I fully believe in our right to repair, ewaste reduction, and bringing a second life to still good hardware that is not up for it’s originally intended purpose. This is a sick console like experience you can strap to the back of a tv, throw in your back to take on a trip, or leave stuffed in your vehicle to game in the backseat. Sucks that it cant do 4k, but I’ve used mine on large screens, and it does quite well for a lot of games, maybe not AAA, but the cartoony multplayer games I play with my kids do quite well.

This man is responsible for making gaming on linux what it is today. Such a heartfelt story to hear that reviving his dad’s machine was at the core of what drove him to do what he has done for the wider gaming on linux community. Update on your schedule, remove all the tracking and bloatware, this is what drove him to start using linux before making it accessible for his Dad.

But really do update, this is not your 2002 PHP box, things need updated and regular updates help the process.

Gyroscope better than a mouse?? Nerd nest really sells how having two gyros in the way they have done for noise cancelling changes the game on it, and makes it a contender to replace a mouse.

It really makes me want to try it. I love how repairable this controller looks. I’ve got to imagine that the fact that it comes as a kit, and all the parts are available that this hits S tier repairability. My current controller of choice is a PS5 and I’ve had stick issues I wish I could fix.

No analog triggers, I’m out. Maybe they will make it an option in the future idk. I don’t play shooters where I need a hair trigger, this won’t work on session or driving games.

micro usb, seriously, that kinda kills it for me too.

Very interesting way to catalog games, I need to make a catalog of mine, I’ll probably start adding some blog entries for games I’m in and have completed. Wonder if there is a way to hook into steam with python to get achievements and progress live.

Damn Glorious Eggrolls is still making gaming on linux better. Of course its containerization that drives everything on linux these days. This is a pretty badass talk. Umu is already running in steam and bazzite. Bazzite gamemode uses this to get a gamescope session running.

The BethDeck is a sick looking DIY steam deck competitor built on top of the framework 13" mainboard. No soldering needed, lt with all off the shelf parts. Controllers appear to be an off the shelf controller with the shell removed and plugged into a usb hub.
