Yeah, but right now, I just have that set for Desktop Mode. Hoping a browser will have its own setting, so I don't have to add a PIN for regular usage.

I wonder if there will be PIN support. Security seems to be less considered on headsets, but I definitely don't want anything in unlocked SteamOS Game Mode to have access to my Google/Chrome credentials (which are also what logs y

I would suspect flashing your firmware to the globally standard one would become commonplace if printers sold in NY came with a nerfed version. On principle, yes, but also for maintenance. The nerfed firmware that's only required in a

I had the same thought - not just about raids, but about raiding a satellite office. This sounds like theater begging for headlines like this one.

As someone from Tahoe, it makes me sad that the release with the worst reputation is named after my home region.

I have been. Hoping it cuts out some of the manual work and prevents me from accidentally writing a PR against an obsolete nixpkgs. The only changes I've made are ones I'd want to be upstreamed. So from the point of view of my

I started doing it this way (auto-rebase) when I started sharing one home-manager config across different devices. This lets me do `nix flake update` on my home-manager config to have all my in-flight patches + the canonical nixpkgs from an

I've only been doing this for a few weeks, so too early to tell if it's a good setup, but I added a GitHub Action that rebases my personal fork atop nixpkgs-weekly. I'm hoping that will help keep me from having a stale-by-de

That link is hard to follow. Does that effectively replace the .exe parts of a Proton game with an equivalent Linux engine, while letting Steam et. al. manage the artwork/levels/etc?

If native software was routinely available, launchers might not feel necessary. But I sure as hell don't want to invest howevermany weekend days figuring out how to make games from other platforms as easy to play as Steam games on Stea

Semantics, but yes. The problem isn't the open source (in fact, that's better). The problem is downloading random shit from the internet, and the biased assumption that open-source == trustworthy.

More open source, browser-accessible tools is a good thing. That said, aren't Prusa/Orca/etc. all already open-source (and part of the same lineage)?

Add the gaming distros to the list too. People generally want something that works, without tinkering - particularly on an entertainement device. I'll happily let Valve etc. pick the kernel and driver versions, set up the compositors,

I feel this way about open source generally. Lots of cool stuff that I happily use, but the bar to installing something that gets to see my password (OS, terminal, input handler, etc) is very high. Not a popular take, but I'd rather ru

It's all about communication. > To be silent in the face of oppression isn't neutrality. It's implicitly siding with the oppressor. That's the kind of "I took an edgy course in college" shit that makes peopl

Website's a bit weird. The app icons highlight when you hover over them, but don't seem to do anything. They've got a grab-bag of unrelated Linux etc. org icons - Nix, Debian, postmarketOS, Node, Kubernetes… You could argue
