I’ve been gaming on Mint for years without any issue.
- Comment on I have joined the ranked of the steam powered. 2 weeks ago:
Too late! Next thing you’ll be installing Arch on your granny’s computer and wearing UNIX socks.

Oh noes! You have caught the communism now!
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
I mean, duh. How else would they go at it?
- Comment on Does anyone else use their steam deck as a PC? How's it? 3 weeks ago:
When I travel I take the deck and a Bluetooth keyboard with a trackpad. It works fine as a laptop in a pinch. With an external monitor it’s a perfectly serviceable PC.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
The western companies are too focused on the next quarterly earnings report to be able to formulate any sort of vision for the future. Which is not in any way surprising because that’s just the way the system is set up. But it would be the job of governments to set the agenda here, which they’ve been failing miserably at.
- Comment on Grab the Steam Deck LCD 256GB for cheap as Valve gave it a discount 4 weeks ago:
Does that mean we’re getting a new one soon? One can dream.
- Comment on The Witcher season 4 premieres next month, Netflix show off recast Gerry from the River and vampiric Morpheus 5 weeks ago:
This is either going to be really great or really terrible. No in-between.
- Comment on Meet the fascist trying to read everyone's chat messages 5 weeks ago:
I’d rather not, thank you.
- Comment on Following mass layoffs, Microsoft exec insists return to office mandate is "not about reducing headcount" 1 month ago:
And Windows 11 is not about advertising and surveillance. Right. Gotcha. Sure.
- Comment on China plans to outpace Neuralink with a state-backed brain chip blitz — seven ministries, a 17-point roadmap, and clinical trials where patients play chess 1 month ago:
You’ll never again be in danger of not loving the Dear Leader enough!
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Yes.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Sure, but at some point it’ll be just too outdated.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
The steam deck is getting long in the tooth and will increasingly have trouble playing newer titles. In PC gaming, you can’t have console-like product cycles.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Time for a successor, though. Sometimes I think Valve really doesn’t like money. They could make a crapton by bringing out a new Steam Deck and a Steam console.
- Comment on A massive Wyoming data center will soon use 5x more power than the state's human occupants - but no one knows who is using it 2 months ago:
Don’t worry. The power will be provided by imaginary nuclear reactors.
- Comment on Desktop Linux distros similar to Steam OS? 3 months ago:
Well i haven’t tried Bazzite, but you’re selling it really well. I agree that Mint is a bit behind in Wayland support and they should get on with it. On the other hand, none if those things are really very relevant for day to day use. As long as you stick to the software center and update manager in Mint, you won’t have any trouble installing software or applying updates.
- Comment on Desktop Linux distros similar to Steam OS? 3 months ago:
If you want to get started with Linux, I’d recommended Mint. It’s very easy to install and will run on just about anything. The Cinnamon desktop is pretty similar to Windows and you’ll feel right at home. Install Steam and start playing your games, it’s that simple. There are of course plenty of other excellent options but for ease of getting started, I don’t think anything beats Mint.
- Comment on Reddit in talks to embrace Sam Altman’s iris-scanning Orb to verify users 3 months ago:
Well, there’s one orb I certainly won’t be pondering.
- Comment on DOOM: The Dark Ages Has Reportedly Sold Less Than 1 Million Copies 4 months ago:
Needs more DRM.
- Comment on Liz Truss to launch her own ‘uncensorable’ social media platform 5 months ago:
Sounds like a plan.
- Comment on Liz Truss to launch her own ‘uncensorable’ social media platform 5 months ago:
Not even the vegetables are that dumb.
- Comment on Steam Deck Prototype being sold on ebay 6 months ago:
That’s why you make prototypes.
- Comment on This is the world's first sodium-ion mobile battery, a game changer in environmental sustainability, but it's not cheap 6 months ago:
Unfortunately most consumers only look at the sticker price, not TCO.
- Comment on Google Chromecast down: Users report streaming issues as service suffers huge global outage 7 months ago:
My Google Streamer has been working without any issues., FWIW.
- Comment on SpaceX Starship blows up twice in a row. 7 months ago:
Sure, but that is a valid concern nonetheless. One major reason for the early successes of SpaceX and Tesla was their ability to attract top talent. I don’t think anyone with any self respect wants to work there these days.
- Comment on The Newest Steam Deck Beta Client Quietly Rewrote UI To Support Other Hardware 7 months ago:
Yeah, give it to me, baby!
- Comment on Happy three years to the Steam Deck - the Linux gaming machine that changed everything 7 months ago:
Time for a new one!
- Comment on New Steam Console Powered by RDNA 4 Might Be in the Works at Valve 8 months ago:
But not as powerful as the average gaming PC. If you take a mini ITX board, an every level Ryzen processor and something like an RX 7700 that would make a pretty cool system. If you manage to sell that for under $600, you have a winner.
- Comment on New Steam Console Powered by RDNA 4 Might Be in the Works at Valve 8 months ago:
If you want to sell a Steam console, it has to do 4k pretty well, because that’s what TVs have these days. An APU won’t cut it for that, you’ll need a discrete GPU.
