Yeah fingers crossed, I also have one one order, but worried about the PSU

It sucks you had those issues, but it’s good to hear the support team does actually provide support

Flashback to ~2008-2009 when all laptops went from 16:10 to 16:9 and we couldn’t understand why. 16:9 was for TVs and watching movies. 16:10 was for computers to do work.

While it’s true finding 16:9 desktop backgrounds is easier, and watching movies and TVs without black bars is nice, 16:10 is much nice when actually using a computer to do work. Taskbars, toolbars, tabbars, headersbars etc take up a lot of precious vertical space, leaving less space for application content.

Yeah, I think of downvotes as crowdsourced moderation:

Posts made in bad faith, with a toxic attitude or wildly offtopic get a downvote

It’s clickable on Jerboa app too

I feel the same, I was only ever a lurker on Reddit. It’s lot easier to have something to contribute on these smaker communities when each post doesn’t already have a thousand comments :)

While (WRC) rally is interesting to watch for the driving and car control, the fact that it’s Time Trial makes it less enjoyable.

So I prefer Formula 1 because it’s an actual race. Everybody races at the same track at the same time, first one to cross the finish line wins. Overtaking is a thing. And the race can change on a dime with changing weather conditions and tactics for pitstops, accidents etc. Of course some tracks can be dreadfully boring where it just becomes a static endurance run from start to finish, but when the racing is good it’s so exciting.

When I was a kid there was Rally Cross shown on national TV. I wish they’d bring it back. They raced a few laps around the track. The cars look like normal cars, they banged in to eachother, the tracks were half dirt half asphalt, the teams were part amateurs and part professional teams

One main / general account with a arbitrary username, And one more with a username shared with my other socials, on a different instance Also a third one I created on a third instance while figuring out this Fediverse stuff during the first Reddit migration

Also a kbin account to try out kbin

It does yes. Although it launches Steam directly as its own … “shelll”? Is that the right word? KDE is bypassed entirely unless you launch “Desktop Mode”

Anyways, I still wouldn’t recommend Arch to a new user, go with something easier and more mainstream for your first Linux experience. PopOS, Mint, Fedora, Norabora, Ubuntu/Kubuntu

Also, saying Steam Deck uses Arch isn’t wrong, but it’s a bit misleading. It uses an Arch base , curated, configured and tested by Valve, and finally periodically shipped as updates using immutable root images (on a single well defined hardware platform). If you install vanilla Arch yourself you’re responsible for all configuration and testing yourself.

I’m so torn on this… on the one hand always online DRM “leased” games from what’s effectively a monopoly is bad.

On the other hand… Proton good. Like really really good. Valve has done so much for Linux gaming through their Steam Machine and now Steam Deck initiatives
