3·7 days agoInteresting. I haven’t found it, but I did just spot the pinned comment in under the Gamers Nexus video: “TEAR-DOWN coming up next!” So I guess I’ll just wait for that :)
Has anyone made a Steam Machine teardown video? I wanna see how this thing is built. All I’ve seen is that there’s a bunch of hardware basically clipping through a giant heatsink. Has anyone disassembled it further than that in a video?
I know the RAM is technically upgradeable, has any video shown how to access it?
(I did watch the whole GN video but I wasn’t paying full attention so maybe they showed it and I missed it)
They still might. After the buyers are selected in the raffle, they might have the chance to state a preference before the order is finalized.

3·9 days ago… what?
16·12 days agoIs there anything I’m missing here? There’s no joke or twist or anything. Is it just world building? (Admittedly I haven’t paid too much attention to your previous Addams Family posts so maybe this is just how they always are)
Help out a Deck newbie. I’m on the beta channel, so:
- Is the new update just a copy of the last update to the beta channel?
- If not (e.g. there are some bug fixes or tweaks for the proper release), then do I get the update as part of the beta channel? Or should I switch to the stable channel?
No, you’re 100% right. The only reason it’s this way is this: https://pikuma.com/blog/origins-of-vim-text-editor
These literally were the arrow keys on the machine that vim was originally developed on.
No, they meant that literally https://esolangs.org/wiki/I_use_Arch_btw
Oh, I see, you’re essentially saying that the picture should have had the keyboard upside down to complete the joke. Gotcha.
(FWIW I didn’t downvote)
Genuinely can’t tell if you’re missing the joke or you’re just committed to playing the straight man.
I’m actually disappointed this isn’t a real package. https://archlinux.org/packages/?q=btw
Linux newbies shouldn’t use Arch imho
Uhh but it’s clearly not though?
I forgot to mention. Turns out PWAsForFirefox doesn’t work at all with the Flatpak version of Firefox https://github.com/filips123/PWAsForFirefox/issues/142 so the whole question is moot. The project’s dev seems to be actively involved in making that possible though. I guess I’ll live without nice web-apps on the steam deck for now, it’s not a deal breaker.
It’s genuinely funny, I don’t know what more you want. (I don’t consider myself a frontend dev fwiw)
I am not the least bit surprised.
When they first announced it so soon after the Steam Machine was announced, it couldn’t have been more obvious that it’s unlicensed. There’s just no way they could have secured a license from Valve that fast.
After that though, you might think they had plenty of time to reach out and make a deal. And yes, I did half expect them to do this instead of being complete idiots, but judging by the sheer confidence they showed in the original announcement, being complete idiots is also likely.
I am slightly annoyed at Valve for waiting up until the last possible minute to send that C&D, considering they HAD to know about this product right from the start. But I get it. Giving Valve the maximum benefit of the doubt, they could have decided to wait for dbrand to contact them, and they probably already worked up the terms by which they’d license their IP. But as a sort of power play combined with a test of character, they needed dbrand to be the one to make contact first. And they just waited for that to happen, because dbrand HAD to get a license from them, right? Alas, dbrand failed the test of character. Damn.
