I got a good deal for their older Pro 2 model last year and yeah it’s pretty good for the price honestly. Linux functionality is a bit dodgy though. Like, it kinda works but I need to set it up regularly for some reason. Switch mode is only partially supported and I can’t get the back buttons to work whatsoever on any mode. I switched to the Sony DualSense for most things but I’m willing to pay a premium price for the Steam Controller.

Back to your point though: Yes, there are good alternatives. Especially if you’re looking for something specialized like N64 emulation. 8BitDo got it for you. But man the Steam Controller seemss neat.

Can’t talk for Vader but 8BitDo’s repairability is going downhill while prices go up. Just based on repariability I would trust this Steam controller to outlive anything else at the moment.

It’s a no-brainer, really. All Steam Decks have been out of stock for literal months here in Europe. It’s clear they can’t deliver much more at the moment given the current hardware prices. Might as well develop something beefier before putting even more overpriced RAM and storage space into the old Steam Deck for much longer. It will be years until the Steam Deck 2 will release anyway.

We knew how bad the situation was economically but we also knew sanctions would have a much delayed effect. Economists have explained that plenty back when it seemed sanctions wouldn’t do much at first. As far as I’m aware, Russia transformed into a full on war economy since. That delayed things even further but it will make the fallout even worse for the country. Putin really doesn’t care if Russia even still exists when he goes down.

Jailed by ICE

Kidnapped by fascist terrorists.

Let me guess he doesn’t like Republicans because of their racism against himself specifically but he’s totally down to hating other minorities all the same.

Newsflash: Queer rights are human rights, smart ass! We’re in this together. Well, not you. You can eat shit, Dave.

On one hand this is an elegant solution that is already in use in Germany for years, if companies want to implement it that is. But I think only Sony’s Playstore uses it. Or so I have heard. No US company wants to use it and I am sure they will lobby to get more data from users than a token if this gets rolled out EU wide. I am skeptical about this.

I’m the last person to defend China but this is just moronic on so many levels. China has been hording oil for a long time and it wasn’t an issue before. But now that the US started an absolutely senseless and ridiculously stupid war in the most incompetent way imaginable they demand stability? Yeah right. Shut up.

Even supervised driving should only be legal if the remote driver resides in the same country with a legit drivers license and a taxi license. It’s outlandish how “self-driving” cars rely on drivers from a different continent with no proof of proficiency.

And it almost makes sense for the Netherlands. Almost. They have amazing infrastructure. Their world class cycling lanes are pretty much disconnected from roads for the most part and even their highways are very decently lit at night. Then again, allowing Teslas to self drive isn’t the kind of mindset that got them there in the first place and I won’t be surprised when Teslas still fail under these stellar conditions.

Called it and this is just the beginning. There won’t be done anything meaningful about it in most countries either.

Not the best… outlook.

The Apollo 13 movie sequel will be wild…

Also swap out your PSP batteries regardless because they will almost certainly bloat! Mine ruined my handheld because I didn’t notice it.

De Pindakaaswinkel in the Netherlands has some wild flavors, including stoopwafel and fried onions.

There’s peanut butter with chili, fried onions, chocolate and… well I suppose you could just add those ingredients yourself now that I think about it.

They claimed it was all AI but I’ve heard that’s actually not true and many people had to work on each frame because AI simply didn’t do that good of a job.

Ja, bei parasozialen Beziehungen muss man höllisch aufpassen. Ich weiß es ist Teil der Streamer Kultur und das gilt vermutlich doppelt für Vtuber, aber das sind weder deine Freunde, noch deine Partner.

I tried to listen to it but the doublethink in his narrative is too distracting. What a monumental loser.

It should also be their right to do so.
