They can’t have folding prongs because their power adapters are all the size of British footballs.

The good thing about Steam Deck is that it mostly just works. Now I have to learn about integer scaling and SUPER RESOLUTION

I got a 1tb drive installed and I'm about 150gb away from being full, but I also have a bunch of bullshit I will probably never play on there that I could remove if I wanted to. That being said, one of the reasons I deleted Atomic Heart was that with DLC, it clocks in at about 90gb (the other being that it devours battery), and I have been thinking about getting a cheap M2 - USB adapter and cloning my drive to a new 2tb one.

Are there any recommended discord clients for the deck? I looked on the discover store thing and all of them seem to suck judging by reviews. Would be neat to have discord on this thing.

The official client? Comes in a tar though. Edit: oh, it's actually in Discover, just do that. It works fine. Squiggle fucked around with this message at 14:21 on Apr 27, 2024 |

Would be neat to have discord on this thing. You can install it and add it as a non steam app, and run it in the background but it's not really a seamless experience to jump between discord and your game. There's a decky plugin that lets discord see and display what game you're playing, which it otherwise won't do. Though to be fair decky has been a wreck for me recently, maybe because I'm on the beta client or something, but it keeps breaking so right now I have no plugins installed because I got tired of getting a parade of error messages for every single plugin

Decky is awesome when it works but I found it too unreliable. Some really great plugins on there, I'm especially fond of the protondb badges

I’ve had one decker plugin break in a year and that was the how long to beat plugin, so not exactly vital functionary. Stay on stabile both in steamOS and decky

That's fair. I don't really know why I'm on the beta os branch anyway, I think I swapped at one point when the beta branch had a new feature I didn't want to wait for and never bothered to switch it back

You used to have to reinstall decky after any os update it seemed like. It was very annoying. It hasn't done that in some time though to be fair and seems pretty stable at this point.

If you're going to be using Discord for voice chat like I do, you'll really benefit from the volume mixer plugin for Decky. Seriously, it's incredible. It remembers your volume setting, and let me tell you, it's WAY easier to just turn a game or app's volume up or down altogether, rather than mess with every single in-game slider. By default, game volume tends to drown out discord voice chat.

Would be neat to have discord on this thing. The official client is good but you might want to look into Vencord/Vesktop. Default discord client does not have an implementation of their audio backend for Linux, which results in you being able to stream applications over Discord calls, but not the application audio (so like e.g. when streaming a game it means they don't get to hear your game). Vesktop solves this problem discretely, also has themeing options and Plugins.

Just be careful that Vesktop is, strictly speaking, not condoned via the discord ToS. At the same time I don't think anyone's been banned about it, and it's kind of on Discord for not having a good Linux client

update on my annoying 'deck won't boot' issue I got it to boot... by connecting it to a tv (???) but as soon as I disconnect it, the screen stops working again so either the screen died or there's still something hosed that I need to change somewhere guess I can try a factory reset next

I would recommend booting it with the TV, going to the desktop mode and checking the battery health. I've heard cases where letting the deck run out of juice has messed the calibration, making it display much worse battery health percentage than how it really is.
