I’m not here to answer your question about “other sensitive communities” but to comment on your case of vampire survivors.

I’ve never played the game, never intented to but i’ve heard enough about it and have seen enough of it.

The way you describe your opinion here lets me assume how you’ve written your post over on that community. You simply say "People do not want games to feel like it’s a job […] and while that may be your opinion it’s 1) not everyones opinion and 2) just because the game feels like a job FOR YOU, doesn’t mean that it feels like that for everyone.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with making a grindy “addictive” game loop if there are not MTX behind it to “harvest” that addiction.

So i think that’s the reason your post got deleted… not because they are “sensitive” but because you think you know better than people and that your opinion is “the truth”

Obsidian with tasks and kanban Plugin. Open them side by side

Mostly some news sites I really don’t want to support but want to see one article of

This is amazing!!

Wrong.

This is KDE Plasma, look at the bottom left corner.

Are you aware that you simply don’t have to use anything from that instance?

That’s the beauty of Lemmy, nothing here is centralized. Simply block that instance and don’t interact with anything from them.

If you miss some of their communities you can create your own equivalents and try to encourage people to join yours instead of theirs.

It’s always the same, some says something factually wrong, gets corrected, the votes weigh in and then the argument of “you just try to dunk on my for fake internet points” come up… sigh

Alright, let’s go through it point by point.

1. You didn’t list a single reason why you CAN’T hook up any PC with Linux and create a “console”. You just listed a bunch of feature that are available to every single linux distro and a bunch of feature that are in fact exclusive to the steamdeck, but are NOT critical to achieve a console-like gaming system. 1.1 “Unique first-party processor” - Yup, thats steamdeck exclusive afaik, but it’s only special feature is the balance between TDP and performance. None of the firmware / software features rely on that specific CPU. I can “proof” that because as i said, my Minisforum can go into the exact same sleep / resume state as the steamdeck. But “oh here we go again!” you might say, i just listed the same one specific machine again. Yup i did, but my other machines do exactly the same. My NVidia powered PC and my personal gaming rig. Yes they all have AMD CPUs, i have no idea how good Intel goes with all this but honestly i don’t care. I doesn’t disprove my point in any way.

2. Touch pads - Yup exclusive to the steamdeck. Not at all critical to achieve a console-like gaming system.

3. Steam Input configuration - Not exclusive to the deck, available for every single machine that can install steam.

4. Gamescope - Not exclusive to the deck, available for every single distro that runs wayland.

5. Sleep / resume function - Not exclusive to the steamdeck. All my PCs achieve the same result as the deck.

6. Direct launch into Big Picture Mode - Lmao also not exclusive (how do you even think that?! xD).

7. Hardware thats guaranteed to work with Linux / Steam. Nowadays, it’s really fucking hardware to find mainstream gaming hardware that is NOT supported by Linux. Heck even NVidia works reliable with wayland with the newest 555 driver. How do i now? Oh because of my frigging 3070 that’s running in one of my gaming systems.

So, i just elaborated. Disprove me with real forum entries / wiki entries that describe that something that i wrote is not correct. Go ahead, i wait… but i won’t answer anymore.

interesting… can you please go ahead and tell this to my Minisforum PC i hooked up to my TV and let it boot into big picture and resume from sleep etc. just like its a console?

Because from what you told me it shouldnt work… but it does… and somebody needs to tell it and i can’t because i didnt spend so much time with it… you know i just installed bazzite and called it a day… so i don’t really have a big connection to it :/

But in all seriousness, you’re completly wrong here. The chip used in the Steamdeck sure is special and does a lot of heavy lifting. But everything that makes out the steamdeck is definetely not exclusive to its hardware. You 100% can just hook up any PC, be it some minisforum mini pc, a laptop or a off the shelf gaming PC, install literally any linux on it and within a few hours of installing and configuring stuff - you can make your own “steamdeck”. It works. Reliable, hasslefree.

I assume you just don’t have any real-world experience with setting something like this up. Go ahead and try it, it’s not hard and you will see that you just don’t need a steamdeck.

It’s absolutely nothing special to produce a console-like gaming experience with linux these days.

You really shouldn’t believe to be correct if everyone else has the real-world experience you try to tell others can’t exist

Elaborate

What about this isn’t correct?

Offgrid Internet… Hmmmm

If that’s the case, sad

Would’ve liked to chime in but I will not create a new account only for this 😅

Nah i am German, so imho I have every right to be majorly pissed off by religion being so invasive that they even enforce taxes unless you take your time and fucking pay money to officially leave the church so you don’t have to pay those cults any money anymore

Organized religion has no respect for anyone, organized religion is the single most horrible thing that ever happened to humanity and organized religion is solely responsible for billions of deaths throughout history, way too many fucking wars and so much blocking of innovation.

Religion doesnt respect women, lgbtq, mentally disabled, people who don’t want to be indoctrined to follow a cult member and, of course, members of other religions.

But sure, go ahead and continue that stupid categorized thinking of “I bet you’re american” buddy

If Religion would start respecting people maybe we can spare a bit of respect for them

I like to imagine a world where beeper would’ve been aquired by Proton instead… a man can dream

So this is the kind of stuff i see when sorting by All + New

Yo this looks awesome!

I got the self-hosted docker container running within 2 minutes and started importing all my Obsidian Markdown Documents. The automatic Collections based on tags is awesome

hm interesting. I also use yay but i don’t get a yay folder in my .cache dir after the failed installation

Yup it immediately picked up my Nvidia GPU and let me handle it’s temp curves and case - fans based on it like a charm.

Just uninstalled fancontrol-gui and gotta keep this one^^

I’m on a sff case and the GPU is often times the most hot thing in this so i need to control my case fans based on the Nvidia temp instead of CPU temp or something else.

Nice find, i install it right now and compare it to fancontrol-gui

fancontrol-gui is nice and all… but it’s annoying sometimes and it doesn’t automatically recognize my NVidia GPU.
