Im curious if anybody uses their steam deck for something other than gaming? I saw a dude use it as a kareoke machine. I also saw a dude use it as a teleprompter (weirdest by far). With all the software you can buy on steam, what are creative uses for the steam de k that isnt gaming related?

        Uh, are you trying to remote debug CUPS now? Thumbs up! Doing the goddess’ work! ^(Good luck, mate! Hope your username’s not going to be the program here XD)

          Fair enough, XD. I thought I’d give the question an ask, " a popular printer" is not exactly the most helpful thing in the world, Even if it’s something for future, note that you just need to avoid.

      As it’s a Linux machine, it uses CUPS/IPP (and some other things like hplip) for managing printers. Totally, uuh, works™ with almost every printer out of the box.
