Hey guys, I’ve got little to no knowledge on 3D printing and even less experience, so go easy on me. I will most likely be using words I don’t understand.

I live in a hot and humid country in the EU, and given my circumstances and the aforementioned lack of knowledge, I’m considering a closed enclosure model from the company everyone hates because it’s cheap, available, and famed for its ease of use.

I’m no stranger to tinkering with everything, but I do want to get started with something that’s just plug and play (or close enough to it). And even after I jailbreak it (which I assume is possible?), I really don’t want the tinkering to be part of the hobby itself.

My questions are: Size: Would I regret getting a 256x256x256 mm^3 sized one? Most prints I’ve seen fit easily, but there are a few that require more space.

Filaments: Where to buy, how to store, are all of them compatible with extruder-type printers? How do I check?

Accessories: I’ve seen nozzles and accessory packs being sold but I have no idea what they’re for. Can I print upgrades? Also what the heck does the Combo printer add-on do?

Alternatives: I’m not married to the P2S. Feel free to suggest alternatives. Thanks!

Hey guys, I just got my Steam Machine and, having never owned or used a Deck, I want to know how you guys are tackling the resolution issue.

It’s hooked up to a 4K 165Hz monitor, which I know is not something the Machine can ever hope to achieve in modern 3D games, but it IS capable of it in the Steam interface and in 2D or old 3D games (majority of games I play).

Issue #1: The performance overlay is too small. I haven’t figured out which of the scaling options affect it (if any)

Issue #2: Some games don’t have AI upscaling, or have it hidden when they detect they’re running on a “Steam Deck”. I tried Another Crab’s Treasure, which barely runs at 30-40fps at 4K, but often hits 120 at 1080p with high settings. Blurry text is the bane of my existence, and I’m seriously conflicted about which resolution to use. Is there any way to inject FSR(4) into games that don’t already support it?

Issue #3: Proton. By default, do games have their Proton version set per game, or globally? Asking because I assume a proper “verified” program would tag the tested software version, but you never know. Is there any risk to setting games to use the latest version? How common are feature/compatibility regressions?

Any tips and tricks welcome, i’m a complete noob when it comes to SteamOS

So youtube started ignoring “request desktop site” requests from mobile browsers again, even from tablets.

This is frustrating for a few reasons, namely because extensions tend to work best in the desktop view, and also because youtube disables certain features (transcripts, notification list) in the mobile view.

I like to avoid useragent spoofing whenever possible as it’s helping chrome’s dominance over the web

If anyone else is looking for a workaround, add &app=desktop to the URL

Anyway, hope this helps someone!
