Sounds like you need some more hobbies to throw at it. :-)

You could always inflate the numbers by giving it artificial load but I imagine that breaks a ToS somewhere.

I use Steam + Proton in an LXC so I can share the graphics card among several other containers. It works quite well with streaming once I got it set up.

I was going to recommend Logseq as well. I use the git plug-in on laptops and Working Copy (git on iOS) and some automations to sync it on mobile.

If you stream games or play multiplayer you may want to consider disabling that anyway as it dramatically improves the WIFI speed and reliability.

Most of the time it’s pretty simple to play non-Steam games. It’s made even better with Decky and SteamGridDB.

In a similar vain, enabling ssh and using that for config or moving files around has saved me a lot of typing.

My understanding is many SD cards have sub-optimal wear leveling compared with SSDs so there may be more to it than just writes per sector.

If it helps, I took mine apart this last weekend with no issues whatsoever.

No typo. I had my games on a 1TB microSD card and now they are on a 2TB SSD.

SanDisk 1TB Extreme microSDXC UHS-I. I play a lot of Diablo IV and Forza Horizon 5 and the loading screens are much faster.

My observation is that the SD card tops out around 30mb/s.

I did this for a while until recently I put in a 2TB SSD and the performance difference is night and day.

I at least suspect there will be a community porting some variant of SteamOS to the more popular handhelds.

Sometimes I’ll find myself streaming the Xbox or PS5 on the couch in front of the TV with it turned off.

I also have around 3GB used for pictrs and I’m not really sure the best way to see what all content is in there.

Before I got a Deck I thought the hype could not be real. It’s over a year later and I still can’t put it down.

Not only does it work well for Steam games, it’s also really convenient for streaming PlayStation and Xbox games.

Diablo IV runs really well on the Steam Deck.

Advanced data protection is across your entire account, not per device. According to Apple’s documentation they rotate the keys locally on your devices and then delete them from their services so they no longer have a key to give.

I find debuggers are used a lot more on confusing legacy code.

Lately, monitoring tools such as OpenTelemetry have replaced a lot of my use of profilers.

My understanding is that an aircraft picked it up and subsequent searches haven’t found anything. Hopefully this is a good sign but it doesn’t seem convincing that the sub is actually what was heard.
