Agree with all that. “The year of Linux” will be built up to incrementally; and the fact that gaming is so good on Linux pushes that a long way.
The Steam Deck is what pushed me to change to full-time PC Linux myself. Having hardware with pre-installed Linux that works flawlessly has been great.

Mine was a pre-release preorder as well.
I wouldn’t upgrade it now. Knowing me, I’ll probably end up waiting till 2027 and buy a secondhand device from 2026.
I mostly play indie 2D games, so games I want still work fine. The revised Deck has a bunch of improvements I would have liked (OLED, WiFi 6, etc). If there are enough improvements in usability (screen, WiFi, size, battery, hardware power), then I’ll upgrade and give the old device to my kids (who currently use it for more than 75% of the time anyway).

I hope so too, but I don’t think a shift that big is coming any time soon.
Linux users are still a tiny proportion of the online player base. Steam Deck sales are negligible compared to Switch or console sales.
I hope it happens eventually,but I think it’s going to take much longer for devs to take Linux seriously.

Hyped about the devices we’re going to see over the next year or so. Should be just in time to replace my first release Steam Deck as a noticeable upgrade.
- Comment on Is there a community dedicated for serious discussion? 1 week ago:
I haven’t found any. Anything of that sort would need heavy handed and laborious moderation and would lend itself to quite a lot of bias from moderators. Your best bet is to do this sort of thing locally with a small group of friends (or internet friends).

Oof. Totally not an attack.
Isn’t this the point of therapy? That we can change out own world by working on how our brain perceives and processes it.

Circle of influence vs circle of concern. The answer still lies within you to be able to calibrate your mind to be able to live through a shit situation, and do what you feel able to improve it.

Lemmy is too small and insular. Only mainstream (politics) or echo chamber (Linux) content gets enough momentum.
Reddit was large enough that you could shun the main communities and still find enough content in really niche communities.
People also don’t stick to designated communities and posts overflow to all sorts of places. I block all politics, but want to see memes. But all the meme communities are overflowing with political memes.
It’s a difficult time politically too, and Lemmy (socially liberal) is very much against incumbents (conservative nationalists) in most parts of the world.
My advice would be to expect little relevant content. Use an app that let’s you block things (I like Boost). Block all the communities and keywords you want (Trump, parliament, elections, Ukraine, etc etc). Ultimately cut back on social media use as it will always focus on politics. Go directly to sites that cover content you like.

My family culture as a child was that sleep is sacred. If there were plans and places to go, but someone was tired and fell asleep on the sofa, then the light would be switched off, a blanket fetched, no one else goes in the lounge and the plans got delayed or cancelled.
Now I’ve married a woman who wakes me up to ask me if I’m sleeping.

- Comment on Why doesn't Steam support Android? 4 weeks ago:
Ideas like this haven’t come up for the first time. I expect this idea occurred to Valve and they thought it was not worth the investment of money/manpower/infrastructure.
Valve would either have to publish on Google Play. That would put it in the role of a developer and Valve is not really pushing on its developer role significantly.
Or Valve will have to try to make an alternative store… And that is no small feat. Most people will not sideload apps or install other store fronts. I imagine the proportion of android game sales that Valve can get into will be tiny enthusiast communities, and that won’t be anywhere near enough to pay the bills. On this alternative store, Valve will have to get developers to make games…or again they will have to consider developing games in house to get the ball rolling. Their best bet would likely be to use their existing IP to make mobile spin-offs (DotA card game? Or a wild-rift type MOBA? CS:GO turn based tacticle game? Or try to compete with CoD for the FPS market?).
I can’t see any combination of the above that seem like probable success for Valve. It’s admirable that they’re sticking to their niche and what they know. Pushing further into the handheld gaming and console market has been a much better option for them and they’re trying hard. Even in that aspect, the Steam Deck is universally praised…and is selling roughly 2.5% as many consoles as the Nintendo Switch. And no one I know IRL knows about the Steam Deck (other than my brothers, who bought one after I told them I had pre-ordered mine).

My younger one (4) gets scared by Bowser and comes to me. I have to do the same stages over and over for him. But he’s getting better.
The older one (6 now) finished Super Hexagon (all stages) and Ori to 100% completion at the age of 4. He used to ask for help with the last stage of Super Hexagon… That was way beyond my abilities. Really need to get this kid onto Street Fighter to male use of these skills.

You know you shouldn’t joke about these things. These are very serious matters. You’re very luck and privileged, but some people really struggle. We’ve tried our best to provide you with everything and give you a comfortable life, but don’t forget how hard others have it. You don’t appreciate all this or appreciate us. We still need to talk about your grades by the way.

I haven’t tried Winlator myself.
Less demanding Switch games work fine. The Retroid Pocket 5 would have better performance and there are videos on youtube with game demonstrations to see performance.

Android tablet with built-in controller?
Yes
Does it run (x64) PC games
There’s Winlator, but you’ve gotta manage your expectations for the performance you expect for PC games.
(arm) Android games and emulators
Primarily this

Lemmy is fragmented and I don’t know if posts get visitbility across communities. It seems Lemmy.world gets more engagement and that should be the primary place to post. It’s a shame that cross posts don’t bring everyone to the same commenting area to engage with each other.

PSP had so many great games. I’ve got China Town Wars, Rock Band, Wipeout Pure, Patapon, Mercury Meltdown, Final Fantasy Tactics…and really wish I had the time to get to all of these.
