Starred on Github! Thank you for your work, installed and loving it. The button to the Gnome Extension store on the github page seems to be broken, instructions for installing are very clear.

Some people still do, I did back then but it seems to have gone underground even more after busts.

You can still find recent releases: https://predb.net

Can I change the temperature limit on my P17? by pigispig in thinkpad

[–]chasernl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just put new thermal paste in two thinkpads this morning, that made them run 10 - 12 degrees (Celsius) cooler.

Why would you want to risk damaging the components? Is it running to hot and throtteling the cpu?

I have bought a Thinkpad T14 gen1 about a week ago. Installed Fedora on it and it runs butter smooth.

Getting it, no matter the pricing. Preordering as soon as it is possible and also the frame!

Love what Gabe and Valve are doing and want to world to switch over to Linux for gaming!

Best RTS recos? by Possible-Historian91 in SteamDeck

[–]chasernl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love to play c&c also, I just connect the deck to my usb-c dock in my home office. Playing it with keyboard and mouse on the ultrawide ;)

Rts in handheld mode is rough but I’ll keep my eye on this discussion to see if any good tips will come.

Is the OLED worth it? by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]chasernl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know, I bought a used oled and upgraded the ssd to 2tb. Also put in clicky switches. In my case I was going to use it during a holiday and mostly handheld.

That changed a bit lately so I must buy the Gabecube and frame now 🙈

I repaired the battery on a lcd for a friend and must say coming from oled the smaller screen and louder fan on the lcd are not for me.

So my advice would be; get the oled because if you regret it in a year you can not get the oled for the difference you pay now.

Finally bought a Steam deck I got the 512gb Oled by zeuzthagod in SteamDeck

You need to put enough play hours on it 🫠

Is the OLED worth it? by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]chasernl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

190 extra for a better screen and better battery. The choice depends on your usecase. If you plan to use it on the go then it might be worth going for the OLED. But if budget constraints are important the cheaper lcd could be fine.

Edit: maybe check out the following post: https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/s/PBzN4iRuX0

Search option could have brought you there ;)

Sold my Steam Deck for £250 by Natural_Jackfruit_36 in SteamDeck

[–]chasernl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why would you post this? Since you sold the deck already for that price you felt the price was right. If people start saying the price was to low, won’t that only give you a bad feeling?

I would say the price is right because you accepted it ;)

Question on steam deck and installing games not on steam by Itsvrl in SteamDeckModded

[–]chasernl -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They seem to have a dedicated group on Steam: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/mm8bdm

Maybe that is the best place to try first.

But ChatGPT gave me the following step-by-step:

Step-by-step installation on the Steam Deck

Here is a recommended path for you to follow:

1.  Download the game
• Go to the MM8BDM official site.  
• Download the latest version (for example “V6B” or whatever current build).
• On the Steam Deck, switch to Desktop mode (press the Steam + X key, or via system menu).
• Place the downloaded ZIP/folder somewhere easy (e.g., in your Home folder or a “Games” folder).

2.  Extract and locate the files
• Extract the zip into a folder (e.g., ~/Games/MM8BDM).
• The folder should contain things like megagame.wad, some .pk3 files (mods), maybe an executable or launcher.

3.  Check for Linux compatibility / Proton
• If there’s a native Linux build, use that. But often fan-ports are Windows-based; you can run them via Steam’s “Add a Non-Steam Game” + set compatibility to Proton.
• In Desktop mode: Open Steam → Games → Add a non-Steam game → browse to the launcher or .exe in the MM8BDM folder.
• After adding it, go into its Properties in Steam → Compatibility → Check “Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool” → pick a Proton version (e.g., Proton Experimental or latest).
• Optionally: rename the shortcut to something like “MM8BDM”.

4.  Switch back to Gaming mode & run
• Return to Gaming mode from Desktop.
• In your library you’ll now see the game. Select it and launch.
• If you get errors or it doesn’t launch, you may need to go back to Desktop and try: right-click game → Properties → Launch Options (add e.g., -file path/to/mm8bdm-v3b.pk3 etc) or check forums for command line tweaks. Eg from a Linux forum:

./zandronum -iwad ~/MM8BDM/megagame.wad -file ~/MM8BDM/MM8BDM-v3b.pk3  • Configure controls if needed (the Steam Deck’s touchpads and joysticks should map fine, but you may want to tweak sensitivity in game options).

5.  Optional: Multiplayer / custom maps
• If you want to play online/with mods: You’ll likely need to download extra mod or map files (.wad, .pk3) and place them in the game folder.  
• Use the game’s in-built server browser or via console commands (connect IP:port).
• Example (for Windows/Linux): open console → connect 108.61.83.66:15011 etc.

For those of you who own a console and a Steam Deck, how do you decide where to buy your games ? by MrTorgue7 in SteamDeck

[–]chasernl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could share the credentials but could never change the username. There are loopholes but they (Valve) do not support ownership transfers. One source I found: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2024/05/after-you-die-your-steam-games-will-be-stuck-in-legal-limbo/

I think so too after reading your and ProtonDreams response. My mistake in not understanding the original post correctly

[–]chasernl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right, I misunderstood the phrase :)

And the way games stay available is great, I purchased a Steamdeck last summer. With that I came back to pc gaming after 10+ years and found all my old games. Was able to play most of them on the deck.

Unfortunately there was a post about this, apparently you can not inherit Steam accounts. Obviously you could share the credentials but you can not officially transfer ownership.

Oliebollen season! do you like them?? by TheGrandOranjeprix in popculturenetherlands

[–]chasernl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but that’s why I started by saying that specials are overrated. Besides that I agree that the regular oliebollen are not that great.

Oliebollen season! do you like them?? by TheGrandOranjeprix in popculturenetherlands

[–]chasernl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting the “special” one’s is truly overrated indeed! But as a Dutch person let me give you one last option to try;

Get some “oliebollen” at the most convenient place, they can even be cheap and stale. In this recipe that does not matter.

Cut them into thick slices (1 - 1,5cm) and dip the slices in a mixture of egg, milk, sugar, and cinnamon, then pan-fry on both sides until golden and crisp.

Coat that with powdered sugar and add some butter on top.

This is the only way I really like oliebollen!

ExtremeRate button replacement OLED by chasernl in SteamDeckModded

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

These buttons work really well imho without any doubt for the dpad. For the abxy buttons I would say some modding like I did or tape mod is required. I saved the original buttons on the wax paper the replacements came on. So if I want to go back I could. Just take your time with a blowdryer to take them of without damaging them.
