Despite including a numpad like the Intellivision controller, the GameStation Go doesn’t currently include any games from Atari’s recently purchased Intellivision library. But [YouTube reviewer who was hands-on at CES] GenXGrownUp says including those titles—alongside Atari Lynx and Jaguar games—is not “off the table yet” for the final release.
I only know of the Atari Lynx from reading about the history of Chip’s Challenge but I’d be interested in seeing that.
I think the size may have more to do with the team not splitting up the Unreal build paks. Haven’t checked how well it’s actually split up, but I can say that changing even one small thing could result in a giant update if that build has like one pak file with all the things in it. There are ways to configure it in the build but it’s not a magic toggle either. Worked with a studio handing off UE builds before that didn’t build the game in a split friendly way and it made every upload to S3 take forever cause there were only like two really giant paks.
Also makes me wonder, does Steam not do diff patch style updates for changes within individual files? If not, that could save a ton of bandwidth.
That piece of shit doesn’t have rules anymore. He bought a seat at the table, and he’s going to do whatever he pleases, and I’m betting the rest of us can get fucked if we don’t like it. I hate this America.
I have a Steam Deck and love it… But part of me really likes the idea of the Pocket (not necessarily the aluminum one). It’s rough, cuz I’ve never gotten into FPGA stuff before, and this run is going to be a one-time thing. I guess I’ll hold off until the regular plastic ones are available again?
Specifically the form factor. I have a lot of nostalgia for the GBC and SP, and the smaller size means it’s much easier to carry and whip out while traveling. Currently, my Steam Deck is used for when I’m on a long (6+ hours) flight or when I’m staying somewhere for a weekend. I don’t feel great about bringing it out while taking a bus or train, and it’s a bit much to bring out while sitting at an airport gate for 45 minutes.
That being said, I would hate to split all my saves and progress between the two systems, so maybe I’ll just remain on the Deck.
Interesting take, I think my Deck is a great size and it easily fits in my shoulder bag, I bring it everywhere. Don’t have a want for anything smaller honestly, it feels so good in my hands, anything smaller just gives me hand aches after a bit. But I can understand your perspective.
I’m a shorter dude (5’8"), so while I’m in love with my Steam Deck, it’s definitely a little much for me sometimes. Heavy to hold up, and I carry it in the OEM case. That being said, I’m a HUGE fan of the new case and basically only use the inner case, leaving the outer shell at home.
When they came out with the OLED (and the special edition) instead of giving the regular shell, it was 2 shells. 1 thinner one that’s a bit thicker than the deck, and then the big one with a handle and the elastic covering a space to carry the charger. The small one actually velcros into the big case.
In my previous comment I mentioned the OLED LE, that stands for the OLED Limited Edition you mentioned. And no, there’s no inner case I somehow missed. It’s just the one large one.
RIP my impulsivity and FOMO. Ordered a black one. Though I may have an out, since my credit card company flagged it as fraud and said they cancelled the transaction.
Negative 290f. Little past jacket weather. Will they have to stick a radioactive isotope in the thing to keep the batteries warm, I guess? Seems like a good and hard mission, right there. I want a picture of weatherproof methane aliens, damn it.
Odds are they’re using an RTG to power it anyways. Titan actually has a much thicker atmosphere than even earth and it’s much farther away from the sun as well so solar isn’t going to be a good option to power anything they send down.
RTG would need batteries to be getting charged to meet power demands of flight, but I guess that should take care of the batteries being kept warm enough.
Sounds like you’re fed up with Elon and his BS, but I’d like you to take a moment and look around.
This article does not mention Elon. No one in this thread has mentioned Elon, except you. You have linked Elon to this solely because it deals with space, but you are the one propagating that link. You are the one keeping him in the conversation. Maybe, I don’t know, stop fucking talking about him?
It’ll be interesting to see just how little this is in the national news given the location of the path compared to times when the path of an eclipse has gone through major metropolitan areas in the northeast or west coast. Almost an indirect measurement of science education in each area. I didn’t even know there was an eclipse coming until this article.
That sounds more like a normal population density representation. Everyone hears about CA or NY news because they have more significant national and global impacts, through number of affected people and volume of business. News about the state of Arkansas is less visible since it has less population than any of the major cities in the aforementioned states.
Despite that, I’ve seen plenty of coverage specifically because, compared to the 2017 American total solar eclipse, this one is more accessible to a vastly greater population: namely DFW TX and NYC. NYC has a longer drive, but the northeast is an incredibly dense portion of the country.
I can’t wait until we can either get these guys back, or eventually have a manned mission where they can be recovered and stored.They represent such a large achievement for humanity as a whole and symbolizes our desire to advance and learn.
