Steam Deck - Steam hand held gaming system
Sledgstone posted a topic in Video Games,
Steam has made its own hand held game console. It can be used as a handheld or docked to a tv like the Nintendo Switch. Honestly, this looks like a solid hand held. Everyone that does PC gaming has a steam account and most likely alot of games already in their library.
There are three versions: $399, $529 & $649 depending on the internal storage. Its shipping December of 2021.

The hardware looks great too:

Playstation 5
Sledgstone posted a topic in Video Games,
Until we get solid info from Sony, theres only speculation so far about the final list of features, prices, etc. The latest rumor I just read was this:
https://bgr.com/2020/01/13/ps5-release-date-price-announcement-and-preorder-details-leaked/
If true the price will be $499 and be available for preorder early February. And there will be full backwards compatibility with digitally owned games. And ps4 controllers will be forward compatible, which would explain that new extra back button attachment that was announced.-

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19)
Sledgstone posted a topic in Random,
Hows the Coronavirus impacting you? Thankfully I work from home and my job is not affected yet so I haven't had any work outages. I know quite a few people now having drastically reduced hours in the food industry and they'll be struggling to pay bills here by next week. I haven't been shopping since last Friday and it was a mad house then and only gotten worse from what I've heard. There is coronavirus cases in my county here in NY and it looks like the economy is going to crash. Maybe this new stimulus package will help? If they do send out checks to everyone like the Bush stimulus did, I'm going to have to throw that money right at my roof leak instead of additional food supplies. x_x I have one piece of roof that is not in good shape and apparently has been leaking for a while, buried under masses of snow until it recently all melted. Home insurance guy was a prick and doesn't want to cover it. I'll be switching home insurance companies just because I didn't like the guy. I also think my agent misrepresented to me the actual quality of the insurance package too.-

All the games I'm guaranteed to keep for the original Nintendo Switch.
- Hogwarts Legacy - It was a buycott game & I'm not letting anyone buy my used copy.
- Skyrim - Because I doubt Bethesda will announce a Switch 2 version launching on 11/11/2025. (And I'll keep it if they do.)
- Almost every Nintendo published game that doesn't have a physical Switch 2 version.
All the games I'm guaranteed to sell for the original Nintendo Switch.
- Skyward Sword - If I'm not keeping BotW & TotK then there is no way I'm keeping this.
- Saints Row The 3rd & 4 - Saints Row became cringe after Saints Row 2 & I rather play that buggy mess on a future PC than keep these.
All the games I'm keeping for the original Nintendo Switch unless they get Switch 2 versions.
- Dark Souls - Hopefully a Switch 2 version will have Cloud Saves... Or not since it's my excuse to not subscribe to NSO.
- ManEater - It's not on GOG.
- Gori: Cuddly Carnage - It's on GOG, but I rather keep my physical copy.
- American Fugitive - It has a Saints Row 2 reference.
- Red Dead Redemption - It's The Best LoZ game on the original Nintendo Switch.
Games I won't buy for the Nintendo Switch 2.
- 1st Person Shooters - Unless they have 3rd Person as well, like Skyrim or are published by Nintendo, like Metroid.
- Games that aren't rated M - Unless they're buycott games, like Hogwarts Legacy, or are published by Nintendo.
Games I might preorder for the Nintendo Switch 2.
- Metroid Prime™ 4: Beyond – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
- The Duskbloods
- The Legend of Zelda™: Breath of the Wild – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
- The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
- Some other games like Hitman that were mentioned, but Nintendo doesn't have pages for yet.
I might edit this later if Nintendo updates Nintendo Switch 2 news soon.
-
If everything Hogwarts Legacy related gets cancelled, I'll at least be able to save some money.
-
I remember playing demos for the previous 2 Styx games on PS4. I currently got one of them for free on GOG. I might buy this if it ever comes to GOG.

I've been getting ready for spring for the last couple months and its taken up a crazy amount of my free time. We expanded our garden to be really huge last september in preparation for growing fruit and veggies. Then we decided to expand it another 6 more feet in one direction which we finally got finished last weekend. It was alot of work because our garden has an almost 6 foot tall deer fence all around it. We hammered in u-posts into the ground and attached the deer net and buried the bottom of the net so nothing will burrow under it. I should do measurements at some point to figure out its total volume. Its huge. lol.· 0 replies
We have 3 apple trees, 3 cherry trees, and 1 nectarine tree in there. We still have to move 3 of those trees into their permanent locations (they are only 1 or 2 year old trees so its still possible to dig them up) and we have to plant a new apricot tree in there. I prepped the two rows for veggies last month but theres alot of weed whacking to do still and plants to move. We have 4 grape vines, 4 blueberry bushes and multiple raspberry plants to move. I started a bunch of veggies from seed and those tomatoes are still in an unused bath tub in my house with a light over them getting bigger every day. I'm looking forward to getting everything planted and done so all this gardening can give me a break.

Well my dryer broke after about 15 years and multiple repairs I've done over those years. I had to buy a new dryer. So far so good. I was finally able to get my laundry done again and my bathroom no longer smells like dirty socks and febreeze.· 3 replies

FML my pressure tank is failing for my well. Its getting replaced next week. Getting a new whole house water filter installed too along with some new valves and safety upgrades. Props to the well company employee for giving me the tip of hooking up an air compressor to the pressure tank to put some air in the bladder to get the system gimping along until the repair work is done. I miss public water. lol.· 1 reply

This has been a busy summer. I'm almost looking forward to winter so I can get a break from all the lawn mowing and outside projects. Hopefully the snow blower I bought this year works good so I'll have alot of free time this winter to get caught up on things. When I've had free time I've been playing Final Fantasy X over the last 5 months and I've somehow finally hit 100 hours on it. Lol. Only took me about half a year. I still didn't beat it yet but I'm at the end game stuff now with the monster arena and omega ruins.· 0 replies

Thanks! The color is "Blueprint". But depending on the light outside it looks either dark blue or purple.
