Want me to dim the lights and get you an aspirin?
I think we might have different definitions of minimalist, but have a look at a Raspberry Pi 500 (or a pi 5 if you want to keep your own keyboard) and an external 3.5inch USB hard drive. I am pretty happy with a 400 and would use it as a nettop/netbook.
I haven't got my hands on one, bur I remember reading it can do two 4k monitors.
In that setup youx could keep the os on the microsd and also get a SSD for a high speed work area, copy to HDD when finished with projects.
And the dinghy got him all the way to dock. What more could anyone want.
I wasn't trying to say that fault tolerant practices like journaling file systems wouldn't be used, but to use an analogy, the system knows that when it's low on power and tired to the point it needs a recharge, it can stop and lie down deliberately rather than keep running until it drops and maybe fall over and hit it's head.
With the dot matrix?
I'm not a switch expert but can think of a reason why it might do this.
The system might show it's battery level to you as 100% to 0% when it might actually be draining from 100% to 5%. That last 5% might be used as a sort of internal Uninterruptible Power System .
When the system boots up it might be doing some things where a power failure could have severe consequences like bricking the unit if the plug was pulled out and there was no battery.
The system might use some swap space like storage or have some key variables kept in RAM which needs to be written out to non-volatile memory before the chips are powered down.
For example let's say it hibernates and it doesn't or incorrectly writes the wrong instructions pointer address When the system poweres up, it might try and execute game data instead of instructions and not recover.
Nintendo wouldn't want to handle heaps of complaints of bricked systems due to exceptional circumstances like a power outage if it let the switch play off mains alone.
That's my theory, I could be wrong and I'm sorry it's frustrating you.
Is there a third options like scissors which can defeat one of these but not the other?
The first thing I'd recommend is try to figure out which genre to play first. I think cyberpunk is way different from DND which is also has different rules than pathfinder. Warhammer 40k is also a. Tabletop game that is more combat oriented and no role playing.
Starting a new group could be hard. Some games shops have play areas for people and I guess they sort of rent space to regular and adhoc groups. I know of three shops which not only sell games, but are setup for people to play there on a Thurs night etc. repeat sales of drinks and may a small charge for the table and game sets could be used from a communal library.
Some games are role playing heavy and others are combat focused. In some groups the DM is always the DM but in others they take turns. There might be a long campaign where the players control the same character from novice to expert/demigod or one shots could be used to fill in some nights, eg dm might be a teacher and one shots are run on school holiday weeks if the group meets.
I would say the trick is to find a group that's in the same page as you. This can be assisted by having a :Session zero where players meet and discuss what they want from the game so that someone who wants to play a more role playing game and want to actually try and talk their way out of being robbed by bandits instead of 'rolk a d20. 3, everyone draws weapons and combat begins'.
The aim would be that everyone at the table looks forward to sessions and has fun, and as for rules there's always 'the rule of cool'. Where the DM can ignore what's in the book if it fits with what the players expect. Players jumping off a cliff to escape a fight might not necessarily die from fall damage if it fits the story line, however if a player is about to do something overly careless, the DM might ask the question ' are you sure you want to do that?' and the correct thing to do is stop and reconsider as that phrase is usually a warning of the character will probably die if you do.
Thanks for the link, that's pretty much what I was thinking of, but I remember reading at 'the other place' about downstream creators being upset about features of a new license (open gaming license?) that could have insisted on a cut of revenue from 3rd party packages, so wizards published a copy of their handbook under an open license. I was meant to read it cover to cover one day, but that day hasn't arrived. hope OP gets the chance to though.
You mightnt even have to buy a book. Im pretty sure a DND players handbook was published under a creative commons license about 2 years ago.
Maybe OP can buy one when they find a group and system they like.

I was out recently noticed two Tawnys in a tree, i was surpirsed as the last i saw any was around a year ago and it was just one where i’d always seen two together.
These two looked very tired. The one on the left was more awake and i felt like i was being glared at. ‘Dude, I’m watching you, I don’t like you and if you come closer, we might have to move, and we really, really don’t want to do that’.
So i came close enough to get this shot and left them in peace but am keeping an eye out for them the next time in the area.

Mods: Sorry if this doesnt fit the sub, but I think people commonly mistake Tawny's for Owls, and they're the closest animals to owls Im likely to see. The image is Original Content (taken by me). Let me know and i'll post to birding or just pics.

Another cockatoo was also eating in another tree. I got the feeling they knew they were being photographed, but one of them screeched an alarm shortly after and the whole group flew off. I saw a flock well over a hundred flying around the suburb later that day.

As I was walking past, i saw the three Sulphur Crested Cockatoos on the street light and I lined up to get a shot of them early in the morning, but i didnt expect the two magpie-larks to photobomb the shot.

[OC] Sydney CBD, Opera House and botanical gardens viewed from the harbour +2 more pics in body.
(lemmy.world)
Behind the Sydney Opera House is Circular Quay, which is the hub of ferry traffic in the harbour. There's also private vessels, cruise ships, , a floating bar and the occasional military vessel.
There are several classes of ferry in the fleet, including rivercats (on the left) which have a shallow draft as they travel up the river to Paramatta.
The largest class of Sydney Ferry are the Freshwater class which travels to Manly and back near the Sydney Heads which can lead to a bumpy ride if there's a swell.

Well, that's another way to be sure. When taking off and nuking the site from orbit isn't quite enough.
