If you’re on a samsung phone, in the galaxy store there’s the “Good Lock” app which is a hub for a bunch of qol apps. One of those is “Sound Assistant” which has alot of options including Individual app volumes, and volume steps for adjusting the vol. buttons increase/decrease jumps.

Imo It’s not quickly charging that’s an issue, more about the capacity

This is great since

Yea oled is very nice, it’s what most phones today have too. (Mine included)

It is nice to have a portable computer, but op is asking for playing games and your games can have wayy better graphics if you stream it from a full gaming pc vs compromising quality to have it run on the steamdeck. When you’re just running games on steam there’s not that much more difference between the two.

Just get a bluetooth controller and use the SteamLink app on your phone. It let’s you lounge back and play games just like the steam deck and for way cheaper. I’m actually finding it hard to justify buying a Steam Deck when I have this option.

I’m in the same situation, working 8 hrs at a desk and I can’t join the discord group like I used to during school years. Now I just watch tv on the main monitor and use SteamLink on my phone

You could run your own if you have the hardware for it (most upper mid-range gaming pc will do, 6gb+ gpu)

Then something like KoboldAI + SillyTavern would work well

I have the S23 ultra, which has about the same display

It can go very dim with just the standard slider already and on top you can toggle extra dim which has it’s own extra slider. In my pitch black room, reading white on black text I have to stop the extra dim slider to about 3/4th before it starts being too dim to see the screen.

There’s also the blue light filter slider (they call it eye comfort shield) that you can also add on top, it’ll turn everything more on the orange/yellow side making it easier on the eyes.

Otherwise, I say you can’t go wrong with the S series of samsung phones, they’ll last a long time and have the top specs of that year. The S23 has an aluminum frame and if it’s any close to mine it’s very tough, I like looking at durability tests on youtube to get a good idea of how much damage it can take. 100% you have to get a screen protector, film ones work okay, but glass protectors are wayyy better. Glass protectors just feel the same as the display, though if you plan to be rough with it film protectors are easier to replace. I got mine from whitestone, Spigen is good and well recognized too. I say to get a screen protector because just taking it in/out of your pocket after two days you’ll start seeing micro scratches, so this would help with the longevity of the device.

There’s a current version on macbed .com and a slightly older one on cmacked

maybe we can find an APK somewhere, I already own the game on steam and while steamlink works well, native app would be nice

Edit: there’s a copy on mobilism

Obvious, yet there you were wailing

Then don’t use it?

If ever you could also use the lockdown mode, once enabled you just hold the power button and it gives you the option to turn off biometrics and lockscreen notifications

Yea : (

Guess now our sims competition lies with InZoi and Paralives

You could still mod using HWFLY/INSTINCT-NX or a Picofly modchip

Ice Cream Sandwich, Martincitopants and NakeyJakey have me going back after sponsorblock skips it, it’s just so entertaining i’ll take the ad at this point

I see all the Ublock Origin love, I also want to bring up Privacy badger (while not an adblocker I use it and would love for people to confirm it’s relevancy to me).

Should be part of the basic user extension kit afaik
