Game mode is way better than big picture because

• support for decky loader
• control system level settings from game mode itself
• has gamescope which handles win32 game settings much better
• disables other OS processes/the desktop and frees up resources (not sure about this)
• control more things with controller instead of the touchscreen

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

• VRR with 120 Hz
• Anti-cheat support
• Slightly more powerful chip

In every other way, the Steam Deck is superior (interface polish, battery life, HDR, touchpad).

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.

Stardew Valley is a good fit.

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?

This reply is for informing you that both your and my comments are visible on the blog. Also, i’m posting from lemm.ee and the user is from .ml. So cross-instance comments are also working.

Good job @morrowind@lemmy.ml

This is a test comment to check the functionality.

“Copilot is really good at things which I already know” and that is perfectly fine

They should be comfortable with people not owning their stocks

At least it’s better than squishing the employees into a paste using tanks, right?

One day, I’ll make a technology classifier which will take a small description of what a product is doing and will classify it as scam and what type of scam it is. It would also say if the technology is already exists or is a minor derivative.

Then the world will know peace.

A happy fuck Microsoft to you as well 🎩
