  APR systems also exist and are installed in a good portion of police cars. Likely to get flagged if the plate and make/model do not match.

  I bet anything that they’re hoping for the feds under the new president/king to force CA to let them walk away from the upgrades.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Max is testing always-on HBO channels⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably to cram ads in.

  I love rfc2324 and will someday make a compliant coffee machine.

  For my use, I would still want the battery/portability. Just without an internal display because I use a 1080p HMD and like playing on the Deck in bed, etc. Add a capability like the joycons but symmetrical and with all of the Deck’s inputs, and I’d be quite happy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There's a reason we aren't as harsh on the Steam Deck. Actually, a couple.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would actually rather like a Steam Deck without a display but with at least one full USB4 port and the ability to split it similar to a switch.

  If it could use apple’s messages.app then i would be so happy.

  That’s an Apple problem, not a Steam Deck or Linux problem. Apple refuses to allow support on non-Apple hardware.

  Sounds like an undisclosed campaign contribution.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you using GOG games on your Steam Deck?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Both Heroic and Lutris have the capability, iirc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you using GOG games on your Steam Deck?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve played non-Steam games no bother. Heroic Launcher and Lutris are your friends and can handle everything from downloading and installing to tweaking settings and adding it to Game Mode.

  Most games that I play after pretty old so ymmv. Check any games in ProtonDB - if they are well-rated you’ll be fine.

  In some games, using the trackpad is super useful. Like if mouse-aiming in X3TC.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Spring Sale 2024 live, Valve list the Top 100 games on Steam Deck⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  the trackpads being an actually usable alternative to using a mouse to move a cursor.

  I have to say, I loathe trackpads as input devices almost universally. Somehow, Valve’s hardware designers managed to implement trackpads that I actually like. It’s impressive.

  How were you connecting it to the TV? USB-C DisplayPort? Official dock? 3rd party dock?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a way to turn off R3 ( right joystick hat ) as gyroscope trigger ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Should be able to edit your keymap for chiaki4deck to accomplish that.
