Oh I forgot about WiFi 6E. Suuuuuper good for streaming from your PC.

Graphically intense games can be good too, especially in bed, streaming from a PC in the other room.

An etched screen protector can help, but isn’t as nice as the native etched glass. The underlying screen is the same OLED as the 512GB, I believe.

The OLED model is also just better. Got a few minor upgrades other than the screen. Faster RAM, better battery life, slightly lighter. Maybe some other changes.

You can get an etched glass screen protector that emulates the effect. The one I got isn’t as good as the base screen (which is essentially perfect), it has a very small amount of color scrambling if you look really closely due to the nature of the etching, but it’s not bad and I got used to it quickly.

That’s fair, but I can tell you from experience there’s no way it’s going to fall out during the lifetime of that elastic. I say this because it’s mildly annoying to extract it (which, admittedly, isn’t an issue with a dedicated pocket).

I think not having room for the charger is a valid complaint.

It fits great in the elastic-covered spot on the back, especially if you use something like this.

Get the 1TB with the etched screen if you’re considering it. It looks fantastic, and works great when not indoors. Like, in a car or airplane for example. I was debating between it and the 512GB because I often prefer a glossy screen, but the effect is small yet mighty.

Also, get Moonlight on your Steam Deck and Apollo on your PC. You can stream games from your PC with Apollo to Moonlight at much higher quality than Steam’s own streaming system. I send 1440p to my deck so after chroma subsampling I get fully defined 1280x720 pixels. It looks significantly better than just sending 1280x720 or 1280x800 to the Deck.

And finally, pick up Geometry Wars 3. It’s like the perfect pick-up-and-put-down game for the Deck.

I dunno, if it were Hbomberguy talking about YouTube plagiarism for four hours I’d watch it.

Sounds like Linus Torvalds’s code review comments got into the training data.

She herself refers to how she played a “nuke-ular psychiatrist in a James Bonk movie” in the episode of 30 Rock where she and Tracy are leading a protest of NBC by their fellow idiots. 🤣

Some highlights from that episode.

Johnny was a real good kid,
But now he is no more.
What he thought was H₂O
Was H₂SO₄.

the end being neigh and all

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him, and the horse said, “the end is neigh!”

(Neigh is what a horse says. The end is nigh. 😉)
