Good on KDE and Valve for just doing HDR and bypassing the wayland people who have just sat on the PR for 3 years: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/4589 ; https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/14
This would be amazing on my Valves Steam branded Steam Deck, with high definition OLED screen, whopping 512gb of storage, 30-50% more battery life, and running Valves Steams Steam Decks SteamOS. All for an affordable $549.
I like my deck a lot but I can’t imagine spending $600 all in on one. Probably because I actually don’t use it in handheld mode much anymore so the OLED is not a big deal to me, and swapping out the storage is trivial so you don’t really need to pay for the 512gb and pay that markup.
Try living in New Zealand where $600 would be considered a bargain. If we could get a Deck at all.
Ok…but I don’t and that’s a lot for me lol. I also spend thousands more a year on healthcare than the average person because freedomland. I’ll gladly swap cheaper steam decks for your healthcare!
Sorry, I was alluding to how expensive everything is here. Even with our free healthcare, the average American still has more disposable income than the average NZer.
And unfortunately decades of underfunding and budget cuts has our ‘free’ health system on its knees. Many people now pay for health insurance or even fundraiser to go private because waiting lists are so insane. If it continues on the way it is, people are goi g to end up with the American system anyway as people will opt for paid insurance that gives them far more choice and better access than the poor person system will (aka our current system will become like Medicaid and not people will be insured or user paid anyway).Sorry to be all doom and gloom on a gaming community, just sometimes really sucks to be so isolated and watching society around you go to shit.
Any, I’m gonna go put my energy where I want it to go and do some volunteer work 😊
Looking back, my comment was definitely a little sharper than I intended. Meant to be more playful but I imagine I let some snark slip in there. My apologies. Hope you had/have a good day!
This is what I would play on my Steam Deck OLED. If I had any!
I bet this will look great on my new oled deck.
