    except his SteamDeck video. Still salty about that one.

    edit: for context he complained about how it’s not user repair-able and valve said not to touch the battery because it might explode (which isn’t exactly accurate) for legal reasons

    however… COMPARE IT TO THE NINTENDO SWITCH! in terms of repairability the steam deck is miles ahead and you can actually install stuff in the hardware you paid hundreds of bucks for

    he had all food points in a vacuum but like Nintendo is over there just setting stuff on fire and he’s complaining about the SteamDeck boiling water

      Louis does that a lot.

      Valve made the Steam Deck super repairable, gave us a literal disassembly tutorial, and partnered with iFixit, and the only thing they mentioned is that opening a device with thread lock will make it weaker and that batteries can be dangerous.

      Louis doesn’t actually like that users don’t need his input to repair this device, and feels threatened by iFixit, so suddenly repairability isn’t enough and Steam Deck = bad.
