Disneyland’s new Star Wars droids are controlled by Steam Decks
An eagle-eyed Disneyland visitor spotted three staff members holding Steam Decks to control the new droids being rolled out.

I mean, why not, right? Readily available hardware with a screen that you can just slap your own software or OS on.
Must have been real nice for the developers building software for it, considering it's just Linux as opposed to some proprietary nonsense.
It’s perfect. All the software can be developed and tested on any Linux distribution and matched to the hardware and then run without any modification needed and become instantly portable when needed for demo.
I wonder if the steam deck is sold at a loss or not like other consoles
I believe the base EMMC model is sold at a loss, the other ones make some money for Valve if i'm not mistaken...
At least this isn't that $100 internet subscription computer from the 2000s, that people purchased just to erase the subscription-based OS and slap a fresh copy of Win95/98 on it 🤣 poor Netpliance
Ah so that's why it took so long for me to get mine...
