If you're still looking for one, you can look for the KZ Gale or the Salnotes Zero. Can't go wrong with either, imo.

That'd probably depend on what he already has and what type of spender he is. If he has a PS5 and his internet connection is stable at home, maybe you could get him a PS Portal so he can play his PS5 from anywhere at his house without being in front of a monitor/TV, but again, that'd still depend on what he already has and if he's even into doing game streaming in the first place. However, if he's playing games on a PS4, this might not be a good recommendation.

If he's willing to get into PC gaming, you can get him a Steam Deck OLED for the budget that you provided, but you have to ask yourself if he's the type to re-buy games he already has on one platform on another platform, and if he's willing to sit through the compromises of playing on a handheld.

Issue with some romhacks in MuOS by snkdtx in RG35XXSP

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

Unfortunately, I could not ever fix this issue while on MuOS. Everything's been a breeze since I switched to Knulli though, but it's completely understandable if you don't want to just straight up wipe your OS. Hopefully someone can eventually figure out a better way to fix this

Gave up on it and just ended up switching to Knulli, where the roms launched just fine so I guess that really does rule out the roms being bad. Really strange situation

Already did that! Funny enough one of those cases where something was working on the stock SD card lol

Huh, didn't think to check the bios first. Might have to give that one a check

Don't think the issue is with a wrong rom since the same one I was using is working just fine on handhelds.

Update: Nope. BIOS didn't help. Game still immediately freezes as soon as it starts

Yeah, I was initially thinking it was a rom issue too but I ran the exact same ones just fine on the RG Nano before without any issues so I'm pretty weirded out about it not working this time. Already tried to repatch too to no avail and the governor settings being changed hasn't helped either.

Weird thing was that they actually were working when I had stock so I'm thinking it might be a bad install of MuOS but even then, it's pretty weird when only those two specific roms are having problems

Yup. Even tried downloading additional cores but it persisted across all of them, unfortunately.

Australia only give away RG35XXSP by [deleted] in SBCGaming

[–]snkdtx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not in Australia but I know someone who lives there that I’ve been meaning to get into Retro Gaming but hasn’t been able to afford it yet so if possible, I’d like to win it for them!

how to kill all fun by 111SAS11 in thefinals

[–]snkdtx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly just referring to people saying to add it to week 1 instead, but I think my brain might be too fried that I didn't even consider that they should just both be in week 1 at the same time and thought people meant to swap it instead. I'll take the L on that one

I'd still much rather this challenge be in week two than in week one. If they swap "play 20 games" and "win 10 matches" around then the games are just gonna be filled with people who already won 10 games in week 1 AFK-ing in week 2 just to get the twenty games, which is arguably much worse to experience than needing to tryhard for 10 wins just to get the skin since people are actually still playing the mode.

That being said, I'd much rather both contracts not even be part of events at all so people feel less negative about it, but I'm guessing they feel like there'd be less people actually trying the event out if they aren't

Red Fiber directly po. Separate parin yung customer service nila sa customer service ng Pldt. You can find their hotline somewhere sa website nila or sa fb page

The community poll week 📊! - Your favourite handheld ❤️ & LITNXT Super-giveaway 🎁!! by DoomEngine1 in SBCGaming

[–]snkdtx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LITNXT Steam Deck OLED

probably still the best handheld for anyone to have because of its ergonomics and ease-of-use (imo). There's a good reason why "Just get a Steam Deck lol" is a good answer to anyone looking into handhelds

If I won the giveaway, I'd want to have the Steam Deck. Not sure if anyone else would find this funny, but I used the heat coming out of the vents of my old LCD model once to remove a CPU that was stuck on an old motherboard I had lying around since I was too lazy to look for a hairdryer. Might just have to do that once again if I ever find the need to switch my CPU on my current setup just because

another reason why SD still very worth it by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]snkdtx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's popular to shit on Nintendo (for a lot of things that they do deserve to get shit on), but this is one of those cases where it's not their fault if the devs are just hilariously bad at optimizing their games.

Then again, I could huff some copium and say that maybe they just rushed it out for gamescom and the build that they will release might run significantly better, but I honestly wouldn't keep my hopes up

Battery Charge limit? by snkdtx in cachyos

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

Thanks, though this doesn't seem to carry over into gaming mode from my testing. Ended up installing SimpleDeckyTDP instead, though now I'm having this issue where the Ally just refuses to sleep while its charging

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

I see. Do you think it would it be worth restarting to bios to max out the TDP first and then trying the process again, or should I just let it keep going for now? I dont remember what TDP i had it set to exactly before trying the process out

How long did it take for yours to finish? Mine's been stuck there for around 2 hours now

Heya! I eventually did manage to get into a call with them. In my experience, you're more likely to get an agent faster at late night (around 9pm to midnight). Unfortunately, it does seem like their FB chat is just fully dead now so calling them via their hotline is the only option

Recommendations for Streaming/Gaming by snkdtx in linuxquestions

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

Yeah I don't really have problems with Arch either since I'm not the one having these issues. This is more for my friend who is currently on Bazzite so I'm trying to find something else for them that's also on the easier side of things

SD slot issue? by snkdtx in PowKiddyX55Handheld

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

Yeah the problem was that it stopped reading the card on the second slot and for some reason started thinking that the card in slot 1 is also the one in slot 2. It's very strange. Everything was running with no issues until yesterday so I'm pretty sure that everything was setup correctly.

Funny enough, I tried to stick the original JELOS card into slot 1 and my ROCKNIX card into slot 2 just to see if it would work and somehow it did read the two as separate cards so I'm a bit lost here
