Oh no doubt, Steam Link is super easy to use. Once quality catches up it seriously might become the Stream Deck by default at home.

Does Sunshine/Moonlight still blow Steam Remote Play out of the water or does this bring them up to par?

^^ It’s me, he’s talking about me and my tribe of people!

I love the tech but have much the same feelings. AI maybe improve the world eventually, but I predict a painful future in the intervening time. I hope investors turn sooner than later to slow this train but we’ll see. Lot of big players betting the farm on AI, to the point where they’ll do everything to see it through.

Seems small but something like this could kill this plane as a passenger jet if enough people are avoiding em.

Mostly true in normal cases. If you’re really talented there is a market for you, always. Idk if he falls in the category, and most cyber criminals have no shot at white hat anything but given his age and his feats I think he might be an exception.

I’ve bought so many more steam games since getting the deck. They know what they’re doing.

First rule of Arch Linux is you defintely talk about Arch Linux

Tbh I’m fine with hackers wrecking the stupid micro transaction companies.

Yeah it is on Cisco, not questioning that.

Good catch getting it early, teach the young guys to kill those web portals…nothing but trouble. But I hear ya, sometimes CLI can be a pain.

Yeah this is one is on Cisco in general, still wondering why you’d have the web interface enabled anyways…just asking for problems right there.

Removed by mod

All you have to do is switch to the stable update, toggle off wifi, reboot and then reboot again. If they didn’t patch yet then it’ll get stuck in verification regardless of the update channel. Go try it.

Edit: They’ve just released a hotfix. Yes they pushed a prod update that broke decks in certain circumstances, shitty of you to be so skeptical.

Valve is capable of making a fuckin mistake every once in a while, you don’t get bonus steam points for blowing Gabe at every opportunity. Maybe check your assumptions next time.

What a loser.

You immediately dismissed it and acted like you knew what you were talking about like an ass despite offering nothing of actual substance to the topic.

If you updated recently, AND your wifi was toggled off on the next reboot the deck can’t restart into SteamOS. There is a handful of workaround that can fix it in some cases but essentially the Deck requires you to have internet access to verify the installation and if it doesn’t it will just get stuck on this step indefinitely.

Workaround solutions involve tricking it into thinking it is on a known network, ethernet into the dock, etc. Then loading the previous image.

The actual solution is for Steam to skip this verification step unless wifi is on and connected. It has happened in the past and with this being portable device if you happen to be using your deck in a normal way, bringing it with you traveling for example you’re fucked until you get home.

People keep downvoting users reporting issues because people think Valve is above criticism but every forum is the issue is being reported for the past several days.

Your run of the mill user cannot fix it, therefore it is bricked in the eyes of the general consumer. You could actually fix the red ring of death for Xbox 360’s too, so history kind of invalidates your points as well.

It happened in Prod update channel so not sure why you’re arguing about Beta

For fucks sake it bricked the prod update too under the same circumstances , so now what? What is the genius response now? Or does it EXTRA HIGHLIGHT that they aren’t even using the beta environment to sus out bugs correctly, because no way this should’ve gone untested in the lower environments even before this…its happened multiple times now, maybe MAYBE you should include the same circumstances in your pipeline tests but what the fuck would I know?

Happened in the prod release too, but carry on.
