  The problem is that Steam Game Mode has spotty support for Nvidia GPU’s, hence why I recommended against booting into it directly

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SteamOS on my gaming PC?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Exasperated Sigh

  I understand the frustration, but this isn’t helpful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SteamOS on my gaming PC?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I have good news and bad news.

  Bad news is that Steam OS doesn’t work well with Nvidia GPU’s due to how optimized it currently is for handheld APU’s

  Good news is that Bazzite is effectively the same OS and has an install option that includes Nvidia GPU drivers.

  If you’re up for installing Bazzite, I recommend picking the dropdown to not boot into Steam Gaming Mode. Every other choice should be rather straightforward. After that, make a bootable flashdrive and put the installer on there.

  As for your GOG games, like others said you can use Heroic Games Launcher to run them, alongside games from EGS, EA, Itch.io, etc.

  The hell does “piracy against big companies” even mean?

  Paying for indies while pirating AAA isn’t that hard of a concept to wrap your head around. Sounds more like a “you” problem

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I finally decided to go full piracy against big companies⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m planning on yo-ho’ing CP2077, but no way an I paying even if I enjoy it. CDPR has fucked me over enough with The Witcher trilogy that they owe me a free game to make up for the time and money wasted.

  After that, I might be willing to give them money again for something else, but I’m not paying for Cyberpunk

  I originally read your comment as “AHEM” due to the typo

  It’s not hard to figure out that the cross-stitcher really cares about annoying religious people

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I finally decided to go full piracy against big companies⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Supergiant Games took a payout to make Hades a times exclusive for EGS. They still have some anti-consumer practices, even if you personally don’t think it’s as bad.

  You don’t seem to understand the concept of “mockery”

  Huh? Just get an old Dell optiplex tower on Ebay or Craigslist and install Batocera on it. It’d probably cost a similar amount

  Reeks of old, greedy executive BS. So short-sighted in terms of both profitability and goodwill.

  TBH, this seems like most Japanese companies in a nutshell

  Pretty sure these are reversed

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Opinions on Jurassic Park as a Zoo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  (pretty much all of his books are good).

  There’s a couple of caveats. One of his books denies climate change is a thing, but still has “sources” at the b9tt9m of pages to look real. And then there’s Next, which is… a piece of work.

  I think those were Crichton’s last 2 books too, so I think he may have been scraping the bottom of the barrel for ideas right before he died

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon gets rid of drop box⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So far it’s working fine, yeah. No need to choose among a zillion distros someone swears is the best

  Nowadays most people just recommend Bazzite if you just want to game

  PocketPair announced Palfarm^[Which I hope is a real game and not just an out of season April 1st like More than Just Pals],

  Except More Than Just Pals is actually being developed

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been playing Monster Sanctuary. It’s a Metroidvania Creature Collector that works surprisingly well.

  I’m trying to get through the game before picking up Aethermancer, with is a Roguelike Creature Collector made by the same dev, and it launched a couple of weeks ago

  Who?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨yeah everything is probably made of like, idk, earth water, fire and air or something idrk⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope, denser objects fall faster than less dense ones (through the air).

  Technically it’s objects with a higher mass-to-drag ratio, but most of the time it’s close enough

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Deck plugin adds AMD FSR4 support to improve visuals⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also… if you are installing a plugin from a file, into Decky… you would have had to already download that file… and I am pretty sure, you’d have to that in desktop mode.

  DeckyLoader has a list of repo’s you can download from within game mod. DeckyFrameGen has been in there all day.

  … Are you really just annoyed that there is not one single, total set of instructions for you to follow?

  No, I’m annoyed that the “guides” are telling people to go through a pointlessly overcomplicated process to install the plugin

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Deck plugin adds AMD FSR4 support to improve visuals⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because there is no way to install Decky from the game view/mode itself.

  This is not what I was referring to. None of the guides actually go through the DeckLoader install process, they generally just link back to a previous guide on how to do that.

  And if you already have DeckyLoader installed, you can just install DeckyLoadGen from within the DeckyLoader menu in game mode. I’m pointing out that it’s silly to go into desktop mode to do a manual install when it’s literally just 2 clicks inside DeckyLoader
