FFS, just get a laptop and stop pretending 😂
Haters gonna hate.
Got a laptop, use it for laptop shit. Got a Steamdeck, rarely need to do heavy typing on it, but when modding games I have to connect a keyboard and mouse to do so efficiently. Saw this solution and thought "hell yeah, great idea!". Bringing an easy to store/portable keyboard around for occasional use is way better than bringing a laptop and controller around when all you want to do is some gaming.
Give me a laptop with the same graphic power and games optimization for the same prize and we can talk.
Have fun on your tiny screen
Wow cool. That's Basically turning it into a simple cyberdeck
The first thing I did when I got my deck is change its hostname to cyberdeck
I did a cyberdeck chuckle too when first doing this square peg in round hole -type exercise 😄
Damn I have to consider those. Using the terminal with the screen keyboard is pain due to missing keys
SSH
Most terminal needs I do through SSH.
I know, and I do the same. But its annoying still, I want to do everything on the local machine
I use barrier when I need a keyboard in desktop mode. It works well. I just need to remember to turn off the server afterwards, or my desktop can't fold !
fit perfectly
Cool! That fits so well. Does the steam deck overheat sitting like that in the case?
It'll certainly suck up loose fibers from the case. There are foldable stands out there that become very tiny when folded. That's way better than clogging up the vents with dust and fibers.
I have a noname chinese case on the deck, and it's got a but of a lump in the back which clears the intake vent. that helps. i'll only use desktop stuff set up this way, the fan doesn't come on.
My fave travel keyboard. So sad MS never made a USBC version.
Does that keyboard fit in the case while closed? I don't need a keyboard with the deck often, but it would be nice to have one with it all the time for that off chance I do. The times I need a keyboard I really need a keyboard.
the kb fits the elastic in the back when carrying, not inside like this tdough.
How nice is that Microsoft foldable keyboard to type on I'm currently using a Microsoft Ergonomic 4000 which I got for free and it's a bit iffy tbh
Does the keyboard fit in the case when closed?
It might fit on top of the screen if one doesn't have a body case fitted to the Deck like I do (there's a kickstand bulging the backside of the case). But I carry the keyboard under the elastic band under the official case, giving the official case the added super power of being able to stand upright :D
Does that even close
