Has anyone figured out how to do online multiplayer emulators yet?
I don't know if it's still active, but Kaillera was dope. I remember 1v1ing people in Mario Kart 64 like a decade ago.

Good MMORPG on Linux
Stop caring about native. It seriously just doesn't matter anymore.
XIV Launcher is the easiest way to get FF XIV running, plus it can link to your phone to almost automatically handle OTP (no typing it in, your phone just sends the code over your local network), but you could also just install the trial inside Steam, should work fine.
Copypasta time. "Did you know that the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV has a free trial, and includes the entirety of A Realm Reborn AND the award-winning Heavensward and Stormblood expansions up to level 70 with no restrictions on playtime? Sign up, and enjoy Eorzea today!"

Steam Deck OS 3.4.9 released with GPU fix for Starfield

I don't get the hate. The articles are always simple and informative, and just written by some dude. It's not like he's some garbage repetitive content farm, but you don't need "hard hitting" news to be useful or interesting. Chill dude

[Gamers Nexus] Valve Steam Controller Review | Latency Benchmarks, Battery Life, Repairability
Day one buy when it's available in my region. My original steam controller was amazing until the wireless adapter crapped out (plus its Bluetooth mode was not great, sadly) and the A button membrane broke. I even tuned that fucking thing to play 2d platformers competently, let alone shooters with gyro aim. I missed it.
My Steam Deck has been rock solid and I've wanted something with an identical layout for my PC and docked Deck since it released. I can't wait

"Valve’s new Steam Controller has a major problem for PC games not on Steam"
The controller requires some sort of drivers to get out of lizard mode and work as a general controller (with remapping and everything). This has been known as it acts identically to Steam Deck and the OG Steam Controller.
If you want to use the controller without Steam being used (which, it's worth noting, you can add non-steam games to Steam to use the controller, or adjust the default desktop profile to be a normal controller), then you should be able to use SISR (formerly GloSC and GloSI): https://github.com/Alia5/SISR
Or, on Linux, use sc-controller: https://github.com/C0rn3j/sc-controller

Could be a bug in their crash handler, just like, infinitely looping and printing something over and over.

Supposedly it's actually pretty decent if you just turn off all of the quest markers and whatnot in the settings. Turns it into more of an immersive story driven exploration game instead of an Ubisoft clear the map checkbox game.

It's just regulation. No sweepstakes allowed without some "skill" involved

I'm sorry little one...

This. Do I want an OLED deck? Yes. Do I need one? Absolutely not. I like my deck enough and I can wait for Steam Deck 2.

One Of The Rust Linux Kernel Maintainers Steps Down - Cites "Nontechnical Nonsense"
Reply in thread
There's a long thread on Mastodon by the main Arm Mac Graphics dev for Asahi Linux. Perhaps one of the fastest developed and most stable graphics drivers ever made, thanks to a couple amazing developers but also very very much thanks to Rust. And one of the kernel devs flippantly calls it an "unmerged toy project" as if it's not kernel devs' fault that useful stuff and even small non-breaking improvements to existing systems are so incredibly hard to get merged. Not to mention that writing the entire m1 graphics driver in Rust ended up actually thoroughly documenting the DRM subsystem's API for the first time as a side effect because everything the Rust code interacts with pretty much gets strictly defined within Rust's type systems and lifetimes.

Ease of setup, difficult to break, and most of the things that the atomic setup makes otherwise difficult are trivially easy to workaround with Distrobox.
