Is it a good idea to buy a Steam Deck solely to play pirated games? Or should I get a windows-based handheld instead?
Use the Heroic Launcher. It uses the same proton as steam but doesn't launch through steam.

Oh, I thought these headlines were from the past and this was roasting Pocketpair for saying that

Is Plex really Self Hosting?
But you're not locked into Plex. You have your files already on your hardware and you have the ability to reuse those files for any other service.

Booklore is officially dead
Yep, I saw the writing on the wall and tagged my 1.13.2 image locally. It's still running fine on my machine and I added his animated donate button to my filter lists on ublock. I'm going to have to backup this image and keep using it until it breaks. Hopefully by then someone has a fork.

Nah this is more systemd bloat and certainly invites criticism. Other inits aren't even commenting, let alone complying.

Instead of a keyboard it should be the loudest most old fashioned typewriter possible, but still connected to AR glasses

RuneScape's monthly membership now costs as much as a World of Warcraft subscription as Jagex announces its second price hike in less than 2 years
Reply in thread
Still the second price hike and all of that occurred right after the first price hike. Players assumed the first hike was the trade-off to get rid of MTX since that was already the discussion at the time.
RuneScape is definitely fun though, I'm not disputing that.

Thanks, I was just about to ask for rss, but it looks like since there are a lot of crossposts there are a bunch of duplicates in the rss feed. Is it possible to narrow it down to just posts to c/steam deck?

Your system could honestly be fatter without systemd if you try to replicate everything it does with external applications.
Maybe so, but systemd's bloated feature creep still leads to security vulnerabilities. Another systemd root access exploit was just discovered a couple of days ago.

That is a fair point, actually. If there were a theoretical systemd-free Ubuntu it may just tell something else like tmpreaper to clean on the same schedule and create the same vulnerability.

Which games? Protondb is a great resource to see what games work on Linux. But basically all you need to do is add a game to either Steam or Heroic Launcher and then set the game to launch with Proton. That site will tell you if you'll need a specific version of Proton for a game.
