  • Holy crap. That's insane! I was wondering what prompted the admins to do the sign up restriction. Makes perfect sense now.

  • I've heard that while it's not exactly SteamOS... ChimeraOS gives a very similar experience, should you own one of those Windows handhelds and don't want to use Windows primarily on it.

  • The Fani Willis reaction to Cheseboro doing this ("Speedy trial? Sure, how about October?") speaks loudly to the strength of her case.

    With racketeering, you have to prove that there was an overarching criminal conspiracy, and then you prove that the defendant(s) was/were a part of it in the ways that you've charged them to be. So all the defendants (regarding the same conspiracy) will have a lot of identical/shared evidence being used against them at trial.

    So tactically, if one or two of the group go first, the rest get to see a preview of most of the body of evidence that will be used against them. If there's any weakness in the presented case, they can craft their defense around it.

    And here, Fani Willis pretty much said, "That's fine."

    They must have every step of this proven beyond any doubt whatsoever. Based on her reaction to these speedy trial motions, if I were one of those people charged in this conspiracy, I'd be very, very worried.

  • Sounds like the recipe to gain a Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask moon to me.

  • You can make the gyro activator any control input on the Steam Deck. Don't be afraid to experiment to find the comfiest option for you.

  • Maybe you’re a bot but only your subconscious knows it.

    This coming from a guy named "Dandroid"

  • The debate shouldn't be about voting for the lesser of two evils. The entire debate should be focused on opening up more options and the actual ability to vote for third party candidates without throwing your vote away, by implementing a different system, like ranked choice voting.

    Continuing to focus on which Sith lord will blow up the country the least if elected is a losing play. We have to do better and focus our attention elsewhere if we have any chance of getting anything reformed.

  • From experience, I can tell you that your bag is safe lol

    They are designed so that the angle of the spray comes nowhere near there. You'd have to do some sort of gymnastics moves to be able to whack the piñata with it.

  • If nothing else... $$$.

    People can get a well-working, basic washlet / bidet to install under their toilet seat for as little as $20 - $30 USD on Amazon. It reduces your TP usage so much that it will pay for itself within a year at most... likely faster.

    I used to go through several rolls a week (I felt like I was personally killing a rainforest, but I can't stand not being clean). After installing my first bidet a few weeks back, I now only use a little to dry, and to double-check that I didn't miss anything. I'd estimate that it reduced my TP usage by probably 80 to 90%.

    That's going to be a not insignificant chunk of change saved over the years.

  • Yeah, I've had general liquid anaesthetic for two different surgeries, almost made it to six once. You're probably a mutant if you get all the way to four lol

  • I've had several surgeries. Two types of anaesthetic.

    First was when I was 4 years old, in the 1980s. Was a gaseous anaesthetic, through a gas mask.

    It was a kind of quasi-consciousness, not that I remember having trains of thought or self-actualization, but I remember there being a feeling of the passage of time. I remember seeing colors. No pain during the procedure.

    Second type of anaesthetic was for my second and third surgeries (aged 13 and 17), a normal liquid, IV-administered anaesthetic. This one was just a complete knock out blank for me. No cognizance of anything. I was just out in one moment during the backward from 10 countdown, and aware again in the recovery room, in what felt like 3 to 5 seconds later (it was, of course, a couple of hours later).

    This second type of anaesthetic had the interesting post-surgery side effect of continuing to knock me out (with no time passage perceived) for hours after the surgery. I would, in my perception, blink, and my visitors would suddenly warp across the room because my eyes hadn't been shut for .1 second like it felt to me, but actually a couple of hours per occurrence, of dreamless, non-time-passing "sleep". Not an experience I'd had before, or since. The last surgery (17) was a bit less disconcerting in regards to this, because I knew in advance about the effect from the previous surgery (13) .

  • He already surrendered his passport, so if he leaves the country, he'll have to sneak into another.

  • I already have trouble with small game text at 800p. Why would I want higher resolution on the same size screen to make it tougher to see?

  • Tiny text and 40s eyes cause me to want to play a lot of stuff docked, but Hollow Knight was a fantastic experience on the Deck.

  • It's a classic. I'm going to revisit it after my BG3 playthrough. I never did complete it previously.

  • Then we can pick up a Steam Deck 2 and get double nose cancer. Fun times for all.

  • Easy for you to say that, not being the one footing potential legal bills.

  • He's 77 and isn't exactly in supreme shape. Any cumulative sentence of more than a dozen years is most likely life in prison.

  • I use it all the time. For everything besides gaming, where I like having the integrated gaming mode UI instead.

    Of course, the Deck is my only PC currently, which isn't the use case that most have for it.
