Yea they keep all the data. I deleted everything on my account when the whole shitshow happened and then GDPR requested the data associated with the account and it was all still there. And when I requested that they delete that too they outright refused.

I have seen some people reporting non working audio with Pulseaudio as well, but I haven’t tried myself or looked more into it after I found what fixes it for me.

No audio is not a Steam Deck only issue, its broken for a lot of people on Linux.

I don’t know what the deck uses but -sdlaudiodriver pipewire in launch options fixed it for me.

The rest of it sounds like a nightmare tho.

I am not from NL, so dunno how it is there, but over here that money is completely untaxed, so it is not quite the same as getting a raise. And yes, if you move the amount you get changes. But noone is dumb enough to move just to get more travel money, it barely covers gas costs, you would just be wasting your time lol.

I don’t get how workers having rights and benefits is ridiculous. Honestly I think claiming that it shouldn’t be a thing is the ridiculous part.

EDIT: just saw its untaxed in NL too, I guess the difference between us and NL is that for them its typical to get that paid, for us is straight up illegal for your employer not to pay that.

This is idiotic. No one compensates employees for their commute.

Yea, thats not true. Where I live any employer legally has to do it. They either pay a certain amount per kilometer (defined by law) or pay your public transportation fee. I rack in about 300€ of travel compensation every month which covers fuel costs. Having to pay to get to work seems to bizzare to me.

Also wait till you learn our lunch breaks are paid and on top of that the company has to either provide a meal or compensate you for that too…

Technically yes. Switched from software dev to QA at a different company. Worse pay, worse commute, 0 regrets. My current company asked me if I would want to work as a dev instead, nope, can’t pay me enough to do that again.
