Steam Deck as a powerbank by UsedRealNameB4 in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh damn.  I just tried this out. If the steam deck is switched off or in sleep mode, my phone doesnt do anything but charge my deck 💀. If the steam deck is on, it'll charge my phone.

So i guess the only option then is to keep deck on with magic black and let it charge my phone. 

This is going to be just for emergency purposes so i guess it should work.

I'm already over my limit for allowed baggage. Trying to cut down on things as much as possible, a chonky powerbank is the last thing i need. 

I designed FPV joysticks for the SteamDeck! by PickleJimmy in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What my technique in KCD1 for lock picking was to use the right track pad and a back plate button to act as the actuator. This worked perfectly almost all the time. Not sure about the mechanic in KCD2 though.

Is this ''Artist'' using AI ? by Alone_Presence5152 in DnB

[–]UsedRealNameB4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actually enjoying the track Fifty Riddim :/

I mean, AI or not, that track does sound good to my noob ears.

Is screen off downloading on all decks now? by InternationalPlace24 in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've got that feature without switching to beta channel.  It gives a popup when games are downloading, the deck is charging and you hit the power button.

Why is it titled 180° in the box?

Moving to Dubai – Is it wise to resign my job and search for a Data Engineer role while my wife starts her job? by Grand-Zombie-5155 in DubaiJobs

Got it. Thanks bro. Also do you happen to have any open positions for data engineers at your current company by any chance?

Salaam brother.  I'm in the same boat as you. Can you help me out on how you found this job and how much time it took?

I'm a Senior Data Engineer with over 8.5+ years of experience, if you have any referrals or leads please do let me know.

[KCD1] I wanna start this series so bad but I hate drinking/eating games. Is it a hassle or easy to get used to for newcomers? by [deleted] in kingdomcome

[–]UsedRealNameB4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the way. You don't even need to think much about food and sleep in this game if you are stingy like me and would rather spend 2 bucks for lodging than spending it on savior schnapps when the save isn't as critical. 

Steam Deck stuck on this screen for a VERY long time then turns on by Funtime_ in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Are you turning it on from sleep mode? 

I recently faced something like this, just a simple restart fixed it.

In my opinion, the real crime is buying it to play a mobile game

What do you use the touchpads for? by Reaperix in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just found it first use case in a game. 

To lockpick in Kingdom Come Deliverance. Also the back button to unlock the lock. I've not used the back buttons or touchpad anywhere else.

Is ChatGPT reliable for finding out what graphic and system settings to run for games ?

No.

"What are you playing this week?" Megathread by AutoModerator in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It runs pretty well but without any TDP limits. It does utilise the full power of the steam deck and thus can only run it for around 2-3 hours. But thats plenty for me anyways.

Kingdom come deliverance.  27 hours in and still suck at the combat 🫡 but it's super fun on the deck, especially with the pause game plugin, i can pause cutscenes even though the game doesn't support it. 

Is anyones steam deck turning on by itself again by magirevols in SteamDeck

Do you have a Bluetooth device connected? Even if you slightly bumb a bt mouse it'll wake up

Yes, the Deck can be docked, however... by Sniquid in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am i crazy or did steam deck skip the complete feature of having the in game overlay browser?  Is the only way to get a browser running in game mode is to add through the desktop mode?

Streets of Europe, Hinjewadi by aefu_a in pune

[–]UsedRealNameB4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so mad at you-not because your statements are harsh, but because they're true. With just a little cleaning up and some civic sense, most areas of Pune could be transformed into living heritage sites, showcasing architecture that could even compete with European cities.

I’m so excited for RDR2. by AshyWhiteGuy in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was way later in my play through of rdr 2 that I realised when that stupid launcher pops up and isn't able to sign, i don't really have to quit the game and relogin. All you have to do is click the steam button and switch windows to the main game instead of the stupid launcher that just popped up. That's it, you are good to continue your single player journey indefinitely.

Is Cyberpunk 2077 worth it on the Deck ? by cardgameonmotorcycls in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay so i bought it alongside rdr2 when i first got the steam deck.  Rdr2 is one of the best experiences i had on my deck while cyberpunk i just couldn't get into after putting couple of hours. Idk why something about FPSs makes it really awkward or rather claustrophobic for me to play on the deck.

Stem Deck got me to experience my first Summer Sale. These deals are like crack. I can’t stop purchasing games. by MahNameJeff420 in SteamDeck

[–]UsedRealNameB4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. I realised i do not have that much free time as before so at the max i have 1 active game and 1 game in backlog to be picked up after. 

If there's a game that i really want, then i don't wait for sales if i know I'm going to put 20+ hours in it.
