Rthey're also funded by blockchain companies lmao
Ai mean if youre looking for a job lasting for 8-14 months its a solid gig
VLol
VI put the Playtron alpha on this Steam Deck and played a few games on it. Most buttons work, but there are no overlays or touchpad mouse clicks yet.hhd doesn't need to be worried yet
Ahopefully they pay well, if they also allow remote thats good
Ai dont think they can give SF salaries tho
AContributing to Linux gaming by making the percentage on Steam go up by one
AWhere's my job
Athey just used the sd kernel driver
Ktheoretically they should, McMaster is a SF bay native
Ashould rephrase
Agood SF salaries
Ahey if they give 400k to the chimeraos guys im all for it
Akinda think its closer to 150k though if its in person
Afor remote 120. Am european
Kman it really depends on the job out here
Ahow realistic is this range?
KI've seen some in the 250K range including comp
Ain general or for playthingy
Kgeneral SF bay bs
Ayes
Ai might be wrong but i doubt its 250
Aif it is hey thats good stuff right there
Aequity might do something good too
V(Playtron says it’s working on a helper tool that uses AI image recognition to automatically press the right buttons to launch a game properly.)Asay the right words, get vc cash
VThat sounds weird...
Kon the steam deck the single worst part of the experience is using the touchpad to press a button
Kwe can use generative AI to find and click those buttons, and freak out if the launchers change or if an unexpected behavior occurs
KI have a feeling that's gonna end up as vaporware
AAI, cash
Kalong with the anti-cheat promise
AI think it makes some sense for controller input
VThe anticheat promise is still my #1 curiosity
Awhich launchers? CD project red?
AIt sucks when you dock to a TV but need to click a button with a mouse
Agame developers should do that, dont think its the job of the platform
Amy overlay supports gamescope ffs
VSteam plush right stick/triggers is handy
VMost controllers I own have power bound to steam/home though
VSo I have to do it for not too long lol
AYeah, dualsense also helps get around it
ASince it has a trackpad
Twe've been beta testing for years without any compesensation!!!

K^ my favorite SCaLE swag
5They have like $10 mil and 18 employees. Surely they could run a few years, pay decent salaries and come up with something alright. Docker has still somehow managed to not have to pay back all the venture capital that was dumped into them
A10/18 quick mafs
A450k
Athats like 2 years
