Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Absolutely, and that’s what I think people should do. I can appreciate the neat design touches - integrated high quality wifi and steam controller networking / antennas support, light bar , remote on / off and in particular the tighter... -

dr.stevil replied to the thread WTB: Steam Controller (2026) if you don't want yours.Are you still looking for one? Managed to snag 2 of them and really don’t use the second at all.

dr.stevil replied to the thread Steam machine / steam cube / GabeCube.I mean, you technically can do exactly that. Build your own mini-ITX machine and install steamOS.

dr.stevil replied to the thread Steam Controller.I think that applies to the triggers on the ps5 controller but AFAIK the rest of the functionality works ootb wirelessly via steam
-
dr.stevil replied to the thread Steam Controller.If you have a ps4 or ps5 controller, you can get the exact same functionality so don’t really need the steam controller for that, but the extra 4 back buttons (plus the dedicated steam and quick access buttons) make it worth having IMO

Interesting. Maybe I'll have to look at it in the future. That's my only issue right now with my TV setup right now is having a mouse on the end table next to the couch for launching games, YouTube, Netflix, etc.

dr.stevil replied to the thread Steam Controller.If you’re using the controller on a TV setup, they are essential (assuming you don’t have a keyboard and mouse hooked up). Even games with proper controller support often have launchers that require a mouse to navigate. Plus as others have...

You can use them for games that support a mouse cursor at the same time which can make things like inventory management and menu usage easier (highly game dependent). You can also set them up as custom hotkeys; e.g. assign them for direct access...

Assuming you got the box, how does the wife like it?

dr.stevil replied to the thread [Poll] Steam Machine 2026 = Build / Buy / Pass + SURVEY.I’m not sure if she “likes” it per se but she lets me keep it out in the open lol W for me either way lol

dr.stevil replied to the thread Steam machine / steam cube / GabeCube.I got to say that I wasn’t expecting much out of the steam machine after all the not-so-positive reviews and assumed I’d regret the impulse buy but have to say I’m pleasantly surprised. It’s super tiny which makes it easy to convince the wife to...

Now I need to figure out how to...

This makes it pretty easy for each version. I would suggest not trying Tahoe unless you have some insane hardware. https://github.com/sickcodes/docker-osx

You can always (if possible/have the option) take it out of the case and build it into a nook/cabinet/whatever in your TV stand

dr.stevil replied to the thread [Poll] Steam Machine 2026 = Build / Buy / Pass + SURVEY.It’s nice if you have that option. I pitched the wife on doing that with my basic mid-tower (looks more like a subwoofer than a PC) and got shot down. My only real option is a very small form factor if I want it in the living room :(

dr.stevil replied to the thread [Poll] Steam Machine 2026 = Build / Buy / Pass + SURVEY.IMO, skip Bazzite and go straight to CachyOS. The atomic model is attractive in theory but when you have to start OSTree layering, it can get dicey on updates and muck everything up. I started with Bazzite, learned the hard way that layering can...
