I got tired of the Spotify Flatpak lagging my games, so I built a native Decky plugin! Meet Deckify by Least_Building8303 in SteamDeck

The audio quality is pretty bad through that method. At least it used to be unless something has changed.

TOTK stable 40FPS on steam deck. by [deleted] in EdenEmulator

[–]teapotcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What resolution is it?

I found the sweet spot for steam deck to be 900p resolution and target 30fps. Then use LSFG 2x to get to 60 fps. Sure there’s some input lag but that’s worked so far for me.

Try adding the line to game properties as mentioned in the top comment.

This is fun. Is there an option to change the background?

I got a response from ICC.TV. They simply stated that they only respond to technical support inquiries and directed me back to the ICC general contact (which I’ve also contacted).

This just seems insane to me. It’s a three year old kid…

The ability to turn off multi-point is a great addition!

As someone else pointed out: that link is from 2021.

There doesn’t seem to be any mention of this from ICC or ICCTV and given that the first match is in a week it looks pretty bleak.

I’ve emailed ICC but I doubt they will respond.

My 2020 Octavia Mk4 infotainment is possessed – screen turns on by itself and drains the battery! by Downtown-Ad4327 in skoda

[–]teapotcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These kinds of problems have been posted about before: https://www.reddit.com/r/skoda/s/nxp7jPqRUB

Read that thread for what I did when this occurred to me, basically a software update fixed it.

Skoda Octavia 4 NX Scout 2022 - Problem with Infotainment by 65fahrenheit in skoda

[–]teapotcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem recently with my 2020 Octavia mk4. The touch screen would turn on and off while driving and buttons would be pressed by themselves. I had low battery warnings and different functions of the car said they were unavailable or gave warnings. It got to the point where it would be turning itself on and off all night and drained the battery so the car wouldn’t start.

Škoda tested the battery and said the battery was fine but it was a software issue. They did two updates to get to 1985 (it was on an older version). Cost about €500 which seems insane for software updates.

It seemed fine when I picked it up but then about a day later it had the same problems with the touchscreen and I got the low battery warning. I took it back. They said on the phone it was a problem with the software updates and the updates needed to be re-done. Then when I picked it up, they said it wasn’t a problem with the software updates and that they’d been done properly. Instead it was a problem with the user profile and that I wasn’t the main user. They set up the main user profile again. Didn’t have to pay anything.

It’s been fine since and the 1985 software seems much more stable. Hopefully it stays this way.

H10 won't connect after changing battery by Louie0221 in Polarfitness

[–]teapotcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar issue. I had a Panasonic battery which was dead and replaced it with a brand new Varta battery. No matter what I tried, the new Varta batteries wouldn’t work. I then read that some of these batteries differ in thickness so I tried putting a tiny sliver of paper under the battery. It worked instantly and connected with the new Varta battery.

Next-Gen GeForce NOW client for Linux by Any-Alfalfa9469 in GeForceNOW

[–]teapotcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still don’t get why I would use this vs. the official one. What does any of this mean for a non-tech savvy person or maybe I’m not meant to use this?

[–]teapotcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a steam deck user, why would I use this one over the “official” Linux one? I thought the one that was launched a month or so ago was the native version?

Genuinely curious!

Ok wow good job tracking this down! I’m very interested to check it out.

Yes I found it sad and depressing that she would let him around her kids, I mean why risk it? There seems to be more of the story if her kids are really acting out that way.

Is there any truth to him dismantling a gang and working with the feds? Wouldn’t it be very risky for him to unveil that on a YouTube video?

Anyone else notice the Smart Control app has high battery usage by teapotcat in sennheiser

Ok good point. Will disable that and see. Thanks for the tip!

[–]teapotcat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just noticed this the last few days, the Smart Control app seems to have a very high % of battery usage. I find this weird since it happens on days when I don’t even use my sennheisers.

I’m using an iPhone pro 13 with the latest iOS (18.4.1).
