It depends on the focus I think, some anthropology careers do fall under STEM. But generally it's not a STEM degree afaik.

Thanks, that was what I was looking for, but I missed the source data. That table also adds in an underemployment rate, which is a good reference too I think. Many of the degrees with the worst unemployment rates also have very high underemployment rates, meaning that many of the people in those degrees who do have jobs are only finding part time work or are stuck with jobs that don't meet their qualifications.

While computer science/engineering does have a high unemployment rate, it's underemployment rate is far better than the surrounding degrees. Taking that into consideration does make it seem like a better career than just the unemployment rate would suggest.

Other than anthropology, I think the rest of those are all STEM majors as well.

There was a performance mod being passed around that I tried earlier, it had some significant performance gains but had some serious downsides like some fabric would lose physics and just stick straight out, and things like the paint bridges were completely invisible.

I'm curious how this compares to non-STEM majors.

Valve employees are given time to work on self selected projects. I'm guessing that leads to more new projects than people taking over maintenance of existing projects.

Stellar Blade is UE4, while Wukong is UE5.

UE5 performance is pretty bad on nearly every game it's in unfortunately.

Yeah, I don't mention it very often anymore, but I'm always playing HSR on the side. I'm glad hoyo games work so well on the Deck.

I saw that water-cooled deck, I really love those unhinged deck mods like that. The Doom promo art is also amazing.

I thought it was pretty interesting that NineSols and Bō launched so close to each other with such similar themes. I wonder if that hurt or helped sales. Usually a close release to another similar game would hurt you, but I could imagine that people who enjoyed one of them might turn around and buy the other as well.

Edit: I tried the Stellar Blade Demo. It was kinda short compared to the more long form demos I've seen lately (games like MetaphorRefantizio have absolutely massive demos), but performance is pretty great. It's clearly been well optimized, at the default settings it's only pulling 16w or so in the starting area, so it looks like there's a lot of room to play around with higher settings. The devs even have the default control scheme use the Deck's back buttons. They clearly put a lot of actual attention and work into optimization and the deck experience, which is fantastic to see from a non-indie developer.

I'm still playing Clair Obscura Expedition 33 as my main game. I'm really enjoying it, I could take or leave the party/dodge mechanics, but the amount of build customization between weapon effects, skills, and equipable passives is incredible. A bunch of my friends have also bought the game, and we keep sharing builds we've found that feel super strong.

I recommend this performance mod, lets me play with a bit higher settings and raised my fps by 10 fps in some areas. It has a lot of different presets, I've been using default lighting ultra performance (and they using XeSS or FSR in game for upscaling)

To install the mod'a performance settings, copy the settings folder content to:

/home/deck/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1903340/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/Sandfall/Saved/Config/Windows/

To unlock all graphics settings in the game, you need the launch option SteamDeck=0 %command% , or alternatively installing fsr via the DeckyFramegen mod will also seemingly unlock all the other graphical settings as well.

OEMs tailor windows as much as they can, but there's only so much you can do.

From looking at Bazzite documentation, ujust is a collection of scripts that run different updaters/etc. It does cover bios updates by running ujust enable-deck-bios-firmware-updates.

From looking at the Bazzite github, this runs a shell script that checks to make sure you have Steam Deck hardware and don't have the DeckHD replacement screen or 32GB ram mods installed, and then enables jupiter-biosupdate.service. I'm guessing that service is probably using fwupd for updates, but haven't been able to confirm it yet. If anyone else has some insight I'd be interested to hear it. I know the bazzite founder is active here but I'm going to restrain myself from pinging him and wasting his time over curiosity.
