I’ll preorder Steamdeck 2 so fast my pants will fly off

[–] abobla@lemm.ee 20 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

I don't know how to react to this

Proper decorum demands also removing your pants

With the gift of suspenders

Same, sadly there probably wont be a steamdeck 2 for a while considering valve is working on the deckard, I REALLY hope they announce it sooner rather than later though. I gave my steamdeck to my girlfriend and I'm waiting next gen.

I don’t think a deck 2 is the goal. I think it’s Steam OS. Third parties will be building better hardware and just throwing Steam OS on it. Your Deck 2 will be made by whoever built the hardware configuration you prefer.

Deckard is probably a means to ensure Steam OS is VR capable as well, which would also liberate PCVR from windows and meta as well.

You're probably right, but I hope not. Those third parties keep focusing on chips poorly optimized for a handheld and ditching touchpads.

I’ll preorder the deckard so fast my shirt will fly off

This is great news but I'm curious what it's going to take for your underwear to fly off

I’ll preorder Half-Life 3 so fast my dick will fly off

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 2 points 10 hours ago

Wake up babe, new lower surgery tech just dropped

[–] abobla@lemm.ee 1 points 11 hours ago

This is the greatest comment thread that I'm reading in my life.

[–] Damage@feddit.it 1 points 10 hours ago

Well, you're probably right, but they could also work on two things at a time, it's not like Valve is a single person...

[–] Amanduh@lemm.ee 2 points 15 hours ago

I'll order 2, watch me nerd.
