Before anyone overreacts:

The physical footprint of the recalls in the United States of America is limited to eight Kias and six Hyundais

14 cars total in the US.

My go-to’s, with no real rhyme or reason…

Nightride FM - Chillsynth Venice Classical Radio Lofi 24/7 Soma.fm Groove Salad and Drone Zone

Groove Salad for me. Unless I’m updating production severs then I put on Drone Zone to lower my heart rate.

XBOX, the everything app!

Was wondering the same thing while I built mine over the last few weeks. I watched a ton of videos, but many are out of date on the software side. I mostly used the site that Quantumantics@fedia.io linked to, which seems to cover most everything. e.g. you no longer need to flash the BIOS if all you want is dynamic memory allocation, there’s a userland utility now.

I printed my case, but there are some available for purchase on eBay and Etsy. Some 3D printing sites let you request models be printed to your specs.

Anyway, I’m happy with the build and the performance, but… This thing is loud, and given the limitations with power options (no sleep mode?) I’m still trying to figure out how to integrate it. If I could reliably power on and off remotely, I could stash it somewhere and use Steam Remote Play. But I’ve not had much luck yet.

I managed to get mine for $150 USD shipped. $40 for PSU (provably overkill), $50 for fans and other miscellaneous parts, and about $25 for filament (with some leftovers). That’s under $300.

Yes I found this much more useful and up-to-date than the one linked above.

I trust you’re checking Is There Any Deal… Pragmata has had pretty consistent $10 off from other Steam key stores, including Fanatical right now.

You’re assuming there is an author…

Did this on Steam Deck. Holy shit 100GB download just to start the game followed by another 16GB download once logged in + glacial “verifying integrity” progress bar…

Enjoying the menu theme music though :)

Don’t announce a price and see every single comment section devolve into pricing discourse.

Before the comments just become another pricing argument, I want to say I’m still hyped. These look like really cool products.

I think anyone with a fairly basic understanding of economics (and that is admittedly a declining number in many places) understands the idea that “salaries and benefits are expensive”.

What he doesn’t explain that would actually be helpful is why teams are so big. Like what are all the departments that work on AAA titles, what do they do, how many people on staff relative to other departments, what does a 3D modeler make vs. a gameplay programmer?

He also doesn’t talk about anything outside of staffing, like marketing, cinematics, voice acting, localization, bribing Geoff Keighley…

This would all be more useful than the baby math lesson provided.

I saw some info on a recent road trip where it would say a trip “uses 54%”. Except that it was wildy pessimistic, by double digits, every time. Unless it adjusts based on your input, I would struggle to find this useful.
