I have never wanted to play a game so hard in my life. It seems to have the atmosphere of Inscryption, the gameplay of Papers Please and a lot of buttons and knobs to mess around with.

How much log information is being printed to the console? If it’s logging something every frame then that could be using a ton of resources.
I use it for “light” games (the 2D stuff, Balatro, Dicey Dungeons, Whisker Squadron Survivor) while sitting in bed. Honestly when I got it, I wasn’t expecting to use it as much as I did.
If anyone loves old game manuals, I’d recommend the game Tunic. It’s such a charming little game and, without spoiling too much, the manual is a core part of it.
Steam probably.
I’m cool with Obsidian because everything is just a bunch of Markdown files. If they go off into the deep end then I can just switch to VScodium or some random text editor.
Vendor lockin is the real problem with proprietary software.
For standard use, ext4. If you want to tinker and use fancy features, btrfs (or maybe zfs?).
One small thing but I’m surprised nobody points it out - the charging port location. I like using my switch/steam deck in bed or otherwise laying down, and the fact that the charging lead is at the bottom of the console rather than the top sucks. It just gets in the way and stops you resting the console on you. Whereas the Steam Deck just has it on top where you can just plug it in while playing.
I know the technical reasons behind it because of the dock and all that, but it’s annoying.
In general, I think the steam deck is better than the switch in almost every way - The switch is just an expensive ticket for the right to play Nintendo games nowadays.
Used them to debug a problem. Forgot to remove them. Wondered why I ran out of disk space a few weeks later.
Programs running graphically (Firefox, your file browser, etc.) need a way to tell the system “draw these pixels here”. That’s what the display server does; it takes all these applications, works out where their windows are and manages that pixel data.
XOrg has historically been the display server in common use, but it’s very old and very cobbled together. It generally struggles with “modern” things that must people expect today. Multimonitor setups, vsync, hdr and all that. They work, but support is hacked together and brittle.
Wayland is a replacement for XOrg that was designed from scratch to fix a lot of these issues. But it’s been an uphill battle because XOrg is the final boss of legacy codebases.
tl;dr They’re both software that manages drawing pixels from applications to the display.
Out of interest, what is your use case? I’ve not seen a gui app that requires root that doesn’t prompt for it when you start it up.

Slay the Spire is the “original” Rougelike Deckbuilder and IMO got the formula down perfectly.
Realistically, what are you expecting? If Valve suddenly decided tomorrow to release all of their source code on Github, all you’d get is a big blob of source code that is purpose built for Valve themselves and not really modular. They’d have so much technical debt and auditing requirements that it’d probably be easier to start from scratch, which I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect them to do.
And honestly, nothing closed source that Steam does is really novel enough to warrant being open source. The value of Steam comes from its ecosystem and playerbase, as well as the backing of Valve themselves. That’s not something that an open source Steam server or client would allow people to compete with.
I would like them to release an open source command line tool for downloading, launching and DRM-validating-ing games though. That seems reasonable for people who don’t want to run the full client and want something like Heroic or Lutris to be able to hook into.
We’d all like Steam to be open source, but that’s not going to happen for a number of reasons. So I guess you could say that a core part of the OS is proprietary, if you wanted.
We like Valve because they are actually contributing to open source projects, unlike Microsoft who say they love open source but don’t do anything to support it.
Also, the Steam Deck is really nice, and less locked down than “Windows” hardware.
Really? To me they look like the ones on the 3DS. It made sense there considering the lid, but not here.
Scam aside, that thing does not look comfortable to hold and use. Especially those triggers.
Technically that would mean that one copy of the file is no longer updated when the other is.
You should consider using
ln bkp.tar.gz bkp2.tar.gz
instead.
