The all new steve deck, starting at just $999 (64MB)

[–] llii@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 10 months ago

And 4GB ram.

You were so preoccupied with whether you could, that you didn't stop to think whether you should.

[–] Petter1@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

And, that is a good thing 😂

It's got 2-4x as much RAM as the average apple device so maybe that makes at a Newton pro max ultra

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 46 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Finally a Mac that's good for gaming

"Wake up babe, proton support for MacOS just dropped!"

[–] ElectroLisa@lemmy.blahaj.zone 31 points 10 months ago

As a person who used to do Hackintoshes I am impressed people got it to boot on a Steam Deck

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

[–] ConsistentAlgae@reddthat.com 20 points 10 months ago

Why, God, why?

Apple iCantusemydeck

[–] averyminya@beehaw.org 16 points 10 months ago

Ah, I see apple has came out with a brand new device form factor never seen before. It must be the iDeck

"Out of the box, the Steam Deck’s screen will default to portrait."

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (2 children)

So does the legion go. I don't understand why there isn't something built in to fedora to prevent this but I've never been able to find a setting for it.

[–] histic@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

You probably won’t it’s just because the resolution is 720x1280 instead of the normal 1280x720 so it just assumes that is the correct orientation for the screen but it’s because screen manufacturers don’t make screens landscape this size due to the market being small as they are normally used for tablets

Edit: fun fact the vita and switch are also both like this not sure about the Wii u

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Thank you for the explanation. It switches sometimes by accident and I didn't know that.

[–] dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Try wdisplay (on wayland), or xrandr (on xorg)

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll check it out.

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

The steam deck has a microphone.. You invented the most cumbersome iPhone

[–] unrushed233@lemmings.world 14 points 10 months ago

Is that an actual Hackintosh (running on bare metal) or just a virtual machine?

[–] chronicledmonocle@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Thanks. I need eye bleach now.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 months ago

iPhone 1 from the 1950s

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 4 points 10 months ago

Did they ever fix the orientation?

[–] Flamekebab@piefed.social 4 points 10 months ago

A smaller, cheaper alternative to the high end models.
