i bought a Steam Deck last year and r/SteamDeck has been incredibly resourceful when it comes to game recommendations! some of the games are playable in both PC/Deck
i used to enjoy playing games to catch up with friends, but now that i'm getting older, i find that playing indie games solo is really refreshing. i love the freedom to pause whenever i need to and not feel obligated to keep playing if i'm not feeling it. there's zero guilt for not showing up.
2 games that i highly recommend: Slay the Spire and Faster Than Light. they're both turn-based games that are perfect for unwinding. nothing beats a pint of beer and Slay the Spire on a Friday night :)
The Steam Deck has completely revitalized my love of gaming. I have the newest Xbox as well with Gamepass but found myself going back to the same games from over a decade ago and I’d go through phases of playing regularly or not at all. On the Steam Deck I play a lot of indie games and I find my games on Fanatical (bundles) or Humble Bundle as well as Steam sales.
I haven’t even tried plugging the Steam Deck into a monitor/keyboard/mouse but that’s something I want to do eventually to try games that don’t work well on a gamepad.
I’m particularly fond of roguelite/rougelike (also love StS/FTL), deck building, RPG, and/or town builder type games. I also play some games via emulation (PS/PS2/Xbox/GBA) which can be a ton of fun especially with save/load states (don’t come for me, I don’t have the time to grind like did when I was younger playing these games for the first time).
interesting! perhaps cleaning up the older data might help abit here
> since ultimately you’re duplicating a bunch of data and will eventually catch
the eye of some GitHub compliance script
I suppose this could also be a concern with git scraping as we are bascially duplicating data through git commits (not trying to imply that one is better or worse). Having that said, I'm not sure if GitHub would be fine with any of these if more people were to do the same at a larger scale
one of my all-time favorites was "We are so conditioned to think that our lives revolve around great moments. But great moments often catch us unawares" – from the blog post titled 'The Cab Ride I'll Never Forget'
Nice demo! I briefly tried it out and the demo felt much better than the original WebLLM one!
On a side note, i've been trying to do something similar too for similar reasons (privacy).
Based on my recent experience, i find that running LLM directly in the browser with decent UX (e.g. sub 1-2 second response time, no lag, no crashes) is still somewhat impossible given the current state of things. Plus, i think that relying on users' own GPU hardware for UX improvement via WebGPU is not exactly very practical on a large scale (but it is still something!) since not everyone may have access to GPU hardware
But yeah, if there's anything to look forward to in this space, i personally hope to see improved feasibility of running LLMs in browsers
I made an add-on that syncs esports schedules to my Google calendar. The first iteration took me a weekend and the current iteration has over 100 users at https://tournacat.com/
i help to sync upcoming esports matches to your Google calendar https://tournacat.com/. it's 1-click install away and you pick the esports title of your choice.
