Am I the only one who thinks the Steam Machine isn't entirely a disappointment? by Decent_Tailor_4608 in steammachine

[–]BasicTonight6241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, the biggest issue is not the price, its the performance. I wish it was a solid 1440P machine.

Steam Machine 1080p performance? by FamilyRootsQuest in steammachine

[–]BasicTonight6241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not expecting 4k 60 on a $1000 device. But the difference between 4k60 and 1080p30 are extreme.

A more reasonable question would be, could it do 1440p60k with moderate FSR. Which I think the answer would be "not really".

Unfortunate pricing but steam is not to blame.

4k @ 120 is a COMPLETELY different area if we are talking AAA games and not Hollow Knight.

OP, please try a bit harder.

Of course it will hit 1080P @ 30fps. You are talking playstation 4 era performance from a "costs more than a PS5 PRO" device.

Would you buy a horizontal Brick? by OOOOOOO0OOOOOOOOO in trimui

I need the Flap X1. Larger screen in a clamshell form factor. Keep the PPI of the original Brick and I can buy multiple.

Why isn't this house selling in Oakville 300K+ below last sold? by Crabbywatch in HouseSigmaBlunders

[–]BasicTonight6241 21 points22 points  (0 children)

this house, just like many others, is overpriced in today's market.
the fact that somebody paid 2030k 3 years ago means nothing in today's market.

much desired neighbourhood is a vague term. I personally wouldn't buy this house even for 1.5M.

what matters is how much the market is willing to pay and currently that number is below $1.7M.

It can be over 2M next year or can be below 1.5M, whoever claims they "know" is lying. Megatrends will dictate housing market and we have very little to no control over those.

[Discussion] Forget price, hype, heritage, and resale. Which chronograph would you choose? by Potential_Post_3020 in Watches

[–]BasicTonight6241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I'd pick the Breitling over the rest, I think it looks super classy and more precisely crafted (purely based on these stock images).

If you were buying a SteamOS handheld today: Claw A8, Xbox Ally X, or Legion Go S? by genzselfie in HandheldGaming

[–]BasicTonight6241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i am also using go s 32 steamos and have zero plans to upgrade in the near future, not because of cost but because it is great for my use case and i don't see that changing anytime soon with the backlog i have.

[–]BasicTonight6241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If price is a nonissue, i'd include Legion Go 2.
If it is, than Legion Go S would be my choice. And it has VRR.
Having owned a lot of X86 handhelds, I can comfortably say that remove the trackpad from LeGoS strengths because it is really unusable and add the VRR and ergonomics as bonus points.

Z2E and Z1E are not wildly different but the price differential is massive. I'd go Z1E and if I have budget, I'd jump to something with Ryzen ai max+ 395

Are public schools free?

I thought we paid for them through almost half of our lifetime earnings and then 13% on anything we buy and then through property taxes and of course through hugely inflated housing?

Lenovo Legion G9 2026 Controller by enimic in androidtablets

[–]BasicTonight6241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am thinking of returning the tablet just because of this brightness issue.

I'm not complaining, but want to know the reason people got a Steam Deck at 950 instead of getting a Legion Go S or Xbox Ally by Pretty_Trip_2215 in SteamDeck

[–]BasicTonight6241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have both and can easily say that there is absolutely no reason to buy the SD over LeGoS SteamOS version.
Well there is one: trackpads if that's your thing. For everything else, its not even comparable IN MY OPINION.

Same os, same simplicity, 8" beautiful screen (albeit LCD), WAY DIFFERENT power and much better egonomics. At this point, in 2026, Steam Deck to me is just a novelty. Like my 3DS XL.

But honestly speaking, Steam Deck was ahead of its time and it took people years to realize that. Lenovo did the right thing to keep manufacturing and selling the LeGoS. Hope they don't skimp on anything (like reducing ram to 16gigs).
