  • External storage on Steam OS is a problem

    Jump

  • The steam deck doesn't auto-mount external hard drives (you can confirm this by going into desktop mode and seeing the prompt to mount and browse the drive contents). Normally, SteamOS only initializes the internal SSD and the SD card currently inserted (if it's in the file format that SteamOS expects, they provide a tool in settings).

    You could purchase an SD card, place it in the slot, change over to Desktop mode, mount your external drive, and then copy your games over using steam (it's even a feature outside of SteamOS - offline transfer between storage). That would probably be the best option.

  • Nah, the angle would be too aggressive - unless the boards have an extremely high friction coefficient, they would slide off to the right (along with anything on top of them).

  • Rust developer has 'no plans' for Linux or Proton support, says games that support them are 'not serious about anti-cheat'

  • This is the funny part: they run rampant on official servers. The community hosted ones with independent admins and moderators have much cleaner playing fields lol, and they can turn off the kernel level EAC

  • The ChromeOS of Linux: Basic use cases, impossible to break, ~1,000 happy(?) users, Nix based. Nixbook OS.

    Jump

  • As someone with an IT background who has spent countless hours helping family members, you end up with users (mainly children) who copy and paste random crap from the internet and break something, even if there's safety glass over the self-destruct button (sudo). I'd rather have the extra peace of mind to know they can't fuck it up.

  • That's a reasonable point of view - I've just had plenty of negative experiences with immutable distros that completely undo any customizations I've performed (SteamOS mostly), but that does somewhat come down to nitpick territory.

    A better way to put it is enthusiasts don't need an immutable distro, but can use one well. However elderly, very young children, and the tech illiterate likely require an immutable distro to prevent accidental (or misguided) mishaps, unless there's special circumstances that require something else.

  • It's what you would recommend for people you can't trust even with having glass over the self-destruct button. Immutable distros are the equivalent of pouring a concrete shell.

    The elderly, very young children, and the tech illiterate (who have no desire to learn) would be appropriate candidates. Enthusiasts, students, programmers, and those who tinker/create probably don't need that level of safety.

  • A scam call center opened in the office next door. Who do I report them to?

    Jump

  • If they're using your guest network, identify their MAC addresses and log all of their activity. Alternatively, you could also restrict their access or place a password on the guest network.

    Jump

  • I mean... deploying ransomware to the identified MAC addresses on their guest network shouldn't be too hard...

    Or logging all of their activity for that matter...

  • RUST is a game, Rust is the programming thing. Maybe we need to normalize that in posting articles lol

  • It's been polished a lot since then (they update every month), but yeah, it's still around and it's fun. Sucks that Alistair has this take tho.

  • I enjoyed rust by hosting my own personal whitelisted server for my friends and I to mess around on, that's my favorite way to enjoy the game. You can play on linux by disabling their anticheat on your community server (since the server just rejects the proton client with EAC enabled, you don't get banned).

  • Best value card for >200€? New or Used

    Jump

  • A 12GB card for 200 euros or less would be incredibly far from reality, unfortunately. Maybe if they bought a 1080ti, but that's not the greatest move in 2025.

  • Best value card for >200€? New or Used

    Jump

  • 200 Euros? You aren't going to get anything new for good value with that budget, unfortunately. You're looking at a minimum of 2 generations behind current.

    RTX 30 series cards (although avoid anything with less than 8GB VRAM if possible), equivalent AMD gpus, or anything from Intel ARC with decent VRAM could fit the bill, all of it would be used though.

    VRAM is usually your bottleneck when it comes to cheap cards, so look out for anything with at least 8GB.
