- Comment on Steam controller price 4 weeks ago:
Why couldn’t they make it affordable at around 50 bucks?
Because it makes economic sense to get higher profit margins for peripherals to offset the memory costs for Deck, Frame, and Machine. Gabe’s comment regarding 64GB Deck’s price gave me the impression they rather go that route.
There are good and affordable 8bitdo controllers available anyway, so there are alternatives.

The MuteMotion Core Engine algorithms, binaries, and mathematical transformation logic are PROPRIETARY ASSETS of MuteMotion Tech / Adriano Neto and are NOT governed by this license. Access to the Core Engine is restricted and requires separate licensing.
Booooohhhhh!

How is this legal?
In a world where Meta got caught torrenting entire book archives, anything goes these days.
But strictly speaking, it’s not because it’s based on decompilation and not a clean room reimplementation of the engine. That’s like using a translation service to translate a copyrighted book into another language and then manually iron out the kinks. But in a world of mass piracy for LLM training, nobody gives a shit about such little projects any longer.

- Comment on [Discussion] Would you buy a Steam smart phone? 2 months ago:
Is Valve’s update cycle really worse than what the typical Android device gets?
No but also yes. No because Valve supports their hardware extremely long but also yes because several design decisions of SteamOS as seen on Steam Deck weren’t made with data security in mind. Storage isn’t encrypted, Game Mode has only a simple PIN lock but the underlying Linux account “deck” has no password, so Desktop Mode (=KDE Plasma) cannot be locked out of the box.
That said, Valve will release a Linux ARM version of Steam later this year, so there is no need to solely rely on Valve for a Linux phone that runs Steam and its games.

The OLED Deck is easier to repair yourself if that is a consideration.

- Comment on Valve If You Are Listening Here Are More Accessories That Would Be Awesome!! 3 months ago:
I mean, no phone controller has the same layout as the steam controller.
100% exactly the same layout is impossible, when there has to be room for the phone cradle in the middle. If you want to clip the phone above the Steam Controller, just get one of those plastic holders where you can attach the regular Steam Controller at the bottom side.
If Valve could implement the software to support steaminput when streaming games to a phone from your PC or a cloud PC, that’d be kinda cool.
Steam Link already exists and Steam Input runs on the PC.
a controller with feature parity with the Steam Controller would be an innovation.
The phone’s touch screen already provides the touch pad functionality when using one of the controllers pictured above.

Maybe too far outside their wheelhouse still but can you imagine a Steam Phone?
Valve allows redistribution of the Steam client. Other than resources, there is little that would stop companies like Jolla to put the Steam client on their phones.
- Comment on Valve If You Are Listening Here Are More Accessories That Would Be Awesome!! 3 months ago:
Would be cheaper than regular Steam Controller
Why would Valve make the same Steam Controller again but with a phone cradle in the middle and somehow make this cheaper? It would need to house the same hardware components as the regular Steam Controller AND possibly add an active cooler.
That’s even less realistic than Valve managers reading posts on Lemmy.

Why could a phone controller not have innovations such as those?
OP didn’t ask for additional innovations, OP asked for “the same functionality as the Steam Controller” which the slot-in things + the phone’s touch screen already provide.

You can install an Arch image as well. Distrobox should work fine with these OCI images: github.com/archlinux/archlinux-docker?tab=readme-…
- Comment on [Deck] A Linux Power User Puts SteamOS To Work 4 months ago:
The only time you might “tinker” with gaming is when you want to install, say, an emulator or Heroic from the Discover
ystore (flatpak) to play your non-Steam games, all of which is optional.Playing games from outside Steam is less tinkering in Bazzite than SteamOS because Bazzite supports those out of the box. I don’t have a Bazzite install in front of me right now but IIRC it comes with Lutris preinstalled.

Hopefully the maintainers of RetroDECK compile an ARM version until then: github.com/RetroDECK/RetroDECK/issues/1195
