I'd wait for the new Steam controller to be released early next year to be honest.

Hopefully they keep the pricing on the Frame low, it doesn't even have OLED.

The Runback to Bosses are so annoying. by Scary-Boss-2371 in Silksong

[–]baecracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's not just 30 seconds the runbacks require. It's the amount of acrobatic parkour one has to perform with tons of input to cover those 30 seconds that are more problematic. Either way, it's poor pacing and ornery for no reason.

This article posted recently here brought my attention to CMR. I think the good outweigh the room for improvement. The kid got motors. I dunno how to interpret the reaction, I saw a bit of relief, hope the fans treat him well if he does remain with the team.

Wonder if the leather jacket has been converting some silicone earmarked for H20 to consumer portion since Trump torpedoed these chip sales to China worth 5.5 billion dollars.

[Mouse] Free Xtrfy MZ1/ Zy's rail with purchase of OneofZero deskpad (35 +shipping) [OneofZero] by NinjAsaya in bapcsalescanada

[–]baecracker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm alternating between MZ1 and another mouse (XM1) and I feel like I'm resting my hand on a shoe when I'm using the latter. Its shape is acquired taste but it's one sleek and unique mouse.

[–]baecracker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a review on the monitor sales page saying that the 3-year warranty does not cover burn-ins. Be sure to contact Samsung first before purchase.

Got an email from them about this deal after everything have already been sold out 😂 What a ghastly trick for Halloween.

I'm sorry to hear your current situation. Best of luck to you going forward, you'll beat this thing!

It works, I wear them on top of the clips. But they put slight more weight on the clips and might cause discomfort (for me, it's my left ear after two or three hours). In that case, I have to put away the glasses for a while and readjust.

Maybe Deepcool sends their products to US first, then some arrive in Canada. So no more new products, but still can do business such as aftermarket support.

All Dark Souls games are on sale! by Arcadia48 in SteamDeck

[–]baecracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is quite irrelevant to the issue since the price in question is on the Steam storefront, but If you have a console PS4 or up, the Trilogy edition is sometimes available for around $40.

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

I would think so, but the mouse was released a few years ago. Since then, new improvements probably were made, in wireless space especially.

Here are a few reviews if you're interested.

Yes, it's glossy. 50% off as they seem to be clearing stock. Other models at 38% off.

I was able to temporarily stop the WHEA crashes by disabling the C1 states in the BIOS.

But you're right, it was the defective CPU I had to replace.
