I play it on my desktop PC primarily since its 60+ fps and while at launch the steam deck version was barely hovering at 30fps, with the newest SteamOS updates and my same settings it can go as high as 50fps, which makes a night and day difference and makes it much more comfortable to play.
Rougelikes/lites are typically not my style but for this genre it just makes sense and clicks with me. This also led to me starting out SW Outlaws too and that took me a little longer to come around to, but ive been liking the world theyve made so far. -

Which is an incorrect assumption right, cuz Airlines very much started by catering to businesses at first right?
Likely the hoarding of knowledge and profits to specific companies vs airlines sharing crash data is not helping color my opinion in a positive way either. -

This would be for two reasons, if the dryer temperature is broken after x minutes on each setting the machine will feel just as hot as any other setting. The other thing would be low vs high. I avoided most of my clothes from shrinking at a laundromat by starting at medium heat, then low to finish. With items like towels or blankets getting washed at medium the whole time. It takes longer of course, but I never personally remember experiencing shrinking from then on.

Modern myths
What’s the wild enterprise-level rumor or urban legend someone dropped on you while you were on the clock? Hoping someone here's gotta have a story so insane it sounds like total BS at least

I managed to try out the Vive at the Penny Arcade Expo and in the loud environment I was still able to get immersed and so I waited and purchased an Index and I found that the gap did not bother me at all. I know where are also countless accessories to help blot out light and help contain or make it more comfortable too. Not trying to promote one way or another as I am also interested in the bigscreen but the inclusion of useage for more people is kind of a killer point for myself when you need specific molds(not to even get into the space needed for people with glasses)

Playing the opening scene would end in a crash so I set the proton version to Proton Hotfix and its been running mostly without incident so far. Though I do miss having at least a few graphics settings, thw game always runs above 40fps and for this slower style its more than adequate.
The gameplay is relatively simple and I do try to explore and try things by myself as much as I can before resorting to looking things up online. -

I believe what Grumble4681 is pointing to something closer to when MS does an OS update that re-enables OneDrive and it eats up resources.
In my opinion that would be a breaking point because the software exists already, ive set the settings how I want and it will be forced On against my wishes you know? If im doing a fresh install of something Im personally always checking settings anyway so it doesnt feel onerous when I install something fresh and have to change things to fit my needs.
When we walk outside our doors we have a bit of an expectation that social norms are kept right. When someone decides to actively disregard a norm for(example) them valuing their own personal gain to be far greater than a rule for society(examples- llaying down on a subway or bus, or putting their soda on a seat and ignoring that someone wants to sit) what do we all expect of that person. What do you expect of yourself. What do you expect of other people around you.
Choose a scenario and explain what the real world choices you make, make sense to you.
I would then ask you to think of an online social group(tildes) where there is a variety of people each interacting with each other exclusively with discussion and words. What social norms are you expecting to be brought over. What are your own values and how do you treat others.
When in a physical/real space would other not agree with the statement(im in the US so maybe this is more licalized) I cannot impose my will or be expecting my values to be shared and followed by a random person on the street. Do you believe differently? Do you think an online discussion forum needs different guidelines? Does freedom for people in some far away thread(assuming good faith in general that people will stay in their space) to talk about a topic disturb you or make you scared? So they need to just be quiet and NOT discuss a topic ever for any reason for any length of time. That is what you want? Can a possible compromise not exist in any way because they should not be talking about a subject at all? Straight up ban of talking about a topic?
I personally feel like the answer to these scenarios will let people literally know expectations of this site. And I stick around Tildes because I thought that I can read and be exposed to a variety of subjects and conversations in good faith discussion.
I will make a choice after I hear enough from people that can dig meaning from my rambling thoughts.
