  • What are some niche things can could do/install/play on the steam deck that most people wouldn’t really do or think about doing?

    I will say that the support for some of these “less used” games is very difficult to get running for someone who hasn’t used Linux before and controls will be tough depending on the game.
    Getting OSRS with runelite was difficult but nice once i got it working. You need to get Wine to run the Jagex launcher then install Runelite separately. Don’t ask me how as I hardly remember how I did it myself lol

    Also I haven’t tried this but getting Flash games would be dope. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone try it yet, but I’m sure someone has.

    Also anybody know any casual games can play randomly on public transit and don’t have to sit down and play.

    Celeste, Doom 1993, webfishing single player.
    However the ‘sleep’ feature means most games work well portably, you don’t really need a special game (but still get Celeste it’s awesome!) just playing the games you own already will be MORE than enough.





  • I can understand (though not agree) with banning clear advocation for violence of CEOs, but the “I haven’t had a reason to smile this much in a while” message that got the user banned was too far.

    We will still consider suggestions of jury nullification for crimes that have not (yet) happened as advocation for violence

    I see jury nullification as similar to self defense, just at a larger scale. I take this message as “You’re not allowed to talk about defending yourself for future occasions, only ones that have already happened.”
    I guess talking about owning a gun for self defense can be seen as “advocating for violence” but that’s a narrow minded view, where nullification is only used when the ethics are on the greater good, like thousands of deaths vs the one.








  • So it detects if there’s a single folder inside the zip containing all the files or all the files directly inside the zip? That’s useful!

    Reminds me of Minecraft texture packs back in the day where nobody really understand how to make a texture pack and all used Ms paint and this was a common issue as clicking “add to .zip” on the folder would make a containing folder and not work. This would mean each user would have to extract it and have folders in their resource pack folder instead of zips.
    This… worked, but when the client(basically a large QOL mod) ~50% of people used added the ability to put texture packs in folders to organize them it treated the unzipped packs like a folder so they stopped working.
