Quoting: gradyvuckovicAs a happy owner of an LCD Steam Deck and using it every night for gaming, to me that's an absolute bargain, if I didn't own one right now, I'd snap that up in a heart beat.

Idem, I got a 'refurbished' LCD Deck and I love it, I've played IDK how many hours of Speed Dreams on it, it's awesome.

Quoting: dpanterI have a feeling they cannot prohibit this in Sweden... but I have another solution, just live forever. Simple un-death hax.

Just a simple iddqd, huh? That's cheating, though, I don't wanna be a cheater...

Quoting: Liam DaweWhat bug or feature are you currently waiting on being sorted?

I have an issue with my Deck where sometimes the right trackpad is a bit oversensitive to being clicked, it'd be nice to reduce its sensitivity without having to adjust it for every single game. It's a particularly nasty problem to have when trying to input text with the virtual keyboard as I'll get unwanted H's when I want to hit B, or M's before space, or stuff like that and there's no controller configuration for the keyboard.

Quoting: Linux_RocksWhen Kubuntu finally adopts KDE Plasma 6.x, that's when I'm switching from Linux Mint.

I don't know whether Plasma 6 is really ready for prime time yet. I've been using it on both Arch and OpenSUSE TW for a couple of months now and it seems to have issues with remembering window positions and sizes. I had to add a window rule to maximize Konsole despite having 'remember window size' checked in the settings, for example.

They probably should swap the right analogue stick and the face buttons, because it looks really awkward to use.

To date Fallout 4 still remains the only game I got refunded on Steam. I have to commend Valve for making the procedure very painless and easy, even if they had to be forced (by Australia, if I remember correctly?) to offer refunds.

Oh pot? This is kettle...

For crying out loud, Larian, you guys are the last people eligible to lecture people on greed. What, are we supposed to think that you calling your D&D licensed Original Sin game 'Baldur's Gate 3' was anything but money-obsessed nostalgia bait to try and squeeze every last cent out of the poor fools dumb enough to trust you had even an iota of respectability? I'm sure that when Black Isle was finishing up Throne of Bhaal they were expecting, no, hoping that some jackass would come around 20 years later to shit out a steaming pile to ruin the masterpiece they spent so much time building up and refining into one of the greatest trilogies in video gaming history.

The nerve some people have, the gall, the temerity, it's unimaginable. What's next, is Jeff Bezos gonna go and lecture people on treating employees humanely and making sure they have decent working conditions? Don't get me wrong, I agree with the core message, but the hypocrisy is staggering.

Quoting: 14This is sarcastic, right? You don't get anything from a donation. It's not a trade.

Yes, it was a joke. I'm not actually gonna ask a refund on my donations just because Plasma 6 is the worst 'upgrade' since GNOME 3. And hey, I get it: they want new users so if they feel like they have to tell the old users to go fuck themselves so be it. It's fine, I just get irked when that happens.

I'm not a fan of the changes to System Settings, and having my panels suddenly be 'floating' when I logged in was very off-putting, and it sucks that I now have to wait until the window manager scripts I rely on are ported to Plasma 6, and when I tried the X11 session using Awesome as window manager plasma shell kept crashing when I tried to log out (which is pretty funny, but having to switch to a TTY and doing a full reboot did fix the Breeze SDDM theme, so that's nice),...

But at least it doesn't crash constantly like Plasma 5 did on release, so that's a positive I guess.

EDIT: And I now need to go and configure single-click to open... I'm halfway tempted to ask a refund for the money I donated.

I've been working out some builds in Neverwinter Nights 2, looking for a nice OP one which I can use to play through modules without having to get really bogged down in combat. Aside from that I've cleaned out some of my backlog: played through Along the Edge (it's fine), Primordia (it's fine), Shardlight (it's pretty good), and Technobabylon (truly amazing game, I'm so happy I played it, it's fantastic).
