one sec

Jj0rge I am tempted by the ally since it's on firesale at best buy basically

CharlieBros•1/14/24, 4:50 AM

I know... 400 bucks, if only I had the money... and I lived in the US...

yeah gamescope just outright crashes with just gamescope -fgamescope -f in the steam launch arguments

bdface.•1/14/24, 4:50 AM

before u ask, yes i append %command%%command%

bdface.•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

matt_schwartz•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

Ally vs OLED?

Jj0rge what's the tldr on the screen vs. the deck oled?

Kyle Gospo•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

Deck OLED is the best on the market

Kyle Gospo•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

By far

matt_schwartz•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

agreed

Jj0rge I am tempted by the ally since it's on firesale at best buy basically

Xe•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

the controller is decent, the battery life could be better

Xe•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

the Z1 extreme is a battery piggy

j0rge•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

ah ok, so there is no choice, it must be the deck oled.

Xe•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

however

Xe•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

it's a half decent device

Xe•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

the worst part is windows

j0rge•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

the form factor is what sells me on the ally

Xe•1/14/24, 4:51 AM

i got cyberbullied into putting windows back on my ally to give it a "fair chance"

Kyle Gospo•1/14/24, 4:52 AM

Problem with the ally imo is it doesn't solve a problem

Xe•1/14/24, 4:52 AM

it does solve a problem kyle

matt_schwartz•1/14/24, 4:52 AM

it came out at a good time, that was their main advantage

XXe the worst part is windows

bdface.•1/14/24, 4:52 AM

thats one of the only reasons these devices exist, to try and keep windows leveraged against valve, right?

Kyle Gospo•1/14/24, 4:52 AM

It can run tames better, but games where it matters run worse

j0rge•1/14/24, 4:52 AM

like, if anything you hope ally 2.0 improves what they have, like it has the potential to be a smaller form factor, which I like.

Xe•1/14/24, 4:52 AM

it fills a hype gap in Asus' lineup

Kyle Gospo•1/14/24, 4:52 AM

Ie: GTA V doubles in framerate, but it already ran at 60 on deck

ChaiQiOP•1/14/24, 4:53 AM

Having owned two steam controllers since the final sale: I would probably buy the Deck OLED just because Valve designed the controls

Xe•1/14/24, 4:53 AM

I want to try to use my ally for a crazy idea for a voice controlled AR PC

Kyle Gospo•1/14/24, 4:53 AM

Meanwhile games like Returnal run worse than the deck at native res

Kyle Gospo•1/14/24, 4:53 AM

And despite double the wattage are still under 30

KKyle Gospo Meanwhile games like Returnal run worse than the deck at native res

matt_schwartz•1/14/24, 4:53 AM

don’t even get me started on that fucking nightmare of a port

matt_schwartz•1/14/24, 4:53 AM

which sucks because I love the game

KKyle Gospo Deck OLED is the best on the market

CharlieBros•1/14/24, 4:53 AM

I haven't seen it, probably never will, unless my local furry nerd friend buys it, but cmon, even cheap crappy oleds look so much better (remember pentile?)

bdface.•1/14/24, 4:53 AM

also why is the cursor warmer on x11 than wayland when I turn on a night shifting service?

j0rge•1/14/24, 4:54 AM

yeah that's my biggest problem with the competitors to the deck, they cross the 15W barrier, I don't like that, I have a PC, I want bang for the buck power-wise.

Xe•1/14/24, 4:54 AM

I can't get the Z1 extreme to pull less than 10 watts

Jj0rge yeah that's my biggest problem with the competitors to the deck, they cross the ...

matt_schwartz•1/14/24, 4:54 AM

I’m a little surprised Valve hasn’t shipped HDR in Remote Play yet tbh

Xe•1/14/24, 4:54 AM

it's trivial to get the deck to run at 5 watts

bdface.•1/14/24, 4:54 AM

i'd also like something to play games on, since i got an apple silicon mac from my university

It's sun damage from being left out since the 1980s
