The back paddles aren’t mapped to anything by default and there’s nothing Steam can do to help there. There are also some vibration levels you can’t set elsewhere and having a hardware switch for different profiles is nice.

The back paddles also can only be mapped to other buttons that are on the controller so I need different profiles for different games. I usually map them to l3 and r3 but sometimes its nice to have them as b and y instead without having to mess with steam input.

I’ve been very happy with an 8bitdo ultimate using the 2.4 ghz dongle. Only complaint is I can’t modify any mappings on Linux and have to bust out an old windows laptop for it. Otherwise, it’s worked perfectly every time across a few Linux systems including a steam deck.

It was a little silly to have to change a setting away from the default given that nearly everything works on proton.

I get the joke but maybe she was just asking about the next pastry in the case. Must come from somewhere. Still teasing her about it until she’s mad is kind of a dick move.

What’s wrong with asking where pastries come from? Sounds like you would’ve made fun of anything. I guess siblings are just like that though.

There’s an open source period tracker called drip that doesn’t collect your data. Everything is kept local. My wife used it for a while and learned some things about her cycle. It was also cool being able to know almost exactly when she’d be on her period 2 months ahead of time.

There are some serious health implications too like reduced bone density, heart issues, and cancer risks. Women should have the choice to take them if they want to obviously, but there can be very real side effects.

Last time I booted into windows it wiped my grub partition. That was the day I decided I didn’t really need windows anymore.

Japanese rice prices are a weird combination of inflation, panic buying, inefficient farming, and a bureaucracy managing it all that actively wants rice to be more expensive. This video has a really good explanation of it.

I mean, it was 26 years after the pope thing but she did convert to Islam. Even changed her name.
