It's funny how google pretends the music on YouTube isn't straight up piracy and everyone just goes along with it
  • If the original artist reports the pirated song, YouTube will most likely remove it.

    If no one reports it, then YouTube is going to keep it.

  • It's funny how google pretends the music on YouTube isn't straight up piracy and everyone just goes along with it
  • Aren't most songs on YouTube uploaded by the artists themselves?

  • I have an LCD 512GB, should I get the OLED?
  • I got the 1TB OLED, I still have the 512Gb LCD. If the screen is not a big deal for you, then don't upgrade.

    For me the OLED screen is worth every penny 😁

  • Yet another post about backlight bleeding
  • Same for me. That's a common problem for LCD screens. That is a part of the reason I got an OLED version.

  • If purchasing isn’t owning, then piracy isn’t stealing
  • It makes perfect sense, and I agree 100% with this statement. 👍

  • Sony is going to remove certain purchased titles from user libraries
  • That's one reason why Piracy will always exist, am I right?

  • I feel like the Steam Deck is the best proof of Gabe Newell's quote that "piracy is a service issue."
  • I generally always buy games, because they are kinda cheap on PC, but I still refuse to pay streaming services to watch movies.

    Steam Deck is great for consuming movies / TV series.

  • Looks like the LE is finally sold out
  • I got the standard edition, but I would have definitely bought it if it was available in my country. 🥲

  • feature request: set max battery charge level
  • Maybe could this be achieved using a third party app? I would be interested, if it's possible; my laptop battery is messed up, because it has always been at 100%.

  • Hades on Steam Deck is a blast
  • I am playing Jurassic World Evolution 2, works great on Deck out of the box.

    I also have Hades in queue.

  • rif is working again
  • Even Infinity still working.

  • Will airport security (Australia specifically) check for pirated content?
  • They didn't check my laptop or mobile phone, however I didn't really hold any illegal materials.

    Just don't bring any food, or any other prohibited things, they care more about real things than files you have in your laptop.

    I had all my work related files uploaded to proton, just in case (I was going as tourist, planning on studying).

    Good luck :)

  • YouTube Premium alternatives for mobile
  • You can try InnerTube of you care about music. It is like YouTube Music, but without ads, and can download the songs.

    For videos, I am using ReVenced.

  • Game of Thrones was nearly "destroyed" by pirates illegally streaming HBO content
  • Ye, the 2 things are pretty much connected 🤣

  • Game of Thrones was nearly "destroyed" by pirates illegally streaming HBO content
  • It was the most pirated series, because it was also incredibly popular.

  • Gaming handhelds, like the Switch and Steam Deck, will need to have a replaceable battery by 2027 in EU | overkill.wtf
  • Non replaceable batteries are on iPhones, since they are paired with the motherboard, and if you replace it, iOS will keep warning you every day about a non genuine battery presents in your device.

  • How to solve Game Crash and Black Screen [Steam Deck]

    I have been having those crashes on my Steam Deck, and for a moment I though I had a faulty hardware, but contacting Valve for support illuminated me.

    This kind of crash / freeze accurres usually after 15 / 30 min of gameplay, but it can also happen right when you start your game. The game freeze; black screen; then the last frame of the game is back, and the audio stills playing.

    Since I moved overseas, I am using an adapter + power strip to charge my Steam Deck, and because it was charging correctly, I would have never though of it being a problem.

    Anyway, the power strip was faulty, so pluging the charger in the wall fixed all my problems (the adapter is working fine).

    So if anyone has this problem:

    • Try and see if your Steam Deck crashes while not charging (battery mode).
    • Try different chargers and power outlets (in my case it was just the power strip, but it could also be other things).
    • Try not use extension cords or power strips

    If after this you still have the problem, or if that also happens when you are not charging, than it may be because an hardware issue (perhaps the battery?).

    I hope your Steam Decks are working fine, but I figured this could help someone down the line.

    I also want to thank Valve's Support, absolutely brilliant. Don't hesitate to contact them for any issue, they are the best.

    Take care everybody and have fun!
