  • My personal target is 105% of the performing mark, when I’m in a churn and earn job somewhere that I don’t want to promote.

    That wiggle room is enough to keep me above the performing mark if there are any productivity impactors outside of my control that my company refuses to adjust for (that has happened to me in jobs before), and it also keeps me off of bottom-performer lists when layoffs roll through. And it’s barely more than the bare minimum. Win / win / win.




  • You’re welcome! Though I’m genuinely bummed that it’s not 100% fully working for you.

    One of the great things about the Deck is that we have essentially and functionally the same hardware and OS for our systems, so I was hoping that things like this just work the same for everyone… we don’t have the challenges of the rest of the PC community, where every single person is running a different configuration of parts. 🙂


  • I’m sorry to hear that you were having issues setting up the docking script!

    Without seeing what you were doing, it’s kind of tough to know where the issue was. I know I personally don’t have to change anything with the resolution properties on mine to make it work, it still is set to Default for me. It’s my correct resolution so I don’t have to scroll anywhere, everything is exactly where it is in native (in fact I’m using it right now to access Firefox and be on Lemmy 🤗 )

    Were you able to change the height and width numbers in the script to match your monitor? The example I posted above is what I use for my 2560 x 1440 monitor, but you’ll get a weird result if your resolution is something different and you don’t change it.





  • Also, never answer the question, “Do you know why I pulled you over?” with anything that sounds like an admission. They’re fishing and looking to have you confess to a traffic violation.

    The honest answer is “No, I’m not sure why you pulled me over,” because it’s true. There are a million motivations they might have come up with to pull you over, and you’re neither psychic or telepathic.









  • Are you using the wireless dongle? Deck doesn’t seem to support it by default; when I looked into it, people had to do stuff through the console in order to make the dongle be picked up through the Deck.

    I don’t have an xbox controller, so I can’t endorse what I found as being correct or safe… you have to give whatever it is system access, so be careful and look into it further so that you can make sure that you trust it.

    But basically I just searched xbox 360 controller steam deck and reached reddit posts and YT videos covering it. If you decide to proceed, make sure you’re using current info, because apparently older methods expired when Steam OS went to 3.5… and maybe they did again going to 3.6, though I didn’t see that mentioned. Good luck!
