  • Toyota is in fact actively selling hydrogen cars. The Mirai is not awful, as long as you get a lease that includes free hydrogen. They're probably losing tons of money on each one, but they're selling them lol.

  • I never used the trackpad in NMS on the steam deck. Never even thought about it. I've generally found the SD trackpad too fiddly for mouse games and I usually get tired of playing them pretty quickly.

    The trackpad are much more useful in desktop mode on the Steam Deck, and that's where I really feel them missing on the Ally. It's actually really tough, because the Ally is an amazing PC. Just as a straight up windows PC, it is incredibly fast, quiet, and has 4k120 output. It is better than any laptop I've ever owned. It runs Cinebench multicore at nearly 6x the speed as my Surface Book 2. Single core performance is comparable to my desktop with a 5900X. If it had a damn trackpad I would make it my only computer. As it is I'll probably return it because the steam deck is more pleasant to use as a handheld gaming machine.

  • Totally worth it IMO.

    I have a ROG Ally as well and it isn't really "better" than the steam deck, because it uses a LOT more power to get better performance. That is to say, there is no chip out there that's better for handheld gaming than the one already in the steam deck, so there's nothing for Valve to upgrade to. I think they will want a custom chip for steam deck 2, but if they're going custom that means they are looking at ~4+ year lifespans for each generation.

    If you're comfortable opening it up, the base model at $360 is the best deal, and you can add a 512 or 1tb drive.

  • I keep it around so that when I click reddit links in Google they go to RIF instead of the dog shite mobile site. Can't log in or comment though.

    I hid it from the app drawer/list, so I can only get to it by searching or with a link.
