The mouse feels more sluggish when using the wireless dongle compared to it being wired.
You have to set the profile for both wired and wireless mode since they're different USB IDs. Dealt with the same thing on the same mouse. Same thing with Solaar if you use it to set the polling rate.
It is dev dependent, but I don't agree with "devs can implement it just as easily" at all. One only requires using a built-in API to create notification channels (which you have to call anyway), the other requires designing and programming your own page for it.
I bought a used magic trackpad 1 to use on Linux. It works quite well out of the box including multi touch capabilities but sometimes if you do a lot of movement in one go it will lag behind. The newer ones can be used wired and use higher Bluetooth versions so that's hopefully not an issue.
One noticeable limitation for all is that they run at 90 Hz which is noticeable on a 144 Hz screen, but there aren't really alternatives as far as I could find.
At least for anything statically linked where the GPL code would end up as part of your binary and force you to GPL your own code I believe.
Anything more lax is fine, so you could also release your code under MIT license if you use GPL modules. Yes, it does force you to release your code but after all it's a protection for the user. Furthermore, GPL does not mean your software has to be free of charge, you can still sell it as long as you attach the source code for the end user.
Especially after hearing that some sticks/touchpads (I can't remember what) don't work immediately after booting into Steam OS with the new SSD.
No need to worry, this is just because the recovery image installs an older SteamOS version which does not support the updated firmware of the controls.
The touchscreen and especially mice and keyboards connected via USB should always work, then after a system update that gets you back to a recent SteamOS version the controls will work again as well.
I wonder if this is due to antitrust law reasons. Already low Linux market share + secure boot having made installation even harder does not set a good precedent for Microsoft.
Just downloaded BioShock 1 Remastered on my deck and launched it in offline mode, works fine! No launcher even without any arguments, maybe they disabled it on Linux due to the issues.
The head of the german extremist right-wing party is a lesbian with a Sri Lankan immigrant partner who lives part-time with their adopted children in Switzerland. Identity will always be secondary to wealth in a system like this, it's a one-way street.
