I think this gets it exactly right. I’ve taken the deck on trips where I have room in the suitcase, but I wouldn’t take it on my daily commute. But most of all, I’m just with it on the couch. Even though there is also a nice big tv right in front of it, the instant on / instant suspend makes it great for 5-10 minute chunks.

I bought a deck mainly for the working suspend. I have an AMD based desktop that I run Arch Linux on, and suspend didn't work on it for most of 2022. Bug fixes have since trickled into the mainline kernel, and there's AMD employees and Valve contractors productively participating in issue tickets.
