While it's legal status might be dubious, from the fiction quality perspective it's no different from non-fanfiction. Like, there's a ton of crappy fan and non-fan fiction alike, and then there's genre-carving stuff like HPMOR that basically gives the original Harry Potter books a purpose and excuse to exist.

I see you're holding to the Australian view on cryptography.

Ah, so, pure unadulterated bullshit.

You're right. I forgot not all Ayas are cute pocketable OLED 5.5-inchers.

No, I just daily-drive a OneNetbook 4. Steam Deck is wider than that. Or a GPD Win Max. Or anything reasonably-sized, really.

You did all you could to prevent that from happening.

Same. I'll never believe in GP AI until I see a proof that a matching GP NI exists.

Speaking of bigger numbers: Are there even any rivals larger than Steam Deck? The damn thing is wider than my laptop.

I think the point of the original Deck and the recent update are that they have too crappy of a screen to play non-demanding games, too weak hardware to play demanding games and too heavy of a body if what you do is just streaming from a PC.

"What should I attempt before deciding I need to roll my own?"

Definitely don't. If there isn't a FLOSS Linux client for it, just don't use it.

Oh, the shitshowrunners will sure claim it's valid. What I meant to say is that it's a scam. If an election is a way to find out whom does the electorate want to elect, then this is not an election, it's a voting process. A voting process without a way to distinguish "yes, I've researched them all and cared to show up to tell you I want none of them" from invalid ballots, people not showing up etc etc is actively swiping the actual people's stances under the carpet.
