I have two more weeks on #Gamepass before it expires. I had paid up using Points but with the 50% increase in price it was time to say goodbye. I was a day one subscriber and played a lot of games I wouldn't have otherwise with it, but $33.99/mth $CA + taxes is way too much. #Microsoft
With the #Steamdeck Dock I've even been able to play several games like Hollow Knight and Brotato @ 1080p 120FPS with the Steamdeck. It's a surprising and little powerhouse. I love it's versatility as an alternative gaming PC to my main setup.
Was using an Anker USB Hub as a Dock and it was great also but kind of messy with wires sticking out and unable to passthru VRR or HDR to the monitor. I can't emphasize enough how much of a difference VRR makes to smooth out performance.
Ordered the #Steamdeck Dock and It's really working well. Being able to passthru VRR and HDR to my 4k monitor changes the look and feel of the Steamdeck completely. Have been playing Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart @ 1080p 60fps with FSR, smooth thanks to VRR and good looking thanks to HDR and FSR. โค๏ธ

Agentic OS's can suck my ass. People who know, don't want more AI in their systems. #Microsoft #Computers

Nobody cares about EA Play and Ubisoft classics. Remove them from Gamepass Ultimate and lower the price. Alternatively, add Day 1 releases to Gamepass Premium.

When did professional sports go into overdrive with loud music? Pumping music after every pitch in baseball. Pumping music after every possession in basketball. Pumping music after every down in football. We canโ€™t just enjoy the din of the game? We have to be told, they loud music, to cheer?
Canceled #Xbox Gamepass tonight. I've been subscribed since day 1, but this is just too much. No longer even close to being worth it. They really have lost their minds with this increase. 50% more for no benefit, I don't want cloud and already own most of what's in Ubisoft Classic. Zero Value Add.

Haven't been sleeping well lately but I think last night was better, all be it with a weird dream. I was getting breakfast at a Vietnamese restaurant, but I couldn't read the menu and just wanted dumplings. Asked for Pot Stickers and they didn't know what that was. So I sat and was stuck. That's it.
Uninstalled EA Play app today as it's been lurking in the background unused for so long now. Can't have a Saudi /Trump app lurking on my PC. EA is long past done. #Videogames #Computers

No I do not want to sign into software.

90% of software should just run on your computer and do the thing it's built to do.

Not everything needs to be signed into.

There's no reason I should have to sign into Adobe Acrobat reader!

Every single person talking about the Xbox price increases without mentioning the tariffs is a political coward. I want nothing to do with Microsoft but not speaking plainly about the obvious cause of this is malpractice.

It's far from perfect but I really enjoy Atomfall, one of this year's biggest gaming surprises imo.

Rebellion really put their creativity on display.
Part5. Really bizarre it all just collapsed without any updates or changes, just one minute working, the next minute silence. Glad it's fixed but would really like to understand why. #Tech #computers #windows.
Part4. Ok then. Possibly after a few restarts, the HDMI audio has started working again. No luck with Realtek speakers though until I completely uninstalled them and rebooted. After reboot they've come back now as well. #Tech #computers #windows
Part3. Changed realtek driver to #Microsoft generic and back again didn't change anything. Nvidia hdmi audio also affected so has to be more fundamental than a vendors devices or driver. #windows #tech #computers
