  • Except the installer requires one specific repo mirror to be up, which can’t be customized, which has been down for weeks and the dev isn’t very interested in providing any fix or workaround so a lot of people literally can’t install it.

    It’s a bad suggestion, it’s a beta product not fit for end user consumption yet.













  • That’s exactly the why. Whenever a peronist presidency fails (which is… all of them for the most part), people will vote for the “whatever’s not peronism”. It’s akin to people in the US voting “not rep”. You can’t think of this as right/left, it’s “populists you know that never fix things, vs someone else that might be a nuclear bomb on the economy and everything else but current status quo is already a guaranteed death sentence albeit slower so might as well try something new”. That’s the pendulum swinging hard in the opposite direction, people don’t vote for the status quo when in desperation and crisis. This time it’s just more extreme than usual. It doesn’t help that there’s not a single actually good option that you’d say “yeah, I can live with this” available.




  • What you find acceptable is entirely based on your personal preference, how much you’ve already been exposed to higher specs, and how privileged you are in hardware, so some people are memeing and others are serious based on these. If console and mid-range pc gaming is all you know, the Steam Deck provides similar performance, and it’s a full on pc (with all the customization potential and non-gaming software availability you’d expect from a pc) in a handheld form factor, and a fairly console-like stock OS, if that’s appealing to you. But if you want 120-240 fps on latest AAA games, no, you won’t find the Steam Deck’s performance acceptable, but then also you wouldn’t be the target audience.
