I did the fix today, with a small strip of electric tape folded in 2. Hopefully it holds long enough to get to the Steam Deck 2 🤞

I am aware, thanks. I did the whole noisy fan replacement a year ago 😁 https://sh.itjust.works/post/20372232 That worked really well and I am glad I did it.

Thanks for giving me hope for a “light” fix. How long did that hold until your unrelated RMA ?

Maybe if I could find an adequate one, but it’s likely to be expensive and they could as well break it for good.

Do you mean this part [https://www.ifixit.com/en-eu/products/steam-deck-power-button] ? I do not see how this would fix my issue since this does not include the switch, only the plastic button.

I usually run the Fortified armor passive to help survive the rocket spam. Against the Incineration Corps, it is as you surmised the Inflammable passive that will grant the most survivability. Since you do not have any armor with it, you might be able to fall back on the Acclimated passive. If you have neither, well, you will need to be very quick on the dive.

Enshittification ahoy !

Hey maybe this update will bring the visual fidelity level on PC back to the pre-Quest versions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVgxk0ytTyI

I tried it out. The current lack of BLE support excludes a fair number of controllers (Steam Controller, Xbox Series Controller amongst them). Waking with a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller works but getting the controller to properly connect after that is finnicky, oddly enough.

Prince of Persia The Lost Crown looks like a banger, but I am unwilling to spend any amount money on it until Ubi gets the memo and strips Denuvo from it (at least outside of the launch window).

The genre is ASS games. Can’t go wrong with that.

If you want no DRM, you are basically only going to get your games from GOG.

Unfortunately, the company is now empty of employees, so the road ahead will be entirely different.

Not much of a studio the guy bought back. Just a name and some IP rights maybe.

The Sniper Elite series is basically nazi-killing porn. Those won’t let you down, especially if you enjoy unplanned testicular detonations happening to nazis of any kind.

The people laid off in 2023 (no less than 16% of the company’s headcount) might have opinions upon hearing that.

Most GitS installments are unconnected. The only actuel sequel to the original movie is the followup movie “Innocence” which is a very different beast. You can find a complete relation graph on AniDB.

My recommendation would be to watch the “Standalone Complex” series (2 seasons + 1 special) from the early 2000’s. It’s top tier even though the CG does show its age. Then if you want more you could go ahead and watch the “Arise” tv show from 2015, not bad but not as good as SAC.

I would strongly advise against watching the recent Netflix-produced SAC_2045 : it’s painfully bad and ugly-looking.

Epic actually financed Remedy’s development of the game, as opposed to swooping in at the last minute to offer a timed-exclusivity deal. In that case I was fine buying the game on their platform if it meant the game got to exist at all. After all I do not expect Valve to sell their games on another platform than their own.

Don’t get me wrong: I’d rather the game was sold on Steam, or even better, DRM-less on GOG. I did wait for a number of those timed exclusives to find their way on Steam or other stores (Borderlands 3, Kena, Journey, Control, Hades, etc). It’s a shame that so many people will not get to experience AW2 because of its delivery platform, because it’s a damn unique game.

Il faut du matériel spécialisé pour tailler les verres (ce que vendent des fabricants comme Essilor Instruments, Nidek, Briot).

Tu peux aller chez un opticien équipé (s’il propose des “lunettes en 1h” par exemple) et lui donner ta monture. Tant que ta monture tient dans un gabarit pas trop exotique, il pourra la faire lire à un “lecteur de monture” (ce genre de machine: https://www.essilor-instruments.com/e-tess/).
