This is true.

I’m also wondering what OP was wearing when he took the phone in for repairs, seems like he was asking for it.

Yeah I’m confused, my SteamDeck seems to do fine at 720-900p depending on what I’m playing, but any higher resolution and it’s going to tank pretty hard.

“Well that can’t be right because it’s made more money in 25 years than the entire house of mouse did in like 100” -Some Executive numbers guy, probably.

Sounds like it’s gotten dusty inside or your hard drive is very close to full, or both.

That’s not normal behavior.

TLDR: Sony would break unlicensed third party accessories connections on purpose with system updates.

That might not be so bad and well within their right you may say, but Sony also would ignore requests from these third-party companies to use licenses for their products, essentially creating a monopoly on licensed controllers.

The combination of the two things is what led to the fine as being anti-competitive and anti-consumer.

Yes that’s the problem.

Yes, I understand some people wanted it to do or be more, as I said I am not one of those people. I just wanted an awesome remote play device because I was tired of connecting my phone to various things just to get a weak facsimile of my PlayStation.

I won’t be mad if they update it to do more, but I’m certainly not knocking points off the thing simply because it isn’t a Swiss Army knife for gaming. I could use my SteamDeck for that.

My guy we have had low latency Bluetooth standards for a long time. You are being duped by corporate propaganda. Do a Google for “AptX LL”. I use Bluetooth headphones on my SteamDeck all the time with no observable latency.

And yet when I use it I do notice a tiny bit of latency, which is fine for the most part in nearly everything I play, but I’m not sure I’d want to play a rhythm based game on it.

I’m not alone in this either: Steam Desk - Bluetooth audio latency issues

Well it’s not made for those things, so I’m not upset it doesn’t do them.

And there actually is a reason it doesn’t use Bluetooth headphones, because Bluetooth adds latency and there would be a delay trying to use them for gaming.

You can see this happen now with a lot of VR headsets, the delay from Bluetooth is really noticeable enough to break immersion.

And I’m really enjoying the Portal, it’s everything I could hope for in a simple remote play device.

Absolutely stacked year, I don’t think I could choose!

You need some wool socks, bro.

Why do peacocks have such elaborate feather displays?

…it was a tongue-in-cheek reply to the dismissive retort of the person I was responding to…the tone of which was meant to convey the ridiculousness of the statement, which they heavily edited to be far less sexist, to their credit.

Also how would you like me to not recognize the disparity imparted by their “genitals” in a comment discussing how the people with openings for genitals were allowed special treatment at this time, and less so at later times. It’s literally the entire context.

For sure.

It’s just once they got back home they still weren’t allowed to vote, grow professional careers, get equal access to higher education, own their own property while with a man because of coverture laws, be allowed to play in athletic sports or form leagues, hold any real position of political power, get a divorce easily to escape abusive relationships, allowed to be legally raped by their spouses as much as he wanted while having zero reproductive rights, etc.

Just some give and take for that one day for some unlucky dudes, as you put it.

Well, yeah. She was still a woman in an oppressively ordered patriarchy. Things have gotten a lot better since then.

Naw it’s a sweet love story with a standard loss ending.

Rose’s motivations are primarily driven by her desire for freedom and independence. She feels trapped by her wealthy but oppressive family and her engagement to the controlling and wealthy Caledon.

She’s looking for a way to escape her life and find her own identity. This leads her to a deep emotional connection with Jack. Her motivations are centered on breaking free from the constraints of her upper-class background and pursuing a life of her own choosing, which ultimately culminates in her decisions and actions throughout the film. He represents everything she’s yearned for.

Plus he’s really hot, so that helps.

It’s hideous and obnoxious and I’d never do it to my own deck, but I kinda like it.

That was hilarious, sad and adorable at the same time. Thank you for the context, I’ve never seen the show before.

And they’re the size of a grain of salt.

My brain kinda wishes it hadn’t seen this.

I wasn’t sure so I didn’t want to say, thanks for the information.
