Yea, it'll probably be fine in the long run or at night when I'm likely to use it. Gotta finish Baldur's Gate 3.

I've probably spent as much or more money on my Deck than I ever did on Steam, and I haven't even gotten it yet (tomorrow is shipping day!). The SSD upgrade and SD card alone cost as much as the base Deck (on sale)!
Most of my gaming has been on the Switch or PS5, but I'm excited for some portable PC gaming, emulation, and game streaming to the Deck. I used to be way into PC FPS games when I was younger, so I'm excited that the Steam deck can provide that Mouse & Keyboard feel with the touchpad (and/or gyro).
Doesn't scratch the same itch yet. I have to cheat and go check out reddit every now and then.
I couldn't even get pass the login screen since I only lurked and never made an account (despite spending over a decade browsing reddit). I remember they used to let you use the app without logging in.
Maybe we need an extremely strong and centralized non-profit with their own Reddit/Twitter/etc. clone. As long as it's open data and open source, I don't really care that it's centralized. We need some entity with enough resources and trust so they can fend of corporate takeover. My vote is Wikipedia, Mozilla, or Linus Torvalds (I want the man himself, not the Linux Foundation).
Gilmore Girls has plenty of plotlines that can appeal to all peoples. If you can get past the teen romance plots, there's something for everyone. And there's always Kirk.
Third party apps present a username and password field to log into a Lemmy instance. They can easily just steal your credentials. There are standard auth flows to solve this problem. The fact that Lemmy devs have willfully ignored this issue for years, and that they aren't warning users not to trust third party apps, lead me to believe they don't really care about security, which is the biggest red flag. There's finally an open github issue that seems to be acknowledged, but it'll be some time before this feature (if ever) ever gets implemented.
-Posted from a third-party app; yea, i gave them my password blindly.
I don't see what the big deal is even. Developers can just continue using the same tooling, and just target a higher graphics budget. Surely Nintendo isn't so crazy as to introduce some backward incompatible changes?
Treated myself to an ultrawide and rtx 3070 during the pandemic for Cyberpunk and Battlefield 2042... and for work and study, of course. Cyberpunk was a bit choppy, but I got used to it--thankfully only ever crashed a few times during my playthrough. Played Horizon: Zero Dawn, Apex Legends, Star Wars: Fallen Order, Titanfall 2, and some other games, mostly FPS/shooters (NMS, hunting games)... then it became a glorified Fall Guys machine for a bit until I got a PS5... next upgrade may be when the 4090s come down in price, or whenever 24 GB of video ram is more affordable (I actually could use the extra ram for work-related experiments). Maybe a sidegrade to the steam deck?
2009, 2015, M1 MacBook Pros. All solid laptops that gave me years of productivity. Touchpad, screen, and form factor are all extremely important for me; I work 75% of the time on the couch with the laptop on my lap (on a laptop pillow of sorts), and having a quiet and cool M1 has been great.
I don't need my esoteric linux setup on my laptop. I've had to use a Windows laptop for work for two years, and I did not enjoy the random lockups, file explorer crashing, driver notifications and malfunctions, windows filesystem, managed spyware by both microsoft and my company slowing things down considerably... and this was a more expensive engineering grade workstation laptop. If I could trim the fat and make it as stable and bloatfree as my gaming PC, it probably would have been a better experience.
Nice. I'd replace the plastic buckle lock with metal ones, too, if you're already opening up the joycon.

Wow, that actually helps a lot, thanks for the tips. Holding it like you described helps a lot. I can tell this is more like I hold my Steam Deck (a looser grip, especially with the thumbsticks being higher on the Deck).
