- Comment on [Help] Swapped nvme from old deck into new deck, now headphones don't work 19 hours ago:
I keep everything including games backed up and accessible over lan and haven’t felt the need to clone a drive ever. If I didn’t have space I’d just delete a bunch and local transfer if I wanted to play it later. It really just boils down to distro hoppers gonna hop though…
- Comment on [Help] Swapped nvme from old deck into new deck, now headphones don't work 1 day ago:
bazzite is layered on fedora which is the bulk of the system and fedora isn’t going anywhere any time soon but with the small market share of linux in general valve does have much more recognition in the gaming community which is traditionally very windows leaning. I’ve also seen people preferring it because of the arch base but rolling release distros being converted to atomic is an iffy choice. but yeah switching is only worth it if starting over is already necessary. I switched when I did the nvme upgrade.

yeah I’d just stay until an unresolvable problem that needs a wipe comes up
- Comment on [Help] Swapped nvme from old deck into new deck, now headphones don't work 1 day ago:
if you end up having to start over anyway I would also recommend this. I’ve been using it since the first release and I only reinstalled once when putting in the nvme (was the mmc model). before that I had to factory reset twice and reimage once and never figured out what the cause was for any of the problems. plus most of the recommended deck tweaks on steam os are default on bazzite

- Comment on GEEKDeck Is A SteamDeck For Your Living Room 5 weeks ago:
you can do this with any pc as long as none of the parts have issue in a linux distro. There’s no need to go out of your way to use a piece of crap. I used to browse hackaday for days on end when I was a kid but “here’s a guy that installed a linux distro on hardware that he didn’t expect to work and it worked” isn’t the tier of article that drew me in back then, and is also a couple decades behind the curve for that kind of linux news.

- Comment on What emulated games hold up in 2025? 5 weeks ago:
2d games in general and basically anything that isn’t pre-analogue stick 3d. Some games have quality of life mods/ patches available that make camera not suck, etc.

or don’t and use luanti and voxelibre, especially if you have kids so they aren’t exposed to in game purchases

- Comment on Half-Life 3 is just the hot exclusive Valve needs to propel SteamOS past Windows 5 months ago:
not saying that valve would do this or that they should, but if that they did people would defend it. People defend a lot of things that don’t benefit anyone
- Comment on Half-Life 3 is just the hot exclusive Valve needs to propel SteamOS past Windows 5 months ago:
probably all the fanboys will come out of the woodwork to defend it just like console exclusives
- Comment on Modder transforms Steam Deck with broken display into a mini PC, and you can too 5 months ago:
seems worse than just buying the repair part. or if bios mods aren’t scary, getting deckhd screen or the oled mod for lcd decks I forgot the name of.

thanks. this looks good, I’ll check it out
- Comment on Amazon shuts down Chime, its Zoom alternative 5 months ago:
is there a generally recommended foss alternative? self host servers ok.
I have some people that want to do zoom meetings for some stuff but not only is it closed source, shitty in general, and counterintuitive, it has a time limit. Like what the actual fuck…

- Comment on Welcome to the Microsoft Excel World Championship: The ‘Super Bowl for nerds’ 6 months ago:
superbowl was already for nerds. I struggle to see fanboying over a sports team or athlete and their game history and stats as significantly different from diving into the lore of a video game or book or anything really.

I do prefer 16:10 but I broke my screen and tge deck has been in a drawer so I’ll try it out. I’ve also been using an oled on the desktop and its so suffer and misery using anything else now.
- Comment on Might as well get a laptop??? 6 months ago:
even with the tiny switch screen we played smash ult on it in kickstand mode with controllers in the break room. turns out if everyone uses dual joycon you get mad input lag before reachinh max players.
bigger lug like this that would be a nicer experience

what is different in the fork? it looks lile yet another fork where they don’t detail its purpose or differences anywhere and use the exact same readme and other text as the original.
- Comment on Valve May Start Selling Refurbished Steam Deck OLEDs Soon 7 months ago:
does the oled have 4 pole or just 3? One of the reasons I dont use the jack on the lcd is lack of single jack headset support while not even having a dedicated mic jack
- Comment on Discord finally fixed Linux screen and audio sharing with Wayland 8 months ago:
no I mean people or organizations using specifically discord as their sole support platform and the janky threads feature in place of a real forum, but a lot of useful info buried and not pinned in the general channel and whiny assholes that get mad at you for not searching on the shittiest search implementation known to man which still gives you multiple or all channels of results when you single out specific ones. The worst part is when you search something and it gives you posts from a single thread, out of order as well as interleaved with other threads.
Then you pick one but its useless and when you go back it refreshes and gives you the list from the beginning with slight order variations to keep you on your toes.
