With just a microSD card, you’ll be able to easily bring your games across the Steam Deck, Steam Machine, and Steam Frame. (www.theverge.com)

I literally just downloaded the oh Yakuza game last night to test this morning! Are you me?!? 👋🏻🤣

Seriously, I would much rather talk excitedly about all the crazy ways we get this s*** to work, and tear down people in our circles.

I'm realizing this cold November morning, that I need Lemmy to be what Reddit was 15 years ago and 10 years ago. Because I just spent the last hour responding to posts in /r/sbcgaming and /r/steam asking "why tf are we being so mean to each other?"

When we are essentially in the same teams.

Anyhow, slightly more on point, I was absolutely flabbergasted last week, to discover that I could run 'Ghostwire: Tokyo' on my PC at home --> 'Moonlight' stream it over 'Tailscale' --> play it on an 'Ayn Thor' Android handheld 450 Miles away --> 'Chromecast' it to the 8 years old 'Nvidia Shield TV' I set up in my folks living room, and play on their tv with low enough latency to actually progress my story, and the only configuration required was putting my device on the same network as the TV set top box.

This is the future I was always trying to cobble together, and honestly it feels like it would not have been possible without steam making so many of the underlying software services and links.

    When I learned you could run the old Yakuza games on a Steam Deck setting it the lowest power setting, I got excited for Android phones because I saw people running the Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk. Anything that played under like 8w on a Deck, certainly that could work on a recent flagship Android phone if you could get Cyberpunk running on those

    I plan on trying remote network gaming through tailscale at some point. I don't even care to play outside the home like that. I just want to see it work

    I use it almost daily, and it works great for anything but twitchy,online Bro Shooters. Apollo/Artemis over Tailscale runs better than Steam Remote Play // Steam Link, and they handle client resolution switching for you.

    Aside, I just wanted to say that this was really pleasant. I've spent way too much time in the last week or so trying to share relatable and geeky experiences with these technologies, in various subreddits that really just feel like flame wars.

    So this was a breath of fresh air
