steamdeck stream

Testing,

testing. Hello.

I need to plug in a mic. This sounds so

bad. Wait, I got a mic.

Do you remember this one? Let's see if

this works.

Do you remember my clip-on mic?

This seems promising, like it's actually

gonna work.

I can't believe you can livestream off a

Steam Deck. Okay, I'm gonna plug in the

mic. Hopefully it's not weird.

Does it

sound different?

No, it's not plugged in. Well, it is

plugged in, but it's not using it.

Raven 2 audio processor headphone.

Microphone. Do you think that's it?

Headset microphone and internal

microphone.

Hello?

Hello? Hello? I think this is it.

Hello? Hello? Hello? Oh, this sounds

okay. Seems a bit— seems a bit quiet,

doesn't it?

Hold on, it's all tangled.

Oh wow, this could be a great livestream

setup. I can't believe all the things you

can do on a Steam Deck.

How do I see the chat? Oh, I can see on my

It's a bit Quiet but way better.

There's like a weird crackling sound

again, isn't there? Bluetooth headset

for the phone.

What just happened?

Headset.

Um, what else could I do?

I wonder if I could get like a wireless

mic and if that would be any good,

because I've seen a lot of YouTubers use

wireless mics. I don't know if I could

turn up the gain on this.

What do you think of this mic? Also,

the video format is like a weird square.

There's a background buzz. Yeah, I think

it's this mic.

There's like a crackling sound.

Hold on, let me plug in a different mic.

I'm gonna plug in my Blue Yeti. That'll be

funny. Blue Yeti in a Steam Deck.

I already got my webcam in the Steam Deck.

You can plug anything into a Steam Deck.

It's funny. Oh,

what just happened?

Um, plug this into the USB hub.

Then it's

so hard using the trackpad.

Yeti.

Hello? Hello?

Testing.

Hello? Hello? Hello?

Testing. Wow, it sounds good.

It sounds Blue Yeti-ish. Can't be let

down by Blue Yeti. Wow, I can actually

livestream off my Steam Deck. I can't

believe this. For some reason in my mind,

I thought the Steam Deck wouldn't be

powerful enough and it'd be all laggy.

How bloody powerful is this thing?

It, it seems to be unbelievably powerful.

I can play Elden Ring on max graphics.

Does it get hot? Yeah, it gets pretty hot,

but the fan isn't blowing at all right

now. But it's— the fan is moving a tiny

bit, but you can barely hear it.

Does it get hot? Yeah, it gets pretty hot.

Okay, so the next problem is, um, this is

not Streamlabs, this is OBS. I don't

think OBS has stuff like chat overlays.

I should plug my mouse in as well, would

make things a lot easier. Look at this,

let's see if I can show you. Look, I'm on

the Steam Deck.

This is so cool. It means I don't

have to bring a laptop when I go

traveling. And my biggest worry about not

bringing a laptop was, how am I gonna

livestream on my phones? I don't like

livestreaming from my phone because it

just doesn't look very good.

I could open the chat on my iPad,

couldn't I?

Am I using my phone as a webcam? No, I'm

using a webcam as a webcam.

Let me see what I can do on OBS. It just

says I can add browser, color source,

image, a slideshow, media source,

a scene, Text window

capture.

How would I do text-to-speech?

I don't think you can. I can't get

Streamlabs on Linux. Can you?

Is Streamlabs on Linux?

How to install Streamlabs OBS on Linux.

Linux, it's hard to say that.

How do I get chat on There's

no chat overlay on OBS either.

Is it streaming?

Is it streaming? Yeah, it's streaming.

Um, what can I do?

Oh, so hard to use the touchscreen

when it's on desktop mode.

I don't know why there's black bars on

the side. Resolution.

Aha, 720p.

Well, that's very big.

Oh, now there's black bars at the top.

It's like a movie, the black bars.

Hmm.

Testing. I accidentally pulled the plug

Testing.

Testing. I accidentally pulled the plug

out. Wow, it actually

works. Um.

Problem is I can't put anything onto the

screen, and it probably doesn't

have text-to-speech.

Hmm.

But obviously I'm not going to bring this

massive Blue Yeti with me to Thailand when

I go to Thailand.

Some software with more features exists.

I don't know, because this is Linux and

there's not much available. It's got

Firefox and OBS.

I'm surprised it has OBS. It's got Discord

Says this program can be run on Linux,

macOS, Windows. Streamlabs Desktop

is only available on laptops.

Maybe I can download it from the

Streamlabs website.

Install Windows on Steam Deck. Yeah, that

would be better, but isn't it complicated

to install Windows? Can I be mod?

No, because my, my Twitch is dead.

There's nothing to moderate.

I have zero Twitch subs. So sad.

My Twitch channel made 7 cents this

month from ads.

Oh, my poor Twitch channel.

Did anyone else get a weird message from

me on Twitch about a weird-looking

Discord Nitro link? I think my

Twitch got hacked because it sent out this

message to everyone saying click this link

to get free Nitro or something. Most

people didn't see it because they don't

care anymore.

Yeah, most of you didn't get it because

most of you haven't messaged me, but if

you did message me in the past, it sent

out the same message to everyone. I don't

know how my Twitch would get hacked. It

was really weird. And then if they did

hack my Twitch, they didn't mess anything

with it. They just sent out like a

phishing link to everyone. I don't know

what that was about.

You won't see it now because I'm

not going to send it again unless I get

hacked again. So what's the stream quality

like? Do you think it's good?

Pretty much the same as my, my laptop

stream, isn't it? So what's the stream

like? It's good.

Pretty much the same as my— it's a bit

dark. Well, that's just because I'm

not sitting near my light, but it's

all the same gear I use for my normal

streams. Same webcam, same mic.

So it should look the same and sound

Plug in your AI webcam. Do you mean the

moving one? I don't really use that as a

webcam anymore. I use it as like a CCTV

camera so I can see what's going on

outside.

The mic sounds bad. It doesn't sound bad.

What do you mean? It's an expensive,

nice mic. The mic sounds bad.

It doesn't sound bad. What do you mean?

It sounds good to me.

So what can I do with

this? This is what I really wanted. I

wanted like a really portable computer

that could do OBS streaming.

And then you can plug stuff into it.

Because I could plug in my power bank and

then put this in my bag and then have the

webcam somewhere, but what am I going to

do for a microphone? That plug— that

clip-on one I tried earlier sounds really

bad. Maybe I can buy a more expensive

clip-on mic. I don't know why I care.

It's not like I'm going to go and do IRL

streams, is it? But it's just nice being

able to. I don't know why I can't.

The built-in mic sounds really bad, plus

the built-in mic is right next to the fan

exhaust, so all you can hear is the whole

time.

I feel like a Bluetooth wireless mic might

be laggy and then the audio would be out

of sync. Maybe it won't be.

What could I try? I've got a smaller mic,

but it's still pretty big.

I've got this,

but it's still pretty chunky.

I tried it in Manchester, remember? I

plugged everything into my MacBook Air and

I put the MacBook Air into my backpack.

And then the MacBook Air started

overheating inside of the backpack. It got

really hot. And I put the webcam in

my jacket and I had the mic, the clip-on

mic. That was funny, but I never used it

because it's just so much fussing.

So I guess I'll just livestream like this

when I get to Thailand. I booked my ticket

for Thailand, bought the plane ticket, I

bought health insurance, I bought— I even

booked hotels that I'm not going to use

because I needed to fill out an

application form for a visa. They wanted

me to post, to upload proof of booking a

hotel for the entire trip. I'm not

staying in hotels for the entire trip.

I'm going to stay with this Thai woman,

hopefully. So I booked this really cheap

hostel for 60 days, but it's got free

cancellation.

Am I gonna stream on YouTube? Yeah, in

Thailand I'll stream on YouTube. Just

testing out Steam Deck on Twitch first.

Am I gonna stream on YouTube? Yeah, in

Thailand I'll stream on YouTube. Just

testing out. Do I need to submit

proof of negative COVID test? I don't

think I do. It said you

either need vaccine proof that you've been

vaccinated or a negative PCR test.

I can just show them my COVID pass.

I can't believe anyone still cares anymore

about stupid COVID vaccine passes and

stuff. It's over. When are they gonna Stop

going on and on about COVID When

was the last time you knew anyone who got

COVID is so 2020.

Why don't you make YouTube videos anymore?

What are you talking about? I've been

making YouTube videos every day. Haven't

you checked my channel?

Tim K got booted for not doing that.

For not doing what?

Negative COVID test.

But I thought he was living in

Philippines. Why would he need a negative

test?

Well, first I have to get my, my visa. I

submitted it today. Hopefully I've done

everything right. They asked some weird

questions like upload picture of your

spouse or children under 20. What, a

picture of their face? I don't have a

spouse. I didn't even say I was married.

I put single and it's asking me for proof

of spouse. So I uploaded MS Paint

piece of text saying I do not have a

spouse or children. And then they ask you

for proof of booking of hotels for the

entire trip. So they expect me to book 90

days of hotels all at once.

I thought you hated Twitch. Oh, I do. I

just use it to test out streaming stuff.

Twitch is so rubbish. I mean, nothing ever

goes viral. You never ever get new

viewers. It's impossible to grow on

Twitch. How do you even grow on Twitch

unless you're like a really sexy girl with

your tits out? And then you've got

these, you've got these huge massive

Twitch streamers who have like 100K

viewers and they're playing Minecraft.

And I've never heard of these people ever.

It's just like some random generic

American guy with a beard playing

Minecraft. He's got 100K viewers and I've

never heard of this guy ever. And he's got

like 13 million followers and no one's

ever talked about him. Ever. Even

PewDiePie never gets 100K viewers when he

livestreams. It's just weird. You have

these massive Twitch streamers and they're

just like nobodies. They're not— well,

they are famous, but they're not famous

famous. Twitch is weird.

And then you got all the big streamers

just sitting there playing gambling slot

machines. It's so boring. Like that

Trainwrecks guy. Has 30,000 viewers and

he's just sitting there clicking on this

slot machine gambling thing.

And Twitch chat always is just a load of

spam. Have you ever gone onto a Twitch

streamer stream and then the chat is just

like nonstop emoji spam and there's no one

actually talking or trying to talk to the

streamer? They just spam emojis. Which is

so weird.

You need to get clipped and posted on

Reddit and big streams watch the clip.

Yeah, you got to get on livestream fails,

don't you?

LSF. But at least on YouTube you can make

a video about a trending topic and it'll

get views because you'll get search

results. I don't know,

I just— the whole Twitch grind

has always been weird to me. I wish I

could do Twitch because it seems nice.

You got subs and bits,

and you don't have to worry about making a

stupid thumbnail, and you don't have to

worry about copyright strikes or strikes

in general. You get short-term bans if you

do stuff that's bad. I got a 1-day ban

because someone was spamming the N-word

and I wasn't banning them.

So what else should I try? I'm, I'm really

pleased with this. This is good.

I got a 1-day ban because someone was

spamming the N-word and I wasn't banning

them. And this is really good. Yeah, I

like this. I feel like the Steam Deck has

been a pretty good purchase. I, I wouldn't

mind just streaming like this. No

text-to-speech, no chat on the screen is

fine. I wonder if I could play maybe

text-to-speech on my phone,

but that's not the same really. I have

to have to have a look into how to get

Streamlabs on Linux.

Maybe, maybe it is on Linux. Let me check

the the store.

It's surprising how good the Steam Deck is

as a PC. You think oh it's just a handheld

console. All it can do is play games. Not

going to be very good. Anything else.

It's not going to be powerful,

but for the price you pay, um, it packs

quite a punch. Plus it's really small and

you can plug it into anything— into a TV,

into monitors.

It's really small and you can plug it into

Anything into a TV. What's my sleep

schedule like? Well, I usually sleep

around now, but I just got really excited

about trying out this livestream.

I need to get a little keyboard as well

for it because the touchscreen keyboard is

a bit annoying. Um,

Streamlabs, let's search.

It's like it doesn't register my touch.

Oh, and then it just got rid of

everything.

So random. Let's just

use the D-pad.

I just got rid of everything again.

What?

Must be faster.

Nothing found. Maybe I have to go into the

website.

Streamlabs website.

Kim Isis X is so boring on here.

Yeah, I clicked on a few of her streams

and she's always just Talking about random

nonsense. She should

get back with Ice. I wonder what it was

like dating Ice. I bet he was— I bet he

was kind of miserable and moping around

and depressed, and he just wanted sex all

the time, and he didn't really want to do

anything because he was feeling down.

That's what I was like with Mila.

Probably why she dumped me. But I just got

in such a bad mental headspace where I

didn't want to do anything or go out

anywhere. And then she got fed up with me.

I have a feeling Ice was the same.

What, what am I doing? I forgot now.

The only person I like to watch on Twitch

is Connor, but I don't watch him on

Twitch. I watch his VODs on YouTube after

he's finished them. I watched his entire

cycle stream with Chris, which was

streamed on Twitch, but I watched it all

on YouTube. I don't want to watch it on

Twitch when it's live because you can't

pause it. That's the annoying thing about

Twitch is you can't pause or scroll

back on the stream. You have to watch it

live. I guess that's the whole point. But

on YouTube Lives you can pause it, can't

you? And you can scroll around.

Yeah, Kim was not bad looking. She had a

bit of a big nose, but She was quite

pretty. Seems like Ice has given

up on the idea of having a girlfriend for

now. Did anyone see his last livestream?

It was pretty good. Uh, the beginning, it

was kind of lame because he put up an ad

on Craigslist for an actor, to get a paid

actor come and do some acting auditions,

read out some scripts that his viewers

wrote, and it would be like a big prank.

He would say, oh, this is an acting

audition for Netflix, when actually it's

for a livestream. And the third guy

just walks in, and he seemed like a

sniper, a stream sniper, because he

somehow just appeared and he made up some

rubbish story. And then he started

trolling Ice about cryptocurrency. And it

turns out some other YouTuber paid him as

an actor to go and troll Ice whilst Ice is

trying to troll these other actors. It was

really funny, a really good plot twist. I

wasn't expecting that.

That was one of the reasons why I like

Ice's streams, because this random stuff

would just happen and it would be so

unexpected and you get these weird people

come on stream and they'd be such funny

characters.

Yeah, it's nice Ice Poseidon's back

streaming again. I missed his streams.

I need more streaming content to binge

because I just sit here at home all day

watching stuff. Hours on hours on end.

Ended up watching 60 hours of Connor

vlogs— I mean streaming VODs. And I watch

all of Trash Taste, I watch all of After

Dark, watch everything. I'm just like a

binge machine, but it's hard to find stuff

I like. Most people are boring.

Well, I think I proved my point that the

Stream Deck can steam the Steam Deck.

Mhm. Mhm.

What do I like more, gaming or watching

stuff? Well, I game whilst watching stuff.

Been gaming on the Steam Deck, sitting

here playing Hitman 3 whilst watching

stuff on my big screen. Ouch, where's my

Ow! Why is my arm hurting?

Ow! When I do that, it really hurts.

That was weird. Look,

got my big screen here. My desk is such a

mess right now. Got so many things.

Trying to plan what to bring to Thailand.

Now the only problem is I need a mic.

This one's pretty small. Maybe I could

bring this.

It's so nice having a mic stand like this.

You just swing it backwards and forwards

wherever you want it to be.

Maybe I'll try plugging this mic in. Hold

Testing. So how does this sound? It's so

nice how everything just automatically

gets recognized when you plug it in.

How's this?

Way better. Really? This is a cheaper mic.

Than the Blue Yeti. Testing. So how does

this sound? It's so nice how everything

just automatically gets recognized when

you plug it in. Oh yeah,

it does sound kind of different, doesn't

it? For some reason it sounds,

it sounds less bassy. Maybe the

Yeti sounds worse than your normal

streams. Yeah, maybe because it's plugged

into the Steam Deck and the settings are

not exactly the same as it usually is on

my laptop. Oh yeah, it does sound kind of

different, doesn't it? I've heard rumors,

people saying that Japan's going to reopen

in October. I bet you anything it will,

knowing my luck, because I've just bought

my ticket for Thailand and I've applied

for my visa for 3 months in Thailand.

Knowing my luck, I'm gonna be stuck in

Thailand for months and Japan's gonna

reopen. No visas required, nothing,

just back to normal. And then I'll be

stuck in bloody Thailand, hopefully having

sex with a Thai woman. And then I'll be

like, oh, I can't go to Japan now, I've

got a Thai girlfriend and things are

pretty good, good with her right now.

Now I've got to decide If things go well

with the Thai woman, I got to decide,

do I want to ditch Thai girl and go back

to Japan, or do I just forget about Japan

and stay in Thailand? Because if I go back

to Japan, I've got no Chihiro, I've got no

friends apart from that gay guy, starting

back from zero. I don't know if I have any

viewers left who still want to meet.

Do I want to ditch Taiga and go back to

Japan? Yeah, this sounds good. I'm

definitely gonna bring this mic. It's nice

and compact as well. It can be like this.

It's like a walkie-talkie. Well, imagine

if I sellotaped it to my bag

strap like this. Be like this. Testing,

testing, I'm in the supermarket now.

Yeah, this sounds good. I'm definitely

gonna bring this mic. It's nice and

compact as well. It could be like this.

It's like a walkie-talkie. Well, imagine

if I sellotaped it to my bag strap like

this. Be like this. Testing, testing, I'm

in the supermarket now. It sounds good.

I like it.

People say I don't put any effort into,

into improving the quality of my stuff,

but I always care a lot about how it

sounds. That's the most important thing,

the audio quality. You need to have at

least a nice mic. You don't want to have

really crappy audio. You can have crappy

footage and it's not too much of a

problem. I think having a good, good sound

is, is most important because people are

listening, and if it sounds bad, they're

just not really going to want to listen.

Okay, so, um, what else?

What else do I need? I think that's it.

For my stream setup.

Plus I can move it around easily,

but I've got to hold the mic like this the

whole time.

Hmm, good, good result. Yeah,

I'm pleased.

What else do I need to test?

Any ideas?

It could Maybe if

I want to do some IRL streaming in

Thailand, if I ever got that bored that I

wanted to try it, would it

be good for streaming outside or just use

my phone? Wouldn't I just use my phone

outside? I don't

know how I would— would I film myself or

just film what's in front of me? Just hold

it in my hands, I guess. Yeah, it's not

really that important. I don't think I'd

do IRL because the last time I tried doing

it in Manchester, it was such a fail.

Test putting Steam Deck in your bag, see

if it overheats. I don't think it would.

I think it's using really low power right

now. It's not blowing the fan much.

I can't believe how great the Steam Deck

is. It really is good. I want to make a

why Steam Deck is shit video, but I

honestly can't think of any reasons why it

sucks. It plays games perfectly.

I played Hitman 3 on it for like 20 hours

now and it's buttery smooth,

60 FPS, graphics look great. Plays great,

the controls feel great, you can

plug it into a monitor, a TV, you can plug

in your Xbox controller, and it's

wireless. I really can't think of anything

that's bad about it.

If I had to choose between the Steam Deck

and my gaming laptop I mean, the gaming

laptop cost me $2,000, and this only cost,

what, $600? And I got the most expensive

option, 512GB storage one.

If you got the low-end one, it would have

been, what, $400? And you got a really

good gaming console that can also be

turned into a completely functional

desktop. Can Steam Deck use

Game Pass? No, but you

would if you installed Windows onto it,

then you'd get Xbox Gaming Pass. I think

you can do Xbox Gaming Pass over the

cloud, cloud streaming, if you download it

on a browser. It's too,

um, much of a Fuss. I can't be bothered.

So the plan is hopefully meet Thai girl,

she likes me, and she takes me back to her

house. I move in with her, and then while

she's at work, I set up my stream deck— I

mean, my Steam Deck webcam. I just—

the risk is she finds my mic, my webcam,

and she's like, why have you got a mic?

I don't think she would rummage through my

bag, but you never know. She might be like

one of those women who want to have a look

at everything that you've got.

Can't bring any tripods, obviously, so I'm

gonna have to prop it up on some kind of

thing. Definitely gonna bring this webcam.

This webcam is good, I like it. It's good

wide angle and

it's pretty small as well.

Why don't I stream on YouTube? Because I'm

just testing out this What

if she wants to go through your phone?

Well, I'm going to have to put stuff into

a folder like YouTube Studio and

other apps, I guess,

just in case. Going to have to wipe

message histories with certain women.

Because she seems really obsessive and

needy and very emotional.

So I wouldn't be surprised if she was

asking me to show her my phone.

She'd be like, if you don't have anything

to hide, then just let me see.

Yeah, this is high risk, but you know what

they say, high risk, high reward. My cover

could get blown, but I was livestreaming

and making YouTube videos for months

before Chihiro found out, and I wasn't

even careful. I was just livestreaming

thinking that she would never find out.

The only reason she found out is because I

told her that I have a YouTube channel,

and I told her not to look for it,

thinking she would actually listen. But at

the time, I didn't know how stubborn

Chihiro can be. Chihiro never

listens. She'll just do whatever

she wants, even if you ask her

not to do it.

High risk, low reward. No, it's high

reward. If I— if it works out, then I

get endless copious amounts of sex,

probably even raw, and I get to stay with

her. I don't have to pay any rent. This

Thailand trip could be so cheap. All I

have to do is pay for the plane ticket

and, you know, chip in here and there

so she doesn't feel like I'm using her.

And that is really the ultimate goal of

getting a girlfriend, is you get huge

amounts of regular sex that you don't have

to pay for, because you just can't afford

to be able to pay for sex on a regular

basis. If you're paying for sex, then it's

gonna be like a special treat now and

then, a couple times a month. But I want

sex almost every night, and at least a few

times, and the only way you can get that

is either by being a millionaire or having

a girlfriend.

I haven't had a girlfriend since 2020.

It's been 2 years.

I had a few flings. I don't know, I had

that British girlfriend, didn't I? But she

lived so far away, we only met in a hotel

once, and then we met on dates for about 6

times after that. We made up— made out a

few times at some of the dates, but we

never had sex again after the first time.

I just wasn't really that into it with

her, and she made me use a condom, so I

don't really get that excited over

condom sex. I'd rather just jerk off, to

be honest. It just doesn't feel good.

Daniel secretly recording videos on his

Steam Deck. Yeah,

I feel really inspired by Ice Poseidon's

return to streaming because he secretly

recorded— he secretly streamed a bunch of

people he got off Craigslist.

Maybe I'll do some messed up stuff like

that.

Secretly livestreaming my Tinder date.

How attractive was she? She was so

unattractive. The British girl.

She looked like a young version of my

aunt. My English aunt.

She looked like an even worse looking

version of Queen Elizabeth when she was

young. She just looked weird.

Like, I don't know how to describe it.

Her nose was okay, eyes were fine. It's

just her mouth and chin area was not great

It's just the whole package was very

unsatisfactory.

To my standards.

She wasn't fat, she had quite a nice

figure, although she had a belly when she

was naked. The belly came out, but she

looked quite— she had a figure, she had

quite a nice body compared to some of the

girls I've met on Tinder who were just so

fat.

Do I think Thai Girl's using lots of

makeup? I— well, she said she used

a filter, which I expect. I use a filter

too, but I can still see what she's

hiding if you look closely. I can see

she's got acne scars and she's got pimples

now and then. I'm not really bothered.

Mila had loads of pimples, and honestly,

it didn't really make any difference.

I still found her attractive.

That's the thing, when you find someone's

face attractive, you don't really care if

they got a few pimples here or there. It

doesn't really bother me.

But I don't know, Thai girl's face is not

amazing. It's okay, it's just

I'm not a fan of her nose. I feel like her

nostril bits are a bit,

bit wide.

Not a great nose.

But I can look past that maybe.

Thai people seem to have not great noses

for some reason. It's like a lot of most,

most Thai people just have bad genetics

when it comes to nose. Noses.

I think I've got quite a nice nose

actually. The Manchester girl, the blonde

Muslim one, she said I've got a really

nice looking nose that looks attractive

from almost every angle. I don't know

about that. Sometimes I feel like my

nostrils are a bit, bit wide. I think it's

because I keep picking my nose like that.

It's made the nostrils wider.

I think my nose is okay. Bit,

bit round maybe from the front,

but from the side I think my nose looks

Okay, I think I achieved what I wanted to

achieve. Is there anything

else I should try out? I can't believe

this actually works. Okay, I think I

achieved what I wanted to achieve.

Is there anything else I should try out?

I can't believe this actually works. The

only thing I'm disappointed about is

there's nothing on OBS that's fun.

What can I do? Scene?

What does scene do?

I don't know what that does, but there's

nothing. There's— I can put an image

overlay. I can put a browser overlay.

I can put a media source. Where, where is

the chat box? Where is the donation goal?

Where is the alerts for donations?

There's nothing. It's so bare bones.

Get a headset for audio. Yeah.

Gamer headset with the mic.

I could say, oh, sometimes I do voice

acting.

Wow, my feet look massive from this angle.

My feet look so funny. Look, I've got

massive feet. My feet are pretty

big, but with this wide angle, it looks

huge. That looks so funny.

Don't clip that. Daniel's massive feet.

Next thing to test, order a Bluetooth

headset. Yeah, maybe it's good.

I've seen some streamers use them.

It looks nice,

but I don't want to wear it because it'll

mess up my hair, won't it? Really, I need

like a wireless lavalier. What, what are

they called? The wireless Rode ones.

Wireless Mic.

Rode. Rode makes good microphone stuff.

£250. Oh, piss off. Not spending

that much money. I heard Connor spends

$400 a month on his SIM cards for his

LiveU livestreaming setup. I never

understand the LiveU setup thing.

LiveU costs £850 and it's like

a box and you plug a camera into it. It's

got a USB slot, you plug the camera into

it, and then You plug these

modems into it and you can plug into 4—

you can plug 4 SIM cards into it. So it's

receiving all this data, so it's got a

reliable connection, and then it sends the

stream off to a computer that,

that belongs to the LiveU servers, and

then the LiveU servers sends that

information back to your computer.

So you, so you can stream it. It just

sounds weird. How, how does that work

well?

And they always use that same camera that

Bold and Bankrupt uses, that white Sony

action camera. That's like a 10-year-old

camera that Sony doesn't even make

anymore. I had one as well before. I made

a few videos with it, but I left it in

Japan. And it's hard to get them now

because they don't make new ones,

but it's really good because it's wide

angle, it's got really good stabilization,

and the mics are good too, better than

GoPro.

I can't believe this actually works. This

is so funny. I can make videos on, on my

Steam Deck, couldn't I?

I wonder what processor the Steam Deck

What graphics card does it have?

What specs? Is Steam Deck?

I don't know. Steam Deck's

processor.

AMD RDNA 2. So it's got

like an AMD chip with integrated graphics.

It includes a custom accelerated

processing unit, an APU, built by

AMD based on the Zen 2 and RDNA

2 architecture. Named Aerith after

the Final Fantasy VII character. Weebs.

It's the same GPU you find in Xbox Series

X. What?

The Steam Deck has the same GPU as an

Xbox?

GPU is the well-known AMD RDNA 2, same as

you find in Xbox Series X. It has 8

compute units, 16GB of RAM.

How does that compare to an RTX graphics

Steam Deck is considerably more powerful

than a Switch. When it comes

to screen tech, Switch OLED trumps it.

I don't know why anyone would want to get

a Switch over a Steam Deck unless you're a

massive Nintendo fanboy who likes Nintendo

Steam Deck is supposed to be a portable

PC. Substantially pared back relative—

what is pared back? Relative to its

stronger console cousin, but critically it

is targeting a much lower output

resolution.

Interesting. It's quite powerful, it

seems. And it's pretty cheap. For the base

model, it's, uh, £300.

Try get a good gaming laptop for £300.

You gotta spend like £2,000, £1,500 on a

gaming laptop.

I'm gonna go to bed. Thanks for joining

my test stream. Can't believe I still get

viewers on Twitch still.

Could have test streamed it on my second

channel on YouTube, maybe.

For some reason, I'm enjoying this

too much, even though I've got

nothing to do now. This was fun. I like

getting new tech and then messing about

with it, see what it can do.

Messing about with it, see what it can do.

I've got so many tech stuff now. I've got

MacBook, the iPad. I got my Magic Keyboard

back out. I forgot how good

the Magic Keyboard is. So I'm gonna bring

this as my laptop to Thailand in case

I need to do some typing stuff with a

bigger screen, and I'll be watching stuff

on this screen, like YouTube

stuff or any shows I want to watch will be

done on the iPad and gaming

and streaming will be done on the Steam

Deck.

And I've got to pretend to be a digital

artist because I told her I do digital art

for work. So I got to do some drawing, I

guess. So it seems like I'm doing

something productive.

Am I getting iPhone 14? No, I'm kind of

fed up with smartphones. I don't really

see any reason to change from my iPhone

12, and I'm not making a

lot of money these days, so I've got to be

careful with money now. I'm not pulling in

the massive views like I used to, only

making about $900

a month on YouTube, not making $1,500 or

$800 anymore.

So I can't really be blowing money on

pointless phones. I'm gonna buy other

things like Steam Decks.

Which is quite nice. I really like the

Steam Deck.

If you could choose only one device, what

would you choose? The Steam Deck.

Because if you got a Steam Deck, why do

you need a phone? You've got a browser

so you can do all the website stuff.

And you've got Discord on it too,

and there's no apps, but what do you need

apps for when you've got a web browser?

Plus you can play PC games on it. Yeah,

but you can't put the Steam Deck in your

pocket like a phone. I really need a

phone. My iPhone fits within the

Steam Deck screen.

Isn't the Steam Deck £1,000? No, it cost

me £560, and I got the most expensive

model with the, with the special,

um, Gorilla Glass, the special extra tough

glass on the screen, and it's got The

512GB storage. I might get a screen

protector. I'm a bit worried about

breaking it or scratching it. But why get

a screen protector when I paid the extra

money for the stronger screen glass?

It'll be fine, I think.

It came with a little travel bag as well.

Back as well.

Screen protector is worth it, but they're

so annoying to get on. You always get

little bubbles appearing, and then you try

and get the bubble out, you accidentally

touch it and smudge it and get like little

hair stuck to it, and then you've just

wasted a screen protector.

Need a new phone, I have a shitty S10.

I've still— I still use my S10 Plus to

make all my videos. Still my favorite

camera. All my videos are made

on this S10 Plus,

but I use the iPhone 12 for my daily

usage stuff.

Okay, going to go to bed now. Thanks for

helping me with my test stream.

Uh, goodbye for now.
