You don't have to be white to be racist or a redneck. Go to places like Fresno or Victorville and you'll meet plenty of both. A huge proportion of Hispanics regularly vote against their own interests in California

TBH I never remember which is Tom and which is Jerry lol. Also...I mean we are old man, sorry. 😞

I also feel like people forget how fucking enormous California is. It's really just a few big liberal areas separated by a giant wasteland of racist rednecks that spans nearly the entirety of the United States from north to South in between. It's huge. If you start in San Diego and drive north for 12 hours you'll be....almost to the top of California. If you do that on the East coast you can drive through nine states.

Yeah but to be accurate you should include a baby version of the cat and have the gun barrels aimed at him instead.

Never heard this band before... definitely did not expect that scream/growl to come from that frame. God damn!

I have never seen a laundromat romanticized in a movie as far as I can recall.

Natural habitats for the uninitiated! Absolutely wonderful little web series. I first discovered them through Lemmy and I have binged the entire catalogue several times. Here are some faves:

1. Mouth

2. Blue Prints

3. Fast fHOOD

They are also on IG!

Because I don't need or want it to do any of that, nor do most people that purchase a console. I want it to be a steam-friendly PS5 replacement, and serve the exact role that a console serves. A steam-friendly replacement would have the same OS features that deck has, and allow a similar degree of customization. You are not the use case if you don't understand that.

It's literally not, that's steam running in big picture on an inconvenient setup. No controller wake up, no rest mode, stuck with windows, no convenient app switching, need mouse/kb to do anything outside of steam. Source: have gaming PC that I never use.

Steam machines were a great idea that the market wasn't quite ready for, and were too niche at the time. The steam deck has proved people of all technical levels are ready and willing to embrace a non-windows OS, and don't care what it is as long as it can easily give them access to their content. I have an Nvidia shield, a PS5, a steam deck and a desktop PC. My game library is disjointed and I rarely play anything on the PC, because there is no good way to make it convenient. The vast majority of the time I use my steam deck, I'm sitting on my couch, just like my PS5 .

A steam console could unify everything, cut my devices while simplifying my experience and giving me way more control over the invasive bullshit that comes with streaming and android devices. That has so much upside and value to me, it's hard to even put a price tag on it tbh.

Yes I am that people. A gaming console media PC that sits still, has rest mode, and can interface with a server for my media, or run streaming apps like a regular ass PC but from the convenience of my couch. Like basically - my steam deck with a hardware upgrade at the expense of portability. That's exactly what I want and I would happily pay for. Even at $700+, that value is there for me and I imagine for tons of others.

I honestly think (hope) valve should take a shot at a genuine console. I would absolutely love something that just WORKS like steam deck, but unlike my PS5 syncs with my steam library and can easily transition to my deck with no fuss. Library compatibility, graphic customization, capable of functioning as a one stop media device for the TV room. I feel like the steam machines were too early and too short sighted/compartmentalized, but now that so many games are coming to PC, valve could take everything the PlayStation 5 did right, while removing all the bullshit that drives people nuts.
