So is inflation an epidemic too?

Yes.... Not the point you're trying to make I guess.

We should let the SG pass any law he wants!

SG isn't passing any laws. They are making a statement.

They went bankrupt funding progun policy.

Also, being a treasonous front for Russian political interference didn't help their cause

Canada says "High". we don't have a functional mental health solution and it's only gotten worse. And while we do have gun crime, it's nowhere near the same as our southern neighbour because of our gun restrictions and we don't Fetishize gun culture.

Mental health IS part of the problem. But the insane culture around owning firearms in the US directly leads to the prevalence of gun crime.

Religions don’t tend to spring up from nowhere.

Let me introduce you to our good friend Ronald Hubbard and this pesky Religion called "Scientology"

I don't do difficult games cause of physical issues. I tried Elden Ring and was very impressed, but ultimately it was unplayable for me even trying to go easy.

What do you recommend cheat wise? I'm running on Linux and I really don't care about online.

With summer in particular my office/gaming room can become unbearable hot

Grabbing my deck and laying on the couch outside has been amazing

I also keep it docked on my tv and use it as a console and stream in home streaming for everything

If we're lucky, Steamdeck verified will also mean it'll run fine on linux.

And it would be great and would break Microsoft's hold on the "desktop" for the average user.

These sorts of computers do already exist though. They're called NUC's. Valve could basically just take one fo those, use a custom APU from AMD again, and have their own full fledged console. Heck, the XBOX and PS5 is exactly that. A Custom AMD APU in a small box.

The point of the Deck versus anything else was that it was common x86 architecture and it runs skinned linux, thus letting us have access to virtually all our library.

Moving to ARM based silicon would massively change things in that regard. We don't want yet another platform to have to worry about ports for. The Steam Deck is a PC and that's it's goal

I don't want a Steam Deck 2. I want Steam Deck to live up to the upgradability and customizability that Valve had originally empasized for it.

It would be amazing to be able to just swap the main board for a GPU update. on the OG deck, it's the single biggest bottleneck I run into. (for docked gaming on a big screen). Plus a better GPU would allow it to run cooler when only doing 720p and quieter on the fan.

but, Id on't want to buy another Steam Deck :p

A Neutral UN city not directly ran by Israel or Palestine would likely have settled a lot of tensions. Firstly, Israel couldn't claim it their capital, which has been a major pain point for decades now. Something Trump further inflamed by moving the US Consulate to Israel in it.

If it were made a place where all religions of all type are allowed in all parts as a historical landmark, maybe there'd be a peaceful place where the three Bbrahamic religions could actually find common ground.

Instead they created a religious McGuffin to fight over.
