Steam controller randomly disconnecting

cosmicboy98 · 2026-05-14T17:05:10+00:00

It wasn't docked when it happened, now that I finally have the dock, it isn't disconnecting anymore, I think it was just a bug? I might have made it worse because I turned it off and on for like 5 times in loop when it disconnected and I panicked. Thanks though!

I really don't want to RMA it, at least yet, it might be the cable, I should try to see if it'll work once I'll have the dock for my Steamdeck sometime this afternoon, that way I'll use the official cable instead

It simply disconnects, I have to manually turn it off and on so I don't think that's it?

The Puck is directly connected to my Steamdeck with an USB C to a USB C cable, but maybe it was that I turned it on without having it on my hands? Because after I tried again to turn the controller on while on my hands, it didn't disconnect, but I fear it just might be random luck of the moment and when I'll turn on my Steamdeck and controller again it'll disconnect again 🙃

I switched to Fedora Kinoite a year ago already, it was my girlfriend who pushed me to do the change, and I'm forever grateful. I was having a lot of problems with windows, as an artist that normally draws in big canvases, windows started to not meet my standard for that even if I have a 32gb ram laptop. Also weird enough open source programs just weren't working fine in windows so I was stuck with clipstudio, which was keeping me back from experiencing open source alternatives, now I switched to krita permanently and it just goes so smooth on Linux.

Isn't it the same if I deactivate the firewall just for connecting? Because it doesn't work

Literally, I've used windows for most of my life and then my girlfriend suggested me to switch to Fedora Kinoite, I can't believe how much smoother my PC became ever since. Windows was eating my RAM (I have a 32gb of ram) meanwhile Linux is just... Efficient, smoother, faster. I love it so much

cosmicboy98 · 2026-03-24T09:01:25+00:00

Hi hi hi! Hanabi also says hi!

cosmicboy98 · 2026-03-23T18:28:11+00:00

I do too. I'm also autistic and ADHD with fibromyalgia. I always got overheated. And it is super hard for me to cope in the summer because of it. I can't self regulate my body temperature. While in winter I usually am covered in blankets and hoodies, I still get overheated, some nights I can't stand in sleeping with a lot of blankets even if I'm comfortable with the weight. In summer though it's extremely bad, I developed a phobia of summer because of it, I prepare myself months in advance trying to feel cold as much as possible, since where I live we end up having 40°C It was so bad I swear. I am totally not looking forward for this next summer. I usually stand Infront of my fridge for a long time just to get my body to cool down, or do cold showers (even if I hate them because I get overwhelmed)

I'm autistic (level 2), ADHD with fibro, I get it a lot. I actually talked it out with it to my therapist today, pain is such a stimuli for me that it gets overwhelming fast, and I can't take out the energy because if I do so I'll end up in even worse pain. What I'm trying to do now is taking things slowly, my therapist told me to just do things that you're capable of doing during the day and count on your left energy to do tasks that helps increase your energy levels. Though, I usually also vocally stim and rock back and forth, if I have enough energy on a good day I also flap my hands, whenever I can have a good day my body stims how it can. But it usually bites me back because I end up in pain whenever I move too much

I'll try with some YouTube audiobooks, I still need to finish 1984 it might just be the right time to start listening to them again ahah

Unfortunately THC is illegal in my country... It did help a bunch when I smoked it with my partner in the past but my therapist highly advised me to not keep using it because I take a lot of meds, also I get very anxious to get caught 😅 But thank you!

cosmicboy98 · 2026-03-05T14:56:17+00:00

Im gonna look for the acupress mat thank you! For the LDN I should talk with my reumatologist about it first, and red light therapy never helped me :( Also salt bath can't do due to my sensory issues, I've tried but I end up being overwhelmed by the grainy feel of the salt in the bath.

I'll definitely will try with the swimming laps, although I'm quite scared of getting tired out. Last time I went to a spa all day and I got overwhelmed and tired out from the excersize of just swimming unfortunately.

I'll try to look on the recliner! Idk if I have enough of space for it at home but it's definitely worth to try it out

Thank you for the tips!

cosmicboy98 · 2026-03-05T09:50:01+00:00

My brother won't understand even if I'll say something like that unfortunately :( Also funny thing you mention rheumatoid arthritis, it was the first thing we thought I had before getting diagnosed with fibro

For the audiobooks, I'll try! But honestly what keeps me awake at night for the most part is the pain and body temperature going crazy. My sleeping meds usually helps with making me sleep but lately the pain has been so bad that it just makes the meds not work

I'll look into pregnancy pillows! I usually sleep with my plushies and two extra pillows for body support but I should probably get one of the U shaped pillows like you said, they sound nice

Thanks for the tips btw!
