You'd have to check one of the side-distros. SteamOS itself has no official installer yet, only available pre-installed on steamdeck.

There are distros that are organized to recreate it for normal installation though.

Though to be fair, that's pretty "normie" to not have to experience the installation process at all. Most people will just use what shipped with their PC.

I mean, if you’re biggest argument is, “they might Google the wrong distro”

if you don't think that's an issue, you probably are in the tech-savy category

I meet people on a daily basis who can't even say what browser they're on.

like drivers are a mess compared to Linux

Maybe but if you google (which most users use for their daily driver, even on IOS/Android) you get pointed to the manufacturers who have the driver installers as simple as possible. These also come with auto updaters.

I mean you could not use the tools the manufacturers are providing, but at that point I'd argue you're trying to be a tech savy user when they offered a way not to.

And very, very, very few edge cases are more difficult than that. most are plug-n-play (which to be fair, Linux has as well)

If you try to google a result for Linux you get a bunch of results for distributions that might not be yours. if you try to google a result for your distro you might get a result from years ago that is strongly not recommended anymore (especially if it leads to that Ubuntutalks website). And then the absolute worst case scenario, where you google and don't actually find what you're looking for, because the manufacturer does nothing with Linux and nobody cares about the problem.

A lot of windows was made around things that non-savy users were breaking. Nowadays a lot of the major issues I see people talk about are because they tried to do something that was very clearly something that they didn't want to be done.

Pretty sure those users you're talking about don't understand desktop controls in general, and would be even worse on Linux. Because when we talk about tech savy we're not talking about basic controls.

Linux is a usable daily driver if you’re tech savvy enough.

A daily driver shouldn't need you to be tech savy. There should just be an added benefit for being tech savy.

No they're VERY different from what I checked. I'm not sure how you could possibly say "not that much" to that!

Since when was that a thing that Blizzard does?

Isn't the expansion content between SCII's expansions and AoE2's expansions significantly different?

EDIT: the last one was 3 races (note: races are significantly less diverse in AoE2 vs in SC2) and 3 campaigns, each with 6 maps each

I feel like the Co-OP commanders they added fairly frequently would constitute roughly the same amount of race content. Campaign content not so much but the main campaign of each SC2 expansion is 26 stages, not including branching paths.

"Just pay for it yourself" means don't do it unless you're already well off yourself.

Sounds like "Fuck you got mine" talk to me.

Is there no government oversight for "Uhh no you aren't?"

Given the recent animal testing results this seems like assisted suicide

Another point is the steamOS is still fairly new and needs to be worked on a lot more, since it isn't even fully utilizing the steamdeck yet, let alone ready for a new one

I'd argue you're treating your children like pets and not the human beings who have to grow up into this world without any actual knowledge, because you're pushing them away not from advanced knowledge but in this case what should be basics knowledge.

They have to learn about this stuff eventually, and teenagers are still not assumed adults legally. This would push them from that knowledge far, far, far too late.

You accept you're a bigot. We don't accept that it's "advanced sexual theory". Which just sounds like an attempt to shame people arguing actual logic to you.

Uhhh no it's not. Do you know what it fucking means?

Well he is also arguing to bury them in downvotes, which is partially helpful towards dealing with them

But since that doesn't matter on lemmy/kbin maybe reporting would be better. but still downvote since the option is there of course.

Who cares what "facts" a bigot makes? Bigots by nature claim non-factual things as facts.

If you'll accept you're a bigot then the discussion is done and your opinion doesn't matter to people who actually care about others.

Okay, i'm a bit confused, but why is this

1. A discussion about a discussion about a discussion?
2. Not a properly linked discussion, but rather a direct link to the instance?

If enough countries join in then there will be a barrier to actually making money off of it. Even if you become the leader in AI if your method is just banned in other countries the money won't be there.

That being said, it doesn't seem like it's going to get very far anyway.

I'd love if there were ways to use the controller and have the steam deck acknowledge this mode. Maybe then allow the monitor on the deck to do other things in the meantime.
