- Comment on Steam Brick Makes Your Steam Deck Headless 3 weeks ago:
Possibly for 2029 when used Decks become cheap and readily available and great candidates for lightweight HTPCs. Hell, I can see someone who’s put a lot of miles on an original Deck doing this to their original one after getting an updated one/competitor in like a year or two from now. You don’t need to do any modding for that to be honest, but a small device with a screen collecting dust probably looks worse than a box. At least that’s my impression from my Switch. I can see people finding a handheld upgrade more worth it than a PC upgrade (the first 5090 presale listings are up where I am and they’re north of 3000$).
Seriously, I’ve played lots of less-demanding games on my TV via a docked Deck, and it’s been surprisingly nice. A lot of these bundled games I wouldn’t have even tried. What the Golf is a silly mobile game that I got in a bundle that I ended up playing on the big screen. And I’ve bought a lot of bundles in the past, so I’ve got a lot of games to try.
For more demanding games that the system can play, you get tiny battery life. So this does make more things more playable. So I get it.
- Comment on The Microsoft 365 Copilot launch was a total disaster 3 weeks ago:
I’ve never even looked at it that way. I’ve always thought of it as something managers would find to be an ultimate value add.
They overestimate how impressive their chatbots are and assume they can charge everyone a pretty penny for it. The massive costs are just a means to this end.
That’s how it’s always looked to me anyway.
- Comment on [Discussion] Do you use any headphones with your Steam Deck? 1 month ago:
I got a pair of Zero:2 budget earphones. Wires are annoying when you’re used to wireless, but this was a good bet. Sure my AirPods block out plane noise better, but the passive noise cancellation is perfectly adequate on these, even on flights.
For mic audio you can’t beat a physical wire.
