Can you say why you do that? It’s it because you can play with better quality settings because you offload the work to your pc?








I had the same question, went work the deck and never looked back, it’s all you need






disable wake on bluetooth?
When I turn on my headphones, my oled deck turns on. Neat, but unwanted when I'm using my headphones for other things, like my zoom meeting for work causing Dave the Diver sounds to come out of my headphones. How can I turn that off without disabling Bluetooth every time I put the deck to sleep?

Baldurs Gate 3 settings for OLED deck?
Now that I have my new Oled, I'm wondering what would be good video settings for BG3. I can set the preset to ultra and it seems to offer no performance problem, but I wonder if vsync fsr2 etc should be set? How can I get the most amazing BG3 setup?

Got mine just now. Amazing smooth experience. Moved SD card over, did some updates and just resume playing, could not be more butter


Someone bought it for 279, so not too high!


Wow, this is one of the reasons I went for the new deck, the wifi and Bluetooth were not great


I priced it at $265, if you look at recently sold prices, 279$ is what others have been paying


Selling my deck
I've been trying to sell my deck (64gb, like new, only 3 months old) for a couple weeks now. Marketplace, Swappa, OfferUp... But I get zero bites. It's in excellent condition, with screen protector and no controller drift and I've priced it lower than others I've seen sell. I have pictures of all sides, with it on and showing a game. I'm wondering what I need to do to sell it, what am I missing? I want to get the new deck, but unload this one first, it's more than $100 cheaper than I got it for which means way less than the new decks are going for. Any suggestions? Or is nobody buying used decks now?

How do I use this? Set anti aliasing in the deck settings and then fsr2 in BG3?


Now I want to sell my gently used deck for one of these




starwars squadrons?
I had this on my wish list from ages ago, it's on sale for $3.99 now, which is super cheap but I'm not sure if it will work on the deck, or if the game is even worth my time. I've already got five other games in the pipe, but if this is really excellent and works well on the deck then I might get it. Thanks for any insight

I wouldn’t wait. There just was a sale, and so you will have to wait a while


I don’t want oled, I don’t want 4k. I would like better wifi, lighter, and better graphics capabilities. I can feel the blood returning to my hands when I set the deck down.



If I got it outside of steam, can I transfer that to stream?


The difference is who pays the markup. Amazon charges that to the seller, and passes that “discount” to the buyer effectively locking in buyers because nobody else can afford to compete


I’ve tried btrfs twice, and both times I regretted it. I also regret XFS, and reiserfs, but I had to do that because ext2 could just not deal with the very large, deep and multitudinous number of files I had to manage. Oh and jfs, also regret.


This is what bothers me about Mozilla. They position themselves in the privacy space, but thus far their efforts there have not been shown in their actual browser, and only in what I would call clever “green washing” or “privacy washing”. That is why things like Mullvad browser have a market, because the people who actually care about privacy and have spent time to look at what Firefox actually provides in that respect, are not particularly impressed with their “privacy” stance being realized in their product. While I applaud Mozilla for putting this article out there, as it is beneficial to raise awareness about this issue, I wish they would put as much effort into the actual privacy of Firefox as they do in their marketing around it.



Wow ok, game changer literally! Was I supposed to get that info from somewhere and I missed it?


Oh I tend to avoid youtube tutorials because they are too long, include ads, and a lot of inane banter. Listening at 2x speed is the only way and then its still annoying, but thanks, i’ll go there!


Baldur’s Gate 3 settings
Hi folks, I'm looking for a current, and good, Steam Deck guide for BG3 settings. I've read a number of people saying they have great performance and quality and they applied settings from a guide, but I've failed to find such a guide. I did find some old settings from pre-launch, but no "guide" per-se. The Diablo 4 guides were all over the place and easily found, but I am flummoxed why I can't find them for BG3.

I can if I use a browser and solve the cloud flare capt ha, but not if I use sync behind tor



Do I need to install it as an external, with GOG or something? Or can it come straight from steam?


Id love to get my wife to see how the steam deck is fun, instead of giving me crap for spending time on it. She doesn’t play games, and I suspect something like overcooked which gets hectic fast would just be frustrating for her, but really slow games would also lose her interest…




Firewatch blank screen on launch
I just bought Firewatch, always wanted to play it and the sale price was really good. It's also rated as confirmed on steamdeck, but it won't launch for me. Does it work for others? Any idea of what I can do, or support I can get for it? Or should I just request a refund and be sad?
