I spent a decade of my life creating game assets, the result is a lot of game assets. They're free, no ads, no tracking, no registration, no subscription, no permission needed, no need for attribution and suited for any use including commercial.

The spotlight is on you, time pressure - better to blurt out a wrong guess rather than just freeze. As a "Wheel Watcher" - I've shouted stupider things at the screen.

@darkuncle

Very surprising; I'd be expecting valve to test their updates vs their own hardware prior to release. Are you running the alpha or beta release?

@darkuncle

Ooohhh......

So - this just released: retro-exo.com/exodos.html

I wonder how outlandish it would be getting it running on the steam deck. In particular the "download on demand" version. Gotta admit, a handheld with every major DOS release on demand might be fun...

@darkuncle

To be fair - that's less on the steam deck and more on PC gaming forever having the hardware platform shift under it's feet; the situation you describe isn't "steam deck" - it's "pc gaming". You're old enough (I think?) to have had to struggle with IRQ settings and sound cards and needing to find the magic combination that worked...

Let me ask you this - are you seeing this problem with deck-verified games? The only difference here between this and, say, the switch is you're being allowed outside of the curated section into the jungle.

Honest to God, at first I thought "Can of Soup" was the annotation.

I just saw “Gen X became 30 at age 10 and is still 30 at age 50” and wow, do I feel seen.

Which is a very strange feeling for a Gen Xer, just sayin’.

As a holiday treat, and because I haven't finished writing about my walk on the Camino yet, I present a rant that I went and polished up.

TL;DR: If you tell me "It's a training issue", I assume the problem is with yours.

I should be threading all of this, but what makes the "he was just faithfully executing the laws" particularly absurd is that a president has nothing to do with elections.

Nothing. That was intentional.

It's the business of Congress, state governments, and the courts to resolve disputes.

That's because a president may be running for reelection.

The drafters of the Constitution didn't htink of everything, but they thought of that.

@darkuncle

Be very careful - that "delightful" can be very expensive. Had a bad experience once with a roommate and space heater that ended up increasing the shared electricity bill by well over $1000 - which he expected us to split.
