google isn’t the only company selling android phones.
Other Android OEMs are allowed to ship whatever store they want in addition to Google Play. The Epic Games Store is on the Samsung Galaxy Store: galaxystore.samsung.com/…/com.epicgames.portal

You know that court cases are not competitions about who’s the most illegal, right?

I nominated Sea of Stars for most categories, though.

- Comment on Selling my deck 2 weeks ago:
I think with the recent price drop of the LCD models and the launch of the OLED ones, the 64GB LCD one is in a very tough place. I’ve sold my 256GB LCD one for only 200€. I’ve could have gotten much more a week before the OLED announcement but then I had no motivation to sell it in the first place. I wanted to upgrade to OLED and that’s where I am now.

Their videos are full of those reaction faces, though. No way are arrows worse than the faces.

I dunno but I tried that and it didn’t work at all. Had to go searching around online for how to even install a damn game.
Just for shits and giggles I fired up a VM and did a clean Steam installation from Flathub. This is the default:
Steam Play (=Proton) is on for supported Windows games. For unsupported games it’s off.

And as someone who has actually used Steam on Linux
And you’re the only one!

I continue to deny it because it’s wrong.
Yeah, the whole world is wrong. You’re the only one knowing the truth.
- Comment on [News] SteamOS will be coming to other handhelds before you can install it on your PC 'because right now, it's very, very tuned for Steam Deck' 3 weeks ago:
Incorrect again. If you try to do that on a non-Linux game, Steam just acts like it’s incompatible and the install button is greyed out without any indication of anything to do with Proton or how to make it work.
Then you disabled Steam Play.

So it sounds a lot like you’ve never actually done this before because that’s factually incorrect.
As a long time openSUSE user I know for a fact that you’re wrong.

Yet another person missing the point 🤦
Nah, we all get the point. You claim that Steam does not come with Proton on regular Linux distributions but you’re wrong which is an easily googlable fact you continue to deny. If your installation of Steam is somehow broken, that’s specific to you. At most the “Enable Steam Play” checkbox has to be ticked in Steam’s settings.

Are you bashing bash?
No, I’m making fun of anybody who claims that outputting Hello World on Linux is somehow complicated.

Wait, you had so much trouble to look if the “Enable Steam Play” checkbox was ticked? 🙄

It’s easy to compile things in Windows! First, set up WSL …
Yep,
echo “Hello World!”works just as well in WSL as under native Linux. - Comment on [News] SteamOS will be coming to other handhelds before you can install it on your PC 'because right now, it's very, very tuned for Steam Deck' 3 weeks ago:
Not going to happen until NVIDIA proprietary drivers work well in Wayland
Maybe Valve could just release it and replace the download button with this to get the incompatibility message across:

dearrow.ajay.app might be for you

HoloISO is almost the exact same thing, just without any support from Valve.
All public interest in HoloISO pretty much died when the author came out as a fanboy of Putin’s war. The aforementioned Bazzite seems to be the best supported option these days.
- Comment on [News] SteamOS will be coming to other handhelds before you can install it on your PC 'because right now, it's very, very tuned for Steam Deck' 3 weeks ago:
Bazzite is just straight up a better experience than SteamOS. Fedora backend with rpm-ostree is way better than what Valve has going on. And for Steam Deck, GNOME just makes more sense for touch interfaces.
Bazzite defaults to Plasma for Desktop Mode just as SteamOS. According to universal-blue.org/images/bazzite/installation/ Gnome is only the 4th installer choice.

I was puzzled why Valve chose KDE to be the default desktop for a touchscreen device.
The default software selection, especially when SteamOS 3.0 had launched, clearly showed that they picked a setup they wanted to use for themselves (my setup is heavily customized by now but I clearly remember VIM having been set as default text editor). If Valve was interested in Desktop Mode being primarily for touch use, they could go with Plasma Mobile instead of Plasma Desktop. Plain Gnome without any extension is not good to use as either desktop or handheld. The Gnome developers can’t even make up their mind which shell to use for touch devices because they literally have two competing ones (Phosh and Gnome Shell Mobile).

- Comment on The Steam Deck's budget price tag is the reason I still rate it nearly two years on 3 weeks ago:
Performance optimization is also on the developer to do. Proton isn’t magic. Developers need to treat Steam Deck like any other dedicated platform.

Then sell it. 🤦

- Comment on feat. coffee mug, standard case and microsoft foldable keyboard. 1 month ago:
there is no way the sd case has enough loose fiber to clog them massive vents.
Fibers loosen all the time from any form of fabric. Dust also sticks to the inside of the case. It’s inevitable unless you leave the case in a vacuum.
- Comment on feat. coffee mug, standard case and microsoft foldable keyboard. 1 month ago:
It’ll certainly suck up loose fibers from the case. There are foldable stands out there that become very tiny when folded. That’s way better than clogging up the vents with dust and fibers.
- Comment on SteamOS 3.4.11 Update: October 6th 1 month ago:
The beta also had a firmware update included. Don’t know if it was the very same or an earlier version.
