Hoping he means just for the labour, not the whole 9 months
Why would anyone brag about any of this. His poor partner.
I can see bringing the Deck, like you might be sitting there for at least 24 hours, you don’t need to be sitting there holding their hand the whole time…
But the keyboard? The mouse? The HEADPHONES? It’s not like you’re in an extended stay. You’re getting that baby out and going. You don’t need all that.
Wait wait wait, WINDOWS installed?
Just a cavalcade of poor decisions.
To be fair, a lot of anticheat tools don’t play nicely with Linux.
A few, not a lot, and not on any games worth playing
Right… I hope this isn’t the begining of a shitty broken home and the birth of lost soul.
Le setup. I love these guys posting their balls like this
The kind of guy who installs Windows on his steam deck is the same kind of guy who won’t let his wife get an epidural.
That poor woman
Having to deal with a guy who uses windows on his Steam deck
I would hope she would have known about his red flags before the baby lolol
If only there was a device that combined the Steam Deck with a keyboard and a 14" monitor. Like a Steam Deck that is designed to sit on top of your lap…
Pfft next thing you’ll tell me is that it’ll “fold up” when you’re done with it, get real pal your head is in the clouds lmao
He’s didn’t bring a second controller. Divorce.
What idiot would install windows on a steam deck. Defeats the whole point.
The kind of idiot that boasts about “system tweaks” and “audiophile headphones”.
His “audiophile” colleagues would also murder him for plugging them into a 20 cent onboard DAC chip and still calling it an audiophile setup
tbh the decks dac is surprisingly good- at least with my planar IEMs
I did install windows on a microsd to play some online games with my steamdeck. It’s a so-so experience, but at least means you can literally play anything on the steamdeck.
But at what cost!
Just get an ROG Ally at that point
SteamOS is still the main OS. I’ve just got a microsd for dual booting. I feel like a ROG Ally would be a downgrade at that point.
Dual boot Bazzite and windows(?)
My thoughts exactly
installs windows, instantly requires system tweaks and performance upgrades.
I’m no audio expert, but I feel like “audiophile headphones” and “headphones you can power directly from a steam deck” are probably mutually exclusive
Not necessarily, some high-end headphones manage to have a low resistance and high sensitivity combo and are easy to “drive” without a dedicated amp.
This is the kind of setup that once it’s complete you smile at how awesome it is, then pack it up because you don’t know what you even want to play and most of the games I do I wanna play i wanna play on a better monitor.
Not my ideal setup but happy he’s happy.
