Cool story bro
Hehe bro, you know what? The Steam Deck OLED is still the best when it comes to price, screen quality, size, and overall optimization.

Is it okay to keep it plugged/docked permanently ? (Soft limiting battery charge to 95% / second hand / battery health at 93%)
I’ll add on to this that Steam Deck uses power passthrough that bypasses the battery entirely. This means that you aren’t constantly wearing down the biggest fail point of these devices. If you are someone that charges to 80-100% and then unnecessarily unplugs it, you are essentially reducing the li

2003 Edition Steam Controller concept mockup
I'd love this as a special edition. Though I feel we're going to get something akin to what the Steam Deck did with the OLED Special Edition.

Two amazing deals - which one do I keep?
I think from a repairability long-term outlook you'll probably be able to service the Steam Deck better if you want to get new thumbsticks, or need to replace bumpers or the SSD, or the battery, you can easily source those parts from iFixit down the line. Even if you crack the display you can buy on

Steam Deck at Costco in Mexico
I've seen the ROG Ally at Sam's Club several times so it's funny that Costco gets the Steam Deck Oled

Valve has developed kernel patches and user-space tools (like dmemcg-booster and plasma-foreground-booster) to prioritize VRAM for foreground games on low-VRAM Linux systems (e.g. 8GB cards), enabling smoother Vulkan/RADV gameplay such as Cyberpunk 2077
Just recently, the steam deck's custom scheduler was deployed by meta to their data center workloads. Valve really is improving linux for everyone.

Is Decky bad or something?
It's not bad, it's just that it's outside software, so you have to expect it to sometimes conflict with what Valve updates. I've personally noticed that my Deck sometimes doesn't fully shut down when I tell it to, so I have to hold the power button, and it's more than likely Decky (or a Decky plug-i

Brad Lynch: "I’ve been told some Valve Internal pricing targets they had before AND after RAM crisis, Steam Machine is affected the most whilst Steam Frame not so much"
I own the original Steam controller, a Steam Deck and love Steam as a gaming platform but without a heavily subsidised price the Steam Machine is a complete waste. The moment they announced Steam Machine's specs but said it will "enable 4k @ 60fps" while showing demanding titles on screen I was scep

Our game got Steam Deck Verified, but that won't be it. What do you expect from Verified games?
I’m so happy to see a developer engage with the community on Reddit. I really enjoyed the first game. My Steam Deck (OLED) wishlist: runs at 45fps consistently; can cope at 12w tdp or lower (though I get that might be asking a lot of a new game); adjustable font size/UI for accessibility; finally, p
