Game mode is way better than big picture because

The Chromium base, which is what Steam is built upon, itself isn’t supported on Win 7,8. Can Valve work upon it to make it backwards compatible? Maybe. Will it be a pain in the ass to maintain? Absolutely.
Also, if you don’t want to upgrade to Win11, you can make a 2nd partition for Linux and enjoy your games.
IMO the only advantages the ROG Ally has over the Steam Deck OLED are
In every other way, the Steam Deck is superior (interface polish, battery life, HDR, touchpad).
It’s possible I have to RTFM.
I checked the Bazzite documentation for the Ally and it says SimpleDeckyTDP provides more features than HHD so I didn’t experiment with it at all. I prefer using the Decky plugin mainly because it fits with the Bazzite theme better :P
Hi, you’re absolutely correct and sorry for being unclear.
I mean precise TDP control (16W or 17W) and custom fan curves. I’ve used HHD, it’s also good. Most people simple switch between power saving / balanced / performance but wanted to go down further to extract a little more juice out of the device.
SimpleDeckyTDP is a bit tricky (open desktop mode - open terminal - paste command) to install but offers more customisation.
If I had to a host a HTPC, it would be with Docker as it’s a more reliable way to maintain a service.
You’re welcome!
I have been very particular in this review about the experience of using Windows compared to Bazzite, not the performance. I’ve seen many reviews talk about how one is offere 5-10 FPS more than the other OS but you really don’t notice that most of the time.
Windows can do everything that Linux can do on average but the experience is vastly different. That is what I’m trying to say in this post.
I would be happy if they just made sure it works with Proton. We would be seeing serious Linux native games when we have a 20-30% market share anyway.
The people from Heroic are already working on this.
The talk gives a brief overview on what they’ve been working on like UWP/WinRT in Wine, Comet for GOG multiplayer features and more. But Lidwin also does a quick little sneak peek intro on a new project called Maxima Launcher, an open source replacement for EA Desktop / Origin that will eventually get Heroic integration too.
Should have been called AITL (AITL Is a Translation Layer)
I think mkdocs is easier than hugo but less flexible in terms of capability. However it serves all my needs (list of webpages accessible from a central frontpage)
Stardew Valley is a good fit.
You tend to your farm, help people, maintain relationships with people by gifting them and changing their lives.
Unfortunately, i play the game like a maniac. Running around from morning 6 AM till 10 PM.
How is it compared to Cult of Lamb?
Old software - Do an annual release but make that release as bug-free as possible
New software using CI/CD - Push software updates as fast as possible to show high productivity. Bugs? We will get them in the “next” update.
I too am raw-dogging my Linux install
It depends on your usecase. We need more detail regarding what application (gui/cui/open source/proprietary/custom) you are trying to use
If the application doesn’t exist in those platforms, it’s a different story. You might need to use distrobox or docker. Don’t use nix because it’s overkill for what you want to do.
I like your description of yt-dlp
