Lovely that the buttons on my Steam Deck have decided to stop working at all (even on the BIOS menu!) right now that I'm out of the house and without access to a keyboard to try and figure out what's going on. I suspect a bogus update, hopefully nothing serious.

Yup, there it is. With the keyboard and mouse connected I've managed to boot it properly and install the pending update.

The #SteamDeck is back in business.

@hk rolling updates really are a gift and a curse. 😅
I've been so conditioned by boring work meeting, so I'm always doing stuff in the background.
A few weeks ago, I accidentally ran an upgrade on my desktop during my TTRPG session. Usually there's no problem, but in this case the screen went black and only a reboot would fix it. 😬

@hk I've also learned never to run updates before I start playing.
I have a bunch of Flatpaks installed and whenever there's a Nvidia driver update, it pulls down endless amounts of driver...stuff... 😅
It takes forever and there's a low chance that there's an issue that's either only fixed by a reboot or, in the worst case, only with another driver update. 😬
Seeing my limited gaming time tick down with updates is pretty much the worst possible experience. 😅
