If you already have a Steam Deck, then you are basically already familiar with Linux gaming. The software-side of things (Steam, Proton, etc) is going to be the same on desktop Linux.

If a game is compatible with the Deck, then it is also comaptible with desktop.

I’ve been a Linux gamer for about a decade now. I stick with single player games, so I generally don’t have any issues, other than a minor tweak or DLL override I sometimes have to do, but that’s no different than trying to run older games on Windows.

Only real issue would be installing mods, which is possible, but could require some extra work, such as manually setting DLL overrides. I’ve had trouble getting Reloaded II to work in Linux, for example, even though they claim they support Linux.

The best weed is grown in no-till soil, hence why living soil weed sells for more money.

So now Google has the ability to remotely uninstall any piece of software from your device (if you have Google apps installed)

FreeTube is also available as a webapp and on Android: https://marmadilemanteater.github.io/freetube/#/

I’ve had trouble importing subs on the Android version though, and haven’t really tested the webapp.

That can be done with a single chip. What’s actually complicated here is the switch-mode power supply itself.

It’s how you get a 90% efficiency vs a 10% efficiency from linear power supplies (transformer, full bridge rectifier, and a big ass-capacitor, then if you need a stable voltage, a voltage regulator, which makes things even less efficient). The benefit of linear supplies is that it’s very easy to produce very clean power for analog electronics, but digital electronics have a lot more wiggle room for noise in the power. Well designed SMPS have both low noise levels and also hogh efficiency. Those are more expensive :P.

There’s a field of engineering specific to power electronics. It can get super complicated. I don’t understand a lot of it myself.

Referring to the thorium web browser. It’s super dumb.

It’s not cheap, though.

I thought the EU already forced them under the Digital Markets Act to allow alternative browser engines outside of Webkit on iOS.

Likely will happen whenever Apple starts to allow sideloading, probably next year at around March.

But they wouldn’t have to use Google’s IAP service if they distributed Fortnite as a self-updating apk on their website.

Nah, this is election fraud. Voter fraud is something slightly different.

…No.

That’s no fun. I love me some security flaws.

Too much collaboration and respecting other people, not enough rugged individualism and walking over other people to get ahead.

Best we can do is 0.001% of their profit from last fiscal year and no prison time.

The rest of the Republican party collapsing would be nice.

Only supported in KDE, Sway, Hyprland, and gamescope as of right now. Also supported in X11.

Freesync works with Linux on AMD, but only over DisplayPort.

Only when they’re not on the plaintiff side of things.

Not much will change.
