  • What’s the best perk of your job?

    Jump

  • Yeah, game servers is about the only thing I've come up with for a way to take any real advantage of the perk.

  • What’s the best perk of your job?

    Jump

  • Unlimited servers. I work for a VPS provider and on my first day my boss setup my account with $10k of credit and showed me how to add more in the admin panel "whenever [I] need it". As long as I'm only using things with plenty of excess capacity and don't cause problems, I can spin up whatever I want.

    Sadly, I've already got a rack of hardware at home, so all I've done so far is spin up a server with 96GB of ram and put a 2-page static website on it, lol.

  • Anti-AI fedi pact?

    Jump

  • Not federating with meta was a choice that could be made by the admins, just changing a setting in the instance. Slop can be posted to any instance by anyone with an account. If an admin decided to sign an anti-AI pact there's no way they could realistically abide / enforce it.

  • Ooh, infinity mm of thunder.

  • Does anybody actually work from 09:00 to 17:00

    Jump

  • I currently work 8:00 to 16:00 and no one has complained about my working hours yet. But, I'm a software dev working remote with coworkers in several different timezones, so the exact time I start and end my day really doesn't matter.

    At a previous job I worked 9:00 - 15:00 for several months when I was depressed and no one complained about that either. 🤷

  • What gaming console you own/owned disappointed you the most and why ?

  • New season announced

    Jump

  • I haven't actually watched any of the Hulu seasons yet, are they any good?

  • What ADHD relly feels like

    Jump

  • Is this AI?

    Probably, the slices in the second chart aren't quite equal sizes, but in such a subtle way that it's clearly not trying to communicate anything.

  • Anyone manage to order a controller?

    Jump

  • Thanks!

  • What driver would the Steam Controller come with if not xinput?

    Jump

  • I would imagine it's just some sort of really basic shim driver to get a communication channel between the controller and steam, then from there everything just goes through steam input.

    That's the kind of choice you make when you need to just get 'it' working. IIRC when the deck, its input depended (more?) on the steam client too. I'd imagine that they'll finish the slow part of the process eventually to make the controller work more generally too.

  • Steam Controller is Out of Stock*

    Jump

  • The store page said 3-5 business days for the early orders and 6-10 for the later orders.

  • Steam Controller is Out of Stock*

    Jump

  • FWIW, I was getting the same checkout error as everyone else for half an hour while trying to buy with steam wallet credit.

  • Anyone manage to order a controller?

    Jump

  • I got one and will try to post to this community with my thoughts after I receive it.

    The dpad is also my biggest worry with it.

    What did you do to upgrade your deck dpad? I would love to do that to mine too if it works well and isn't too loud.

  • Steam Controller is Out of Stock*

    Jump

  • Nah, hugged nearly to death in a minute, but my order went through at xx:31. But I think I was pretty near the end before they went OOS.

    Edit: in the US, sounds like the EU might have lasted a bit longer?

  • Anyone manage to order a controller?

    Jump

  • If it makes you feel better, I was on desktop (web) (and mobile and when I was getting desperate deck, lol) and my order didn't go through until xx:31. I think it really was just random.

  • Anyone manage to order a controller?

    Jump

  • Also switched to 6-10 days in the US at some point.

  • Anyone manage to order a controller?

    Jump

  • Gratz!

    I had money in my wallet too and got the buy button about 1 minute early, but still got stuck in the "There seems to have been an error" loop until my order went through 32 minutes later.

  • Anyone manage to order a controller?

    Jump

  • I don't even think it's that, I had preloaded wallet credit my payment was failing too.

  • Anyone manage to order a controller?

    Jump

  • Eyy, finally managed to get one. Right before they went out of stock.
