I’ve considered trades even with it being a full 180 from what I do now. Seems like location can vastly vary the experience. Build the base and bones of what society runs off of seems interesting though.

Where can I get a steam controller dirt cheap? I’ve wanted one since I got my SD but any of them in decent used shape seem to go for $50-60 and often are missing the dongle.

Appreciate you sharing that. While I do enjoy platformers I worry the entire thing is a novelty that I’d stop carrying after a few weeks.

That’s certainly part of it, my steam deck is in use most days and easily one of my best video game purchases.

I very much have wanted one of these to carry around for quick gaming fixes, but have struggled to justify the $219 for one. Especially when I have seen mixed reviews of the quality, hard to tell if vocal minority or it’s just a lucky draw if you get a good one or not. Anyone had one for a while and still loving it?

This is a great post. I don’t personally need it but I love to see these sorts of teaching/sharing posts especially when companies make these sorts of decisions.

Fair enough :)

I’m opposite and just now have a 4 year old dabbling with electronics.

You’ve done nothing wrong but FYI you can block things at a device level in most cases. My little kid currently has device level restrictions as well as NextDNS restrictions. As she gets older I’ll probably look at something more strict like a provisioned profile to make it harder for her to work around those restrictions. Nothings perfect and as you said kids will find a way.

Thanks, Gluetun looks like it’ll do the trick. Appreciate the help!

Thanks I’ll take a look at Gluetun.

I agree that in office can be more productive. Otherside of the coin, many places aren’t a single monolithic office or even campus. These giant tech companies forcing RTO results in people driving into an office to get the same experience as at home. (Aka on zoom calls all day)

It’s the Bill Burr method.
