When you think about it in pure money terms, fixing things becomes a lot more attractive. You can’t get a better deal than $150 for a Steam Deck (the cost to replace the screen on the one you already own).

It’s always tempting to replace old stuff with new stuff, but it also always feels like a big victory when I repair something I already own. There is so much satisfaction in it, especially if you learn a new skill in the process e.g. soldering.

I’m that guy. If my screen breaks I will be looking at a mod like this.

“Epic judge”?

I was hoping for a Martian dating sim from the name.

This is RPS’s style, you don’t have to like it but it definitely fits in.

Try the Steam Link app from your phone. I haven’t tried it with Balatro but I think it worked fine with Slay the Spire.

I have configured systems like Okta and this detail almost makes me believe this is a real leak. 😂

Try turning off Bluetooth. Try turning off ipv6 in desktop mode. Could also be interference from electronics near your router or Deck, like a computer or your neighbour’s wifi.

On the other hand, using ChatGPT for your Lemmy comments sticks out like a sore thumb

I want to play it in couch co-op but I kept hearing that you miss out on content by playing it that way. For a first playthrough, is that true?

Can you give some tips on how to do that? I want to start using Mastodon but right now my feed just isn’t great.

90 degree angled USB cables are a godsend for this.

Touchpad always works, but the haptic triggers and rumble need you to be wired. They also only work in supported games like Spiderman. I remember needing to go into desktop mode to enable the controller’s “speaker” for the rumble.

Do you mean features like the haptic triggers?

Lots of speculation that it’s a new VR headset.

Can you explain how it’s better on the Deck than the Switch?

TotK barely works on a Steam Deck, why do people say this?

Feels like there’s a cold war happening between governments and big tech these days.
