Games run faster on SteamOS than Windows 11 - Ars Technica
11mon 27d ago in steamdeck@sopuli.xyz from arstechnica.comYeah it is suspicious. Would be interesting if someone tried to decompile them to try and see if they hold any secret or malicious functions. I know that many of them have serious security vulnerabilities as is.
If even Microsoft was/is considering giving custom kernel modules the boot and potentially not allowing them in the future (due to similar but unrelated issues) why should the Linux community embrace proprietary kernel modules from companies who's goal is antithetical to the user, and which are probably horribly insecure and/or rootkits themselves.

I used to be a frame rate snob but owning a Steam Deck has made me realise the error of my ways
2y 2mon ago in steamdeck@sopuli.xyz from www.pcgamer.comAs someone who used to play mostly on older consoles with framerates locked at 60 or even 30 FPS I never really understood framerate snobs, the only real time I see it making sense is for VR since you need high frame-rate for that, but for normal games (no I will not call them 'flat games') it's overkill, at least in my opinion.

2y 3mon ago in meta@sopuli.xyzGender isn't real: it's just an idea
2y 6mon ago in memes@sopuli.xyz from sopuli.xyzYep and I never understood the idea, it just seemed weird to me. People always said to me that you can just feel your gender but I don't feel a gender or know what it would feel like. That's how I found out about being Agender, well it was after I found out about being AroAce and I wondered if the A- prefix could apply to gender, and it does.
Chromebooks are objectively the worst kind of computer
