Idk, it was some image I found on Unix socks
Fun fact: The ruble is worth only slightly more then shitcoin, I predict that soon it will overtake the ruble
People keep saying that but I don't beleive that to be the case. When SteamOS releases a generic ISO a very small (and yes by percentage it will be tiny) portion of tech enthusiasts (it won't be average gamers, they'll either get a Steam Deck or use Windows) will install it only to find subpar support. After that a large portion if not most will either reinstall Windows or dual boot (while leaving their SteamOS partition untouched). We see this when trying to run the Steam GamepadUI on other handhelds, you need to use button combinations while on Steam Deck its one button and you get less functionality (TDP, fan curve, etc). Finally let's not forget the elephant in the room, handheld manufacturers will not ship SteamOS by default or even as an option. Maybe a few handhelds will advertise SteamOS support (which they will not provide official support for and require that you install it yourself) but I doubt any handhelds will ship SteamOS. Windows allows OEMs to easily ship bloat in exchange for money, meanwhile OEMs make nothing from SteamOS.
Gaymers are the most oppressed group, literally 1984
Its the default choice on one singular handheld device, you can't even unofficially get SteamOS in other handhelds (only other Linux gaming distros). We are still several months if not years away from a generic SteamOS ISO release and even that won't gurentee any other handhelds will use SteamOS. In addition most PCs don't ship with Linux, you need to actively search for Linux PCs.
I feel like .ml and .world are in a competition on who can fling the most shit at eachother.
I just wish people could just understand that what works for them doesn't work for everyone. I use Alpine Linux not because its the best distro but because I like it. I use Sway not because its the most feature complete UI or even the most lightweight but because I like i3 style wms and Wayland. I use a Thinkpad T440p not because its the most powerful laptop or has the best build quality but because I personally enjoy it.
I guess my point is that I love the software and hardware that I use but I wouldnt reccomend it to anyone. In my eyes thats not contradictory, what's good for me is great for me because I personalized it to my needs.
Controversial opinion, if you enjoy Windows and want your software to work like Windows just use Windows (shocking)
I would argue that fundamentally Linux will never be the default OS, not only that but it will never gain over 10% usage and it'll never be ready for mass adoption. People want to be treated like complete and total idiots, people don't want privacy, people don't want freedom, people don't want to try new things, people don't to do anything themselves, and finally people want the polish of corporate software. Not only that but I would argue Linux devs shouldn't waste time or resources attempting to convince Windows users to switch. Linux devs should double down, make software thats nothing like Windows, make UI thats completely different, go full steam ahead on tiling, and completely abandon the concept of a "user friendly distro" (I personally use Alpine Linux).
Non concave? Square trackpads? Clear preference to analog sticks? This seems like a worse Xbox controller on the surface. Unless the ergonomics are somehow amazing I would be hesitant to buy it (and I own an original steam controller).
Agreed, my storage space and time is worth more than their slop
Thats a lot of words just to say "I'm a dumbass"
Examples of Fascism:
- Funding "Israel"s genocidal "war"
- Funding dictators (ex: Saudi Arabia, Jordan, etc)
- Tax breaks for the wealthy in exchange for favors
- Compromising on the civil liberties of minorities
- Allowing states to establish Fascism
- Normalizing Fascist positions (ex: border, security, defense, etc)
- Actively fighting actural Leftists because they make the capitalist class feel uncomfortable
Republicans: Pull yourself up by the bootstraps, kill all social programs, raise taxes on the 99%, kill public infrastructure, and lastly go fuck yourself (Republican voter base proceeds to cheer)
Democrats: Uhhhhh.... Tax cuts for small buisnesses anyone? Oh wait the republicans are calling us communist for doing that. Well if we just compromise with them and allow sooome fascism we'll be able to get some of our agenda across as well. (Leftists proceed to boo the Dems for being Fascism Lite™)
Of course, they make your personal information completely open to hackers and advertisers. They also make you open your wallet to buy a Windows 11 compatible computer.
Regarding post 2024 America
To all Comrades here:
Donald J Trump is now officially the 47th president of the United States of America, once again the white house is under the thumb of a tyrant. Its incredibly easy to give up in this wave of fascism and despair, I'm here to tell you don't. We may have lost this battle but the class struggle will never end so long as the working peoples of the world dream for a better tomorrow. We can organize, we can protest, we can fight back, and in the end we will win. Find a local resistance group, if there are none make one, create support networks, and utilize the things we have that they never will (compassion, community, and true unity despite us not all agreeing on everything). I believe in all of you and wish you all safety in the coming future.

Happy spooky month
Despite making massive mistakes and not being able to explain myself (autism sucks sometimes) I have not forgotten about this community. I hoped that by stepping down it would being this community back, looking in retrospect I was extremely mistaken and for that I apologize. In the near future I am willing to retake my spot as the head moderator (with community approval).
To clarify: I am requesting community feedback from anyone who wants to bring back this community
New Moderators needed
I have decided that new moderator (including a new head moderator) are needed for the future of this community. I will step back into the position of moderator that I had previously held. If enough people demand I will consider stepping down completely. I apologize for any harm that I have caused to this community.
Problem updating community icon
Its gives this error:
{"data":{"msg":"Required command ffprobe not found, make sure it exists in pict-rs' $PATH","files":null},"state":"success"}
It appears every time I upload an image
Update
I have chosen to abandon all the major changes I had planned. This post will be used for feedback and suggestions. Since I'm the only mod I need community feedback.
