Subtex,

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.

Subtex,

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.

Subtex,

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.

How to revitalize this sub?

I love the original patientgamers subreddit so I was stoked to find this community. And because lemmy seems to have a more knowledgeable crowd any topic I posted here had great engagement and discussions, despite the small community. I am too busy to be a mod but maybe I can help by sparking this discussion: what would be needed...

Subtex,

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 😂

Subtex,

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

Subtex,

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,

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,

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!

Subtex,

🥳

Subtex,

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.

Subtex,

I’m a heathen who prefers electronic watches to mechanicals

😂

I completely forgot I got Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion for Free on Epic Games. I played and beat it today! (lemmy.world)

When I saw a new game release called Turnip Boy Robs a Bank, it piqued my curiosity. Such a contrasting tone in both the gameplay visuals and setting that I wanted to know more. Then I saw that this isn’t Turnip Boy’s first outing, when he committed another crime in his first debut game, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion. For...

Subtex,

Trying to figure out why this post is so down voted.

I looked up the game and it was released 3 yrs ago.

It’s recent but it’s not new so it’s not really incorrectly posted here vs a normal games community, right?

Is there some other info about this I don’t know about?

Trying not to moderate too much here. And I haven’t needed to really. Everyone’s been great with posting great stuff here overall.

Just was curious.

Subtex,

This is not a post that fits what this sub is about. Going to remove it now, sorry.

Subtex,

No worries.

I’ll be removing this post now though.

Subtex,

Thanks for the tip! $6 is too good to pass up. Just purchased it!

Subtex,

This seems to be a bit more general gaming news and less a good fit for patient gamers.

Subtex,

Agreed. I’ve been trying not to be too micromanaging here but this seems like something I should just delete as it doesn’t fit the community topic.

What do you guys think?

Subtex,

It would be nice if you could include a description of what the video is when you post link to a video.

Subtex,

Thanks!

Subtex,

This was a really cool thing to do. Thanks for sharing with the community!

Subtex,

Wow that’s an amazing run you’ve given that kindle! I used to have that one as well, years ago.

If you are sticking in the Amazon/Kindle world, then a new Kindle (whether you go with the base Kindle or the Paperwhite) you’ll have a much faster experience for sure. The newer eink readers now can do several page turns without any real visual flash of the refresh. It’s a small thing but very nice.

The Paperwhite has a backlight which is helpful for night reading. You’ll also get dark mode in the new software (not sure if your keyboard kindle has stayed up to date with software updates or not). Also there’s waterproofing.

The base kindle just loses the light and the waterproofing.

If you’re not going to stick with Amazon, take a look at the Kobo readers. They’re a great alternative to people not stuck in the Amazon world.
