- Comment on Steam Controller First Impressions and some Issues on Linux 5 days ago:
Does grub only allow one keyboard at a time by default?
- Comment on New Steam update shows four Steam Machine models, though we still don't have a release date 5 days ago:
It’s not really a console at that point. The biggest upside to selling a fully complete out of the box experience is you’ve set the floor. Much like how the steam deck set the floor for handheld performance. People have one point of comparison, how does it compare to the steam machine. Not how does it compare to a steam machine.
- Comment on Got my Steam Controller today 1 week ago:
I came from an elite 2 too. I think I feel the same about the vibration motors. I think the OG 360s are worse than the steams, but the Elites honestly seem about perfect to me.
Also I haven’t measured it, but do the elites triggers feel much longer than the steam? I primarily use a controller to play FH5/motorsport and they feel shallower.
- Comment on Some speculation on the Steam Controller and scalpers 1 week ago:
there’s basically no way you can find no difference between the trackpads on the Steam Controller, and the trackpad on the PS controllers
Never said there’s no difference, just that it’s good enough to navigate the desktop on a couch.
Does a PS 4/5 allow you to fully remap all the controls of a game to literally whatever you want?
Not natively, but they’re a normal directinput device so there’s plenty of software out there to do it. Plus steam input for steam games.
- Comment on Some speculation on the Steam Controller and scalpers 1 week ago:
How many people do you think really want a steam controller? It costs more than an xbox or ps5 factory controller. TMR isn’t unique to the steam controller, the ps4/5 controllers have a trackpad for basic navigating the desktop on a couch, and you can only use it with steam games. (GN review) For any normal person there’s very little reason to get it over the myriad of other great controllers out there.
Valve themselves even said they’re targeting a niche.
- Comment on 50 T of "game consoles" imported by Valve in the past week 1 week ago:
This article says tonnes, but if you go to the original Verge arrival it’s tons.
- Comment on Anyone manage to order a controller? 1 week ago:
It was probably easier to spam continue in PC vs mobile. It wasn’t until I got good at hitting continue before it scrolled I got through.
- Comment on Steam Controller is Out of Stock 1 week ago:
No controller should be proprietary to one launcher on PC. This is classic valve being platform exclusive dicks.
- Comment on Steam Controller is Out of Stock 1 week ago:
Did you get the “There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction.” Error? Just spam continue on that screen. Don’t bother changing payment methods, it’s their processor that’s dying.
- Comment on Land ho, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced's system requirements have washed ashore 3 weeks ago:
Wow you need upscaling to hit 4k 60 on the 4090?
They also suggest the 7900xtx which is a lot worse so may be it just needs an ungodly 24 gigs of vram?
- Comment on Game Pirates Beat Denuvo with Hypervisor Bypasses — Irdeto Promises Countermeasure 1 month ago:
I feel like denuvo is gonna start trying to release CPU microcode some day. Then we can get true bricking.
- Comment on 1 month ago:
They connect to your phone via Bluetooth, or some with cables. You can’t really block Bluetooth without jamming. Idk about China, but in the US that’s highly illegal, and will break every 2.4ghz device (like WiFi)
- Comment on DLSS Multi-Frame Generation Is Now Easier To Enable On Steam Deck, And It Makes Gameplay Worse 1 month ago:
do unsupported thing on unsupported hardware
it’s bad
*socked Pikachu*
- Comment on Microsoft May Remove Windows 11 Online Login Requirement 1 month ago:
25H2 still supports it. I just did the reset option on a fully updated 25H2 machine and it had no issues.
- Comment on Should I buy a used Steam Deck for Forza Horizon 5 and potentially FH6? 2 months ago:
FH6 is supposed to based on the same engine as the new Motorsport game. FH6s minimum system requirements are even more than Motorsport. And Motorsport runs like butts even on a higher end PC. 5 might be playable, but 6 almost definitely won’t be.
- Comment on Newegg stock falls 17.7% after owner is detained by anti-corruption authorities in China 3 months ago:
They’ve been shit since they got bought out.
I’ve only bought from them twice since then, and both times have been awful.
- Comment on Dell admits consumers don’t care about AI PCs 4 months ago:
IBM has been all in on AI for like 20 years.
How long has Watson been out?
- Comment on Dell admits consumers don’t care about AI PCs 4 months ago:
I know Video editing software uses it for things like motion tracking.
It’s all stuff your GPU can do, but the NPU can do it for like 1/10th to 1/100th the power.
- Comment on GNOME & Firefox Consider Disabling Middle Click Paste By Default: "An X11'ism...Dumpster Fire" 4 months ago:
It doesn’t change the fact that it’s a really weird default. How many users actually want this on, vs don’t care/don’t want it?
- Comment on Russian enthusiasts planning do-it-yourself DDR5 memory amidst the worldwide shortage — building your own RAM is as 'easy' as sourcing your own memory modules and soldering them on empty PCBs 4 months ago:
I’m not sure there’s many DDR5 sticks of ram that are ewaste. Most probably still work just fine unless they were DOA and tossed.
- Comment on Valve is stopping production of LCD Steam Deck models, once sold out they will be gone forever 4 months ago:
This is a steam deck, a game console, not a normal computer. If your taskbar is visible 70% of the time I question what you’re doing with the device.
- Comment on Latest Steam Deck update will warn you if an Xbox controller needs upgrading 4 months ago:
Maybe they like bugs that make their controller incompatible with other systems other than the manufacturers.
- Comment on Latest Steam Deck update will warn you if an Xbox controller needs upgrading 4 months ago:
Yeah my OG xbone controllers got numerous firmware updates.
- Comment on iPhone case with e-ink display lets users read books and comics without screen glare 5 months ago:
A Kobo is a hell of a lot bigger than that.
Phones are tall and narrow. For reading books you don’t want to be reading 5 words then having to go down a line. Ebook readers are typically closer to 4:3
- Comment on iPhone case with e-ink display lets users read books and comics without screen glare 5 months ago:
Lets be honest. When they upgrade their phone they’re not gonna bother replacing the ereader thing.
This device is neat in concept, but probably going to be awful in practice.
- Comment on 1GB Raspberry Pi 5 now available at $45, and memory-driven price rises 5 months ago:
Why not get an actual micro controller if you want a micro controller? That’s what the pico line is for.
- Comment on 1GB Raspberry Pi 5 now available at $45, and memory-driven price rises 5 months ago:
1GB Raspberry Pi 5
But why? It’s a shame to pair the actually pretty damn good hardware of the Pi 5 with that little (non upgradeable) ram. It’s future landfill fodder. The 1/2gb Pi 4 is better for that low price point.
- Comment on Thieves are starting to steal RAM now that it's as expensive as gold — a memory kit disappears in the snail mail at four in the morning with a bogus signature 5 months ago:
Yeah… I kinda regret not buying some ram that popped up for cheap like 3 months ago.
- Comment on New tech pulls lithium from dead batteries cheaper than you can buy it 5 months ago:
Maybe they’re just ultra fire batteries?
- Comment on Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console 5 months ago:
Not anymore. That changed with the Xbox one and PS4.
