        No fricking shit, you're going to look like an autist using anything but a phone or laptop in public. Who the hell cares though? Are you expecting Tanner to walk up and smack it out of your hand before shoving you in a locker for looking like a dork?
        Once you hit a certain age you realize the opinions of strangers are entirely irrelevant. Would you rather walk naked through Time's Square or a family reunion?

            He's just saying "why the frick would a Steam Deck be more autistic than any other portable console". No one but old sad people actually think playing video games in public is autistic, you really shouldn't be on this fricking board if you think that. When I saw a woman whip out her switch mini at a waiting room I didn't think "wow what a fricking autist" I almost wanted to ask her what games was she playing on it.

            It is for handhelds. 1080p would be nice but it's not worth the performance and battery trade off. What's more important is the quality of the screen, like it's brightness, contrast, and colours. At 6 inches, 800p is definitely enough. You'd need a magnifying glass to see any detail if you had a 1440p screen or whatever. Just not worth it for a gaming handheld.

    Failure rate seems to be about 40% on this considering how many have to resort to RMA.
    Can't get one, or parts for them, because valve can't into simple logistics.
    Valve literally changing the specs and only admitting it after getting caught.
    'fixes' stick drift by gimping deadzones. 'fixes' fan by gimping fan curve. Refuses to take returns on them both now because they're "fixed".
    Only use the quiet fan with review units. Fricks paying customers over instead.
    SteamOS is half-baked and a nightmare to use, wipes almost everything with every update because they couldn't even get that right.
    Fricking huge and unwieldy, barely even portable.
    Already made obsolete by at least four other company's devices, which are smaller, faster, more powerful and lighter.

    Why do I want this turd again? Why does anyone? Brand loyalty?

    The gaming oriented UMPC market is just starting to take off, We could see stuff like in the OP actually commercialized. The hardware is getting powerful enough to actually drive it, and Linux certainly is proving its worth on the software front in regards to Proton.
