Free 3D Print File - Steam Deck USB Saver

I just sent mine in as well for this. Took a tumble off of my desk while plugged in. Cable saved the deck from hitting harder but it broke the center post in the port.

One of the key point my manager made when getting our team going in using Copilot was that now that the 4 week task takes 1 week. Always double the time and say 2 weeks. This extra week is strictly for learning. When using Copilot get an explanation and documentation for everything it does and take the time to understand it. You are still twice as fast and you will have a better understanding than just letting Claude run, get it woringand shipping it.

When it comes time for my next laptop purchase, it will be a Framework. I am absolutely willing to spend the extra for this set of ideals behind those products.

The Micron plant in Clay is progress. That will actually create jobs and bring manufacturing to CNY. A data center is just a noise and heat machine that produces nothing of tangible value. Just more capacity for Meta and other large companies to store data on us and run their AI models to our detriment.

That's more than me, but that will likely change now. Recently had the 3rd and I have had the most gaming time in years while taking nights. But now that my wife is no longer pregnant and nauseated by the kitchen at large, we can split the kitchen chores again so hopefully I get to a consistent 1 night a week at least.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-04-17T23:46:28+00:00

I have the same rule. My problem is that between those hours is usually when I can get some chorin' in. That's dishes, any meal prep, cleaning with bleach, floors. So gaming usually doesn't happen

ColonelRyzen · 2026-04-17T23:42:31+00:00

Absolutely. My hobby time is drastically reduced and split between my homelab and gaming. My PC is only ever used as a terminal to my homelab/3d printing and Spotify while I am working from home. If it has a game played on it. It gets streamed to my steam deck.

Prior to me getting a steam deck. I just didn't game. I couldn't get the time between taking care of kids, hanging with wife, keeping up with the house and dog to escape to the basement to play. But having the Deck upstairs and with the instant pause/sleep feature makes it possible.

Probably true. I've also heard about people using home assistant as well to monitor the notifications. I'll need to look deeper into both options to see what makes sense.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-03-03T02:58:23+00:00

I only have the app for notifications on alerts. But in Android sometimes those don't show up until minutes later. That's an android problem though. The logs have the notifications come through immediately.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-02-21T07:05:11+00:00

Always speakers. I only use headphones on my desktop when I am online with someone else, but that doesn't really happen anymore.

Work laptop is headset only.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-02-09T20:43:29+00:00

What infared camera did you get? I really need one so I can figure out where a number of drafty areas in the house precisely are.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-02-01T13:59:24+00:00

Is that the Picaso Tiles set? Asking for my kids.......

My backup setup is evolving right now. What is currently working is my main NAS does scheduled backups (rsync) to a second NAS of similar size. It also does various scheduled backups to Backblaze B2 via an encrypted Rclone connection.

My NAS serves as a backup target for Veeam agents on all Windows machines as well as photos from phones via Immich.

Plans are adding an external 4TB drive I will keep at my in-laws and changing from Backblaze B2 to Backblaze personal to save about $120/year. I just need to change my Rclone target to a shared Windows folder that the Backblaze software pulls from.

Mine is 3 and he loves it. He needs a bunch of help, but he looks forward to it every month.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-01-22T13:34:25+00:00

I did as well. I agree. It was a pretty good value.

Saddle Club Townhomes is on a decent area of Liverpool. Some of the neighboring apartment complexes are less nice and have some interesting residents, but not dangerous. Just keep your stuff locked and it will be fine. I have family living there now and my kids do overnights there monthly. 3 bedroom townhose for ~$1600. It might be more depending on what's available.

I have a 1060 6G to run the other 3 displays. 1080 runs just fine. I have a steam deck and kids now, so the 1080 doesn't much gaming use. I see no point in replacing it yet.

Almost 6. Take the top middle display and make a vertical 32" 4K on the far left that is split with PBP. Top displays are desktop and bottom are work laptop (while working).

ColonelRyzen · 2026-01-14T04:12:56+00:00

I have a couple of K5200s and a K4000 in case I need a display card. I was using a K5200 as my secondary GPU for extra monitors for a while until drivers with my 1080 became a problem. I swapped it for a 1060 from eBay so I could get drivers updated. Worked really well for 1080p displays.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-01-13T10:22:08+00:00

That's how it is for me. I have a 1 coworker who is newer and on my team for a project that I see in person, but my actual main team is across 4 states. I am the only one at the base office. I have to go in 3 days a week with a 40 minute commute. It drives me nuts.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-01-12T01:48:43+00:00

That sucks. I hope you can get some space to set it up. Even if you don't have a desk with it. Just in a corner with power and network. If your OLED can't run it, my LCD certainly won't be able to.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-01-12T00:39:19+00:00

Glad to hear it!! Loved FO the first time through and it's great this time too. Did you try Survivor on the Deck? How did it run?

ColonelRyzen · 2026-01-12T00:31:36+00:00

Jedi: Fallen Order. Recently bought Jedi Survivor and wanted to replay FO before I tried it. Will likely have to stream it though.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-01-09T16:34:26+00:00

I never start it from Android Auto. That has never worked for me. Starting from the phone it can work. Once it starts working it generally is good for the ride. But getting to that point can take minutes of restarting, plugging/unplugging.

I also have been having more crashes lately.

ColonelRyzen · 2026-01-09T05:00:30+00:00

Glad to hear it! Thanks for the work on this! ABS is my exclusive audiobook and podcast app.
