You're right, they talked about adding Faceit AC, but they still need time. Once they actually implement Faceit and and thereby block Steam Deck/proton users. At that point Battlebit simply won't work anymore. (Hopefully Stea

Yes, the big AC's like EAC, BattleEye and a few others have optional support for proton and is simple to enable. But many other AC's like EA's Ricochet, Vanguard or Faceit AC don't support proton at all.

No, Steam comes with everything you need for games. Other launcher work great using Lutris. Apps like Lutris, Spotify Yuzu are on the Discover app store which uses flatpak. Flatpak is on many distros already installed or can be installed ma

Some services use usernames for login instead of an email address, so I keep the per service email address in another field. Or I use a different name & birthday for a service etc.

I bought a 1060 for 300€ in the mining boom in 2017 and later switched to an RX580 for 100€ (sold and bought). Now I'm thinking of buying a new GPU if the prices are down enough for me to justify it. The RX580 just isn't enough fo

They had to call it USB4 2.0 because the previous generation was USB4. How could they change their naming scheme to something like 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, that would confuse consumers!

That's because Intel uses the E/P cores differently ARM chips usually try to use E cores primarily for saving battery, so they only use P cores when performance is necessary. But Intel uses E cores to allow for higher multi core p

I don't think this works well with x86 chips. The performance of ARM in this low power budget is unmatched, especially looking at Apple's M1. And even they need fans to sustain the clock speeds.
