Having a usable product while your opponents continually shoot themselves in the foot is a viable market strategy.

Did you have to use GE-proton to get it to run? I think that used to be a requirement, but I'm curious if it runs without it now.

Is it the Phantom Liberty part specifically that isn't deck friendly? I replayed some of base cyberpunk on my OLED recently, and was really impressed by how well it runs now. I seem to remember performance being a lot worse when I tried it back on my original LCD deck.

Had a great time with YS 8, been meaning to pick up 9 or 10 whenever they have a decent sale.

I've been playing a whole lot of Metaphor ReFantizio, and highly recommend it.

I enjoy the persona games, but I actually do like a fantasy setting more than the modern day setting of persona. I also find some of Persona's mechanics make the game more tedious than it should be (You have to equip a matching persona before spending your time with someone socially, and you have to get the right conversation responses or spend multiple time slots building social points), and Metaphor gets rid of those points of frustration. The road trip aspect is really fun too, overall I'm having a great time with it.

You can probably just use any of the big chat programs, and just start out by telling it you want it to converse with you like it's just another person.

Gemini has that "live" feature where you can talk out loud and it sounds like you're talking to a real person. Combining that with pre-prompting for casual conversation is fairly convincing.

Depending on game, you can generally run at 720p or 1080p fine. You can do linear upscale (from the Deck's QAM menu>power settings) to upscale to 4k for no real performance hit, but it won't improve the graphical appearance either. Upscaling to 4k using FSR/etc is possible in some games, but usually has too much of a performance hit to be practical.

Metaphor Refantazio is great outside of a few spots with fps dips, but the recent SteamOS update has helped with those a lot. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys JRPGs.

There are smaller improvements each year, and from looking at it, it seems like EV automobiles and other markets are helping drive increasingly significant gains actually. I'm not sure on how much of the emergency density gains actually apply to small batteries though, or if it's more about improvements in larger batteries. Either way it's less stagnant than I thought.

You, and everybody else. I think everyone has been waiting on a new battery technology breakthrough for the past 10+ years.

It's probably not possible for supply reasons. OLED displays are expensive to produce in small numbers, so this is probably using screen components originally made for another device. Not many devices use a 720 or 800p screen at this size, so sourcing one probably isn't possible.

So I tried looking into it, but all I can find is this same user (go $fsck yourself) had some comments deleted by him about 6 months ago. I didn't actually comb through the modlog to see what the deleted comments contained, I'm not sure how feasible it is to review the modlog going that far back.

I couldn't find any actual proof of wrongdoing, the closest thing to evidence is that screenshot of Liam saying he thought it was stupid that modlogs were public. I also didn't find anyone else complaining about him as a mod, literally just this same guy copy pasting this comment on a ton of different gamingonlinux lemmy posts for the past 6 months.

Liam complaining about public modlog does sound like he got caught abusing mod privledges, but I'm leaning towards it just being between him and this go $fsck yourself user rather than widespread abuse.
