What are your use cases for the Steam Deck?

  • Thanks for the reply!

    • What are your use cases for the Steam Deck?

    Jump

  • Did you follow a guide to get Skyrim modded on the deck? I've modded it on Windows but never Linux.

    • Theory: the only reason Meta cares about the fediverse / ActivityPub is so that threads isn't labeled a "gatekeeper" under the EU's new "Digital Markets Act"

  • I don't know if I'd feel like I'd be missing out on anything personally, I don’t have any interest in what people from Facebook or Instagram have to say as I feel like it's going to be pretty watered down interactions with little thought behind it.

    If they remove themselves from the fediverse equation after amassing a following, I would hope we would be left with what we just have here at the moment, which I'm quite happy with.

    • What are some of the best purchases of your life?

  • Instant pot/air fryer combo - I like that I can make one-pot meals in it as I really don't like cooking, and anything I make in there cooks fast. Pasta, rice, meats, there's so many recipes.

    Bissell Green Machine - it can wash furniture/carpet. Great for spills, if you have pets. Wash the upholstery in your vehicle. Small and compact. I use it a lot.

    Large Honeywell air purifier - my husband smokes a fair amount of pot. I really don't enjoy my space smelling like it all the time. This thing sucks up the smoke and I don't have to deal with it. I buy the replacement air filters on Amazon.

    Steam Deck - I love this thing. I love gaming but I'm tired of sitting at my desktop. It's like a small handheld computer too, so you can do other things on it besides run Steam. Right now I'm using it to stream CraveTV to my TV since my Raspberry Pi streaming box isn't working.

    • Gaming on Linux has come a long way

    Jump

  • I keep hearing this, but I personally have yet to see it. Definitely most of my games run just as well on linux, but otherwise some of them are still glitchy.

    Don’t get me wrong, I'll never go back to Windows, I love Linux, but what are these games that run better on Linux?

    • mastodon's growth

    Jump

  • My understanding is that only kbin can interact with both Lemmy and Mastodon while also showing its own threads/magazines/whatever. Lemmy can only see Lemmy and Mastadon can only see Mastodon.

    I'm on kbin and also have access to read and comment on Lemmy posts, though I'm not sure how to access Mastadon as I don't see them show up when I search for other communities..

    Edit: looks like I have to search Microblogs when I want to see Mastadon. Seems kind of confusing though, I don't think I understand how Mastodon works.
