Basically SteamOS is just a tweaked version of Arch Linux that boots Steam Big Picture Mode by default and launches games with Proton. It’s not a full blown OS by itself.


Hence why Valve is releasing the Steam Machine to push SteamOS. It will illuminate a pathway to run away on. At least for gamers.
Only exists in my head ✅✅


I don’t see how it will have any effect beyond what the Steam store already has on the indie market. Indies already flourish thanks to Steam’s use of discovery algorithms instead of human curation.
The Steam Machine isn’t going to compete with consoles. It’s not a replacement for a console and the target market for this machine is PC users not console users. Console gamers who don’t know what Steam is will not buy this machine like they didn’t buy Steam Decks instead of Nintendo Switches. The goal of Valve’s hardware push is to show that an alternative for Windows is possible. Valve wants to break Microsoft’s monopoly on the PC market. Since Microsoft is the biggest threat for Valve. The more anti-consumer Windows becomes the more it puts Valve’s business in danger, since a shitty Windows experience can push PC gamers towards consoles.


Reminds me of this standup bit:

They are still not centrists on the political spectrum though. The political spectrum doesn’t shift right just because the political landscape shifts to the right.


always been socially liberal but fiscally conservative
Isn’t that just the definition of a liberal?
iPhone creates a Screen Time report if you want to see actual usage and not just battery usage.

It works like that in Dutch though. For example in Dutch the plural form for “baby” is “baby’s“
So the person who made this meme probably speaks Dutch.


Journalists, activists and even lawyers on the side of activists should always use something like Tails. No matter what companies like Proton promise or what the law in the country they operate in says.


Trump always acts like his family was on the Mayflower. He’s a second gen American and all his wives are foreign born. He and his entire family are just as much of a foreigner as Omar.
The Maserati falls apart the moment you’d drive off the lot. So a tree house is a million times better than a Maserati.
I never put plastic in the dishwasher even if it says it’s dishwasher safe. Like so many tupperware I own have warped over time even if it says it’s safe in the dishwasher and microwave. Also I like to reduce my micro plastic intake.

Books disintegrate when they are stored in an environment that is too dry. So only use those things when the environment is not dry already.
