But once again, those will explain how, not why.

So the question becomes when, not if, a Linux phone reaches parity with AOSP-based phones.
The ad for the Steam Frame specifically says it's compatible with the whole Steam family, Deck, Controller, and Machine. I expect Steam Deck will only be a virtual screen, as well as it's standalone capabilities. If that's all it can do with the deck, that's enough for me. If it can do VR as well, even better. Either way, the frame also runs on SteamOS, so that will be Linux, and if they can't support streaming VR from the Machine they will be crucified.
Shit, these are all the things I'm looking for. Now I have something to do this weekend. Do you run SteamOS beta? I do, and it's been pretty good, but I'm not sure how the plug-ins feel about it.
Interesting, I'll have to look it up. Not having times isn't world-ending for me, but I do like having them. And achievements are nice, too.
Yes, but you can expect almost no useful updates from AOSP anymore, which means it's up to groups like those who develop GrapheneOS to keep up with what people expect while Android ostensibly keeps advancing, and they only support one hardware line.
AOSP has been neutered as much as Google has been able to. This was the reasonable next step.
The vast majority of the software updates they do appear to be open sourced, which makes it really hard to lock the market using anti-competitive measures. And making Linux more mainstream makes it better for everyone, not just gamers. And if Valve makes games that are optimized for their hardware spec, how is that any different than an XBox, Sony, or Nintendo game, except for the part where it will also work on other PCs without having to wait for a port?
It's reasonable to be cautious about any actor, especially one as powerful as Valve. But nothing I've seen, except for the loot box stuff, has been actually anti-competitive, to the point where my GOG and Epic games work well enough on Linux these days that even the games that warn me I'm on an unsupported platform work just fine.
Im currently playing a game from Epic on my Steam Deck, I've recently played games from GOG, and of course Steam. The biggest drawbacks with non-Steam games are having to go to the desktop to install them, and not having my time in big picture mode tracked for those games. So, not seamless, but exceptionally playable. I've even customized button maps for non-Steam games, and also had to do nothing at all to have them work well.
If Steam keeps extending like this, people will stop buying Windows for gaming. I will acknowledge that my gaming requirements aren't as extensive as some, and I've never installed Fortnite or Roblox for my own use.
Like most things, it's pretty simple from the far view. But there are a lot of details, much of which scientists are still trying to figure out.
The short version is, mitochondria, those powerhouses of the cell, have their own DNA, just like some bacteria. They do their own living, dividing, and dying, and have their own lineage. When a cell splits, some of the mitochondria go to each cell. So the mitochondrial DNA will be inherited from whoever donated the cell, or egg in this instance. So the lineage of the mitochondria would be related to the mitochondria of the egg donor and any other offspring she had, but the DNA in the nucleus, the mouse DNA, wouldn't be related to her.
...and that opens the door to mitochondrial diseases, all of which are pretty terrible.
Mitochondria have DNA. Mitochondria are passed from mother to child through the egg. The egg used in the scenario would have mitochondrial DNA from the mother mouse. All of what would typically be called mouse DNA came from the two male mice. So, technically DNA from the maternal line, but only mitochondrial DNA, not mouse DNA.
Edit: ah, autocorrect.
Hey, I used my Windows computer for LibreOffice, too! Which reminds me, I need to get that on my Deck.
