Ok I’m a little late. But how about the SteamRoller?
Opportunity missed! Much better name. Downright genius in my mind.
Anyone who genuinely believes 399 is too expensive for the steam deck is the definition of entitled
The most overhyped overpriced gaming device since the Steam Machines. Steam Shrek DELAYED LMAO at you Steam Shrek fanboys fanboys 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I would rather the steam deck be more money and play 1080p gaming
Never heard of stream deck
I just really hope Intel starts making mobile CPUs that have are more thermally efficient or they implement something to alleviate it. As it stands I won't recommend Intel over AMD in mobile use cases without significant (bulky heavy) cooling solutions.
hm until you said it here i haven´t thought about the elgato stream Deck, since its a completly different device so i would say the name steam deck is ok
Why do I see people hating on luke in the live chat replay?
I don't wear underwear … are you willing to put those underwear prints on swimsuits?
They said the models were trained using billions of lines of "public code" which is completely legal(I'm not a lawyer, just saying to the best of my knowledge). If they are using code from public repos & open sources projects then there's no wrong done. All of the open source licenses allow for use & distribution of code in any way you choose, commercial or otherwise… As long as they aren't using private repos I don't see a problem…
The base model price is amazing but having to pay almost double for a meagre 500 GB nvme is rediculous, at that price it should have been a 2TB nvme.
But… Can it run crysis… But for real tho I will only care if I can play Rust, DayZ, and Scum on it. Can anyone come comment here and confirm this for me in the future. Thanks 😊
Steam GO
Steaming Pile
Steam Pal would be a great name.
"GitHub Copilot doesn’t actually test the code it suggests, so the code may not even compile or run." – LOL. If I see GitHub co-pilot on a CV, it will immediately go in the bin.
From everything I’ve seen of how GPT-3 works, the chances of it plagiarizing any code in any meaningful way, anything more than a line, seems extremely unlikely. I could see it learning more subtle things like common bugs over time, but I feel like those can be slowly filtered out as the system is fine tuned
I think that the perspective of people saying that it’s too expensive is less about the console’s specs and more about its user base. Personally, I’m definitely going to buy one and I think it looks great, but to the average consumer its kind of just another hand held console, and that’ll probably put a lot of people off of trying it. It’s an interesting situation.
Also, the name is so horrible that when you try to google the “steam deck” most of the predictions it brings up (including the ones that directly reference Valve) correct “steam” to “stream”
For a marketer like me, it kinda looks like Steam hijacked the work already done by Elgato's Stream Deck. It's a common marketing technique and works very well.
Preorded is big overstatement it is just a reservetion with ablity to cancell at any time. I have reserved my 256 GB version for Q2 of 2022, but I will evaluate my reservation after first round will be shiped.
Sir please make video on how make raid 6 nvme sdd nas
fuckin sentr on a reserve on the 512 gig. hope yall dont fuck up, steam.
aha
They should have called the SteamDeck, The Portal.
im not sure who wouldnt want this. I bought a 500 us$ notebook with much worse specs. At 400, its a much better notebook that anything in the market, and you can plug it to a monitor, with bluetooth keyb and mouse and work just fine.
People are crazy if they think this is too expensive, it's literally a mini computer, and it's freaking portable!
I don't want to put a damper on this but it looks a bit too good to be true , it could flop like other devices but we will see.
Steam Play
Xbox Gamepass
I think it could've been called "Steam Power"
Shaved off or bulked up to 669 grams
The worst thing about the valve steam deck? it's not Half Life 2 Episode 3 or Half Life 3.
Imagine talking shit about people that can't afford overpriced products. I can't afford a Valve Index due to its absurd price. Does that mean I'm some gimme gimme self-entitled jerk? Not at all. That just means I live and work in a place where I couldn't afford those kinds of things in my wildest dreams. I can barely afford to live paycheck to paycheck working full-time, let alone buy some overpriced piece of hardware.
This is just another fine example of people shitting on "the poors" because you have more money than us. At least we value ours.
I strongly suspect they are taking a bit of a loss on the $399 dollar unit for the time being.
I am not excited about the design of the thumb sticks or xyba buttons. The thumbs sticks being high is weird to me but then again I prefer the thumbsticks low like the playstation. Also it seems like my thumb would be too close to my index finger to hit the xyba buttons properly.
I woulda called it the steam portal or even the void
I am considering using this to replace my current Alpha R2 as my gaming PC. I do not care about AAA brand new release games that much and just go for couple year old Steam deals and pick a game up every couple of months. Having a minimal desktop PC that can double as a portable is an amazing thought.
My only concern with it is the text size for many games will probably be terrible… hopefully not as bad as some of my experiences on Switch in portable mode, but I do fear this.
I also don't understand the name hate beyond the similarity to Stream Deck. I mean, they do know that a deck is a flat surface, like a skateboard deck for example… So Deck is a fitting name, and seems fine to me. shrug emoji
The amount of stupid comments during streams is crazy. I guess i know why i turn them of right at the start.
I wished they continued the valve – steam naming convention thing, but I can’t for the life of me think of anything that fits. A valve lets out steam. Steam can turn into… condensation? Droplets? Vapor? Mist? Fog? A cloud?
When is in-studio wan show coming back ;-;
Yes I have the streamdeck. I use it for online teaching
I’d go for a synonym for “adventure” as the name, like the Steam Venture, Voyage, Trek, or something like that.
HEy what about the "Hellbender" Sounds cool. Valve Hellbender. Indeed, this console deserves a better name than deck.
Water cooling in channels on chips was more exciting the first time ya’ll brought it up, less the third
he ist bashing the nintendo stwitch but playing nintendo wii games
