I used to have a custom ROM that would allow me to change the color based on which app had the most recent notification: FB was Blue, SMS was Green. Let me be prepared ahead of time if it was going to be important or not.

Linux is great about providing that feeling of discovery. New tools, new processes, new paradigm... It's the best way to breathe new life into an old piece of hardware.

If this is your first major step, congratulations! If you're a regular, great job, keep it up; eventually you'll be a grey beard with the rest of us.

Not quite "time loop", but related: Return of the Obra Dinn. I need the developer to make another game with exactly the same mechanics.

They have a lot of practice from all the dropbears

There are a lot of interesting things in your post.

First, League typically doesn't work well on Linux because Riot doesn't care about Linux users. If League is going to be a deal breaker, I'd recommend getting a dedicated Windows system for the best time.

Second, your CPU has a known hardware bug with C-states. If you've been noticing your computer freeze often under Linux, disable C-states in your BIOS.

Third, are the games you're trying to launch purchased through Steam, purchased through a different store, or pirated?

Are you able to play any of your games, or is it just these few that have been giving you trouble? If it's every game, you may not have the nvidia driver or vulkan installed. Just to be sure, you can try running nvidia-smi in a terminal, which will show you which driver the system is using. If you are unable to run the command at all, you'll definitely need to install the nvidia driver

Darn

Maybe? I mostly mean the reaction time is slow: attacking with your character requires a build up, vs most other games in the genre (Hollow Knight, Ori) that feel more responsive.

Check your server sources. It could be that Windows Steam is using a closer mirror than your Linux Steam.

Luckily I have 6 years of Electronics manufacturing experience, so the math and theory are the things I'll need to learn most of. Unfortunately, those things are the hardest part...

It's fun, but I found the combat to be slower than most Metroidvanias

it's clicking non-stop Time for a new HDD, friend. Preferably an SSD

Me, whose going to start studying EE: 😭

So this is what they mean by "Dark Vision"

"Frutiger Aero" is the blending of nature and technology (e.g. bright nature wallpaper on a computer monitor). "Aero" is the glossy UI design.

That aesthetic is called Frutiger Aero, and would certainly be a welcome return from the current sterile design we're currently using.

Damn, that was insanely fast, quadruply so compared to Nouveau

Yep, Linux is certainly not perfect, and it's not for everyone, though it's improving all the time. A lot of the problems you were seeing come down to distro and Desktop environment, paired with hardware.

Because of the amount of choice and preferences we have, not all the desktop environments are feature parity, and each team has their own priorities. It's just a shame that you practically have to do homework in order to have the best experience, when Linux users themselves say that the biggest benefit is choice.

This is Steam Deck 1.5. They've said Steam Deck 2 won't be for another couple years.

Let me get this straight. Valve decides to break into a market with a niche product few people have purchased from other vendors in the past (GPD, Aya, etc), says "we want this to be affordable and just work", releases a 1.0 to test the waters, and you think their initial device should have had OLED?

I can see why you don't run any companies.

Decent. Not as good as the bottomless pit guy, though
