last rechost:

my steamdeck stopped booting around new years (likely due to plugging in to faulty charger) that is not the very computer part

the last thing i was doing with it before it broke was trying to set it up for emulation. the replacement arrived earlier today, i got the setup to where it was (after reinstalling stuff from my steam library), and i have already had to ssh into it to rename some of my PS2 games on the SD card to try and stop Steam ROM Manager picking up various ratchet & clank games as a different r&c game that was only released on a different platform and this did not work

people who are Very Computer will find ways to have Very Computer problems with anything

in reply to @Dex's post:

the steamdeck looks like a fancy computer, at least, though with a linux desktop already i'm unsure when i might ever grab one...

i might recommend though instead of just saying 'last rechost' if you're looking to comment on something without adding it as a share, instead or also provide a link. even following you there were three posts between this and the thing you were actually referencing

That's always been something that kinda freaks me out with USB-C. Like, I've had crappy microUSB cables and chargers, but I've never seen instances of "this isn't actually USB it just uses the same connectors and if you plug it into a USB device it'll break it" before.

Like I get it, the connector is good, but what a shitshow of a standard if that mistake is even possible on some devices.
