I feel bad for anyone with no linux experience who bought a steam deck. There’s a good amount of weirdness with the UI sometimes, and modifying desktop mode controls can lead to it ignoring inputs until steam launches on occasion.

I know these issues stem from this being a brand new device with a brand new form factor, using whacky proprietary track pads and shit. But someone who’s only used windows might attribute them to linux and be left with a bad taste.

It’s good that the Ally exists so we can have a windows handheld to compare against.

I reckon you could kill it with a pin in a casual enough way, maybe make it look like you’re just putting a hand there to lean? Also you have like 4 other people come throughout the day and get gas at that same pump, and they do a similar casual hand movement around the speaker.

You’d be safe as houses, probably!

Yep. Just shell stations around here (so far at least)

They’re super loud and in my experience usually political, think local office smear ads and oil lobbyist propaganda.

If the gas pumps have those unlabeled buttons around a screen, try pressing all of em. The pumps around here (nebraska) will mute the audio when you press one of the buttons, it just isn’t labeled. I’ve taken to writing “mute” on the magic-button with a sharpie whenever I pump my gas.

The email he got from support suggested hosting the mp3 on a third party site like youtube or soundcloud, which is a good idea I reckon. Youtube would work for videos, and I guess imgur or imgbb for images?

Not ideal, but all free!

Oh jesus, THAT’S why there’s a million hoops to jump through before they even give you access to LOOK at options trading now. I always just figured someone lost a bunch of money and sued, that’s so grim.

Not everything is an algorithm or ratios. Hopefully you know that.

This is just straight up wrong. Literally everything theoretically could be extrapolated into an “algorithm or ratio” complex enough to consider every factor, and perfectly simulate the real-world outcome.

You obviously had an issue with the statement as-made by the CEO. The question you’re dodging is essentially “how different would it have to be for you to not have the issue you’re having right now?”

Unless, of course, you’d just be angry no matter what the guy said. If this is the case, it would easily explain why you’re throwing out non-answers and superfluous catty dialogue.

Vermin Supreme still stands by his pony plan doesn’t he? You KNOW he’s out here using FiM++

If I need to accept a TOS to use a vending machine, I don’t need to use that vending machine.

I have linux on everything except a surface pro 5, which ONLY exists for adobe and autodesk apps. Probably only works because I’m using the versions I’m comfortable with (from 2012) and they’re not too terribly bloated.

It’s not ideal, but fuck if I’m gonna try learning freecad AGAIN.
