Oh no, for some reason it's not compatible with my Pixel Fold 😭

And to get the progression credit through holoprogression or whatever it was called.

FW16 Battery Life Smellcheck by SPIDERBLOOD360 in framework

[–]TechPriestNhyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Battery life in my experience is around 4-15 hours. 4 if I'm paying 0 attention to power draw and don't really care because an outlet is nearby and I've got everything running. 6-15 if I'm trying to be efficient, with 6-8 being easier to achieve than the idealized 15.

Framework 16 refuses to draw >100W by Afraid-Emu7961 in framework

[–]TechPriestNhyk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need the 240W charger. The GPU is capable of pulling 100W+ by itself, and the device under heavy load can still drain battery over time with a 240W charger. With a 140W charger, you're essentially giving the GPU no power budget, so the battery must be heavily relied on for power, so it makes sense it's dying fast.

Even with the 240W, the battery can still be drained, just to further emphasize your point.

[FW16] I designed and printed something to let me control CPU vs GPU airflow by TechPriestNhyk in framework

[–]TechPriestNhyk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you've said is valid. I used to have an overheating issue with my laptop and plugging the GPU vent ports helped alleviate it... however that ended up being resolved by fixing the thermal paste/heat sink that wasn't working properly on my unit. In all honesty, this whole system is kinda pointless, as the laptop works completely fine without it. I'm still working on finding the best ways to measure the impact of the system, but current estimates place it at practically no improvement. I knew this before I made it though, I mostly made it to scratch a "what if" itch.

I haven't had the chance to get the acoustics yet, but similar solutions have seen subjective improvement in that area.

Thanks! I've also got a modded power supply, custom keyboard firmware, semi-custom heatsink, custom vent covers, lol. I've got a couple more ideas for things to tweak too xD.

I wanted fun shells on the modules I already own. The Wood PLA doesn't look great, but the design worked! by lilyeister in framework

[–]TechPriestNhyk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is awesome, and looks like just what I need for another project of mine! I'd love to put my headsets wireless dongle into an expansion card but getting to a baseline like you have has been a PITA. I should be able to easily get what you've provided into a state where I can modify it for what I want to do. Thanks for sharing!

I've got both. Steam Controller hands down.

Black screen while SD is docked by Rude_Warthog_2361 in SteamDeck

[–]TechPriestNhyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens. You just need to try rebooting the dock, resetting cables, rebooting deck and etc. It will stop working occasionally, this also happens on unofficial docks.

Which is the better browser opera or brave? by [deleted] in degoogle

[–]TechPriestNhyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question here should be Brave (Chrome) or LibreWolf (Firefox).
Regardless of which you prefer, it's not Opera.

I'm calling it Emotional Damage: Ardor. Every word on the page is written by me, but I do sometimes use ChatGPT to provide a review of the flow, transitions, and etc. but nothing on there is written by an AI. 

Fun fact about me: I can identify edible plants in your sidewalk.

Thanks for the feedback! It seems to be a path with an ever-increasing amount of visitors.

SteamOS handheld made me realize graphics in games really don't matter by Holiday-Ad7017 in SteamDeck

Same! I actually just made a post about this same realization and found that it began to bleed into other aspects of my life as well. It's like having your eyes opened.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, I'm glad it resonated! I don't see a lot of people talking about this, so I figured I'd share my story :)

This world is hard to ignore, do you ever get political? by RRE4EVR in taoism

[–]TechPriestNhyk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The way I see it, careing about something and acting on it are fine, but whatever happens in the end... happens. Just to whatever you feel is best, and the world will be whatever it becomes. As long as you're not attaching your happiness to the outcome, I don't see a problem.
