  • What Did Y'all Buy on Black Friday?

    Jump

  • Local store had 20% off video games, which isn't up to par with past Black Fridays, but eh, meh.

    One cheap Christmas present and what will likely be my last Xbox game. (Halo Infinite, bookending Halo as my first Xbox game).

  • Do you think standard batteries like A, AA, AAA, C, and D, 9V etc will eventually become obsolete?

    Jump

  • These standard AA rechargeables are 2500, from what other users are saying about losing capacity for the charging circuit, seems accurate:

  • How does trash collection/recycling work where you live, and do you like the system?

    Jump

  • Three bins, Trash, Recycling, Yard Debris.

    Recycling and Yard get picked up every week.

    Trash is every other week.

    Frankly, I wish trash was weekly too!

  • If the Pilgrims were still alive today, what would they be known for?

    Jump

  • What would Elvis say if he were alive today?

    "Hey! Hey! Let me out of here!"

  • Valve has plans for a travel case that charges your Steam Deck, leak reveals

    Jump

  • I'd think, at least for the existing Steam Decks, it would involve some kind of internal modification as well since they don't do charging like this.

  • Why are the you are the problem comments so common on Lemmy?

    Jump

  • I dunno, I used to see that all the time on reddit, generally in response to posts that all started with "I'm 18 and..."

  • if you believe that aliens are real and have or are visiting earth, what do you hope to see happen if the government or science confirms that?

    Jump

  • I'm not arrogant enough to think we are the only intelligent life out there, but at the same time, Earth is kind of at the ass end of space, so I also can't believe that any species capable of getting all the way out here would find anything remotely interesting here.

  • What's your favourite story from history that is actually false or exaggerated?

    Jump

  • So many apocryphal stories are just the best...

    At a dinner party, someone accused Winston Churchill of being drunk.

    "That may be, madam, but you're ugly, and I'll be sober in the morning."

    Likely never happened.

    But the one that breaks my heart is that there is no evidence Carthage was salted after being destroyed.

  • How much of your interest in something is subtly based on esthetics?

    Jump

  • Oh, it's not subtle. Certain things make me go "Oooooh!"

  • What's really at the bottom of Trump trying to do a peace deal?

    Jump

  • What's really at the bottom of Trump trying to do a peace deal?

    Jump

  • He fears death and wants to get into heaven.

  • What game or platform has the best character creation setting?

    Jump

  • I really enjoyed the character creator in Sunset Overdrive, it's too bad the actual game was garbage.

  • Steam Machine – Powerful Enough?

    Jump

  • Well, from the Steam Deck tech specs page:

    Processor

    6 nm AMD APU

    CPU: Zen 2 4c/8t, 2.4-3.5GHz (up to 448 GFlops FP32)

    GPU: 8 RDNA 2 CUs, 1.6GHz (1.6 TFlops FP32) APU power: 4-15W

    RAM 16 GB LPDDR5 on-board RAM (6400 MT/s quad 32-bit channels)

    Then what we know about the Steam Machine, also from the tech specs page:

    CPU Semi-custom AMD Zen 4 6C / 12T up to 4.8 GHz, 30W TDP

    GPU Semi-Custom AMD RDNA3 28CUs 2.45GHz max sustained clock, 110W TDP

    RAM 16GB DDR5 + 8GB GDDR6 VRAM

  • Steam Machine – Powerful Enough?

    Jump

  • Steam Machine – Powerful Enough?

    Jump

  • I can see unplugging the Raspberry Pi in the bedroom and replacing it with the Steam Machine.

  • Steam Machine – Powerful Enough?

    Jump

  • I mean, I find my Steam Deck powerful enough and this is, what, 6x over the Steam Deck?

  • Removed

    Why are my Insurance premiums go up more for just adding a spouse than they would if I added children.

    Jump

  • Interesting too that adding a spouse is 2x your own insurance.

    Take the "entire famlly" rate and subtract the "you+children" rate. $56.27 for just the spouse.

  • Guild Wars Reforged announced to release in December and will be Steam Deck Verified

    Jump

  • I could deal with the text size, but the controller mapping was a pain.
