  • Idk, I just don't see the use case

  • Well, no. That's why they used custom parts. I'd rather have a slightly larger machine that I can actually maintain though.

    Also why are you so confident devs will "optimize" for the steam deck? That's just wishful thinking and I highly doubt it would happen. I also don't know what you're talking about when you mention "software support". Every pc component I've bough has had software support from its manufacturer.

    There's not even a cost advantage. We don't know the price but valve already said that it should cost about the same as building a similar pc.

  • So my original point about Stremio itself was correct I guess. Most common users that have no idea what debrid is (like me until 24hs ago xd) will leech torrents and never seed them. That kinda sucks, big time.

  • It's still bad though and it will still lead to a dying torrent.

  • The settings are optimized, not the game itself. There's quite a big difference between those two. Why are you assuming that there would be special versions of games for the steam machine if there aren't any for the steam deck?

    And no, if I tell you that I've never used a steam deck preset, it's because I haven't. I always tweak the settings myself or at the very least check them.

  • Wait, so if I get this right, stremio has nothing to do with debrid on its own. So if you just use Stremio, as is, you are leeching a torrent you don't seed?

  • Caching a torrent requires downloading, no? What guarantee do you have that they're seeding that leech?

  • And if only that machine could use OEM parts so that people could upgrade and fix it 🤔

  • So you're telling me that they're offering a paid service for free. That makes me trust and want to use it even less.

    EDIT: Turns out that stremoo doesn't use debrid. That's something a stremio user can configure. By default, you do leech torrents and never seed then.

  • You can just buy a steam controller, hdmi cec is minor feature imo and I'm not really sure what you mean about the OS being so much better than "anything else out there". Install bazzite and you're most of the way there.

  • Then don't use torrents. Leeching without seeding is literally how torrents die.

  • That's literally not a selling point imo. Also, I've literally never used a "steamdeck" preset on my steam deck.

  • I'd rather have a machine that's slightly more incovenient to use but that can be upgraded and is also easier (and cheaper) to repair.

    Jump

  • Most developers don't test on my setup and games have always worked fine. Adjusting game settings is not rocket science. Worst case scenario, you use the low/medium/high presets.

  • If you don't want to build it just buy a prebuilt. It's not that hard.

  • You can pretty easily just build an itx system and install linux on it. It might be a bit bigger, yes, but it'd also be easier to fix and upgrade. I believe the only thing you can change in the steam machine is the storage.

  • An Apple fan says they lost '20 years of digital life' after using an Apple gift card

    Jump

  • You don't need to host your "digital life" with Apple for that. Nor do you need to host it in a single place either.

  • Stremio kind of sucks. You're leeching a torrent you'll never seed.
