That's whats awesome about the Steam Deck in comparison to something like the Switch. I have taken my Deck completely apart (because my screen broke), and all i needed were some standard tools. You can put whatever OS you want on it, you can play whatever you want with it, you can replace parts as you see fit - mine is currently waiting for the moment i have to open it up the next time, i got myself a completely transparent body for it.
That makes me think: is there a LED controller somewhere in the Steam Deck?
It especially cool that steam deck basically set the rules upon arrival:
- Being cheap (not anymore tho) β it was two to three times cheaper than competitives
- Providing best user experience with SteamOS β showing that UI matters on such devices
- Being serviceable β you can easily fix or at least replace components
It's not like they was first company to present x86 handheld, but they was first one who was able to take off. I bought asus rog ally year ago (with z1extreme) and I already swapped os, nvme and sticks in it, battery will be next, cause in this model it abysmally small. And I can bet if not for stream deck, even if asus would release rog ally, it would cost x2 and repairability would basically none existent. And chance are it would have problems with linux (like their rog ally xbox version)
I replaced the battery on mine already. Only problem was that damn glue you got to melt.
Yeah, i got myself the iFixit toolkit for the screen replacement, which comes with this nice heating pad you can warm up in the microwave to loosen the glue from both the screen and the battery. Still have it, it's now in my general toolkit, because there's always something glued down nowadays.
I used a heat gun, I was still afraid to over do it and blow up the battery. Other than that, easy fix with a knock off battery as the official ones were sold out.
Incoming mandatory closed source government ID software for the tracking device you carry in your pocket.
They literally already mooted that in the UK.
Thankfully.
For now..
We'll see how Palantir turns out.
"Mooted" means nearly the opposite in British English of what it does in American English. @DakRalter@thelemmy.club is saying they already started discussing it, which is a bad thing.
Those two standards don't make sense, I'll create a third one to fix all shortcomings!
Careful, if you continue that thought to its conclusion you're gonna end up with Esparanto or something.
There's worse. There's better as well though.
Cool, the fed can pay for it. Expect me to only turn it on when asked.
I don't own my pets :(
Also, are my kids even mine?
Unless you're in favor of slavery you don't own your kids.
You can definitely open them. Closing them again would be harderβ¦
not that difficult, but some functionality might be lost.
my girlfriend who loves me more than anyone in the world, turned my cat into a sandwich
At least she owns the cat now.
Well you don't own your kids, they own themselves.
