The Limited Warranty does not apply if the Hardware:

In other words, simply changing SSD doesn't void warranty, but damaging the Steam Deck in the process of doing so does.

The title could be something descriptive like "The Beauty of Space", "Space is Beautiful", "Breathtaking Space Imagery", or just simply "Space".

Just as far fetched, yes.

Exactly my reasoning for holding off too.

For games that doesn't support Steam Cloud for saves etc., or in general moving files over to the Steam Deck from your PC, I highly recommend setting up Syncthing.

It's available on the Discover store in desktop mode and can be set up to run as a service to ensure that it's always running on Steam Deck, if you're so inclined. There's a myriad of guides out there if you search around, should you need help setting it up.

Not much was lost. Both Gizmodo and Kotaku content have already been indistinguishable from poorly generated AI content for ages now.

It's also worth taking a look at Fallout 4 VR for anyone that's into VR. Mods stealthily makes it into the best and most immersive experience yet, in my heavily biased opinion.

You can start by boosting instead of using the arrow, which is actually currently only counting as favoriting and does nothing to counter any reduces on a post. It's an oversight that's being worked on and will eventually change, as I've understood it.

And now nitter no longer works.

Definitely will be keeping my eye on this one.

OVPN still seems to support port forwarding, though it's worth pointing out they were recently acquired by Pango.

 

Could be good news regarding performance on Steam Deck.

 

I want to share an awesome tool called SteamDeck Refresh Rate Unlocker that I recently discovered. This script offers the ability to unlock the refresh rate of your Steam Deck's display, extending beyond the default range of 40Hz to 60Hz. With this tool, you can now achieve a maximum refresh rate of 70Hz, and even lower rates like 20Hz if that suits your preferences.

The script offers several presets to choose from, including:

  • 20Hz to 60Hz
  • 20Hz to 70Hz
  • 30Hz to 60Hz
  • 30Hz to 70Hz
  • 40Hz to 70Hz

While 70Hz may not be necessary for demanding games and may not be suitable for everyone, it's definitely worth a try, especially if you're sensitive to lower refresh rates. Increasing the refresh rate to 70Hz makes the display 17% faster. Personally, as someone accustomed to a 240Hz screen on my PC, I find it really beneficial for a smoother experience. Both my eyeballs and braincells are grateful.

I'd like to express my gratitude to ryanrudolfoba for developing this fantastic tool. Their dedication to enhancing the Steam Deck experience is highly appreciated!

Keep in mind that overclocking the display panel to 70Hz might cause artifacts on some panels. Just a friendly reminder to proceed with caution.
