  • Steam Controller is Out of Stock*

    Jump

  • Well yeah, there are only like two gamers in the EU. I’m talking about America, the center of the universe 🦅

    (Just kidding, I’m glad yall seem to have more stock/lower demand)

    Jump

  • Sounds like my earlier theory was right, they’re using the “out of stock” as a way to limit orders. I finally got my order to go through at about 11:10 PDT.

    Jump

  • Even if I complete the transaction, a message pops up that says “Your order cannot be completed as the item is out of stock”

  • My hope is that the payment processor died because of demand, so they marked it as out of stock to try to work through the queue

    Edit: this seems to be the case. See my other reply

  • Anyone manage to order a controller?

  • It’s been too long ago now, but that sounds right

  • Too late for the Steam Deck

    Too early for Steam Machine 2

    Just in time for Steam Controller 2

  • I think it’s funny just how popular this thing is. How may people do you think are trying to buy it vs scalp it? 90:10? 80:20?

  • Stuck on the payment screen myself. Scrolling Lenny and pressing “Pay Now” every minute or so.

    This is how it was with the OG Steam Deck, too. Took me about 15 minutes of guard dogging to make sure I got one. That was a pretty stressful time, lol

  • Wow, what a complete tool.

  • What's a scam that's so normalized that we don't even realize it's a scam anymore?

    Jump

  • “Your laser printer, which doesn’t use ink, will nag you about buying ink” is a wild sentence.

    You must use Windows and bought an HP laser jet, cause I don’t have that problem. Linux + that Brother laser printer everyone has = tech that isn’t garbage.

  • I just bought a laser printer. Toner never goes bad and it prints faster and better than ink

  • Please suggest me Comedy Based Games

    Jump

  • I’ll echo what some others said about Portal, but here’s a handful of games that I’ve enjoyed for their comedic value:

    What the Golf is pretty funny if you like/hate mini golf.

    Many of the LEGO games have some good humor: Star Wars is my favorite, but LEGO City Undercover was fantastic, too.

    Borderlands 2 has some great comedy, with The Pre-Sequel as a decent runner up.

    The Yakuza games are fantastic; I recommend Yakuza Kiwami for a low-cost entry that allows you to dip your toes in and get the feel for it

    Untitled Goose Game is funny because you make it funny.

  • What music does your dad like?

    Jump

  • Bob Jovi, either Wanted Dead or Alive or Livin’ on a Prayer.

    I like those but I think I prefer Runaway or It’s My Life myself.

  • What’s the most disturbing confession you’ve ever come across on social media?

    Jump

  • “I voted for him three times”

  • How do left-leaning—or not even left-leaning, but pro-choice, pro-life people who don’t care about fornication—who are also Catholics and Christians justify their religion?

    Jump

  • I strongly recommend Dan Maclelan on YouTube, a Biblical scholar who has put hours and hours into research.

    The Bible is a bunch of books written by a bunch of authors who all had their own views of the world, and maliciously or not altered or mistranslated the original text. In some cases, this was to make a thing that they themselves didn’t personally like also something that God also didn’t like.

    Even if you don’t like that answer, we add a lot into the Bible from other texts that aren’t even closely related. Most of our ideas of hell come from Dante’s Divine Comedy, a satire piece about political figures of his era. We also have Lilith, Adam’s “first wife”; and Lucifer being the snake in the garden of Eden, when there’s nothing correlating the two.

    All that to say; the Bible is a book of stories that are likely heavily mythologized, but when you get down to the basics, the New Testament says to love each other and treat each other with respect. Do your best to be the best possible you. And when you look at that interpretation, loving LGBTQ+ people and accepting that sometimes abortions are a necessary evil, the Bible doesn’t seem to be at odds with that.

    For the record, “You shall not take the Lord’s name in vain” does not mean saying “Jesus!” When you stub your toe. It means to not tell people to do thing X or thing Y “because God doesn’t like it”. And the reason for no swearing was to differentiate the “learned man” from the “lowly worker.”

  • What's the best persona for my sick GF to start, she's never tried a persona game but I think she would love them, she's been loving Claire obscure

  • I haven’t beat 3, but I have beat 4 and 5. I think 5 took the good parts of 3 and 4 and put them in one game. If you want her to play all of them, I’d suggest start with 3 and move her way up. If you want her to get hooked right away, I’d probably say 5 Royal.

    And don’t forget Metaphor in the list!

  • I think you’re thinking of the graph that shows how, if wages were tied to worker productivity, the minimum wage would be $80, but if we’re just talking inflation, the minimum wage should be ~$15-18

  • What folders do you make in addition to the default ones ?

  • Reading back, my comment sounds snarky, but I was genuinely trying to be helpful.

    Like what pemptago was describing, instead of symlinking your directories to /home/username/username, you could simply update that file and achieve the same effect, but in a more “official” way that may prove more robust.
