Yeah that seems quite disingenuous for a device that literally popularized a whole new platform for PC gaming, and has spearheaded the efforts of Windows games on Linux, to the point of actually outperforming native installations of many games.

Bad journalism is bad.

Neat!

Why don’t you just get one beefy computer, then use something like Nucleus Co-op to split screen multiple sessions of the game on one TV?

Or if you’ve already got multiple copies of the game on multiple devices, you can use something like a multiviewer to split it up.

No need for a special TV in either case 😉

That’s good to know, thanks! I’m still just learning to touch type. I spent a few decades typing fast enough but always looking at the keys. This year I’ve started learning touch typing, I’m only a half dozen hours in, so still pretty new.

But when I get good I’ll take this into consideration! Thanks!

Interesting 🤔 why? Just curious

Oh now this is different than I’ve heard, some others have had issues switching back and forth. So maybe I will give it a try, once I’ve got qwerty up to a decent speed and I feel comfortable with it.

Right now it’s a problem because if I’m in a hurry, I’m tempted to type the old way, or a broken mixture of the two that messes with what I’ve learned. Not good. Gotta slow down and do it right, bah…

Thanks for the recommendations, I’m gonna put a 3d printed split board on my list of things I’ll definitely get to some day and totally won’t get pushed off the back of the furthest back burner lol

Very cool!

Honest question, does using a keyboard like this make you forget how to use a standard one?

I know op did it for the pain, so it’s a moot point. But if I did it just because it’s cool, and to avoid injury in the future, would I mess up my normal keyboard abilities?

This is me, except even more trusting 🤷‍♂️

I’ve definitely pulled my hair out with docker too. Banged my head against the wall for a couple days before finally giving up.

I’m not ridiculously tech savvy, but I’ve tinkered with Linux since I was young, daily drive it on my laptop. I’m not afraid of the command line, and I’m smart enough to search for help and guides when I need it.

But something about docker just breaks my brain. Maybe I’m too old and there’s too much abstract thought required, I don’t know. But I can’t figure it out.

Oh man, I’m gonna look into this. I’m currently running Bluefin, but maybe I’ll pivot over to Aurora 🤔

Thanks!

Oh man I forgot about this! How long has it been dead? Why does no one want this?

I had this running on Ubuntu on my laptop back in the day

Yeah I preordered for sure

Right?

I get it, more frames more better, and I agree.

But I don’t expect the steam deck to be a super performance machine. And personally, I am not that affected by 30fps. Below 30 it does start to bother me, and above 30 is significantly smoother.

I’m currently playing through HFW, and I can average about 40, it drops to 30 at times, and occasionally dips below, but by and large I’m very happy with it.

IIRC it’s glued in, and there might be other barriers beyond that

IDK about non issue. I have a framework laptop, and even though the battery is very easily replaceable, I still set the charge limit to 80%.

I don’t require the extra charge the majority of the time, and now I don’t have to worry about replacing my battery for a much longer period of time.

Though I agree, for as serviceable as the steam deck is, a little more attention could’ve been paid to the battery situation.

I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on the 1.0 of freecad.

I don’t use CAD professionally, and even my hobby usage is less than it was, and it was only a dozen or two small projects.

I had never used freecad, always fusion 360. I’ve been away for awhile, and also switched to Linux in the meantime. I needed to make a simple object, and tried freecad 1.0, and I literally could not intuit how to begin. Not a single shape, I was so lost, it was very frustrating.

I tried onshape and got a bit further, but still don’t like the corporate nature of it.

I’m not trying to slam freecad, I really want it to work, and when I have more time to sit down and study it, I want to try again. But in the meantime I went back to fusion 360 in a VM, which was very sluggish, but at least I knew where everything was.

This actually got me into a car accident as a young driver.

I had just gotten on the highway heading home, rural towns. The gas gauge was broken so I had to count miles on the odometer to know when I was low, and I realized at that moment that I was desperately in need of gas.

So I took the first exit, and started looking for a gas station. I’m driving the speed limit, 55mph, and coming around a very large slowly sweeping curve I see what looks like a gas station up ahead on the left. There are no other businesses on the road. It had a tall sign out front. I didn’t recognize the sign, I was trying to read what it said, to see if it was a gas station or not. But I couldn’t read it. I was struggling to make sense of what I was seeing, honestly. A Martin Glass? An olive? I don’t remember all the things on it. But the point is, it was items, party items, that spelled out the word… party? It was a party store… and then I hit the guy in front of me who was stopped dead in the middle of the road waiting to turn left into a driveway.

I was so distracted trying to read that stupid sign, I didn’t even see him until the last second. I had time to swerve a bit, and I locked the brakes. I ended up hitting his back right bumper and crushing it in, a glancing blow that didn’t even touch his trunk. Just the bumper. He drove away no problem.

My car was a different story, it tore my lower control arm and snapped my tie-rod. Took out the front left quarter panel, hood, bumper, and headlight too. I had to get towed home, like 2 hours.

Technically my fault, and I got the ticket. But dang it if to this day, I don’t still blame that stupid sign. The Martini glass was the Y, I think the olive was the A? I don’t remember, I should try finding it again.

Please report back!

Know that feeling 😂

That’s the point. The first option killed everything but the player. This kills only the cows.
