This method makes it smaller and saves you the hassle of a battery that will degrade despite being unnecessary. Obviously you wouldn’t buy a 3D printer just to make a plastic box for your steam deck. You would only use it if you already had one. I agree that the article is shit.

If the GPU is giving you worse performance than the integrated graphics just take it out.

epic SDL my beloved

The reason is they want to use an HMD instead of the built in display so they make the deck smaller and lighter because they can

But thats different, the issue there isn’t the text drawing, its that it isn’t meaningfully asynchronous and console drawing is typically blocking (at least on windows)

See the minecraft f3 menu for a notorious example

Ooh, neat

Very different games

They had the balls to call wine an emulator

Probably a USB controller, considering that is what they said explicitly in the title. And probably the bandwidth the controller advertises to downstream devices.

Where have you heard that? The whole reason jack exists is professional audio

Alt-tabbing to another application (e.g. web browser) should not force you to close the game

Wsl is just a vm

I am not sure I understand, OP is clearly misinterpreting the text they quote

Wayland is the default on blender, that is what that text says

If you want to remote into the linux box, I recommend sunshine+moonlight. They are designed for “gamuurz” but that just means they are efficient.

This is an odd take. There is no inherent advantage to using an unfamiliar ui on linux, there is nothing under the hood that “works better” for any specific desktop environment

I don’t think this is a bad question at all, personally I would prefer to mount the drive once and symlink folders for a couple reasons:

1. It’s easier to automate
2. it’s theoretically faster (to initialize) as symlinks are effectively free
3. I personally like symlink syntax more than mount syntax :P

One possible con to symlinks is that certain (linux native) software can misbehave when it has to interact with them, but this is a fairly uncommon issue. Stuff ran through wine or proton should support them just fine, as they are abstracted away.

You can plug in a keyboard, mouse, and monitor
