Comment on After a year in its company, I’ve done a complete 180 on my Steam Deck
penquin@lemm.ee 5 weeks agoI have a nice desktop, but I still play the deck. Sitting in a chair for a while gets painful at times, especially when you work from home ON a computer. Lol.

That’s fair! With our setup I can sit in a chair, or lay back in bed and still play games! If we didn’t have that option, I’d probably have a use-case for a deck hahaha
It’s tough for me to go back to 100FPS or less after a long time playing at 165hz!

Man, you know what I’ve been dying to do? Build a steam machine and connect it to my TV in my bedroom. That would be epic. Find a smaller PC or collect some used parts from Facebook market place and slap BazziteOS on it and go to town.

Hell yeah! That sounds dope! I have computers connected to all of my screen in our house, but they’re moooostly running Windows 10. Just a couple pis running Linux… the GUI on a Pi5 is laggy but it runs 1080p YouTube perfectly so that’s fine. I should start converting my machines to Linux… my main game machines I think I’ll keep on Windows 10 until Linux is closer to 100% compatibility. It’s getting there!

Honestly, good job. Fucking tvs nowadays are absolute garbage anyway. So are those stupid little fire sticks and their likes. If you think Linux doesn’t fully work for you (understandable), Check out Titus’s debloat tool. Make yourself a micro windows 11 ISO and use it instead of the official build. I got one running in a dualboot setup, and it’s extremely light. You may be missing some drivers, but they’re easily installable. I’ve been thinking of this, too, myself. Tvs have some of the most spying software ever.
