I think people are missing the point here. The biggest problem was not that the update was bricking the machines, that could’ve happened to Linux/macOS/BSD etc. The problem is that the solution to the problem is to MANUALLY access the machine, get into safe mode and type some commands. This is insane. And you should be able to EASILY disable automatic updates for apps like that on Windows Server.

I don’t know exactly about Woodpecker CI because I haven’t used it very much, but GitHub Actions is Beta software. Has A LOT of bugs, no QoL features, spaghetti codebase, the Runners are AWFUL to selfhost… and I could go on.

Elden Ring in a nutshell

I’m using Poetry as well. But I really hope Rye works out so we can finally end this madness.

And it would be even more useful with Windows than SteamOS, Windows only has the desktop mode.

Well said! The people behind the Steam Deck are passionate about gaming and making a device they would use.

That’s a good point! Apple, Samsung and others have been destroying the consumer electronics space for years.

I agree. First we need to solve the Linux compatibility issues, then we can start thinking about new CPU architectures. It would have been too much to deal with at the same time.

Yep. I mean, better hardware specs are a really good thing, but that alone does not make me want to buy a device.

Me too :) I’m gaming exclusively on Linux for more than 5 years now. The Steam Deck was a blessing for this already amazing Linux gaming ecosystem, so I had to buy one (actually two now, I really wanted the OLED version 😁)
