  • the safest fastest but expensive way, get a second drive that’s big enough to run windows and your game. disable the drive from BIOS boot options and add an entry to your bootloader. i salvaged an old 512gb sata to do this for firmware/some legal document things that only work on Windows.

    there’s vfio but i believe you still need two video cards to get that working, one for the host one for the vm.

    just never trust windows on your main boot drive that only leads to you having to recover your bootloader when a windows update replaces it. and this is not a question of if they will it is a question of when.




  • Steam already stated they’re limiting to 1 per household.

    The longer timeframe also allows us to do some extra validation on the signups to make sure they’re real accounts, with only one per household.

    Limit one signup per household. We will use payment method, shipping address, and other information to eliminate multiple entries

    the only part they can’t tell is gifting. i think they could fix that by requiring the account that would have to claim it during purchase. otherwise SN + account + location would pretty much end scalping. and if they actually enforced the one household rule more children would actually get their games…












  • i had to double check its

    settings - window management - window behavior - window action - at the bottom you can set mouse wheel to ‘keep above/below’

    what launch options are you using on games? i haven’t had this issue using proton + native wayland launch options. iirc gamescope treats windowed apps differently because its only a container and doesn’t understand the diff between windowed and borderless windowed

    testing in baldurs gate 3, no launch arguments, this works in both borderless windowed and full screen for me without taskbar popping up. though clicking on the window sitting above in fullscreen minimizes and in borderless i have to click back in to regain mouse control. basically the overlay can steal focus, maybe a kwin rule on the overlay to prevent focus stealing might work?
