STATUS God I hate the pc gaming community.
I'm trying to play this from a steam deck knockoff with windows 10. Has anyone had any success getting it working with a joypad? Any tips or help would be appreciated.
Why are you playing with a steam deck? The game doesn't support linux. A pc with a keyboard and mouse is the best way to play this game. You should invest in a better pc instead.

You going all out and getting a 4090?
I built my dream PC over at Cyberpower: $5200
Should I?
If I had the space I probably would.

Resentment because heâs spending that kind of money or that he finds enjoyment with it?
For me, every once in a while I think maybe I should buy a PC again (I literally donât own one). But then come to realize that, eh, I wouldnât be using it anyway. And spending thousands of bucks on âgamerâ shit just seems completely insane. So, keeping in mind what I wrote a bit earlier about basically refusing to spend money, Iâm definitely not going to buy such an overpriced PC. Not because I couldnât afford it, but I canât get myself to do it without feeling terrible about the waste.

Thank you for using Resentment as a Service service! Just a kind reminder that your trial period will expire soon.

I own an iPhone. I also have a Mac laptop, but I didnât pay for that, work did. So itâs not really mine. And you canât play games on it that require a $3,000 GPU.

I've consulted the spreadsheets and I actually have more money to throw at random shit to make me more unhappy.

Nope, it's not the sewer, different smell. Sewer, at least here, is just H2S. More like some garbage can (or some lazy bum's kitchen, if there's any difference between the two)

The last time I checked my personal website it was running 5.something. I don't manage the server, though, so hopefully the hosting company is keeping up with things.
ObTopic: I found a wireless headset that I actually like. However, my WiFi does not, at least not in this corner of the house. After messing around for a few weeks I solved the problem by only allowing the 5 GHz varieties of WiFi. I'm fully expecting it to connect via 802.11a at some point.
