  The games that will play natively on the steam frame will have to support it on a game level, but for streaming it’s handled at the os level through “Foveated Streaming”. So the PC isn’t getting an fps boost from it but it does allow the latency to be very low through streaming.

  I’m not sure that the eye tracking data will be passed through for foveated rendering from the PC side though I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t. In that case you get both render and streaming which would be incredible

  I assume the same way the steam deck gets replacement sticks. You’d replace the entire thumb cap and run a wire under and to a specific connector. So its unlikely you’ll get a third party solution with capacitive touch but getting official parts shouldn’t be impossible either, just more tedious.

  Wasn’t log4j originally found by 2b2t players, then used maliciously and reported later on, then going onto get fixed by every major server framework like bukkit, paper, fabric, and more?

  I wholeheartedly agree

  He actively wanted out as seen by the desperate text sent to his mother saying how he “felt like a hostage” that was read aloud by one of his abusers on stream, but due to coersion both financially and socially. In one of the streams his abusers openly brag about how if he doesnt participate in their “game” they’ll take the keys for his car and his apartment until he does.

  There’s generally a lot of factors that add up to staying in an abusive situation. From his point of view its likely that there didn’t seem much of an option for him outside of this.

  I’m Pretty sure the guillikit Kong 3 had magnetic buttons or mechanical ones similar to this where it was a small switch inside that you could swap out when worn out. That hasn’t seemed to be that big an issue considering its just rubber on circuit board action. I could be wrong but what about this seems less repairable?
