Poor woman. Having a baby with some weirdo who installed windows on his steam deck, who brought his gaming setup when you’re in labor. Idiocracy was a prediction, not a comedy.
Why bring mouse+keyboard when the steamdeck has it’s own control and takes less space?
I mean it was probably consensual so the only person I feel bad about is the kid.
Block out your annoying wife’s contractions with these Audiophile Headphones™.
Not to rain on the anti windows parade, but he has to install windows to play Tarkov. You cant play it on linux due to anticheat.
Although I understand this on a factual level, I still question the set of priorities that leads someone to install an operating system in order to run a single game.
Also, his wife must’ve been enthused to see he brought all his “performance upgrades.”
Can’t run it on linux? Can’t run it at all.
I think you can play PvE Tarkov because the raids run on your machine (except for Streets). But if you’re already willing play PvE you might as well play SPtarkov which does work on Linux and has a modding scene that offers a significantly better PvE experience.
EDIT: just a PSA that Tarkov uses Battleye, which supports Proton. Just like with almost every other game the only reason you can’t play Tarkov on Linux is because the developer doesn’t want to you to do that.
Because there aren’t 100000000000000 other, much better games to play out there. Nope. Tarkov is the only game ever created that is any good. So good that people are willing to allow rootkit anti-cheat garbageware to be installed on their system to play this holy, godly, superhyper great game.
I like how everyone is giving shit to the dude for “not being there for his wife,” because I remember the OG post from Reddit where OP and his wife were explaining that it was cool, she said it was okay and even encouraged it, and was unconscious most of the time during recovery anyway.
I don’t even think the windows on steam deck part is even from the OG, but maybe I just missed that in the comments.
For me it’s the bit about bringing almost a whole desk setup instead of using the portable as a portable
You shouldn’t just be there because the woman is important to you, but above all the child. From that point on, it shows that he’s not in the mood and is more focused on his hobbies. So he can’t separate himself from his shitty technology at such important events and maybe just read a book or something…
I feel bad for the kids future
Windows on steam deck
Explains the behavior lmao
Windows on steam deck Is blasphemy
Who the hell puts Windows on a Steam Deck? What a loser
Oh and he’s not being present with his wife
Lol Windows.
Hoping he means just for the labour, not the whole 9 months
Bro probably could
Why would anyone brag about any of this. His poor partner.
Engagement/rage bait. Or maybe it’s just satire?
I can see bringing the Deck, like you might be sitting there for at least 24 hours, you don’t need to be sitting there holding their hand the whole time…
But the keyboard? The mouse? The HEADPHONES? It’s not like you’re in an extended stay. You’re getting that baby out and going. You don’t need all that.
I mean the headphones make much more sense than the keyboard and mouse imo.
Wait wait wait, WINDOWS installed?
Just a cavalcade of poor decisions.
To be fair, a lot of anticheat tools don’t play nicely with Linux.
To be fair none of the games where their AC blocks linux are worth playing anyway.
A few, not a lot, and not on any games worth playing
Right… I hope this isn’t the begining of a shitty broken home and the birth of lost soul.
Le setup. I love these guys posting their balls like this
That poor woman
Having to deal with a guy who uses windows on his Steam deck
“Wife’s pregnancy”
I’m wondering who is the father
Can’t play tarkov on steam deck without windows or moonlight and moonlight over hospital wifi would be worse than tarkov natively over hospital wifi.
You can. I just played until level 36 and uninstalled.
I would hope she would have known about his red flags before the baby lolol
The kind of guy who installs Windows on his steam deck is the same kind of guy who won’t let his wife get an epidural.
He’s didn’t bring a second controller. Divorce.
If only there was a device that combined the Steam Deck with a keyboard and a 14" monitor. Like a Steam Deck that is designed to sit on top of your lap…
Pfft next thing you’ll tell me is that it’ll “fold up” when you’re done with it, get real pal your head is in the clouds lmao
installs windows, instantly requires system tweaks and performance upgrades.
I’m no audio expert, but I feel like “audiophile headphones” and “headphones you can power directly from a steam deck” are probably mutually exclusive
Impedance and audio quality are not intrinsically linked.
There are good headphones that can work with a headphone jack.
I use planar headphones which are not too bad to drive, but most of the time I need some extra power. The deck actually is capable of blowing my eardrums out still
Not necessarily, some high-end headphones manage to have a low resistance and high sensitivity combo and are easy to “drive” without a dedicated amp.
