I have a friend that regularly games in VR in Linux. Admittedly, he's always faffing around with it to make it work. But he's also a bit of a chaotic person that runs Arch, so that could just be him and not a failing of the current level of support.

Time & effort. Everything that you do means something else doesn't get done. Whether that be gaming with friends or an item off your project/chore list.

We know that gaming centric distros are great for getting up & running, but it's still a time sink, and will require effort. Not everybody has a backup drive with their games and will have to re-download everything too. There's also a risk their favorite game isn't compatible with Linux

Windows 10 also works just fine. I still have it on 2 of my 4 computers (2/5 if you count my Deck), and haven't switched those over yet because I'm being lazy on one and the other is a perfect candidate for the SteamOS UX experience since it's a HTPC. However, I have done some looking around at other HTPC experiences and just haven't pulled the trigger. Which will be awesome, since Windows did away with their HTPC UX years ago.

I haven't run across a game that hasn't run on The Deck yet. I know it's capable of running quite a lot, but I got it to play indie games. It's been great and does what I want it to do phenomenally. Additionallh if I ever wanted to do something more demanding on it, I could.

Why do people like BlueSky/Twitter for sharing long-form information?

That is such a terrible way to convey that much information. The continuation of posting every half-scroll is so jarring and made it harder to follow.

Get out and vote.

Vote large, vote big, and vote in large enough numbers that we can start fixing this shit.

Former President Donald Trump has drawn the ire of another musical group for unauthorized use of their music. This time, it's the Foo Fighters.

Trump played the band's song "My Hero" when he welcomed former independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to the stage at a rally in Arizona on Friday[...]

[...]The spokesperson added that any royalties received as a result of the Trump campaign's use of the song will be donated to the campaign of Vice President Kamala Harris and Gov. Tim Walz.

 

Trump owes millions from two civil court cases, but his investment portfolio offers a staggering portrait of wealth.
