I'm reasonably excited. I like the steam deck, and I'm off the opinion that we don't need an updated version just yet. A slower moving target for developers is best for long term game compatibility.
But eventually a new steam deck will arrive, and it will likely use the latest CPU/GPU, which will likely benefit from this new frame generation technology.
And perhaps some benefits will trickle down to the current steam deck, or maybe not 🤷♂️
But still, I'm optimistic for the future of mobile gaming.
Roads are 55mph here, seldom any traffic, so it's more like 2 hours by bike. For us anyway.
That's pretty much how we do it, but with a phev and an SUV. On days we both work she takes the phev, I the SUV. When one of us is going somewhere we take the phev. But if it's snowing or we want to haul kayaks or load up heavy to go camping, the SUV.
The phev is "hers"and the SUV "mine". But only vaguely 🤷♂️ we don't actually care that much. But also it's not a free for all. She would probably be a little miffed if I just randomly took the phev to work forcing her into the SUV. But if we talked about it first she'd probably be fine 🤷♂️
Commendable. But many of us live where cars are the only practical way to get around. My wife and I both drive 30 minutes to get to work.
I was with you until the minute late thing. That's crap. Grace period?
Not that I try to be late, I'm 99% early. But I'd be ticked to lose an hour because of couple minutes late on a bad morning. Though I guess some people may need that painful motivation to not abuse the system.
Random guy here, stumbled onto this thread.
I can only drink decaf, doctors orders. My wife doesn't drink more than a cup a day usually, caffeinated.
We have a breville espresso machine, got it during COVID because we were home so much.
We made coffee every day, sometimes several times a day. But now that we're more or less back to normal, we're not home often enough to use it regularly. Perhaps once a week.
We still love fancy coffee, just not enough to get up a bit earlier to make it, and take it with us, and then clean the thermos later. Bah.
So we go through a pound or so every few months. It's actually a bit annoying because the coffee gets less fresh as the weeks go on.
As for what coffee we buy? We buy local, there's a roaster near our house, which always smells amazing when you drive by. Their coffee is fine, quite tasty even, it just all kind of tastes similar, if that makes sense. Even if I go for some fancy flavors, which I'm guilty of doing (in a separate special grinder), they all taste very similar in base flavor. Maybe people like that 🤷♂️ it's fine.
Our favorite coffee is schuil in Grand rapids Michigan, super tasty, and their flavors are phenomenal (if you like that kind of thing).
Edit: beans are about $9-11/lb here in Michigan.
