Not the face itself, but the design looks like the work of Joel Veitch. He ran a website called rathergood.com back in the early 2000s where he did animations like this. He did fake music videosand even got a commercial deal with Quiznos.

Google Play Music was my favorite of them all. Good UI, good music selection, decent quality, good integration with my Google ecosystem. Then Google did a Google and turned it into YouTube Music.
Spotify was a decent replacement - the best part was how it has an app on EVERYTHING. I listen to mostly albums so the mediocre playlists and crap shuffling rarely factor in. The worst was funding Joe Rogan, price increases, and paying artists shit.

Nut jobs feeding bears? Check.
Nut jobs accused of sex crimes against children? Check.
Nut jobs infighting about muh freedoms? Check.
Nut jobs surprised when leopards bears eat their faces? Check.
There’s a pretty interesting book about New Hampshire libertarians called “A Libertarian Walks into a Bear”. It’s about a libertarian utopia that was overrun by bears.
The Steam Deck only has a single USB-C port on it, so you would need the dock for USB-A ports. The good news is that the existing USB-C port is on the top of the Deck and the dock connects via a short cable. You can use the dock as a stand but it’s not required.
I heard from a “friend” that it runs very well on a Switch emulator on a Steam Deck. Some pre-rendered cutscenes are janky. It has a pretty cool system where you can take a screenshot that will pin to the map to indicate places you need to find back to once you unlock a new ability, and sometimes those don’t render right either. But otherwise, gameplay is flawless. Or so I’ve heard.
It’s tough to pick between Kid A and In Rainbows, but I think In Rainbows sneaks by for me.
