  What exactly is their alternative supposed to be? You do own it more than with Steam.

  A long time ago, near launch. Maybe I should try it again, but tbh I just don’t care much for the game with controller anyway. Partner and I will probably give it another go when it’s inevitable definitive edition comes out.

  Wild to me because when I tried to play BG3 on my Steam deck it was a miserable experience.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo shuts down Ryujinx⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Nintendo DS and Switch are the second and third most sold consoles ever, respectively. Gameboy and GB Colour comes in fourth of you count them together. Wii is sixth or seventh depending on if you group the above.

  I think people like their consoles.

  I’ve seen a few floating around.

  Do you have a study to publish? Because they do.

  My friend, you are naive at best if you think AI data centers are using closed loop water cooling. Look up evaporative cooling towers. It’s “consumed” in the sense that it is evaporated.

  I assume you meant ttrpgs lol, and yup! My group currently plays Pf2e and Fabula Ultima. We’re looking at Slugblaster.

  Solidifying that I’m not touching a dnd product again for a very, very long time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hasbro CEO Says AI Will Become Core Part of Dungeons & Dragons⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not saying there’s no artists using AI, but I am saying I’m friends with a lot, and in communities with a lot, and they all despise AI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hasbro CEO Says AI Will Become Core Part of Dungeons & Dragons⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I encourage you to try other ttrpgs, as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GameCube and Wii emulator Dolphin getting an official Flatpak for Linux and Steam Deck⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been playing my 3DS, Wii, WiiU, Gamecube, and PS2 titles on it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Black Myth: Wukong shows very clearly Valve are selling a lot of Steam Decks⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, but, they did already do an incremental upgrade.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft will try the data-scraping Windows Recall feature again in October⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, I don’t think they ever said “you’re all right, we’ll never do anything like this again and retire the entire idea”.

  They said they were reassessing the security concerns. Which they did, and are trying again with slightly different methodology.

  I’m not telling you to like the feature idea, but you’re acting as if Microsoft is trying to hoodwink people in this specific case, when they are actually just doing what they said they were going to do.

  I’m sorry, the WHAT? Holy crap I know what I’m setting up tonight!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Infest is a deckbuilder where every pixel on the battlefield can burn, freeze, melt and more⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember similar effects in games game in the 90s, granted there were certainly fewer pixels back then lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨dBrand Releases New Steam Deck Skin Based Off of $1 Million Counter-Strike Skin⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s none of the areas that I hold while playing thankfully, it just doesn’t look very good/neat. I might only take off those parts vs leave it partially skinned.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨dBrand Releases New Steam Deck Skin Based Off of $1 Million Counter-Strike Skin⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m actually considering taking my brand skin off my deck. The deck gets hot enough that the skin is starting to warp and slide around in places.
