There was a request to halt sales until the specific mechanics were removed, with the mechanics being throwing pokeball like items and riding monsters.
That lawsuit might take years, and the requested damages from Nintendo are only $66,000. Palworld isn't going to be shut down anytime soon, even if they lose the case.
The steam deck is much wider than a normal controller, so much less of an angle is needed for a comfortable grip. There's a reason that most handhelds (Switch, Rog Ally, Lenovo Go, Wii U gamepad, etc) don't have angled grips.
I find the regular steam deck to be very comfortable for it's size and weight.
Honestly, the biggest issue with the original was that it's non-traditional layout meant that games with built in controller support didn't necessarily work well on it. This layout will make it full featured as a "normal controller", while offering additional input options when the game benefits from it.
Great game, it and the original Pixel Dungeon were my most played phone games for years.
Another high quality mobile experience I can't recommend enough is Slice & Dice. Gameplay is quite different from Pixel Dungeon, but it's basically replaced all other phone games for me. Been playing it almost continuously now for the past 3 years.
Yeah, games like DRG prove that season xp/unlocks can be fun and rewarding. But the key there is that:
It's completely free
You can replay old seasons anytime, so there's no cosmetics that you miss out on if you don't finish by the end of the season
Done like that, it's a fun system that gives you extra rewards for playing. But there's never any punishment for not playing enough in a fixed period of time.
Once you've added lutris to Steam, you'll be able to launch games through it from game mode. However, I would only try to install new games through it in desktop mode, due to the number of windows it opens during installs.
Could just be the types of games I play, but it's really rare for me to run into a game that doesn't work out of the box these days. And Disgaea has always had a fair bit of brand recognition imo.
That link was just specifying that there was a difference between adaptive charging on the pixel 4, and later pixels. All pixel phones from 4 onwards have it, but I'm guessing it's a pixel software specific feature.
Usually slow charging is just the standard USB 2.0 output, which is 5v 0.5A (so 2.5 watts). That was all the USB standard officially supported for a long time, but many devices and chargers actually supported up to 5v 1A (5 watt) or 5v 2A (10 watt) charging. Those would usually be considered normal charging.
Fast charging has a couple different specs and voltages, but can go up much higher. My steam deck supports 45w charging, and some laptops support 65w or higher.
Slow charging is actually better for battery longevity than fast charging. For example, my phone will limit it's charging speed at night when I have an alarm set, because it assumes I won't need it until my alarm goes off, and the slower it charges the less damage is done to a battery.
In general, lithium batteries are damaged by heat. Rapid charging creates extra heat, so it's worse for the battery. Manufacturers work hard to minimize the damage of quick charging, but it's still somewhat better to slow charge when you have the time.
You can look up videos of some of the stores that were closed, they were basically being straight up looted.
I remember seeing the videos, and thinking to myself how I didn't understand how they could afford to stay in business like that. So when they announced they were closing those stores for theft, I didn't really think the given reason was ever in doubt.
Fossil fuels is kinda a prisoner's dilemma issue. Everyone cooperating to save the planet is obviously ideal, but realistically there are always going to be companies/countries that won't. And as long as it's cheaper to not be environmentally friendly, there's always going to be someone taking that option.
For example, lets say country A passes new regulations on manufacturing to be more environmentally friendly. The new regulations take the country's manufacturing from low pollution to very low pollution. However the increase in cost causes many companies to stop manufacturing locally, and instead outsource their manufacturing to country B with low regulation and moderate pollution during manufacturing. The end result is more money leaving the local economy of country A, and increased global pollution.
It's a similar prisoner's dilemma for the individual companies involved. If your competitor is able to make their product for cheaper because their process is less environmentally friendly, then they can undercut you and put you out of business.
