Sometimes when I go into Desktop Mode, X11 doesn't have any screens. The deck just sits there with a black screen, until I ssh in and kill plasma

It is rare to see a game get this wrong, the last one I saw was a Borderlands. If you look at a game's Steamdb cloud listing, they list Windows's save location, and then Mac/Linux saves are expressed as a rewrite rule.

Cloud saves on PS are handled quite simply - if you didn't pay for your very own PS Plus then go fuck yourself. I have lost dozens of Aloy hours on my brother's PS4.

I think "endurance" cards are where you get something reasonably non-self-destructive, for a modest premium.

Ghidra is properly Java, so better luck looking there.

I'm somewhere between Kitty and Ptyxis.

The existing buttons are made out of a plastic that wears well when rubbing against their contact-points in the case. The plastics are chosen to be compatible, self-lubricating and "not spalling or rubbing eachother to death".

I doubt that these metalized buttons have been tested for their long-term wear characteristics.

The PineTab doesn't even have a wifi/bt radio that's supported by its own OS. When you're an OEM and you're choosing what chips you're putting in a design, I think you should stick to chips that are usable. Chips where the manufacturer has written specs and maybe even a driver that transforms "a piece of glass with a lead frame" into something with a purpose.

Anyway, that's just how I feel.

Go to Desktop Mode, run Plasma Discover, get the Heroic flatpak, run Heroic, log into GoG there, install games.

Heroic is pretty damn good at doing the rest. It'll install the Linux or Windows version of your games, it'll add them to Steam, it'll run them. Heroic will even give Steam some coverart for your games. (Many are missing the logo, tho. DeckyLoader +SteamGridDB plugin fixes that.)

Flatseal is the tool.

(Another benefit to using the flatpak version of Steam is that Steam leaks rather substantial chunks of /dev/shm memory. The flatpak automatically cleans that up. God knows why Valve hasn't fixed this yet.)

The simplest way to opt out is to "install any other OS instead".
