I found this gitlab issue two days ago after I noticed that the video camera was always on in powertop. The workaround appeared to work for me and the reduction in power consumption was noticeable, but Cheese wasn't able to find a camera afterwards. Didn't test other software.
Now, if I could just find a way of reducing the screen consumption...
I'd like to remind everyone who's coming here for the men vs women fight that not so long ago only men worked and they were still able to afford everything for their family. Now both work and can't afford the same as men alone did then. We should be fighting such that either man or woman work alone and can still afford a home, not fight between us.
Men vs women, left vs right politics, black vs white, Christian vs Islamic,... we're too blind with these petty fights among ourselves to see that we are all alike and there's a different third party that is playing us like a fiddle.
Thanks to the API Proton, the Steam Deck supports dozens of games
Dozens, really!?

Oh God, the line breaks!
I was in the beta for the original World of Warcraft and restarted when it officially launched. This was 20 years ago, so memory is fuzzy, but somewhere along the way I was playing it in wine exclusively under Linux. Game updates were common and frequently broke wine, but I kid you not a patch was available within 24h. Yes, this forced me to compile my own wine, but it wasn't that difficult then. Together with "checkinstall" I could maintain a clean .deb package from the source code.
Some links I found in a quick search showing the challenges:
To be honest, keeping the game running in Linux sometimes felt as a fun side quest!
After that I was mostly able to play all my games in Linux, with some exceptions, obviously, that sometimes required me to install windows.
And the companies are controlled by venture capitalists, who are smart and distribute their investments. So they have interests in various companies, including the real estate companies.
The American dream
Warning: conspiracy theory incoming. Imagine you are an investor, one of those big guns that are on top of a few big companies. You have a lot of money, but because you're smart you don't invest it all in tech companies. Some of it goes to, let's say, real estate. Now imagine what would happen to that money if companies no longer needed offices, those huge and expensive offices... Also, you invest in an overseas company. There's lots of profit there because you pay cheap to your employees. Now those employees can start working directly to US companies for cheaper than in US, but still more than is paid in that country. Now if want people working for you, then you need to pay more than these remote workers receive. There goes your extra profit And the way this happened really shows that companies were really hoping to change the way of working after COVID, but someone didn't allow that.
We need an AI with all human knowledge, or various with different specializations. But those AIs must not be in the hands of companies.
Just in time!
