I’m one of those weirdos that never thought the screen looked bad to begin with. I’m interested in the upgrade of course, but I can give it another year. The software upgrades alone make it feel like I’m running a new Steam Deck compared to when I got it 1.5 years ago.

I just have no idea what life was like in the before time. All these poor souls

I learned about that in a Trevor Moore song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TxjrHPHypA

Internet brain worms

It’s the I-4 eyesore… of all things

How anyone looks at this greasy used car salesman, and thinks his dumb Libertarian ideas and shrill whiny vibes are going to solve all their problems…

They’ll take it as far as the pollster wants ask. It’s not really about what they believe or say, it’s about unwavering support and owning the libs. They know they’ll never be tested where they have to choose, so it’s just a big game to them.

20-year boondoggle, you know… The easy route…

I think you’re right about the silent majority. This whole amplifying rage over thing is wild to see in real time. It’s scary how many people have Internet brain rot, check these ratios on most any push back to the rabid behaviour.

Things really move fast in AI, huh

It was back working until a few days ago. I have faith they’ll figure out a solution

Interesting. I wonder if the difference is you’re mounted with the newer NTFS3 driver, where I’ve stuck with the NTFS-3 fuse one for stability.

The NTFS warning is a little disingenuous. I wouldn’t recommend people go with it if they’re choosing Linux only obviously, but I’m going to say with years of personal testing about 99.9% of things work just fine using an NTFS drive. I think it’s been years since I had any kind of issue with game data that I attributed (and maybe falsely) at the time to the NTFS filesystem.

In steam you’ll need to symlink your compatdata folder to a linux filesystem, but that’s about it.

In my experience using something like

export KWIN_X11_NO_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=1

export KWIN_X11_REFRESH_RATE=144000

export KWIN_X11_FORCE_SOFTWARE_VSYNC=1

would basically work in allowing the 60hz lock released from the 144hz main display, but it would still introduce tearing, especially on the secondary 60hz display.

With Wayland it’s an out of the box, tear free experience which is what I’m referring to.

I’m all caught up, and that’s my conclusion. This is a business with a lot of moving parts. What is the implication in all this? That Linus is incompetent, harmful, malicious, greedy? It’s all dumb drama, and I’m pretty disappointed in a lot of people all around in the way it was handled.

He’s on the offense, it’s a strategy. What’s his endgame, what are his motives? We’re hearing a lot of one side of the story. I’m naturally suspicious, and need way more information than everyone seems happy to run with.

See, this is all just an overly emotional / reactionary read to me. Right now everyone is in a echo chamber, it’s really odd from the outside looking in with everyone getting so worked up like this is the ulitmate sin. Steve is whipping everyone up into a hyperactive state for what endgame? I’m interested in what happens ultimately, but I’d be surprised if LTT does anything but continue to grow, and get better.
