Huh. Never seen something like this, thank you!

I’m having a very hard figuring out what you are describing, but im also huge into Ear Buds, I just hate not being able to hear my surroundings when it gets dark.
Could you share an example?

I wonder how long they will be given to comply, considering Meta attempted to say they don’t even have tools in place to categorize or limit their users data for ad purposes.

In the steam decks case yeah.

Yeah but a Deck is a Pc, which can absolutely run Windows. Therefore, they are the same thing. A high end PC AND a steam deck feature the “Biggest game library on earth”.
Doesn’t even have to run well. The fact that you can attempt to play it in the first place let’s it win the medal.
Any version of Playstation can’t even attempt to play half the games on a deck ;).

So continue to root for Linux? You got it! Go Steam Deck ;D.
- Comment on Will anything dethrone the Steam Deck? Probably not -GamingonLinux 5 months ago:
Right on! As long as it works thats all that matters. I’m just happy that handhelds and Linux derivatives are finally getting the light they deserve.

Aren’t steam deck 64gb versions currently cheaper than that? Hell, i could easily sell my OG steam deck for 300$, but was only asking for 200.
How well does it actually run games? Isn’t the ROG still for all intents and purposes, on Windows?

I completely got rid of my pc thanks to this haha. I mean its my media device, I play all my games, I even do dnd from it! With my Wacom its perfect for design/drawing all that fun stuff.
I understand there are a few use cases that don’t work great on the deck, but personally… Its the best. My deck is getting a little old now, the control sticks are starting to wear out, and yet it still runs just as well as day 1. I will be buying a “replacement” soon, and likely will be able to still sell my old one for 100$ or so.
- Comment on Took the plunge after 2 years, and replaced the Delta fan with a Huaying one 6 months ago:
Doesn’t sound all too wild to me, except the keeping the deck on for extended periods of time… Definitely a good idea to restart it more than once a week… Hell, im very confident I have to power cycle it enough that I won’t make it to a week without a restart lol.
I am constantly switching between desktop and gaming mode, and I like to power cycle it occasionally when doing so. Primarily to prevent any bugs from popping up
- Comment on Took the plunge after 2 years, and replaced the Delta fan with a Huaying one 6 months ago:
I use a Jsaux dock for the deck, all of my peripherals have been plug and play. Including my 5+ year old Wacom which blew my mind. (It worked right out of the box where Windows didn’t let me properly configure it… I felt like a schoolkid!)
Anyway, I say this cause I wonder if their was an issue with the dock, or if you just use oddball peripherals.
- Comment on Steam Deck game library now 29% larger than that of Nintendo Switch 6 months ago:
I don’t know what to tell ya, im sorry your experience is so buggy. My 7 year old child has been able to walk around and it enjoy it like a switch, thats literally all that matters to me. Lots of other people like to complain and it say its not stable at all, and thats just simply not true either.
- Comment on Steam Deck game library now 29% larger than that of Nintendo Switch 6 months ago:
Thats what I’m saying, a hub and a steam deck act the same as a switch, I don’t understand your point.
- Comment on Steam Deck game library now 29% larger than that of Nintendo Switch 6 months ago:
Do you know what a hub is? Same exact thing
- Comment on Steam Deck game library now 29% larger than that of Nintendo Switch 6 months ago:
What? Didn’t realize it was such a draw, but irregardless as I said, you just unplug the screen. Its as easy as that with a hub, just like a switch. I do it daily.
- Comment on Steam Deck game library now 29% larger than that of Nintendo Switch 6 months ago:
Generally speaking you’re either playing docked, or sitting down. Not typically both, but I know what you mean. Even then though, any of the games he plays just automatically readjust the resolution to handheld mode and works just fine. Then when you plug it back in, it knows to stop using the steam as monitor 1 and switches the output to the TV.
Not sure how you’re doing it, but its worked fine for me.
- Comment on Steam Deck game library now 29% larger than that of Nintendo Switch 6 months ago:
You say that, but I can keep my deck in docked/gaming mode, and my son who’s only 7 has been playing away it like its a switch.
I think people just like to make excuses for their spending habits, which isn’t wrong at all. It just becomes disheartening when you say such blatantly wrong things.
- Comment on Best deck games for a flight? (as in...possibly running on batteries) 8 months ago:
Second this, especially if you do want to play bigger games like Cyberpunk. Also tends to come in handy for road trips, or extended stays outside which I love.
- Comment on Never occurred to me to use it this way until my brother came to visit. 8 months ago:
Try weapons like the punisher. I’m a deck only user, and while I’ve gotten rather good with the dominator, the punisher helped me get good so to speak with lots of spraying and praying.
I play on helldiver difficulty with my deck, so it is possible.

Yo thank you for the suggestion, this game looks hilariously amazing. For anyone else, its also in space and looks like a darn blast if you love space themes. Only 15$
