Sure but most users are not interacting directly with the "Linux" part (and probably they don't have much interest in that anyway). IMHO Linux is mostly an implementation detail for the Steam Deck/OS. So sure we can put

Why? I don't see any signs of that happening. The only real major success stories for Linux in the consumer space Android and Chrome OS are effectively (of course not technically) proprietary(ish).

DDR4 to DDR5 is a pretty big jump, though. Up to 20-30% on Intel depending on what you're doing. Of course it might not be that significant on AMD which (IIRC) struggles with higher frequencies anyway and at least for gaming memory spe

Are that many chips actually affected (AFAIK it's only consumer desktop CPUs which is a niche market)? They also seemingly changed their warranty policy, so unless the melting CPU caused additional damage what would they be sued over?
