Bazzite is great.

I have an Ultimate 2 and I haven't been able to figure out how to do that so I can't remap the back buttons with Steam input.

What's the trick?

Their controllers are amazing but the naming convention is so bad.

Definitely do not do tapes.

I'd also recommend Backblaze. Their S3 compatible storage is pretty affordable. I backup to a Kopia repo and then replicate to Backblaze nightly.

Tapes require so much more work to keep up to date and mght not even be cheaper over time.

I miss the era around the release of Android 4 where there were all sorts of interesting 10" Android tablets coming out.

Fast storage is one of the cheapest components of modern PCs so I'm always surprised when Flatpak file size is brought up. It's not something I worry about very much.

I had one of these in translucent purple to match the Gameboy and it was dope.

I use GarHAge which uses open hardware and software and was pretty easy and cheap too. https://github.com/marthoc/GarHAge

Yeah that's a pretty important distinction. I can buy Rimworld from the Steam store, or I can buy a Rimworld Steam key straight from the Ludeon website for the same price or I can buy a DRM copy for less I just won't get Steam features like automatic updates, cloud saves, or the mod workshop.

Seems reasonable they don't want you using the platform for distribution while undercutting the storefront price.

So can developers just 'create' steam keys out of thin air that can be used to activate their game on steam? Does Valve get paid when the keys are created or activated? Or not at all?

Seems fair maybe if it's using all of Steams infrastructure, considering developers can distribute the game themselves without steam keys.

Consider buying used hardware from an office. Lots of places sell used gear for dirt cheap. A used office desktop with a used GPU from the last 3 years or so would be a massive upgrade without spending much.

Steam Deck is still a good deal for what it is though, but I wouldn't use it as a primary workstation.

On a handheld? Probably depends how much you use it outside game mode and what you do with it.

On a desktop? No. It's not intended to be a fully functional desktop OS.

Yup, I messed it up. I edited my post to be the correct way around.

Hemingway used to say "Write drunk, edit sober." I've modernized that a bit for my own personal philosophy:

Code drunk. Debug drunk. Merge drunk.

This way when I walk in I can find an open urinal between two people, pull my pants down to my ankles, put my arms around each of them and piss without touching my dick at all.

If you're playing BotW I'd recommend emulating the Wii U version using Cemu. Performance is way better overall but you'll still need to enable a 60fps mod.

I guess let me know when the revolution starts or when you figure out how to overthrow the two party system since they are clearly identical and equally bad.

Now I'm a big brain enlightened centrist who can feel good and smart about doing absolutely nothing to help anyone.

Thank you for the information, you can lecture me all about how much worse Democrats are when we share a cell in El Salvador.

All playable on PC for sure.
