The big boost for gaming is only relevant if you do not use Proton. While there might be some boost for selected games, in general the new Kernel 6.14 shouldn’t make much of a difference for Steam gamers using Proton. Because Proton already got some alternative to NTSync mechanism, which improved some titles already.

The benchmarks presented with huge %-boosts and improvements are compared to previous WINE version, which do not have some of the alternative optimizations from Proton. Therefore I would be a bit cautious, if you already play on Steam using Proton.

I disagree. Copyright is not bad.

What a dumb statement. Copyright has nothing to do with money. Copyright is for everyone.

The biggest problem with Ai is copyright.

Glue is pretty strong and can work well. If you do it right.

Tesla is the only car company on earth in history in the entire universe that has every single existing model subject to a recall.

When i read the post title, I honestly thought this is a meme.

I thought Polonius would be part of the 2024 Edition, and was sad not seeing being mentioned at all. Good to see its still being worked on.

This can easily be solved by bundling all update commands into a single command. I have an alias for this, that updates everything with just a command called update. There is no need for an extra software. But you have to figure out the commands and options to do this correctly. For my operating system EndeavourOS, I have this:

alias update='eos-update --yay ;
  flatpak update ; 
  flatpak uninstall --unused ; 
  rustup self update ; 
  rustup update'

then run it with:

update

… which updates the system, the AUR, Flatpak and my Rust environment. You don’t need to rely on any third party software to update your system.

If anything, a fork would take its place. If something like that would happen. It doesn’t even need much change, only the name and branding, and the user agreement. While doing so some defaults would change too probably, as a sideeffect. To be honest, I hope this happens.

The Ubuntu and Manjaro era is over. Arch is the new Ubuntu (by popularity for gaming). Fedora and Endeavour also grew a lot. Question is if they reached their ceiling already. Pop OS could explode in popularity once COSMIC is out, but maybe not for gaming. Bazzite got even a patch note addressing an issue with this specific distribution in the game Marvel Rivals. Here is a lot of potential for this distro, as an alternative for the future general SteamOS distro (if it ever comes out as a general install media). BTW, nobody seem to talk about HOLO ISO anymore.

That was my exact same thoughts.

• Notes are now available on the web! You can find them on the games list. Select the “Games” option under your profile name, then find the new “My Notes” option on the “My Game Content” menu. They will be added to the Steam Mobile app in a future update.

Makes notes much more useful if you have a Desktop Pc and a Steam Deck. It would be nice if the notes could be accessed directly on the store page too.

I would like to have that too. When I looked (oh god its already a year ago) couldn’t find any. I’ve created a control scheme that I would like to share and its fairly complex. Having a standardized files to edit for sharing, or better yet, convert directly from Steam and export to an image (.png or .svg) would be great.

Anyway, no solution, just expressing my interest. I actually want to write a manual for the control scheme.

Please do not make a SteamOS exclusive game. I love Linux and Steam Deck, but this is not a good idea to exclude Windows users from playing the game.

I also bookmarked the Librewolf Flatpak package. I consider to change my browser (Firefox) for the first time in 20 years or so, since its inception. I do not rely on the Mozilla account, so the switch should be easier for me. Passwords should be compatible I assume. In worst case you can export and import passwords.

They do not get ownership, but a license to do what they want with it. Giving a license does not change ownership, yes they are correct with this.

Ayaneo Next II seems to have two trackpads and Lenovo Legion Go 2 only one.

Agreed. The touchpads are one of the key points why the Deck is so great to me. I could live with only one, but it really requires at least one touchpad; ideally two.
