It says that it's arch based with KDE plasma

@special-boy @LukeAlmighty @pasture @steamdb nice. Honestly dunno what i'd use this for. I rather just upgrade my PC and use remote play

@lewdthewides @LukeAlmighty @pasture @steamdb Surely they must be including some sort of custom software setup to run windows games or are they just gonna make you install wine to play 80% of the library

@Guy-on-Poast @lewdthewides @LukeAlmighty @steamdb they have their own wine fork

@lewdthewides @LukeAlmighty @pasture @steamdb In the FAQ on reservations at the end of linked page, it says under “Do I need a Steam account to use Steam Deck?”

“The default Steam Deck experience requires a Steam account (it’s free!). Games are purchased and downloaded using the Steam Store. That said, Steam Deck is a PC so you can install third party software and operating systems.”

I'll wait for reviewers to confirm this info, but damn.... If true, I might loose quite some cash.

@ThatWouldBeTelling @pasture @lewdthewides @steamdb@twtr.plus
You know what? Fuck it, I'm in.
5 euros on steam and ready to reserve it in 20h.

@steamdb @LukeAlmighty @ThatWouldBeTelling @pasture @lewdthewides wish I could! Considering asking my sis to reserve it for me. Not in a privileged nation :<

@Locksmith @pasture @lewdthewides @ThatWouldBeTelling @steamdb@twtr.plus
Now that you mention it, any idea if Czech Republic has the priviledge?

@LukeAlmighty @Locksmith @lewdthewides @ThatWouldBeTelling @steamdb yes, you're in the EU

@Locksmith @LukeAlmighty @lewdthewides @pasture @steamdb Per the FAQ, for the first 48 hours of reservations your sister needs to have made a Steam purchase prior to June of this year:

“Why is my account not able to place a reservation until Sunday?

“We are aware of potential unauthorized resellers, and as an additional safeguard to ensure a fair ordering process, we’ve added a requirement that the reserver has made a purchase on Steam prior to June 2021 for the first 48 hours of reservation availability.”

@pasture @steamdb @LukeAlmighty @ThatWouldBeTelling @lewdthewides oh, I would just give her my details to log in to my account. Other than that, I think she has a steam account from years ago that she doesn’t use.
