  • Valve’s master plan for Steam Machines is finally coming into focus

    Jump

  • Moonlight also still builds for it, you can get it from their GitHub, extract it to a fat32 usb drive and boot the Steam Link with it connected.

  • Usenet Black Friday Deals (for downloading movies and tv shows)

    Jump

  • As a complete usenet newbie (I usually torrent all my linux iso) is there any caveat to getting that bulknews 6 TB block deal to last me for an eternity as a backup? It seems too good to be true.

  • Dual-booting as an intermediate phase for fully switching OSs

    Jump

  • I can recommend Btrfs for testing distros on bare metal. You can install them onto subvolumes without needing to change the physical partition layout, then once happy with one delete all the other subvolumes to reclaim your space. Only downside is not all distros' installers support them natively so it needs some manual work occasionally.

  • [Discussion] Steam Autumn Sale has started. What are you buying for your Steam Deck?

    Jump

  • Discord now properly supports screensharing on linux

    Jump

  • Haven't used it in a while but from what I remember it always puts you in idle if you do something else and only back to online if you do something in Discord itself, as expected from the Wayland limitation.

    It could be implemented with the ext-idle-notify-v1 protocol.

  • Valve first came up with the Steam Hardware Survey more than 20 years ago because it wanted to know what specs it should target for Half-Life 2

    Jump

  • I remember someone asking on another post whether we'll get an article for every single line of the HL2 documentary.

    Yes, yes we will.

    ^(and since I haven't watched it I don't mind that much)

  • 32GB Ram and Linux

    Jump

  • zram is swap on ram, it works by compressing parts of the ram when you run low and it's much faster than traditional disk-based swap.

  • Polychromatic now available on Flathub to manage your Razer peripherals.

    Jump

  • I've looked through the repo and it seems to be used to check for the current OpenRazer version and to get a list of supported devices and download images of them from Razer servers.

  • 32GB Ram and Linux

    Jump

  • When I started hitting OOMs I just downloaded free ram.

    (Modifying my zram-generator config to use 1.5x my ram size instead of the measly 4GB – uncompressed – default. Seriously it's worth looking into, though default depends on your distro)

  • Our face when climate change kills us all

    Jump

  • Whenever this meme pops up again I'm at least somewhat comforted this isn't the first year like this.

  • When the Steam Deck was still just an idea, Valve says some staff were like, "I just want that for me" and "the point wasn't even to make a product out of it"

    Jump

  • This is so important, especially as we live in an age where tech being churned out that ends up as paperweight is the norm. Being solidified in the Linux kernel we know this thing will live on for decades until in 2080 they will pull the plug on the x86 architecture and you'll be one of the 3 people still around to remember it

    VS Code vs VS Codium: What's the Difference?

    Jump

  • Nerd shit, I really should be ashamed of my rule

    Jump

  • It's just bangs that flipped over to the other side from turning their head :')

  • How's your bottom surgery 1+ years later?

    Jump

  • There's a reason we aren't as harsh on the Steam Deck. Actually, a couple.

    Jump

  • Either through Steam Cloud as others have already said, or something like Ludusavi.

  • spreading misinformation online (javascript??)

    Jump

  • LG says its new 'Dream OLED' tech cracks the pesky problems that prevent OLED gaming panels being brighter and lasting longer

    Jump

  • Hoping this also tackles the rampant VRR flickering issue on every single OLED monitor currently on the market.

  • Team earth is best

    Jump

  • Sports like boxing come to mind where 3rd place isn't fought for, it's just bronze for both losers of the semifinals.

  • music rule

    Jump

  • I knew it dariacore is actually good for me.
