There hasn’t really been anything worthwhile to upgrade to yet. More powerful handhelds do exist, but most make use of APUs that are 50-100% more power hungry, while not actually achieving that much of a performance increase.
Valve is waiting for the next generation of 15W APUs, and meanwhile the new Ryzen Z2 A APU is actually based on the one made for the Deck because it’s still basically the most efficient APU they have.
Better will happen. Cheaper than Meta selling the Quest 2/3s at a loss for $300 because they bank on the walled garden of the Oculus app store for profit? Rather unlikely.
Especially now that every VR headset seems to be a standalone and the simple “HDMI cable to a PC” doesn’t really seem to exist any more, so you have to pay for the mandatory integrated gaming tablet as well.
4 STRENGTH 4 STAMINA LEATHER BELT! AAAH OOORHG!
It’s Oblivion exactly as janky as you remember it, this remaster is a weird mishmash where all the visual rendering is handled by Unreal Engine 5 but the game itself is running using the original engine in the background.
It’s even kinda directly compatible with all the old mods, though most will need tiny tweaks to properly function.
So it can kinda be thought of as “Oblivion RTX Remix”, if you know that tool.
Big part of it is entirely automated - setting your username to instead of the generic “@bsky.social” to use your own domain registrar will get you a check, as that proves that e.g. the Wendys account would actually be run by Wendys.com.
The other is bluesky manually giving certain (auto-verified?) accounts the ability to verify others. The example given is New York Times being able to verify all their own journalists.
But in both cases it’s different from the way Twitter used to do it (managing a manual database of all verified accounts) or does it now (lol pay $8 for a useless checkmark)
It’s getting a remaster, but also maybe a remake at some point.
Though it doesn’t need a remake nearly as badly as SS did, the remaster could get it pretty close already.
Hope they keep those maps updated, the assist on our BMW constantly gets the speed limits wrong. There’s a section that was changed from 50km/h to 70km/h years ago and it still gets confused because the signs don’t match the map it’s using, flip flopping between the two multiple times.
But at least it’s just an option, it doesn’t restrict or automatically do anything so it’s not a huge issue.
Honey being one of them, it did start as a simple addon that gathered and automatically tried coupon codes for you. It did exactly what people expected it to do.
But obviously once you start getting hundreds of millions in venture capital funds, and eventually sell yourself to Paypal for 4 billion, it’s clear that isn’t all you are doing any more.
I did assume in the end that it stole all my shopping data, and probably bunch of browsing history in general, which is why I had it installed in a separate browser, but I didn’t expect it to be doing affiliate hacking and blackmailing partner deals for the coupons.
Anywhere from 35C to 75C depending on what you are making. 50C is just about right for most vegetables and mushrooms.
£120 for 12 months means the price for every 1 hour is £0.014. I guess they could be generous and give and refund the entire day - a whopping £0.33 :p
From experience printing a bunch of different planters with varying settings and printers, without post-processing/sealing the answer is “not reliably”. You can increase your chances by using many perimeters and surface layers, high heat, and thicc extrusions, but you are still just stacking swiss cheese slices on top of each other hoping the holes don’t line up.
With days submerged, even the tiniest of defects means water can and will seep in.
It will make it look more fluid. It will feel like it’s running at a lower framerate, and at the framerates BG3 runs at on the Deck, around 25fps or 40ms per frame, the increase would be quite noticeable.
NFS Most Wanted, the original, is fantastic, though it requires manual installation as it’s not on Steam.
Sadly the redux modpack version is just a bit too heavy as it includes a bunch of shaders and stuff you can’t disable. It runs, but you get maybe two hours. Vanilla barely taxes the deck.
But only hackers and cheaters use Linux, didn’t you know???
In our efforts to combat cheating in Apex, we’ve identified Linux OS as being a path for a variety of impactful exploits and cheats. As a result, we’ve decided to block Linux OS access to the game. While this will impact a small number of Apex players, we believe the decision will meaningfully reduce instances of cheating in our game.
It’s also one of the only two requirements for the “Verified” label. Specifically, “the game must ship with a default configuration on Deck that results in a playable framerate.” That’s literally the only thing about performance in the entire process, the rest is all UI and usability stuff.
Default to low and get a playable framerate - whatever that means - and you can get your game verified.
Link only streamed.
This is a Steam TV.
CE mark is often self-approved, it is neither an actual certification nor is there a process or money required. It’s simply a promise from the manufacturer that the product “conforms with European health, safety, and environmental protection standards.”
It either does that and they can put a CE mark on it, or it doesn’t and that product is never going to be available in the EU as-is.
Graphics are graphics, that’s what limits most of the games and devices. Optimize something to run on the Switch 2, and that should work on the Deck too.
That benchmark used to be the PS4, but most developers have dropped support for last gen hardware.
Yes, but there are limitations on switching, iirc something like 6 months between being able to join a different family and so on. They don’t really matter for actual families, but does if you just want to share games with a bunch of friends.
