I think you’re in the wrong classroom. Government abortion-clinic cellphone tracking software is next door.

Thank you, Ward Christensen. RIP. I was just commenting on another thread earlier today, recounting my nostalgia for dialing into a small BBS after school and talking to my friends.

I am still running an FX-8320 and it’s fast enough for everything that I need it for. It baffles me to see people arguing about the differences between different Ryzen CPUs.

As someone who modded his controller with metal buttons. Instant regret. It is not comfortable for extended gaming sessions.

Seriously, as an IT person, I still never know what most of my USB ports are capable of, but I’m glad they are backwards compatible. If something is slow, then I try a different cable and port.

Every xbox360 console I have owned or known others to own was defective within a short timespan. I would never trust their hardware ever again.

I have a 2 TB Steam Deck running Bazzite OS. How does this impact me and my family?

Isn’t it weird that only the white people in The Simpsons are yellow? There’s other races that aren’t yellow. And the Simpson’s world mirrors the real word; a large number of yellow people migrated from Eastern Europe to settle in Springfield.

I guess it’s better than the Doug universe, with people being either Caucasian or blue or purple. Very weird choice of representation, Nickelodeon! 👀

Same. The Deck is my main computer and Bazzite is a much better OS than the default. I only wish I could boot straight to Desktop Mode, because I rarely have time to play games anymore.

In some countries Christmas is a national holiday. It’s simply the name of a holiday that affects everyone in my country (USandA). Because of that, it’s both a secular and religious holiday. So do what you want with that. Celebrate by worship, by spending money, by seeing family, or do nothing and enjoy the quietest day of the year (in my city, at least).

And not to mention that Christmas isn’t even a real holiday; the Christians just co-opted and modified all the solstice holidays of every culture they conquered. The only “reason for the season” is to indoctrinate. Merry Christmas!

This is great news. I’ve been using holoiso on my Steamdeck, but the package management is falling apart. I’m excited to try this out.

No roof on Red Rocks, so you can stack about half a million turkeys in that space.

All of the turkeys will fit

Anyone can guess anything! Give it a try!

I can guestimate the number of turkeys it would take to fill any given space. It’s my superpower.

As an amateur web designer in the 90s and early 2000s, this speaks to me. I stopped web development when CSS became popular and I couldn’t wrap my head around it.

Is there a petition I can sign to scrap all this nonsense modern web progress and go back to that beautiful, dial-up friendly HTML?

They all use springs. Modern garage doors use torsion springs which are safer. They look like a small rod mounted on the wall directly above the garage door.

I have a NewQ dock that snaps on the back of the SD and has a built in stand. 5/5 would recommend!

Depending on the games you play and the specs of your desktop, you may or may not be happier with the steam deck. I am a linux user and play basic games. It can play some more intensive games with lower resolution or frame rates. Doesn’t bother me, but some people are all about the highest fastest bestest.

I use it as my primary computer. The handheld ergonomics and thumb track pads make it the most comfortable device I own. I am familiar with KDE / arch, so I am at home in desktop mode. I bought the cheapest one and added a 2TB SSD. I am considering dual booting or just removing SteamOS and installing a standard linux distro. It’s a great computer.

I have a friend who uses the same 4g chip that’s in a PinePhone via USB. This lets him use his Steam Deck as a phone. That’s way beyond my skill level.

I use it everyday, but only occasionally play games on it. I love it for Spelunky 2, Risk of Rain 2, Dwarf Fortress, Rocket League, and puzzle games. I don’t play too many 3d games on it. High performance games seem to run ok, but I don’t have the attention span or time for cyberpunk or similar games.
