There was also a dock update… that failed… again!
… and it claims that everything is up to date. Same thing has happened every time since I got the thing.

Well I was wondering why the f’n thing updated so long.

It’s all headlines today. No time for anything else,
- Comment on [Discussion] What games have you been playing on your deck? - September 2024 3 months ago:
For some reason I’ve played Noita for the past month. Every time I’ve started to get bored I get a good run and the game dumps something new and interesting on my lap.
- Comment on Will anything dethrone the Steam Deck? Probably not -GamingonLinux 5 months ago:
Only reason I have overclocked Raspberry Pi 400 for net, office and bank stuff are those shitty spyware anti-cheats. This way I don’t have to worry what kind of monstrosities are installed on my deck, because it’s only used for gaming, but you are right, you can manage with just the deck, unless you need some high end proprietary windows software for your self-employed work.

So much good hardware, but lazy obsession to enshittify it with Windows.
- Comment on [Discussion] Double discussion this month, what games did you buy for your Deck during the Steam Sale, and what are you playing on Deck right now? - July 2024 5 months ago:
Agreed. I experimented heavily with different control options and had special configs for all classes and even for some weapon sets. Some things were really good, others remained combersome. Also used the steam controller.
In toughest lvl 5 moments, no tweaking was enough. It was “OK” if you were on the road and with shitload of practice it might have been great.
In the end, I’ve done most of my playing with Dock + keyb + trackball + external display.

So far just Juno: New Origins
I’ve been mostly playing:
- Noita
- Deep Rock Galactic
- Oxygen Not Included
Will pick up Juno when I get a chance to play when I’m not dead tired.
- Comment on EA SPORTS WRC will be adding EA anticheat, game will not playable any more. On ProtonDB game is rated Platinum 7 months ago:
Especiallyspecially in the 80’s the “nerds and jocks” division was tangible. For jocks it was a social suicide to say they played video games or knew how to use a computer and nerds were beaten and bullied for being a member in the local computer club.
Jocks often had secret friendships with a nerd to play video games that they instantly denied if questioned.
So I understand where your hostility comes from, but still a little rough.
Here the setup broke down in the 90’s when jocks started using computers to get to the early social medias, because nerds sisters were there. Sisters had taken interest what their nerd brothers were doing and saw the potential in chats and forums.

- Comment on Exo One, will it run? 9 months ago:
Played it through when it appeared on sream. Not sure if some of the story clips bugged out or was the game just that trippy
- Comment on [Discussion] New month, new games. What are you playing on your Deck? - March 2024 9 months ago:
Gotta get that Deep Rock Galactic anniversary hat.
Tried to get back to Valheim, but so far it hasn’t sunk.
Enjoyed Easy Red 2 surprisingly mutch. You can run it on Steam Deck with max NPC count. Real meat grinding battles. AI has some room for improvement, but it doesn’t ruin it.

Wasn’t it unofficial support? The kind of “at your own risk” stuff linux users get from everywhere.

Why does that post sound like: "Fuck off! …and do nicely without causing a fuss…please.

- Comment on this AI thing 1 year ago:
I find it positive that 70+ are interested in AI. Normally they just yammer away how culture and cars were better and “more real” in the 60’s and 70’s.

I’m quite sure he has already offered, but in Helsinki their private meeting was kept of the books, so we’ll never know.
- Comment on Making plans 1 year ago:
Various. Barotrauma, Phasmofobia, Lethal Company…etc.
Left out Deep Rock Galactic, since if you can’t get friends to joint, you can always make new ones. Only game where randos are never a nuisance.

I was born as unsocial piece of shit. It’s not damage, if you were made that way. It’s a feature.

If 70+ are posting lemmy I’m really surprised.
- Comment on Firmware update bricked dock 1 year ago:
My problems aren’t necessarily caused by the dock firmware.
I used a cheap dongle I bought from a local supermarket a year ago to connect to my living room TV. It had worked fine in the past, but now I had to boot the deck 4 times to get clean picture and audio.
Culprit is definitely the Steam OS update 3.5.5.
I updated the dock firmware right after that update. It actually failed two times and it only worked after I connected the dock with wire directly instead of decks wifi.
- Comment on Firmware update bricked dock 1 year ago:
Yes. Every reboot seems like a lottery. Hdmi, hdmi audio or USB connected peripherals might not work.
If something is missing, disconnecting dock power and deck connection for a moment and you’ll get a reroll and everything might work.
