No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I updated my post to include the power adapter for my steam deck. It allows 100-240v 50-60hz so I shouldn't need a converter, but just an adapter.
Most USB chargers convert the voltage automatically. You only need an adapter. But for things like a hairdryer for example, you might need the converter.
That's good to know, thanks!

That's exactly the one I used in the Philippines (and many other countries), it's a Swiss brand with excellent built quality and overcharge protection, unlike many of the no name China things you find on Amazon. It's compatible with all plug types from A through G, and with the 2 USB sockets you can actually charge 3 devices at once.
For the devices you listed, no transformer is needed, correct.
Hair dryers are btw. the most common single-voltage appliances that cause issues, so don't bring one of those...
Thanks for the reply! That is definitely a little pricey, but if the build quality is good then it will be worth it.
You can definitely go for a cheaper one if it's a single use occasion for you, I've just been traveling around a lot over the years - mostly for work - and had some unbranded thing before that broke after a few uses.
I do plan on travelingore in the future. So I might as well get a good quality one.
