Don’t worry, rule34 has covered that very thoroughly. Both of your questions actually.

I’ll take a wonderful experience over a repetitive “make rank number go up” game any day of the week.

Don’t get me wrong, I played all the online multiplayer stuff, many MMOs, all the FPS games, RTS, you name it. But even in those universes I preferred something like Left 4 Dead over something like Counter Strike. At least with a co-op game like L4D the gameplay was more interesting and felt more immersive. CS, Overwatch, even good old Quake in multiplayer mode just felt so repetitive that I got tired of them after 15 minutes of “get flag, kill enemy, twitch around the map like a hyena on meth”

An old single player rpg with a great story was always going to capture my interest more than those online games. An MMORPG is more like an MMO and less like an RPG. And for games with less of a story to tell, a great platformer or adventure game where there was actual progression and new mechanics/challenges to discover level by level, was just more engaging than running Dust 2 a hundred times a night.

Now a days with games like Witcher 3, BG3, Cyberpunk, Hades, and the like, I just can’t bring myself to plug into those perpetually repetitive online experiences. Especially when if I do want to do some multiplayer, a game like BG3 has a wonderful implementation of it. Something like that is the kind of multiplayer I can get down with.

And also, plenty of others have said it already but I’m old and I got shit to do man. I can’t be gaming on someone else’s clock. Steam Deck has really helped get me back into gaming through. That thing has been a godsend. Knock out a chapter in Justice before I go to bed, it’s like reading a bit of a good book before bedtime. Love it.

Justice is great by the way if you like the Yakuza series but want something a little less goofy. Same studio.

Hell yeah. Another vote for Seal!

Tell that to 2FA apps for banks and enterprise security systems.

And thankfully, they just released a teaser for a new one so I guess my wish is going to be granted!

Cyberpunk chainmail breastplate

Pretty much the worse “console” ever made. Any video on it will tell you all you need to know. I wouldn’t buy it for a penny today if someone offered.

OUYA

The entry on Marijuana is absolutely wild.

This is something that some people read and genuinely believe whole. This is 10,000% propaganda. Just unbelievable.

The general public still doesn’t seem to grasp the current capabilities of AI. It’s still just mimicry. AI is a parrot that “learns” something and repeats it to the best of it’s ability, but it doesn’t understand the thing it learned. You can teach a bird to say “Polly want a cracker” but it doesn’t know what a cracker is, and while it does have wants like any other animal, it doesn’t know what “want a cracker” actually means.

ML models get a billion images of mushrooms and then “learn” what “mushroom” looks like, but even if the images of mushrooms are properly labeled poisonous and not poisonous, it doesn’t really know that in the same way humans do. And it gets even worse when the AI tries to make new things from those sets it’s trained off, which all of those certainly do. Making new mushrooms that don’t exist, how can it tell which one of these new fantasy mushrooms are poison and which ones aren’t? It can’t know, but it sure as hell can make it up.

Hell, most AI can’t even get text right.

Don’t trust AI for anything that isn’t hard coded math, or systems that reference and directly quote known good sources without doing any kind of creative embellishments.

I marked some games as private and they indeed do NOT show up on the other families users library. Seems to work like a charm!

You can mark a game as private and it won’t show to the other family members. I verified this just now after signing up for the beta and setting up an account for my spouse. The games I marked private don’t show up on their families library.

Even the original LCD deck was easily eligible for this little list but the OLED went above and beyond in every way. I have a beefy PC for desktop gaming but I still prefer to play on the deck OLED because it’s just an amazing experience.

• Steam Deck OLED
• Battery powered lawn mower (eGo)

Edit: I am dumb, of course the source code is out there. I have visited this repository a thousand times but my monkey brain can’t remember what I ate for breakfast.

Everyone download the hell out of it and never let this die.

If it isn’t already open source, Yuzu team needs to get that shiz open source post-haste. Let’s get that code absolutely everywhere.

When that popular manga app Tachiyomi got legal bonked, the bajillion forks of it kept some semblance of the original going.

I know there’s money to be made and something like an emulator is considerably more complex than a book reading app/scraper, but it would at least give the project a chance of not dying forever.

If you send me this (I pm’ed ya) I will be happy to keep this torch aflame as well.

It does. I’ve tested it with both versions (I have OLED my brother has my old LCD) and I’ve tested it on two PCs and a Mac. Works great on all of them.

Just got this one and it’s TINY. I have the other one that the guy above posted and I needed a second one so I got this because sale. If you don’t need external SD card support then this one is great.

They are both great by the way but this one again, is super dupes portable.

Edit: yeah no Ethernet but I don’t need that when traveling because I’m usually not in a situation where there even is one available.
