That won’t work since Valve doesn’t want to bake such software into SteamOS.
My guess is that they’ll use FaceIt AC as a server side component to detect cheaters.

Valve still uses Ubuntu as it’s base for it’s Linux game runtimes. Dev’s are encouraged to use it for developing Linux games, since it guarantees specific dependencies being available. This runtime is a container which comes with Steam and works on any distro.
Valve basically solved Linux problem with too many distros with different deps.
Some gamepad player are really good. Especially in Overwatch, which has characters like Mercy, Moira or Reinhardt that can provide value even without good aim.
Though Overwatch doesn’t have aim assist on pc, so it’s probably difficult even for most experienced gamepad players.
One thing to keep in mind is that Framework makes it easier by directly selling in Europe. With S76 there’re import fees etc that make it less straightforward. Especially in case of an RMA.
Timeshift makes OS snapshots, but theming is stored almost all the time in the home directory. Deleting your home directory or only select folders (e.g. .config) would’ve probably reset theming. Or creating a new user.
They are even shipping through Amazon even if bought through Anker/Soundcore website.
But Oracle? How are they better in any way? RedHat still writes FOSS software. Oracle just profited off it being easy for RHEL customers to migrate to Oracle Linux. They do add on top of RHEL, but they could built a distro themselves too.
This article reads to me like satire from Oracle.
PS: I don’t like what RH done either.
IIRC organic maps uses OpenStreetMap data.
Trying sth new is never a bad idea. From live cd’s, over vm’s or distrobox containers, it makes you more comfortable in switching between environments.
If it works, don’t switch distros. There’s always an OS which does sth. better.
Waylock, because it keeps sway locked even if the screen locker crashes.
Flatpak is mainly for packaging desktop apps, whilst snap can update the entire distro (kernel, mesa, system apps, cli). Snap does things Fedora needs rpm-ostree for.
In my opinion docker isn’t as useful for cli tools. I need easy access to many little tools, and this results in me having one container with everything. But that doesn’t work well with network capture etc. In the end being able to install packages system wide quickly is really useful.
Agreed. I would have like Ubuntu to come with flatpak, but snap exists for longer than flatpak and has additional use cases. Snap allows to do app packaging and even the rest of the system. Fedora uses rpm-ostree + flatpak instead.
Yes, it’s good that they make money with such services. Services like hosting are a great way.
Snaps are used for Ubuntu’s IOT distro, and also for their upcoming immutable desktop. They even ship kernel and mesa as snap, which makes updating less likely to break a system (in case of a crash while updating, user error, …).
That’s why they push snap. Canonical doesn’t mainly aim to make a apps available to all distros like flatpak does. Just like now where all distros need their own packages, snap will coexist with other package formats.
For the user it’s unimportant how apps are installed, as long as they’re available.
I tried a Tuxedo Laptop a few years ago and the keyboard was noticeably worse than my T480s and a MX Keys Mini. But that probably depends on the model.
It really depends on the hardware. With 144Hz vsync isn’t much of an issue for me, but 60Hz is noticeably worse with vsync on.
RedHat already has no-cost RHEL licenses. The disadvantage is that it’s necessary to create a developer account, and one account only supports 16 devices.
It is an immutable distro, altough it isn’t image-based like Fedora’s rpm-ostree.
NixOS basically replaces Ansible because the Nix package manager achieves the same goals already (configuration, deployment, …).
But I agree, the work necessary to put into this non-standard distro makes it hard to recommend for a casual user.
Arch updates going bad is much more likely to happen if the system goes without updates for a long time. So I’d really not recommend it for a seldomly used laptop.
But regularly updated Arch is fine. Even if something breaks it’s usually easy to deal with.
