[HN] InfluxDB Cloud shuts down in Belgium; some weren't notified before data deletion
  • What the fuck. Why didn't they just shut down the service but keep the data around?? I'm very sorry to all the engineers scrambling this weekend because of this idiocy

    [Help] How can I play games on my TV while still using the steam deck as a controller?
  • Thanks for the responses everyone! I ended up getting a long HDMI cable and using it with a usb-c hub I already had. The setup is pretty bulky so I might end up velcroing it per morgan's comment to reduce the pressure on the connection. And having a cable run across the whole room is... less than ideal. I think if I end up using this a lot, I'd probably just opt for a Steam Controller

  • I want to play games like civ that are better played using mouse controls via the touch pads, so I want to use the steam deck as a controller. But the screen is a little too small and some games don't have good ui scaling so I want to be able to play on the TV. What's the best/easiest/cheapest way I can play on the TV while still using the steam deck as a controller? I have a Vizio tv that doesn't support steam link but does support casting. Thanks!
