If I remember correctly Valve paid for this build system specifically for ARM support, so yeah I think that is going to happen.

They said all products will launched in all markets the Steam Deck currently ships in, and I believe their full list included Australia

Early leaks were pointing to a Alyx sequel, but I think the more recent leaks are pointing to it just being Half Life 3, which would presumably be playable on the Deck. Frame and the new Steam machine.

I mean I think better Linux SteamVR is a given since they are selling the new steam machine as an option for streaming to the Frame.

It is Deckard, from the looks of it won’t be as powerful as the steam deck but not because the ARM chip is slow. They said it is just because the effective TDP of the ARM chip (after subtracting all the work it is doing to track the headset and controllers and do the rendering) is like 7 watts, compared to the 15 watts of the steam deck. So you will probably still be able to run some of the more indie games on it. The translation later is also a 10-15% slow-down for CPU bound games, but they said should be negligible for GPU bound games.

I believe they mentioned that it is basically HDMI 2.1 but some features weren’t supported maybe 4:2:2 color, I don’t remember. I think they also mentioned they are working on fixing it so they can call it HDMI 2.1 but they aren’t sure if they can so they are just calling it 2.0 right now to be safe.

They actually already shipped that as a limited edition last year.
- Comment on Framework Laptop 16. Upgraded! 2 months ago:
This is actually the same GPU they already launched last year when they first launched the 16, this version just has improved cooling. The problem is since they launched the first AMD GPU module AMD has yet to launch any more mobile GPUs. 9000 series mobile has yet to be announced or launched, so they can’t really give a new upgraded AMD GPU until then.
- Comment on The Most Popular Window Air Conditioner Has Disappeared from Store Shelves [Aftermath] 5 months ago:
I have one of these and taking it apart to clean is a nightmare. It will get very moldy and there is no practical way to actually clean one of these, apparently the designers didn’t consider you might want to take it apart to clean it. So I have taken to spraying car AC cleaner into it like once a year. Ideally, you are supposed to clean out your Window AC once a year.
- Comment on Developer Creates Infinite Maze That Traps AI Training Bots 9 months ago:
I think part of this software at least in the description on the website is easy and reliable detection of LLM bots to block. You can run it and it will generate statistics about bots that get caught in it so you can easily block big lists of them.
- Comment on DeckSight: OLED mod for the LCD Steam Deck 10 months ago:
Don’t think they are lying about the denial, they said they wanted the upgrade to be big and the z2 is marginally better than what the Steam Deck already has. I would guess a Steam Deck 2 is years away, but we might get a Steam Home Console, or maybe the Deckard VR headset. I kinda doubt any of those would run a z2 though. Why would Valve be using an off the shelf chip when they had a custom chip last time?
- Comment on AYANEO 3 now officially announced with AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 and HDR OLED 11 months ago:
Yeah, this is the number one thing that keeps me from even considering the deck competitors.

I just set it so it never grabs focus and remembers its location. That was when I click to another tab the PiP window doesn’t take over focus from the browser.

A couple features in Arc I would like to see coome to this, but it runs on Linux so I am dailying it on my real computer. So far it has been great and a couple KDE tweaks even made PiP work fantastic.

This is not even true, they rewrote the engine to support native 64-bit precision to let them fit large spaces, they didn’t just make everything small. They basically employ all the people that used to make Cryengine since Crytek went out of business, so the engine they are building is actually pretty good.
