Also remember to check protondb before you buy a game in case you have a steam deck because the verification is often wrong. I refunded Horizon Zero Dawn because it runs terribly on the steam deck (frequent dips below 30fps) and had ridiculous input lag (like 250ms more than other games). That was when I learned about protondb. Also definitely read the texts instead of just looking at the rating, a lot of people seem to be fine with performance that's like PS4 cyberpunk.

It was already discovered that that was a big and game devs need to fix it manually for now.
We're lucky to have valve. They actually managed to make a console without the downsides of a console.
My OLED deck has arrived today, can't wait to use it.
If you're bad at a multiplayer game, you'll die a lot. That's just part of it. Any good game will give new players a way to fight good players (TF2 has the anti titan weapons for example).
Poorly designed games will punish bad players for being bad (like unavoidable COD killstreaks for example).
SBMM is just a band-aid for a problem that lies much deeper.
The solution is simple: Create lobbies by ping and then split the teams by skill. I think titanfall 2 does that, I've been playing for a long time and if I meet another veteran, they are usually on the other team.
Excel is a problem since it changes constantly and relies so much on the mouse. I'm a developer and struggle every time I'm forced to use it.
Search engines have also gotten terrible over the last few years so it's a pretty bad time to learn how to use a computer. Old videos from the 90s and 2000s are great to learn the basics, but unfortunately you can't really follow along.
Paid courses for the basics of MS office exist, maybe you'll be able to find one that starts from zero and teaches the basics of using a computer at all.
Ich finde die Überwachung durch Konzerne noch schlimmer als die durch den Staat. Der Staat ist immerhin in der Regel unfähig und träge, bei Konzernen wirst du á la Cambridge Analytica vollautomatisch durchmanipuliert.
My personal machines are all on linux already. But unfortunately my work laptop isn't and won't be unless I find a different job.
Mint gets rid of snaps, distros that don't are just bad imo.
Du kannst dir immer noch ein Smartphone kaufen und deine eigene Software draufspielen. Es gibt genug ROMs, mit denen man die Kontrolle über das eigene Gerät wieder zurückbekommt.
Warum nicht auch Kameras und KI in privaten Wohnungen, wenn wir schon dabei sind!? /s
Es gibt jetzt schon viele Leute, die sich eine Wanze ins Wohnzimmer stellen. Das wäre nur ein logischer nächster Schritt.
A linux PC would involve some amount of tinkering.
The steam deck is foolproof, a 6 year old can play games on it with no issues, so it's a console. The PC mode is just a nice extra.
