Personally I didn't like Deepin and I didn't really use it for long so I can't say much about it. Anyway, it is part of the the extra repositories of Arch, so you can expect a current and maintained version.
It should be the same for other Arch based distros. Just stay clear of Manjaro. It should not be used by anyone.
Yea, no. It doesn't work with ssh agent and it cannot read includes and other configuration options. I believe it also tries to install some components remotely which is bad enough, but causes additional issues in environments with proxies or without internet access at all. Iirc also plugins must be installed remotely to work.
In a normal professional context it just does not work and it is a hassle to deal with. It might work in a home lab, but nowhere beyond that.
I watched the video and he is missing the point by trying to be in the center of the debate. There is either discrimination or acceptance and not much of a middle ground.
Points 1-5 are obvious and nobody should be confused about any of that. Of course he is right here and water is wet.
6 is actually a real problem, but it cannot be solved. Either you discolose it yourself which either leads to outing or staying in the closet or people assume for you which also leaves you in the closet. In my groups we stopped asking about pronouns to not put anyone on the spot, but there is no satisfying solution to this problem.
Of course you can demand others to refer to you in a way, the same way you provide a name. It is very much a social expectation and here the video is missing the point. Either you respect the other person or discriminate them, there exists no middle ground. It is the same as refusing to use their name. There is also no distinction if you disrespect them to their face or behind their back (talking to others about them).
In general it is safe to install as many DEs as you want. There is some overlap between (user) configuration files though which might be annoying.
It should be fine to experiment, but you might need to restore some settings afterwards. For daily use I would just stick to one DE. Personally I don't think there is really a reason to use multiple DEs as a single user. It would throw me off and mess with my workflow.
Also keep in mind that many DE also provide a set of default tools which add clutter. So you probably want to keep it low for this reason alone.
I was about to write the same thing. Really the object thing is the whole reason to use ORMs.
Using plain SQL is a compatibility and migration nightmare in medium and bigger sized projects. If anything using plain SQL is just bad software design at least in an OOP context.
Using the official dock, I don't have a picture until I sleep cycle* my Deck if the TV is not on before waking it up. There is no picture on either display until then.
Also I am using a tiny keyboard for waking up the Steam Deck and it never works if I replugged the device without another sleep cycle.
It's not great, but at least there are some workarounds. Which work for me.
*Sleep cycle means waking up the device and putting it back to sleep at least once
Two weeks? I would throw away the whole fridge if I left any food in there for two weeks.
Most foods are okay for around two days without any problems. Some foods may last up to 5 days if they are salty or contain some vinegar, but it requires throughout heating to be save at this point.
I would never eat anything older than that which has been exposed to air. It's a biohazard!
Yea, fair point regarding the single point of failure. I guess it was one of those scenarios that should just never happen.
I am sure it won't happen again though.
As I said it can just happen even though you have redundant systems and everything. Sometimes you don't think about that one unlikely scenario and boom.
Yes, I played most of it docked to my TV using a PS5 controller and only some undocked. There is no difference between docked and handheld mode like for the Switch though so it is fine either way.
Just don't expect the highest quality settings for any recent AAA game. Due to hardware specific optimizations it is seriously impressive what the machine can actually run.
I completed Elden Ring on the Steam Deck without problems and I assume the other Souls games would run even better. Vampire Survivor also runs fine, no surprise really.
It is awkward as a laptop, but for gaming it is really nice. It's the closest you can get to a gaming console for PC games.
I would probably prefer having a headphone jack. I am using wireless buds though. The problem with them is the price. While you can get decent wired earbuds for around $100 or even slightly less you have to pay at least $300 for decent wireless ones. Seriously I tried a few, but they all sounded like absolute garbage. It's probably a cheap DAC in all of them combined with even less available space due to batteries and other electronics.
Another downside is that you can only use them for like 5 hours at a time. It is fine most of the time, but on long train rides I hit the limitation a few times.
Overall I am happy with the wireless ones, they are convenient, but it is really expensive to replace them and you have fewer choices, so having wired headsets as an option would be great.
I never tried wireless Bluetooth interfaces though and I suspect they might be better than the inbuilt jack of phones which would make them obsolete in my opinion.
