Good luck trying to wipe my hard drive fuckers 🖕🏻

No doubt windows is still better (or more seemless) overall in regards of gaming especially since Linux kinda emulates (but not really) a windows environment which requires some fiddling here and there and there are still some issues with some Anti Cheat powered games. But still you technically can game on Linux 😄

By now you can use Linux for gaming too. Compatibility layers like Wine or Proton came a long way thanks to the steam deck.

No I’m not. I also have Cryoutilities installed with 4GB VRAM enabled.

I used my credit card (Visa by Klarna) and it worked just fine. But it’s been a while since I’ve been there, maybe they changed something?

I do but I got it „on my holiday“ in India

You have to exchange the RDR2 exe with the launcher exe to stay in the same environment. Otherwise it just creates a new environment like you said.

Change the desired settings and then replace the launcher exe with the game’s exe again.

Lmao that’d be hilarious!

I am curious how Apple will get around that this time. I’m almost sure this will be as funny as the whole story about the USB-C cables

I don’t even think it’s going into the lungs especially with non smokers. If you try to inhale smoke as a non smoker you’ll most likely cough your lungs out. I assume they suck the smoke into their cheeks and blow it out from there.

Shreddit is what I used to clean them all

I don’t think we’ll see a Steam Deck 2 anytime soon.

Is the Deck the best handheld on the market in terms of performance? No.

But if you ask me, it provides the most polished experience with SteamOS and probably has the best price to performance ratio, especially when on sale. If you want to check if your favourite games work on the deck refer to ProtonDB.

Plus you’re not limited to PC games, the Deck is also very good at emulating games. Mario Kart 8, Zelda Breath of the Wild or some PS2 classics like the Burnout series - it will do them all.

It all comes down to your expectations but if you want one, buy it now. Or buy it on the next sale. I got mine in May and I don’t regret the purchase whatsoever. Love to use it for quick couch gaming sessions, on the balcony or when travelling.

Also kinda unrelated but referring to your view on PC parts: yes new generations are released pretty quick compared to consoles but a build using components that are a couple of years old can still be equally powerful to a PS5 for example.

Karen, you forgot to take your pills.

I am currently switching back and forth between Memmy, Mlem and Wefwef (which is getting renamed to Voyager soon). All apps are in active development and have their pros and cons.

I completely left Reddit. A week before Apollo shut down I slowly started to leave subreddits and cleaned my post and comments. The moment Apollo stopped working, Reddit was dead to me either. Lemmy is now my new home.

I really liked apollos approach showing the upvote ratio

Color schemes, maybe customisable, would be exactly what I had in mind! Thanks for the heads up!

I believe using the original keyboard is your best option regarding privacy

I use my deck mostly for casual couch gaming, when travelling or at work. My gaming PC is still in good use though and won’t be replaced by the deck.

But to be totally honest, it’s the tinkering that’s most fun for me. Installing non steam games/applications, tweaking and playing around with settings etc.
