There was this guy in our friends group who was your guarantee of losing if he was on your team. You could pair him up with the best players and still his utter lack of game-comprehension would somehow drag the others down to his level.
Ne, letztes Jahr oder so hat ein Künstler in einer Galerie mit Tesafilm eine Banane an die Wand geklebt. Ich glaube dieses “Kunstwerk” wurde dann auch noch teuer verkauft. War ein “Riesenskandal”, als jemand dann einen Tag später die Banane gegessen hatte.

In case you’re out of the loop, the old Steam Deck had Philips screws that screwed into self-tapping plastic holes. This lead to occasional stripped threads and often stripped screwheads....
When I couldn’t repair my Nokia and replace the 5 € USB-Port because there happened to be a small crack in the screen (of course you have to remove the glued on screen to accese the innards), I caved and bought a Fairphone 3.
Worst decision ever. The stupid thing refuses to break to let me even use the better repairability.
Honestly, I think I’ve never dropped a phone as much as this one. And apart from a few scratches there’s nothing. I think it’s the battery cover that usually just pops off like on the indestructible Nokia phones of decades past.
Really funny how I can use Nokia as both a positive and a negative example.

If you could only re-experience from new one game (like total immersion, wide-eyed wonder-at-the-majesty-of-it-all re-experience) and had yet to pick a console (Xbox versus PlayStation), what game on which console and why? (and feel free to remark on ideal controllers, add-ons, etc.)...
Well, I’d pick a Steam Deck. But luckily Baldur’s Gate 3 is also available on the PS5. I’d really like to play that game blind again. It’s so wonderful to discover all the stuff. And when you’re done you have only found about 50 % of the content this game has to offer.
I’m just done with my third playthrough in which I would still see new stuff in every play-session. I’m gearing up for my fourth by playing Baldur’s Gate 2. I want to continue playing the same character in BG3. Not officially supported, but I want to play her with the same race and class and personality. I already know of some things I want to explore that I haven’t seen before. And I wonder what new unknown details I will find.

It is usually much slower than a direct connection or a commercial VPN.
Also law enforcement, spy agencies and criminals all run public nodes to get lucky and grab as much data on you as possible. So you should never use TOR for unencrypted websites. But I’d say the same should be assumed when using a commercial VPN.
Is it shallow, or petty, to decide based on name alone? Yeah, pretty much, but there’s probably something, a product or service or site, that the name has made you gloss right over it or jump to it ASAP....

If you’re using your computer for work and can’t afford to spend some time figuring out how to do something that would be second nature for you on Windows, you shouldn’t switch. It would probably be more expensive than just buying a Windows license.
That said, you shouldn’t expect too many problems. You can try out your Word templates right now in Libre Office. Or just run the web version of Microsoft Office in Linux. Video codecs are usually just one command away.
In terms of what distribution to choose, I would choose something popular that’s stable and comes with sane defaults. Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora or OpenSUSE Leap.
The main difference for a newbie will probably be how to install software. On Linux you usually don’t go to the manufacturers website and download an installer. Instead you go to your software center and search there for what you need. Similar to the App Store and Play Store on phones.
In case this is not a joke, Steam only runs on x86 processors. The Vita has an ARM processor. But I bet someone made some Linux that runs on the Vita. Just not with Steam games.
Yes, Valve started working on that about a year ago or so. I think it’s already available in the current Steam Deck software for external monitors. Valve’s involvement has been great for Linux.
Nice. I would actually be tempted to sell my current one and get this. At least if I had money. Looks like they addressed most of the common complaints.
With the release of bazzite 2.0 and the existence of other steamOS-like distros like chimera OS, I’m just wondering if anyone is running their steam deck with a different distro than what was shipped.

Thanks for showing me bazzite. It looks really good. When github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/issues/464 is resolved and I’ve got some energy I will definitely try it out.

My daughter loves Minecraft, Goat Simulator, Spider-Man, A Short Hike and Super Mario 3D World. And in VR she mostly plays Mission ISS, Bogo, Job Simulator and the Free Spider-Man VR game from Steam.
Hello, I am trying to install Minecraft Bedrock on Arch Linux to play cross-platform multiplayer with my friends. I have heard about the mcpelauncher but that requires to have Minecraft from Play Store, and I already have bought Java and Bedrock for PC. Can I do anything to actually play Minecraft Bedrock on Linux?
To be fair, a lot of the “isn’t supposed to work” stuff in MyHouse.wad isn’t really new to Doom. It’s not like the author invented some astonishing new techniques. It’s just that the presentation is incredibly well done.
Like, room over room stuff was more or less figured out as soon as people started using the Build engine. It was just a matter of time until this stuff was available in Doom. My guess is that it’s been possible for at least 20 years.
