You can, technically, but there are some caveats.

SteamOS is not a general purpose OS. It is optimized to run on the Steam Deck (plus the Frame and Gabecube I guess). Its software components are tested on a limited range of hardware (specifically AMD silicon), and it might not have certain optimizations and compatibility fixes that are required by other consumer hardware. It also probably has some proprietary bits, especially the firmware.

The best option is Bazzite. It’s not based on SteamOS, but it is built with a robust gaming experience in focus. You can even get it to boot directly into Steam Big Picture. Watch this loud Aussie man do it!

The other option is HoloISO, which is an independent reimplementation of SteamOS. Their intention is to get as close to the real SteamOS as possible. Hardware support is limited (especially nvidia).

You have two kidneys, don’t you?

Floating point values: making your software misbehave out of nowhere since the year NaN.

Mount the network share (fstab or mount.cifs), and pass the login using the username= and password= mount options. Then point the volume at the mount point’s path.

Why does this guy sound like Filip Miucin? “We didn’t plagiarize, and if we did, we only did it by accident, and you’re the bad guy, actually, for reporting on it!”

Absolutely! Multiple, in fact. In order of preference:

1. Shut down the game, dissolve the company, and donate all remaining funds to a women’s shelter.
2. Prosecute groomers instead of banning and threatening the people who are trying to stop the fuckers and crying about vigilantism even when the proper reporting channels are used.
3. Use AI for a beneficial purpose at least one goddamn time. Scan the text and voice communications (it’s a public game, there is no expectation of privacy), flag suspicious exchanges for human review, then ban and report groomers.

Problem: the game is getting a notoriety for being infested by pedophiles and the developers are actively protecting them.

Solution: send your photographs to the game infested by pedophiles to prove you are a real child!

Fucking. Incredible. If this was written in a manuscript, it would be tossed for being too cartoonishly unrealistic.

Through brand recognition.

That is still so fucking mysterious to me. The Chinese Room makes exactly one type of game, which is “guided-interactive narrative experience” to be diplomatic. The exact opposite of Bloodlines 1. Dear Esther, Ozzy Mandus And The Crankhog Machine, their entire portfolio follows the same formula: strong in art direction, atmosphere, and story; weak in gameplay. Even a hit like Still Wakes The Deep only takes gameplay as far as “throw object to make the thing look away”. Their gameplay systems are not just middling but comfortably average, just enough to keep the player engaged while moving through the (admittedly beautiful) environments.

So why the fuck did Paradox choose them for Bloodlines 2? Are they stupid?

Sounds like it’s for the best. Paradox was killing CO.

It’s possible that, when the ISP revokes the public address and assigns a new one, the DNS record isn’t updated immediately and still points to the old address. Then every new request would be sent to the old, invalid address.

And this is where I start shilling for Tailscale. It’s a Wireguard-based mesh VPN that is designed to work from behind firewalls, NAT, and CGNAT. It has its own internal split DNS provider, and probably some mechanism to handle public address changes that is transparent to the tunnelled traffic. You can use it to share the server with only the devices that have the client installed, or expose the server to the internet.

I’ve got it set up on my OPNSense firewall as a subnet router that advertises the subnet where my servers are, and often stream from Jellyfin over it. There’s some overhead, but it’s never been disruptive.

Sometimes, “Yes, do as I say!” just doesn’t get the message through.

That is a completely valid reason to hate Microsoft. Who the fuck wants another Apple?

That’s pretty much what happened. Windows 8 was such dogshit that it might be indirectly responsible for the revolution of Linux gaming. https://archive.ph/iHl8q

(edit) The comments are fucking hilarious.

Who is this turkey anyway. He says it’s “unusable” but doesn’t say he’s used it. Had he done so he would have looked past the surface change and recognized the true power and smoothness under the hood. […] Way to go Microsoft too bad you need to put up with idiots that are too lazy to keep up with the times.

A whole new way of enjoying your neofetch fastfetch output!

I take it you’ve never done any serious software development.

No matter how much they try, the in-house testing environment will never be as diverse as the “wild”. Running the software in production, where it will encounter a vastly greater range of system configurations, and users who will report issues, is often the only way to catch the more elusive bugs. Like xz. And let me point it out because people seem to have completely missed it: they caught the bug and fixed it.

Imagine. Product is released, people buy the Steam Machine, and Half-Life 3 is just… there. Preinstalled on some of the units. The buyers post it on the internet and get called bullshitters. Then Half-Life 3 is officially announced the next day. The internet loses it. Gaben ascends to godhood. He. Has. Cooked.

Looks like you’ll have to remove the entire bottom shell. From GN’s video:

The shell doesn’t seem to have a separately removable battery cover, although I don’t see a reason why someone wouldn’t be able to just cut a hole or 3D-print an accessible shell. Dbrand comes to mind. Or that’s just a show piece and the retail product might have a battery cover.

It also looks like the screw posts don’t have threaded metal inserts, which is concerning.
