Seeing that I can use any other charger that is 45W then I don’t need the one of valves. I just can not justify the €90 just for valve support and a charger. Is good to have firmware updates, but I don’t need that. If the product works and is half the price and can be moved from place to place quickly then I’m good.

That is good and all, but that thing is to bulky for my needs. I need something that I can quickly move from place to place. The problem is the stand. My case already includes a stand, so I don’t need one.

Good. It also can be found in amazon.nl for shipping to the Netherlands. Good. This one is it going to be. Thanks for the recommendation. Now I need a portable keyboard and a mouse. And the setup for my backup PC is done.

This is a good one. If it works with the oled version then I’m very likely buying this one.

Yeah, I don’t need a stand. My case already has it so I would be better with just a mini version of that without the stand.

You do have a point. I agree with you in that one. I’m looking more for something with portability, so the one you posted seems like a good option. Since I don’t need a bulky dock like the official version or the other ones around.

Yeah. I have a case so a docking station is a bit of a no go for me. That is why I’m looking for portability now.

Yeah. That hasn’t changed. So I would need to wait till the problems with the oled model are resolved. In the main time I’m just going to use Tails OS for work related things.

Oh. This is good to hear. To be honest SteamOS is not bad as a distro, but I would really like that added PC experience that I have with fedora gnome on my laptop. I think I’m going to do this. It seems the most good option right now and I get also a distro that is pretty similar for what I already use as my daily driver. Keeping Tails OS for other things then. Thanks bro.

That later I understand hahahaha. I just keep mine around for unlocking encrypted external hard drive that have been encrypted with a password and the hardware key that is just hidden in a place that only I know about. But then I would need to wait for that or just use Tails OS for the time being.

Yeah, that would be a little problematic for something that is necessary on the go. Can you not just use a hardware key to prompt the paraphrase every time you boot ?

Not abad option. I’m thinking on just replacing Steam OS with Bazzite and use the deck as my primary gaming device en backup workstation. But I would need to see if it is viable. If not maybe just using tails and booting every time I want to do something work related would be better.

The only problem that I had is that Steam OS doesn’t offer any full disk encryption. But I think I could just solve that with a cryptomator container. Even if an attacker gets access to the deck then they should not be able to decrypt the container.

Okay. This is bullshit. Who tf would think “rice/ricing” as racist ? It is a Linux term for god sake. People need to stop being so fragile little creatures that they let themselves be offended by something like this.
