I’ve probably spent as much or more money on my Deck than I ever did on Steam, and I haven’t even gotten it yet (tomorrow is shipping day!). The SSD upgrade and SD card alone cost as much as the base Deck (on sale)!

Most of my gaming has been on the Switch or PS5, but I’m excited for some portable PC gaming, emulation, and game streaming to the Deck. I used to be way into PC FPS games when I was younger, so I’m excited that the Steam deck can provide that Mouse & Keyboard feel with the touchpad (and/or gyro).

Doesn’t scratch the same itch yet. I have to cheat and go check out reddit every now and then.

Maybe we need an extremely strong and centralized non-profit with their own Reddit/Twitter/etc. clone. As long as it’s open data and open source, I don’t really care that it’s centralized. We need some entity with enough resources and trust so they can fend of corporate takeover. My vote is Wikipedia, Mozilla, or Linus Torvalds (I want the man himself, not the Linux Foundation).

Gilmore Girls has plenty of plotlines that can appeal to all peoples. If you can get past the teen romance plots, there’s something for everyone. And there’s always Kirk.

Third party apps present a username and password field to log into a Lemmy instance. They can easily just steal your credentials. There are standard auth flows to solve this problem. The fact that Lemmy devs have willfully ignored this issue for years, and that they aren’t warning users not to trust third party apps, lead me to believe they don’t really care about security, which is the biggest red flag. There’s finally an open github issue that seems to be acknowledged, but it’ll be some time before this feature (if ever) ever gets implemented.

-Posted from a third-party app; yea, i gave them my password blindly.

No special features besides removable usb-c hub. I did replace the fan and thermal paste on my Switch last year, which may help if you’re overheating.

No complaints with the jump gate except that one time at a hotel where it overheated my Switch. Been using it for a while now with no issues on an OG Switch.

Multiplayer shrines, spin-off game.

Give me a Nintendo Phone. I already pay big bucks for a phone every few years; what if I pay big bucks instead for a Nintendo Phone that can also play Nintendo games?

I’d love to just whip out my Nintendo Phone and play a quick match or two of Splatoon or solve a few shrines in Zelda wherever I am. I can already imagine the increased netcode lag over cellular data in Splatoon already… maybe it isn’t a good idea…
