This is a very bad outcome, though. The "default" district should not be Arch. It's an awful choice for mass adoption. And no, most PC gamers aren't going to want to DIY shit. I CAN do that, but I WANT to just install a normal OS and for it to work normally. Arch is the antithesis of that.
And frankly GNOME is a million times more polished than KDE.

Any non-DLC or upselling type of game I have no issue with.

Buy one now if you want one, if the next version comes out you’ll have the same debate if you should wait for the next one after.
Unless the anti glare screen is an absolute must have, Go with the cheapest model and upgrade the storage in your own. The process of upgrading the storage is super simple. the price difference between a 512 gb vs 64 gb steam decks is $250, where you can get a compatible 512 gb nvme for $90.
Also they sell anti glare screen protectors as well.

I'm using a DualShock 4 that I've had for years. Paired pretty easily and typically works fine. I mentioned some Bluetooth issues but I think it's just interference from other devices. The only real problem is if I'm inactive in a game for more than a few minutes the controller inputs will only work in the OS, so I have to close and reopen it. Weird bug but don't encounter it too much.

Ubuntu and it's derivatives were already very n00b popular.

Oh no you removed candy crush. In my opinion the only games that should come with windows is solitaire , minesweeper, and that ski game from windows 3.1.
I totally get it I have a 2 year old. But I have to say the guys at system 76 made it out of the box ready and steam makes it so easy.

The steam deck is dead lol there won’t be a 2nd version.

Reply to Diving drone can switch between flying and swimming | A drone that can fly like a standard quadcopter but also operate underwater could be developed as a tool for engineers and search and rescue teams by chrisdh79
Hmmm… and we’ve been having weird little craft pop up next to naval ships…
This possibility has always struck me as more plausible than aliens or whatever. Many of the encounters don’t involve the jets and are instead very close range, relatively slow moving uknown objects that appear and disappear seemingly randomly. Seems to fit the bill for a submersible drone.

Playing games casually when you can’t play on your actual machine. If handheld doesn’t appeal to you, don’t sweat it. I primarily play on my steam deck over my main rig now.

Most of the games I play on mine aren’t games I’m worried about playing on ultra. It’s a small screen, medium graphics on most games looks great. I replayed all of the Bethesda fallout games and yes, fallout 76. Never had an issue playing any of those on high.
