  • My hands are about average size, maybe just a little smaller, and I do in fact have difficulties reaching the thumb sticks.

    It’s not a major issue. I’ve had my Deck ever since original LCD launch, and absolutely love it. But playing on something like the Legion Go S is noticeably more comfortable.

    Overall, it’s probably not about hand size, but grip and preference. There are many people with small and weak hands who say the Steam Deck is perfect for them. And there are also people with big, strong hands who say that it’s a little too big or heavy.




  • Tbh an eye for an eye.

    This approach is precisely what eventually gets you a nuclear war. If neither side cares about morals, if neither is willing to even try deescalating, and if both are fine slaughtering innocents - sooner or later you get destruction for everyone and everything.

    It’s like somebody murdered a member of your family, so in retaliation you murdered a member of their family. Repeat 15 times and you’re all dead. For what? Satisfying your egos? In what world is that justifiable in any capacity? Or even morals aside - in what world is that at all helpful?

    The US and its allies have committed war crimes time and time again, actively disregarding international rule of law.

    So? Again - one country commits war crimes, so others should too?

    As an American I can truthfully say we are too far insulated from the atrocities our gov commits and we condone or at least ignore them.

    I’m not even American and I find this incredibly ignorant, as well as insulting to Americans. That’s how bad this part is.

    There’s too many people far too comfortable with war so long as it doesn’t touch their comfy little western countries, and maybe if they actually felt the threat of it we might have some people willing to do something.

    Who is comfortable with war? Aside from ultra rich psychopaths for whom it’s beneficial. Many people don’t really know war, because their countries haven’t participated in one in nearly a century or longer. Is it their fault for being born in peaceful regions of the planet?

    I don’t know what you expect here. This entire comment is just a bunch of random topics glued together in hopes they’ll magically fit and make sense. You offered an rxtremely simplistic and limited perspective, without contributing anything new, other than “yeah, fuck everybody, they deserve it”.




  • As if Russian anti-Ukraine propaganda wasn’t enough, Ukraine feels the need to pull crazy shit like this.

    Yes, please, fuel the war with Iran and drive oil prices higher, just because Iran is supplying Russia. By the same logic, Russia is within their rights to attack all of Europe for supplying Ukraine.

    Just because Russia invaded Ukraine and killed several thousand of Ukrainian civilians, doesn’t mean Ukraine gets to kill Russian and Iranian civilians. If Ukraine is gonna spend equipment it gets from the EU on killing innocent people and escalating the conflict, the EU really should reevaluate its support to Ukraine.

    Again - just because another country invades you and commits war crimes, does not mean you get to commit war crimes against it and its allies. A war crime is a war crime.

    Would anyone be okay with Iran slaughtering American civilians, just because the US slaughtered Iranian civilians? Or even further, would anyone be okay with Iran targeting British civilians, because the UK assists the US in military operations?








  • I can’t find any link to source code, and searching for it on DDG also seems to give nothing. Unless I’m terminally blind and you can see it. In which case checking commits, their description, and code in general could help figuring this out.

    If it’s just the text, then personally I don’t mind. A lot of great programmers and engineers aren’t linguists in the slightest, and so their writing is rarely a pleasant read. Here at least everything is clear and properly written. Assuming it is indeed AI-written, because I can’t really tell anymore.

    Frankly, I despise all launchers, Steam included. The only reason it gets a pass is because it’s one of the two somewhat reasonable ones, and the only one that makes gaming on Linux simple and convenient.

    It’s still slow, ugly as hell, and entirely unnecessary. Makes me want to pirate more, but then I’d have to set the games up from scratch.

    The only use case for launchers is console gaming. It makes perfect sense on a Deck, Switch or a PS5. But absolutely no sense whatsoever on a desktop PC.

    Again - Steam has features that make it tolerable (achievements, screenshot sharing, workshop, etc.), but I’d still prefer to just play my games without anything in the middle.
