Quoting: denyasisCool, I'll be working then. I guess I could put it on in the background on my phone? As long as it doesn't require you to respond or anything if your name is called...

If it's anything like the Steam Deck reservation mails, you'll need to respond in 30 seconds.
On vacation (Deck reservation) or toilet (stream)? Bad luck...!

Quoting: Madjo5PM PST / 1AM UTC

What is that in GMT? (don't forget about your European brethren and sistren)

UTC is the same time as GMT.

I'm sure there's a huge astronomical difference, but counted by the hour, that's true... :)

Quoting: Purple Library GuySo how do you explain the fact that some developers are, in fact, creating Linux native builds, some of them specifically referring to the Steam Deck when they do so?

I don't know. :D

But... how many developers have not made a native version, or even stopped a habit of making native versions, be it due to Proton or not?
The real answer is: We don't know.
It's not like many of them are open about reasons why they don't support Linux.
What we do know is that Proton didn't give native Linux gaming a push in years.
If Steam Deck will? Well, let's see. I'm not betting on it for sure.

Quoting: benmhallI dropped my Steam Deck coming out of the car twice. On the second drop, I bought a case.

I am impressed with the durability of the Deck, though. Both times one corner needed to be pressed back together again, but no permanent damage beyond a minor scuff or two.

My current case is OK. It has a kickstand, which I like and use.

Did you have it in its original case?

It was in the original case but the case wasn't zipped closed. Totally my fault.

I was sure about that. ;)
(I also already forgot to zip, luckily only and home at nothing has happened.)

What I was aiming at...
Is the new case solving the problem you had that day?

Unfortunately your region is not eligible for registration in the giveaway, but you can still claim the Steam Pal digital sticker.

At least I got a sticker I will never use.......

Is it yet another sticker I can never get rid of again?
I hate those!
Want my pocket clean (as clean as it gets)!

This is getting out of hand, kinda.

I stopped buying cases years ago and all I've done is save money.

Quoting: KelvinhboThe Steam Deck is awesome, but giving it an award against those other ridiculous candidates is laughable at best.

Which hardware from 2022 should they have included?
