But you can but a Dell with Linux on it instead of windows.

I’m not sure how true this is, but I read somewhere that when Mac got above 5% market share, it suddenly got a lot more mainstream support.

I wonder if that means we’re are a year or two away from Linux as a mainstream option.

I’d love to have an arm based Linux laptop with software support for one of my critical work apps.

That’s really true. I agree 100% Valve is playing the long game and is really doing a great job bringing Linux to the average user.

It’s too bad you’re having trouble with it. I’ve had almost 0 trouble with the dock. There was one instance where I couldn’t get video out, but it was fixed after restarting it twice.

Bg3 runs pretty good on it. There are some slowdowns, but it doesn’t really matter in this kind of game.

I got obsessed with that game, but kind of burnt out after I finished act 2.

My biggest concern with graphene is that I don’t really trust that my apps will work on it.

I haven’t looked into it for years, but I do need to use apps like Microsoftone drive, WeChat, banks, etc.

Even if they work I’m concerned that they will see I’m on some modified OS and block my account.

I’m not surprised. The steamdeck is the only way that I game any longer. I think their approach to hardware upgrades not being frequent is a great idea. It lets devs have target hardware for the games to work on.

I couldn’t be happier with my steamdeck and will get the next one on day one.

I don’t think this is accurate. It says Apple is the leading phone where I live, but the large majority of people here are too poor for an iPhone. Plus you rarely see people with them outside the rich areas of the city.

This is a really fun point and click adventure game.

The same guy made another game called Kathy Rain which was recently remastered. Both games are really good and you play the role of a detective trying to solve some crime.

I was not super into point and click adventure games until I tried this one.

Is that really true? I guess I’m not up to date enough, but I think most modern games make their way to the modern seas.

But what if they run out of digital copies?

A while back people had a problem with metadata or something. I used to have my own server, so I wasn’t really worried about it.

But it’s been like 3 years since I’ve used it or looked into it.

Kinda curious what’s changed at this point.
