I’ve always thought gpu/hardware accelerated encoding was the same thing and worse than software encoding quality wise but way way faster. Does that mean the gpu can software encode with vulkan support?

First I’m hearing of this. I don’t really understand how it works? From what I’ve read it says it’ll take your money to some exchange and then give you an anonymous digital version in the app/account. I’m assuming it’s not as simple as putting a card in and being able to buy something like on Amazon or something. Both the seller and buyer need to use it right?
- Comment on The Lossless Scaling FG Plugin Has Released To Controversy - Steam Deck HQ 5 weeks ago:
Looks like there was an update:
Update 7/14/25: Pancake has just posted a new update on the Decky Plugin controversy on the Lossless Scaling discord server:
Hello everyone! I’d like to clear up some things after the previous announcement, which caused way too much unnecessary drama.
Behind the scenes, I’ve been talking to both Deck Wizard and Kurt (xXJSONDeruloXx on GitHub), who is the creator of the Decky plugin. The situation we got into was caused purely by poor communication, so we sat down and discussed the future of the plugin together.
Let’s get into the news then. The Decky plugin will remain unofficial and unsupported in this discord, not as a means to discourage using it, but rather to keep the growing load of support away from me, as I have barely anything to do with the plugin. Together with Kurt and Deck Wizard we’ve fixed the major labeling issues in the plugin, as well as created an update video on Deck Wizard’s channel that you can watch here: Future support with the Decky plugin will happen in the Discord server linked in the video description and depending on which category your issue falls into, you may be forwarded to this discord instead.
In the future, some pretty big changes will be coming to lsfg-vk which will likely require a portion of the plugin to adapt. I will be working with Kurt to get the changes into the plugin as quickly as possible, however this warrants a whole other announcement and I can’t promise any timeframe (it could be hours, days or weeks).

- Comment on The Lossless Scaling FG Plugin Has Released To Controversy - Steam Deck HQ 5 weeks ago:
Doesn’t seem like that much controversy. Just a plugin that got released early in development and will have to be rewritten at some point. I’d probably hold off until a full release but early showcases I’ve seen of it seem really promising and I’m excited to see the completed version.

Is ram that’s used on arm chips usually lower power than x86 or can they be interchangeable?

Bought and played helldivers 2 for the first time. Would’ve originally bought it on release but I was sused out by the game protect program. Seems like it’s been fine for most people up to now so I went with getting it finally.
- Comment on Steam Deck sales still going strong over three years later 3 months ago:
The main appeal for the deck to me is the ability to run games well on lower wattages. Sure the other options can run games better than the deck but it seems like you want handheld efficiency/battery life over better performance for less battery then the deck is the main choice.
- Comment on The BenQ beCreatus GR10 USB4 Steam Deck Dock is simply great 9 months ago:
Like the inclusion of USB 4 and HDMI 2.1. 4k120hz is nice but it’s too bad the deck can’t currently support that. Might buy one just to have for a future deck 2 support of the high refresh rate 4k.
- Comment on Trying to run my EmuDeck RetroArch saves on other devices, getting an error. 9 months ago:
Ah sorry GBA games have like 5 different save types based on the flash used in them. Like EEPROM, SRAM, and FLASH. Usually that’d need to be configured in the emulator for the save type per game if it isn’t auto detected but I’m not aware of that being the case for DS. You could try a save state on one device and see if it loads on another.
- Comment on Trying to run my EmuDeck RetroArch saves on other devices, getting an error. 9 months ago:
Are they the saves for the rom or is it a save state? I know saves on something like GBA need to be configured for flash type but idk if the same is needed for DS games.
- Comment on Valve is working on a version of proton for ARM devices 10 months ago:
This is something I’ve always wanted from them ever since I learned that the current ways that emulate x86 use proton on top of a bunch of other stuff. Would love if this was able to be used on phones.
- Comment on Games that support the Deck's multitouch 1 year ago:
I have to imagine it’s because sky was released on mobile first so the multitouch option was already there. Really cool that it works though! Maybe other mobile games that got ported would have similar functionality?

It’s interesting that it’s still classified as foreign media even if the streamers could be local. Wonder if there’ll be a Korean twitch competitor that comes out of this.

Hate to see that. Recently played through time splitters future perfect with my friend and had a great time on the Xbox backwards compatibility. Hopefully the time splitters rewind project makes good progress and releases at some point.

- Comment on Valve: don’t expect a faster Steam Deck ‘in the next couple of years’ 1 year ago:
I can’t imagine they’d be able to use an off the shelf processor for the next one. The performance at lower wattages on the deck is so much better than current laptop processors or the Z1.
