I had to break myself away from No Man's Sky after about 100 hours or so, felt like it would completely consume me.

To install fonts, you need to get the font files and copy them to the fonts folder located at ~/.local/share/fonts/. The .local folder in in the Deck's home directory, but it's hidden by default so you'll need to turn on "show hidden files" in the file explorer menu. If the fonts folder doesn't exist already you can create it. After the fonts files are installed to the folder, reopen your applications and the fonts should show up.

As far as getting the font files, that's a lot harder. The AUR package people usually use to get fonts actually is downloading part of a windows installation iso and ripping the fonts from that. If you have access to any windows PC, you can copy the font files from C:\Windows\Fonts and use those.

Honestly the biggest issue is all the garbage websites using SEO to try to be at the top of the results without having actual meaningful content.

It seems like whenever I search for a problem, a bunch of websites come up with pages dedicated to that exact issue, but all of fixes are generic and don't actually help. And that whole website will be filled with pages like that, pages that claim to have solutions for specific problems but lack any content of substance. Add in paywalls to access sites, that lawsuit to have google remove the "view image button" from image results, and websites like Pinterest that require an account before you can view anything. People were relying on content from websites like reddit to get actual real answers to searches, and now reddit is looking at getting itself removed from google search as well.

I don't think it's that Google is specifically getting worse, but rather that the internet is becoming an increasingly unhelpful place where everyone is competing to sell you answers and drive clicks.

That's still not nearly as good as you should be getting. My deck gets around 480+ Mb/s downloads over WiFi if I have a good wifi connection.

Gotta love the Metroid fusion zombies.

Pure speculation, but I'm guessing the wreck + vehicle fire may have destroyed any computers/logs.

Assuming that there's an actual valid reason that it's unclear whether the vehicle was in autopilot or not.

The highlights:

"The case that concluded on Tuesday, in a California state court, was filed by two passengers in a 2019 crash who accused the company of knowing Autopilot was defective when it sold the car. Tesla argued human error caused the crash.

The 12-member jury announced they found the vehicle did not have a manufacturing defect. The verdict came on the fourth day of deliberations, and the vote was 9-3.

The civil lawsuit filed in Riverside County Superior Court alleged the Autopilot system caused owner Micah Lee’s Model 3 to suddenly veer off a highway east of Los Angeles at 65 miles per hour (105 km per hour), strike a palm tree and burst into flames, all in the span of seconds.

The 2019 crash killed Lee and seriously injured his two passengers, including a then-8-year-old boy who was disemboweled, court documents show. The trial involved gruesome testimony about the passengers’ injuries, and the plaintiffs asked the jury for $400 million plus punitive damages.

Tesla denied liability, saying Lee consumed alcohol before getting behind the wheel. The electric-vehicle maker also argued it was unclear whether Autopilot was engaged at the time of the crash.

In [other Tesla autopilot] lawsuits, plaintiffs allege Autopilot is defectively designed, leading drivers to misuse the system. The jury in Riverside, however, was only asked to evaluate whether a manufacturing defect impacted the steering."

There's a 3rd party launcher for it. They've asked people not to link it publicly, so I'll send you a DM.

A friend got me into Honkai Star Rail, so that's been taking up most of my time.

Other than that, I've also been playing Black Mesa and Trolley Delayma which is a free little trolley problem game.

I'm still putting off Baldur's Gate 3 hoping for FSR 2 to be added, but with silence from the devs on when/if that's being added, I'll probably go ahead and start playing it soon.

I've seen a similar setup for typing of the dead, except they did touch menus and turned each trackpad into half a keyboard.

I got a bunch of stadia controllers for free, and they're very ergonomic and work well with the deck. They don't have gyro/back buttons, but you can buy them for super cheap on eBay and they're a much more premium controller than other controllers in that price range. You may have to do the firmware update yourself to enable Bluetooth if the seller hasn't already done it.

Scheduling updates to only happen at night or something like that seems to be the best way. You can mark a wifi network as a metered connection while in desktop mode, but to the best of my knowledge this doesn't affect Steam Downloads.
