This was pretty much my reaction as well.

The Minisforum HX80G. That's the older model. They have the HX99G, HX100G and others now. They all range in price but Amazon has sales.

I picked mine up for $650.

I'm the same way but I bought one of those mini pcs that has a laptop cpu/gpu in it, installed ChimeraOS on it which essentially turned it into a steamdeck.

I have that hooked up to my living room tv and it's my main gaming device. It's essentially a console. I never upgrade anything. It runs what I play at 1080p with med or high settings.

Suits me just fine. I mainly just want to sit on my couch and game on the TV instead of being at a desk like I did years ago.

Ah OK. Every time someone asks how to find other communities, I see that Lemmy Explorer site linked, which is why I searched there and was confused why this community wasn't on there.

Nice to know it's showing up in other indexers though.

Like others have mentioned, I am in the same boat of having multiple communities to follow with the same name but on different instances and I forget about others or (more likely) don't even know that others exist.

It does bug me that I can't group communities that exist on different instances together. It would be nice to be able to subscribe to a collection of communities that I can give a label to.

A way to group all patientgamers communities together would be a huge help.

It's just the way the whole federation stuff works I guess. And I like it...Except for when I don't 😂

That would be really awesome of you!

After I've picked two winners, we can have you pick two more and you can send them the codes directly as well.

We can make it the giveaway part 2.

When we get to announcing winners I'll message you!

Thanks!

It's more like thanks to everyone who has been posting and commenting in the last year and keeping the tone/mood of this place chill, inviting and friendly, which is all I wanted.

[–] Subtex@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Apparently I hadn't checked in a while, because Steam used to not have digital gifts, I swear! But Yay, I do see they offer gifting digital codes now.

Thanks for the info!

[–] Subtex@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I just checked and I already had that in my wishlist! Definitely looks cool

This has definitely been the case with me as well. Especially as I got older and had less time to play anything.

I've always been partial to story over mechanics though. I just think the preference has tilted much further in favor of story games now.

 

With the news that the the new 16 series will offer gpu modules for upgrading, I really hope someone makes a non-laptop enclosure for the mainboard +gpu.

I'd love it if instead of buying non-upgradable mini gaming pcs I could have one of these that offers more flexibility, upgrades, and would be supporting a company I think should be rewarded for their entire ethos.

Guess we'll find out soon enough.

 

Not a recent movie but still a good video that covers the type of cg/composting I always find fascinating.

 

Anything good?

I'm hoping to get some time to play Return of the Obra Dinn if I could get any significant amount of time blocked off to game.

I saw the recent API charge news with Reddit and saw that people were discussing alternatives to Reddit in the event we all have to abandon it.

Joined Lemmy here and noticed one of my favorite subreddits had no Lemmy equivalent — so I created it.

I have no desire to be a mod, so if anyone wants to take on that role just let me know.

I’m just hoping people do post here if they’re checking Lemmy out and seeing what’s available community-wise.
