I was wondering, is there any reason why I should buy the Steam Deck abroad in France instead of in my home of Canada?
So I (Canadian) am surprising my friend (from France) with a Steam Deck in October when I go visit them. It will just be the cheaper LCD version, since they won’t care about (or notice) the difference in quality.
Aside from buying adapters for the plug, I literally can’t think of a reason why I should buy it directly in Europe as opposed to getting it in Canada. It would be a lot easier since I can have it delivered to my address, don’t need a specific day and time for it to be delivered, don’t have to deal with any issues of ordering things in a foreign country (sometimes you need to have a local address to order and have things delivered, etc)
That said, I wanted to still check and see if there’s something I’m forgetting or just outright unaware of. I know there’s specific power requirements for the Steam Deck, but mine worked just fine with an adapter when I was last there in January.
So you have to pay taxes if you bring your phone with you ? (Since it is probably more expensive than 430€)
That a doesn't seem to be how it goes.
Technically, yes. And you would be able to ask for those taxes back upon returning to your home country (with the same phone). But since this would create huge queues at the airports, nobody actually enforces that.
However, travelling with e.g. 2 Steam Decks or with one in its original packaging raises suspicion and you could get stopped when going through the green portal at the airport.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is once again responding to internal opposition within the Labour Party with force, echoing the tactics his government has used to try to suppress Palestine solidarity groups across the UK. After dozens of MPs rebelled against a draconian welfare bill that would have devastated the lives of thousands of disabled people, Starmer responded by suspending four of them.

Des is one of the sweetest, most caring, and compassionate people you could ever meet who's currently experiencing terrifying state repression.
Write him a letter to let both him and facility staff know he is not alone and people are paying attention to what happens to him.

Des is not alone!
Beloved friend and comrade Des is currently being held on scary and serious charges. While he's being detained, many of us are eager to reach out to remind him how much we care about him and that we will not forgot him. Incarceration is a terrifying and isolating experience, and it’s up to us to show him all of our support.
I wanna write to Des! But how?
Address the letter to:
Daniel Rolando Sanchez Estrada
#95099-511
FMC Fort Worth
Federal Medical Center
PO Box 15330
Fort Worth, Texas 76119
Write only in blue or black ink. No stickers, glitter, or whiteout. Include his first and last name as well as ID number, page numbers, date, and a return address at the top of each sheet. An example for the top of each page could look like this:
First Name, Last Name
ID Number
Page Number X/X
Date
Return Address
DO NOT mention anything about the case or charges. Saying things like “I’m sorry this is happening to you” or “I wish you were out here with all of us” is a perfectly fine way to let a person know you think the case against them is bullshit.
ALL correspondence is read, scanned, and cataloged by facility staff. Do not say anything you don't want read on Fox News or in court about you or Des.
¡Des no está solo!
Nuestro querido amigo y camarada Des está actualmente detenido y enfrenta cargos graves y aterradores.
Ahora que él está detenido, muchxs de nosotrxs ansiamos recordarle cuánto lo queremos y lo mucho que nos preocupamos por él y que no lo olvidaremos.
El encarcelamiento es una experiencia aterradora y aislante, y depende de nosotrxs demostrarle todo nuestro apoyo.
¡Quiero escribirle a Des! ¿Pero cómo?
Escribe la carta a:

Escribe solo en tinta azul o negra. Sin stickers, pegatinas, brillo o corrector. Incluye tu nombre y apellido, así como el número de identificación, numera las páginas y escribe el remitente en la parte superior de cada hoja. Un ejemplo para la parte superior de cada página podría verse así:

Fecha
Remitente
NO menciones nada sobre el caso o los cargos. Decir cosas como "Lamento que esto te esté pasando" o "Ojalá estuvieras aquí con todxs nosotrxs" es una buena forma de hacerle saber a alguien que crees que el caso en su contra es una mierda.
TODA la correspondencia es leída, escaneada y catalogada por el personal de la instalación. No digas nada que no quieras leer en Fox News o en la corte sobre ti o sobre Des.
¡Cada carta es un momento de fuga!
No more pussyfooting around. Police have had enough.
I could never figure out what's your issue with it.
1. If you mute a thread, no notifications show up for that thread
2. If you have someone muted and someone replies to that account, that reply will generate a notif unless you have that thread muted.
The only recent change in mute filtering I know of is that domains of users don't get passed into the word filter. That got merged along with the Themes V3 stuff and I think is in the bundled FE.
Either way I've never encountered the issue you have, since I still get replies to Suiseiseki in my notifs even though I muted him and his replies to me don't show up in my notifs.
Idk, maybe try deleting notifications from the notifications table that are older than 3 months or something and vacuum full the table after. That's my blind shot into the dark. But that solved my notifications refusing to load, not creating them,
@phnt it's not just thread mutes that are a problem- if anyone you have muted is tagged on a thread, you won't get notifs, regardless of your show muted replies setting. i'm also not getting a lot of other notifs now just seemingly at random from people i follow. i checked the oban queue and nothing is clogged either.
just haven't had time to mess with debugging it
