Call of Duty Mobile didn’t detect it anymore.
This doesn’t look like Arch Linux.
What’s the benefit of updating a controller?
Updating to BLE and breaking old wireless adapter support, looking at you Xbox
Had to do it recently, because my Steamdeck couldn’t use it. One firmware uodate and it worked like butter.
I would really hate if my controller worked like butter.
Guess it depends on the game.
