- Comment on Youtuber PewDiePie is going all in on deGoogling and the Steam Deck is one of the surprising tools that's helping him to 'escape' 3 weeks ago:
Joking about jews or saying the n word never made anyone a fascist. Fascism didn’t even include antisemitism, it was just added later on because of Germany’s policies. Calling pewdiepie a fascist is wrong intellectually, historically, politically and ideologically.
The only people normalizing fascism are the ones calling everything fascist and making the word lose power and giving new blood to the idea of fascism.
Fascism is a very specific thing, born in a very specific country and with a very specific ideology. Not every authoritarian country is fascist. Not every racist idea is fascist.
People were idiots before fascism. And they can be idiots without being fascists now too.
It’s the same as calling communist everyone that ask for minimum wage or free/cheap healthcare. It’s dumb.
- Comment on “It took 12 years of work to get here”: interview with Pierre-Loup Griffais, developer of SteamOS, the flagship OS of the Steam Deck 5 months ago:
That’s what I did recently, and most things just worked out of the box even with a Nvidia card. Notable mentions, tho, multiple streaming providers and game add-ons refuse to work on Linux no matter what you do, which could definitely be annoying if that’s something needed often. Almost all other things can work out with an occasional research needed .
