The actual statistic of the headline is that people surveyed reported that over the last two years they "sometimes" or "regularly" no longer ate three meals a day because of inflation and the fall in their purchasing power.

Exactly. I'd be reluctant to try any of the other games that OP names because I "don't have the time" and yet I have 200+ hours in DRG.

Of games that I've ONLY played on the SteamDeck, I think Dead Cells is probably my favourite.

Does this mean we can expect a glut of cheap 3rd party controllers on the market that can be used for PC gaming?

A great book but I don't know if I'd recommend it as a "get into reading" book.

Similar to some countries banning games that depict skulls or blood, these countries have banned games that depict gambling. This is different from banning games that contain loot boxes or actual gambling.

I switched my Alexa to Australian female voice as I found it less annoying than the default UK female one.

I've played a bit of Tales and Tactics this week. It's a single player roguelike auto-battler made by some Slay the Spire mod developers.
I've also started playing Into the Breach on the SteamDeck. This is my second time trying to get into it. For some reason the first time I found it too hard so this time I started with a couple of runs on easy to ease myself in to it.

Yes! For some reason, she's way less annoying than the Brit or American options.

I would love to have the ability to know for any journey, no matter how complex, what time I need to leave to arrive on time.

You could also use one of those water pick things that use a pressurised water jet to clean between your teeth. After I started using one regularly my dentist even remarked on how much better my gums were looking.

Just hopping on this post to say that Steam actually did a really nice Top 100 Steam Deck games for their Summer Sale.
I got Hades and Dead Cells in the sale.

I've had a curious eye on the game for a while but the need for the Ubisoft launcher put me off. How is it on Steam? Steam Deck compatibility would be a big bonus for me too.

A good response. Civlised and to-the-point.

Point extraction. No mule and having to lug big crystals around. No thanks.
Hi all, I have a wireless keyboard that I use with my SteamDeck. They keyboard has the ususal 'windows' and 'menu' buttons. I was wondering if there is a way to set these to work as the 'steam' and '...' buttons on the Deck?

Nothing has displaced Deep Rock Galactic for me for quite a while. It's just so much fun to play - with friends, strangers, or solo - all are good.

Return of the Obra Dinn and The Outer Wilds both for sure. Both have common themes of solving an over-arching puzzle by exploration and examination of an environment.

Not a new thing in China. I've seen similar robots on patrol outside major railway stations back in 2019. Those ones seemed to be equipped with facial recognition and tasked with basically detecting people who are loitering and telling them to move on.

There's no reason to do that with an electric motor (as far as I know). It would only reduce the efficiency. Maybe it's something that the car enthusiasts could get on board with though?

I think of kbin as 'Kabin' so something like 'Kabby the log cabin' would be what I'd design if I had any artistic skill

I live in a country where manual transmission is the default. I drive a manual and I'm fine with it. This idea of fake manual transmission is bizarre to me. Who is it for? Car enthusiasts will know it's fake and avoid it and surely your average driver will not care and would actually appreciate the simplicity of automatic transmission.

I really hate the FOMO that often seems to be part of the marketing for many games these days. Pre-order bonuses, limited time events, and keeping up with the meta are all off-putting for me. If your game is good then it should be possible to pick it up 2 years after release and still have a good experience.

Also in the truck driving bucket - Snowrunner. The focus is on off road trucking, mud and snow physics, with a winch that you can use to unstick yourself.
PSA: If you want to try the jet boots in a mission they can be found in the second mission of this week's Deep Dive.

I still have a second hand IKEA desk that I bought off a guy from work when I first moved to the area and had no furniture. It's just the right size and has a keyboard shelf on rollers which seems hard to find these days.

Totally agree.
There was a time when I would avoid Steam versions of games as much as I could because of the bad interface and frequent crashes, but they continued to improve the platform year after year until it became a model of what a games platform should be.
I'd still slightly prefer to buy on GoG due to it being DRM free but I recently got a Steam Deck so the ease of use begins to tip the equation in favour of Steam again.
