Thank you @BonesOfTheMoon.
Every time I have a genuine curiosity of what it would be like to take the most severe concussion in the history of the universe, and suddenly not understand how the core fundamentals of reality functioned… you post one of these, and it’s a satisfying insight into how that would be. 🤣
Ah, yes, writer of the movie that has a plot hole for its entire premise.
The premise being: dude who is intelligent enough to transform a Cessna into a time machine (something likely requiring mastery of every aspect of physics and a 200 IQ) is not also smart enough to fly briefly into the future for next week’s Powerball numbers, and instead makes a deal with Evil Inc. when he needs more funding.
I don’t think the population is as hopelessly divided as the social media spaces make it out to be, but at the same time, the federal government looks more and more unrecoverable from corporate interests and back to the people every single day. It’s probably past the point of return, excepting major societal shakeup.
It feels like there may come a point where the states that are large enough to be countries on their own start looking into any mechanisms that would allow them separation, just to be able to run themselves without federal interference and incompetence.
I’ll use something real that I like about them, but to be clear, it’s still 99.9% money and 0.1% that other thing lol
All Steam Decks come with an SSD of varying sizes for their base storage, so you definitely have one. If I remember correctly the original 64GB LCD model had a slower nvme SSD, but all the other models should be similar performance SSD-wise.
Maybe if you have an LCD Deck, and I have an OLED, that was the difference? I know they don’t function much differently in most ways, but I have heard that there are some slight background tech differences between them that have them perform differently in some scenarios.
Can’t say we didn’t try though!
I did get into the game, I was playing it for almost half an hour the other day.
Did you run Heroic using Proton? Because if so you definitely don’t want to do that, Heroic itself should be run without compatibility tools.
Let me give it another go today, I haven’t changed anything since I ran it over the weekend.
Edit: So in the end, I was able to load it up and play it again. There are some stutters here and there, and loading screens take a bit (not sure if this a native property of the game, or that we’re running it with Proton).
Also I did an additional test where I installed and ran the game off of an SD card (since I had to reinstall anyway), and that was not stable, the game kept crashing. So if you’re trying to run it off an SD card, you should probably try to put it on your native SSD.
The weirdest thing is that it kept going into an unresolvable update loop when I first started trying to play it today. It would try to update, stop, try again, stop, on and on, but never finished. I had to uninstall and reinstall (tried SD card first, then moved it to the SSD where it worked fine). That felt like something going on with Epic honestly.
You’re welcome! Have fun!
This one doesn’t seem like it’s my normal cup of tea but I might have to give it a go further than the first ten minutes, I really like the aesthetic lol
Yes, but crucially, in Desktop mode, not Gaming mode. It didn’t work when I tried it from Gaming mode!
Never mind, I got it running!
So, I realized that I hadn’t tried it in native Desktop mode, and it can be important, it works a little differently to Gaming mode in the background. And that was it.
Go to Desktop Mode (native Desktop mode using the power menu option, not Nested Desktop)
Right click Steam icon on the taskbar > Library
Find Heroic Games launcher on your library list and run it
Just launch the game in Heroic like you normally do. My Heroic launcher knew to use a recent version of GE Proton automatically, I didn’t have to tell it.
Worked like a charm.
Super cute game btw lol
EDIT: I can’t remember if Heroic is naturally Steam launchable or not. If not, just add it as non-steam game. You might not even have to launch Heroic from steam, I do it for convenience, but if that was part of the magic formula then that’s how you do it.

For reals though, there aren’t many Proton DB entries for this one, but one Deck user reported they used GE-Proton 9-16. So I’d download that version of GE Proton if you haven’t and give that a go.
Ah, see, you misheard.
That wasn’t the free game of the week, it was the FREEZE game of the week.
Get a back and shoulder loofah and call it a day (not endorsing this one, just using it as an example of what I’m talking about).
Yeah, that was out there.
This sovcit drives Lyft. If I knew that they were posting stuff like this, I’d be afraid to get into their car lol
I didn’t realize it was a reference. Still, it really does invoke sovcit energy lol
While I admire your effort in sovcit-Harry-Potter-spell-shouting a legal condition into being, it feels like they would have some bat-turd insane terminology that they would use here, and that would be the chef’s kiss.
Still though, a solid effort, I’m going to give an 8/10.
We just might be able to stop repeating negative history in 60-100 year phases all the time, due to the overwhelming majority of people having living memory of those events, instead of a handful of people due to the restrictions of the human life span.
Plenty of issues overall, sure, but I’m speaking specifically about the statistical inability to vote for third parties and have it mean anything.
First past the post voting is the sole issue that is keeping legitimately contending third parties off of our ballots.
Installing ranked choice voting (or one of its very close cousins) is the the number one reformation change that can be made to give the people their voices back. So of course, the powers that be are terrified of it… no surprises here.
The actual term for the type of noun you’re describing is an agent noun, if that helps with your searching.
