I like how everyone is giving shit to the dude for "not being there for his wife," because I remember the OG post from Reddit where OP and his wife were explaining that it was cool, she said it was okay and even encouraged it, and was unconscious most of the time during recovery anyway.

I don't even think the windows on steam deck part is even from the OG, but maybe I just missed that in the comments.

Windows on steam deck

Explains the behavior lmao

[–] amon@lemmy.world 1 points 8 minutes ago

Windows on steam deck Is blasphemy

[–] Muaddib@sopuli.xyz 26 points 1 hour ago

Who the hell puts Windows on a Steam Deck? What a loser

Oh and he's not being present with his wife

[–] the_q@lemm.ee 27 points 2 hours ago

Lol Windows.

[–] pappabosley@lemm.ee 17 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Hoping he means just for the labour, not the whole 9 months

[–] amon@lemmy.world 1 points 8 minutes ago

Bro probably could

[–] Shameless@lemmy.world 52 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

Why would anyone brag about any of this. His poor partner.

[–] BigPotato@lemmy.world 29 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

I can see bringing the Deck, like you might be sitting there for at least 24 hours, you don't need to be sitting there holding their hand the whole time...

But the keyboard? The mouse? The HEADPHONES? It's not like you're in an extended stay. You're getting that baby out and going. You don't need all that.

[–] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 18 minutes ago

I mean the headphones make much more sense than the keyboard and mouse imo.

[–] modifier@lemmy.ca 29 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Wait wait wait, WINDOWS installed?

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 9 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

To be fair, a lot of anticheat tools don't play nicely with Linux.

[–] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 2 points 37 minutes ago

To be fair none of the games where their AC blocks linux are worth playing anyway.

[–] theunknownmuncher@lemmy.world 9 points 3 hours ago

A few, not a lot, and not on any games worth playing

[–] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 15 points 4 hours ago

Just a cavalcade of poor decisions.

[–] EndofLife@feddit.org 8 points 5 hours ago

Right... I hope this isn't the begining of a shitty broken home and the birth of lost soul.

[–] TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Le setup. I love these guys posting their balls like this

[–] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 253 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

That poor woman

Having to deal with a guy who uses windows on his Steam deck

[–] Jyek@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Can't play tarkov on steam deck without windows or moonlight and moonlight over hospital wifi would be worse than tarkov natively over hospital wifi.

[–] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 1 points 36 minutes ago

You can. I just played until level 36 and uninstalled.

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 43 points 7 hours ago

I would hope she would have known about his red flags before the baby lolol

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 62 points 7 hours ago

The kind of guy who installs Windows on his steam deck is the same kind of guy who won't let his wife get an epidural.

[–] Twinklebreeze@lemmy.world 157 points 9 hours ago (5 children)

What idiot would install windows on a steam deck. Defeats the whole point.

[–] felixwhynot@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Guessing that his game of choice didn’t work on Steam OS

That said I wonder about the frame rate—this game is notoriously demanding/heavy AFAIK

[–] B312@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 12 minutes ago) (1 children)

~~It’s probably because he’s playing tarkov~~ idk

[–] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 1 points 35 minutes ago (1 children)
[–] B312@lemmy.world 1 points 12 minutes ago

Ah I assumed it was one of those multiplayer games that had an anti cheat which made the game not work on Linux.

[–] StitchIsABitch@lemmy.world 94 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

The kind of idiot that boasts about "system tweaks" and "audiophile headphones".

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 57 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

His "audiophile" colleagues would also murder him for plugging them into a 20 cent onboard DAC chip and still calling it an audiophile setup

[–] Estebiu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 7 hours ago

tbh the decks dac is surprisingly good- at least with my planar IEMs

[–] jacksilver@lemmy.world 17 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

I did install windows on a microsd to play some online games with my steamdeck. It's a so-so experience, but at least means you can literally play anything on the steamdeck.

[–] nichtburningturtle@feddit.org 18 points 9 hours ago

But at what cost!

[–] WhiteBurrito@lemmy.world -3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Just get an ROG Ally at that point

[–] jacksilver@lemmy.world 8 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

SteamOS is still the main OS. I've just got a microsd for dual booting. I feel like a ROG Ally would be a downgrade at that point.

[–] WhiteBurrito@lemmy.world 0 points 5 hours ago

Dual boot Bazzite and windows(?)

[–] Comrade_Spood@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 hours ago

My thoughts exactly

[–] pastel_de_airfryer@lemmy.eco.br 27 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

If only there was a device that combined the Steam Deck with a keyboard and a 14" monitor. Like a Steam Deck that is designed to sit on top of your lap....

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 24 points 7 hours ago

Pfft next thing you'll tell me is that it'll "fold up" when you're done with it, get real pal your head is in the clouds lmao

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 39 points 8 hours ago

He's didn't bring a second controller. Divorce.

[–] Marty_TF@lemmy.zip 31 points 7 hours ago

installs windows, instantly requires system tweaks and performance upgrades.

[–] Dragonfruit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 52 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

I'm no audio expert, but I feel like "audiophile headphones" and "headphones you can power directly from a steam deck" are probably mutually exclusive

[–] moonburster@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I use planar headphones which are not too bad to drive, but most of the time I need some extra power. The deck actually is capable of blowing my eardrums out still

[–] SomGye@dormi.zone 24 points 8 hours ago

Not necessarily, some high-end headphones manage to have a low resistance and high sensitivity combo and are easy to "drive" without a dedicated amp.

[–] HeyJoe@lemmy.world 8 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

This is the kind of setup that once it's complete you smile at how awesome it is, then pack it up because you don't know what you even want to play and most of the games I do I wanna play i wanna play on a better monitor.

[–] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 2 points 34 minutes ago

And then you realize you should propably spend time with your wife who is about to go through some of the worst experiences in life of having a baby and dealing with all the shit afterwards.

[–] mesamunefire@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Not my ideal setup but happy he's happy.
