when I turn "SVM Mode" on I can reliably hard crash the computer by playing Payday 2 online for a while, when I turn it off nothing happens
I tweaked so many voltages on this thing and that was the problem?
fuck, I think I figured out what the setting was that made my system unstable
I really like the Steam Deck's UI, kinda hoping they bring that or sth like that to Big Picture mode, which kinda needs a refresh
re: Steam Deck
biggest downside: potentially having to carry both the Switch and the SD
re: Steam Deck
also, for many games, this is the Switch Pro gamers have been asking for
it even plays Nintendo games, you can just install Dolphin
re: Steam Deck
oh, and you can install Windows on it, apparently https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/steamdeck/faq
re: Steam Deck
and like, other companies have proven that a small Ryzen-based handheld is doable, Valve has the money to get smaller, more optimized board designs and really tweak the design
I like getting games (even multiplatform indie games) on the Switch rather than on PC because I know I'll play them more if I have the option for handheld
not sure about the control configuration but I like that they kept the trackpads (I love the Steam Controller for many games) and more buttons on the back + Steam's excellent input remapping system means the buttons and D-Pad are very much optional, just keep your fingers on the sticks/pads
Steam Deck
I'm not sure if it has mass appeal but holy shit I'm intrigued, Valve's hardware division is good at building stuff that works incredibly well for some people
what the fuck is this website, it absolutely decimates my Firefox https://www.steamdeck.com/en/

finally unwrapped the slightly cursed Lara Croft memory card
it's well-painted but her expression still looks so off… maybe it's the weird skin tone

asking for money help, boosts needed 
hello!
i need $80 for medical weed, $50 for groceries, and $25 for a haircut ($155 total)
i didn't get the 2nd and 3rd stimulus checks because my abusive parents claimed me as a dependent to steal them. i tried doing my taxes but that got rejected, so i need to call the IRS when i have the energy and stamina
i've been trying to do freelance video editing and/or find a job as a video editor, i can't work anywhere facing the public because i have asthma and catching covid is a major health risk for me

request for financial help..again, guh
Thank you all so much for the help last month!
I hate to request further generosity, but I'm afraid things are still dire. To get through the rest of the month, I was depending on a client paying me on time by tomorrow.
They just cancelled for two weeks.
I'll be getting paid eventually, but in the immediate, I'm a bit stuck.
So um, if you're feeling generous, I would deeply appreciate anything else you might want to toss my way!

I swear every time the Android 12 beta updates they round off more corners. Not saying it looks bad, necessarily, so far I dig the new look, looking forward to the theming system though. So far all I can set is colors, and they removed the ability to set icon shapes (probably temporarily)

more confirmation that #Splatoon3 was made for non-binary folks, look at this cool new art released by Nintendo today!!
thinking about the NitroRad iCarly April Fools episode again
Binging with Babish is just Epic Meal time but the food is good
oooh, new Android 12 beta
