Yes but you can literally have “known supported hardware” without literally building a “ground up Linux machine”.

That’s cool but probably unnecessary. The vast majority of hardware works fine.

I definitely opted for an AMD GPU in my new gaming rig specifically to run Linux/ChimeraOS, and hopefully one day SteamOS.

When you get around to a new laptop, look out for one that is Linux compatible. Unfortunately many hardware OEMs don’t take the time to provide drivers for Linux, and that causes problems.

We’ll see when it comes closer to that time. Historically I have voted for whoever I liked or just not voted at all. Maybe 50/50.

Not surprised. Several years on and I still can’t get Fallen Order working properly.

So you don’t think it’s possible for someone to support a project and simultaneously acknowledge that it doesn’t suit everyone’s use-case?

I won’t vote for Biden for a myriad of reasons but I’m sure as shit not voting for Trump either.

The entirety of our federal election is built on a false dichotomy and I won’t contribute to it.

I think you’re misreading the comment you replied to. It’s obviously sarcastic.

I’d rather buy it than spend hours and hours downloading and failing to unpack it for unknown reasons.

But I’m not going to spend more than like 10 minutes trying to make it work. If it takes longer than that, it’s just a shit game that doesn’t deserve my money. Too many other perfectly good games to spend my time playing to fuck around with all of that.

Someone buys an expensive car. They say “I cant use the railway!” Are you going to tell them they’re wrong?

Yes. Because they are.

We dont know if they live next to a railway line. They’re also heavily invested in the car and unlikely to pay out for rail tickets.

None of which indicates they “can’t use the railway”. It may not be their preferred travel method, which is fine (in the metaphorical sense), but to say they “can’t” use the railway is simply untrue.

OP said “the software and driver support isn’t there”.

Someone replied and corrected them to explain the software and driver support does in fact exist.

OP replied to say that what he actually meant was that it didn’t support the specific software and driver they wanted to use.

Seems like a perfectly reasonable conversation.

Wow Steam actually got almost all of these 🤣

Not true. Many of the smaller phones on the market have additional features that the bigger ones don’t. Or at least they used to when they existed.

This. If I’m required to give up all my personal info I might as well get some cash back and all the other CC benefits.

in my opinion the less people have your information the better.

Yeah that’s kinda the point…

Been running it at 1080p no problem for several days.

almost as if there IS demand for small phones…

There is but the demand is small. The smaller the demand gets, the more they flock to whatever options are available.

I don’t believe the small phone gang is small, we just have one option: a pretty expensive iPhone mini.

You have it backwards. You have no options because your gang is too small. You used to have options but the market has moved far far away from that.

They won’t. It’ll break and you won’t be able to repair it before then.

Shows like this should have zero input from executives. If you are not willing to let the show have free rein, you don’t deserve to host the show.

What if the talent wants to glorify pedophiles?
