Hello everyone! As someone who really likes the Xbox 360, I built a custom CSS Loader theme that resembles the console's NXE dashboard. I think this style was the best dashboard that was ever made, and Microsoft should've continued to use it. If you want to enjoy this dashboard on your Steam Deck, you can install it manually through my GitHub page:

NXE-Deck

I am still waiting for it to be approved by Deckthemes. Until then, the only option is manual installation. I would appreciate it if you could report any bugs you encounter and share any feedback you have. If you would like to support me, you can find information about it on the GitHub page. Thanks a lot!

Hi everyone! I want to share with you my shell swap experience. I spray painted my original black controller years ago. I didn't play with the console for years but this year, since there are better ways to exploit, I decided to bring the console from my parent's house. Since it is spray painted, it has a sticky feeling on the hand. So I decided to swap the shell and ordered this chrome gold variant. I used some elements from the old device to make it as close as the original chrome gold. I'm happy with the end result. The negative sides are the D-pad and the battery holder. D-pad doesn't feel so satisfying and battery holder doesn't fit 100%. But overall, it was a good experience. Did you also swap your console or controller shell?

Hi everyone, I spent a few days in Cyprus recently and had the chance to see both sides of the island. I came away with a genuine question that I'd love to hear local perspectives on.

In the south, I noticed that wherever there was a Republic of Cyprus flag, there was almost always a Greek flag right next to it, on public buildings, shops, churches, everywhere. I'm curious what this reflects. Is it primarily a cultural expression of Greek heritage, or does it signal that a significant portion of the population identifies more as Greek than Cypriot? And relatedly, does support for Enosis still have a meaningful presence, or is it more of a fringe position today?

I also crossed to the north, and the atmosphere felt quite different in terms of visible nationalism. I didn't notice flags displayed as prominently, and the main Turkish flag I recall was on the Selimiye Mosque. I don't want to read too much into that observation since I was only there briefly.

This contrast made me wonder: from a reunification perspective, does the pervasive display of the Greek flag in the south make Turkish Cypriots more hesitant about the idea of a unified Cyprus? Given the history of the island, particularly the intercommunal violence of the 1960s and the events of 1974, it seems like this kind of symbolism could carry a very different emotional weight depending on which community you belong to.

I'm attaching a photo that illustrates what I mean.

These are genuine questions from a curious visitor. I'm not trying to take sides or provoke anyone. I'd just love to understand the island better. Thanks in advance!
