  I’m an assembler at a Siemens Competitor; our devices aren’t PLCs and it wouldn’t surprise me if theirs weren’t either.

  Most of our devices are full-on embedded computers that monitor and relay the information of gestures vaguely whatever devices our protective equipment are connected to.

  The most recent version of one of our products is basically a webserver that allows customers to view realtime data of the connected devices and make adjustments where needed. Of course we try to make it as secure as possible, but software is insecure.

  Also, my company tends to lag behind on “cutting edge” things like that, historically preferring to make products that have a solid historical backing, rather than chasing the new. If we’re looking into that side of the business, it’s highly likely that other companies have been doing it for a while.

  I have a lot of controllers (Xbox, PS, Switch). I don’t need a Steam Controller, and I doubt I’ll use it to its full extent, but I ultimately wanted to tell Valve that there’s demand for their hardware.

  Not like they needed me specifically for that, considering they sold out in an hour… but I didn’t know that until it happened

  I’m pretty sure it’ll still work without Steam, you just might not have all the bells and whistles. But according to the site, it can connect to anything with Bluetooth.

  Well yeah, there are only like two gamers in the EU. I’m talking about America, the center of the universe 🦅

  (Just kidding, I’m glad yall seem to have more stock/lower demand)

  I think it’s funny just how popular this thing is. How may people do you think are trying to buy it vs scalp it? 90:10? 80:20?

  Stuck on the payment screen myself. Scrolling Lenny and pressing “Pay Now” every minute or so

  Dang.

  Pop is nice when it works correctly, but I usually have fewer issues with Kubuntu. If you’re still not able to get it going, I’d recommend going the Kubuntu route for a potentially easier time.

  I’ve ran into this issue myself in the past, too. BIOS updates and disabling Secure Boot have been the primary things that have fixed it for me when I run into them.
