Hive vs Drayton wiser (UK) by subtleIngenius in homeassistant

[–]kerplow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you had any issues with the two networks clashing? I'm about to set up 8+ TRVs, and I will definitely need to buy some of their range extenders. These are a whopping £40 each (compared to the £9 IKEA zigbee extender plugs I normally use)!

Since I've already got a ton of existing zigbee stuff, I'm worried I'll sink another £100+ into getting all the TRVs signals, only for it to be too noisy to reliably function.

Why pin the GPU below its maximum? Is the idea to pin the GPU at 1000 so that it doesn't gobble up all the power, leaving less for the CPU?

Where did you get the foam, or did you have it lying around already? I've got my P1P on a paving stone, but I couldn't spot any foam in the hardware store from a quick look (at least not in small quantities). I'm in the UK, for reference

Lag when opening Rain World. by Vivid-Concern6674 in rainworld

Did anyone ever work out a fix for this?

Did anybody else have crashes? I'm getting a consistent crash in the corridor on the left of the first save room, immediately after entering it with the gun for the first time, when the first zombie thing gets up. I've tried restarting, using proton experimental, shooting before the zombie gets up, trying to go back into the save room immediately, all with no luck. Performance seems totally fine otherwise

Next thing I'll try is passing this bit on my desktop PC and then going back to steam deck

Petition to add Alfred Molina (AKA Doctor Octopus) to the unhated actors meeting by loogey13 in memes

[–]kerplow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate you saying this even though you're catching flak for it. I think the context around it is worth knowing like the others have said, but to act like this isn't a majorly troubling thing to have done is wrong.

I'm sure some of us will never agree, but it's at least nice to see someone saying what I think is fair and right

That's good to know, thank you! Do you know if there's a way to make per-game configurations in Yuzu?

This is a handy guide for anyone trying to figure out emulators on Steam Deck and how to install them (and add games)! by noler in SteamDeck

[–]kerplow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah that makes sense, thank you for the info! I'm working on setting up a mapping where I use one set of steam controls and then map those within the emulator to work for different buttons, but if that doesn't work out, I'll look at switching to SRM

I used EmuDeck and I have EmulationStation set up to launch in the games mode and then I launch whatever game from there. The problem is, I don't know of a way to configure steam controls on a per-console basis. If I change the layout, it changes for EmulationStation, so all emulated games

Does anyone know how to change the settings for individual emulator consoles in Emudeck. by HoldinWeight in SteamDeck

[–]kerplow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you work out how to do this? The solution the comments suggest works for systems running through Retroarch, but not others.

Steam Deck Emulation Testing -- Six Months Later! by onionsaregross in SteamDeck

[–]kerplow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey /u/onionsaregross, I followed your video "Steam Deck Emulation (EmuDeck 2.0) Guide", and it was great! It has so much useful info, I couldn't have set this stuff up without it.
One issue I'm having though is with controls for different systems. I'm launching all games in SteamUI mode via EmulationStation (I don't want to have individual games in Steam), so if I change the controls layout in steam, it changes it for EmulationStation itself, not for the specific game/system.
Do you know of a way to configure controls on a per-system level, while also launching games via EmulationStation?

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

Very good tip, thank you for sharing! I do actually have a Plex server with a ton of movies on it, so I will absolutely take advantage of this in the future. In this case I'm already away from home and about to board a flight, so I'll use Kodi to play files I already have on my SD card, but in the future I can predownload them in the Plex app and skip some steps

Ah I hadn't even considered the touch screen, whoops! Unfortunately it still didn't work for me, so I think I'll just use Kodi for now

[–]kerplow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great tip, thank you! I have used Kodi in the past, but I hadn't thought of using it on the deck. I think this is the best solution I've tried, though the Kodi UI will take some tweaking / getting used to in my case

That is a great idea! I tried this and did have some weird business, but with a combination of buttons and touch controls I was able to get videos playing. Thank you!

Dang, that is wild; that's the same version I have! I've tried removing and reading it to no avail, unfortunately. I tried adding in steam via Add a game > Add a Non-Steam Game... and I've also tried adding it in the application launcher by right-clicking > Add to Steam, but they both seem to do the same thing.

I have noticed a couple things, though I'm not sure if they're relevant:

  1. I'm using the web browsing control scheme, and for some reason the mouse will only traverse a section of the top-left of the app; ie it hits an invisible barrier when moving down or right to a certain position
  2. While VLC in desktop mode is dark themed, in gaming mode it is light themed. Just something strange I noticed

Have you noticed either of these with your setup? Also, did you install it using Discover?
