The last patch with new content. Bugfixes will still follow.

Nice!

I don’t like App Image because I have to manage everything myself or use a helper that may or may not be able to manage everything about all App Images.

But sometimes the dev supplied package is the only way to get an up to date package.

People will buy the Switch 2 and its games despite the high price because of the exclusive Nintendo games you can only play on that console.

I think they want the Dualsense specific features to work. Not just the joysticks and the buttons. Dualsense stuff is not supported by xboxdrv.

You’re probably not talking about landlines. Some routers can act as voip servers which you can connect to with clients like Twinkle. I use that with my Fritz!box.

Or almost every other language besides English.

The best resource for multiplayer games is https://areweanticheatyet.com/. Every game with nonworking anti cheat will be impossible to get working.

I’m not sure about the details but as far as I know luks has a long internal key that is used to encrypt the whole drive. This master key is encrypted with your passphrase and that encrypted key is stored on the drive.

When you add a file as a key the master key is encrypted using the binary contents of that file and stored as well. The contents of the file are basically an additional pass phrase.

So when it tries to decrypt the drive at boot it first tries to use the key file you give it. When that fails it asks for the pass phrase.

When you made the file EncryptedSD.txt it did not contain the same binary data as the pass phrase you created. Probably due to an additional newline or two. To get around that you add the whole file as it is as a valid decryption key.

Often people might create an extra long key on an extra USB stick. Or if you want to decrypt the drive automatically with the option of setting up a pass phrase later you can initially create the volume only with a key file stored on the boot drive or so.

You have to add the file as a key file. Just adding the password to the file isn’t enough.

cryptsetup luksAddKey /home/user/EncryptedSD.txt /dev/sda

Betteridge wins again.

Handhelds are a niche in PC gaming. Especially in the whole gaming market.

Even without BTRFS it is possible to just delete every folder on root except for /home. Haven’t encountered any distros that couldn’t handle it.

I’d say stick to what you know. So one of the Debian or Ubuntu based distros. Like Ubuntu, Mint or Pop OS.

Stay away from Valve’s Debian based SteamOS. That is horribly outdated and has nothing to do with what people nowadays mean when they say “SteamOS”. I’m always surprised to learn that it’s still available.

In the end it doesn’t really matter which distro you choose. All of them should have no problems with running WoW.

Can you see with top or ps what program is eating up all the RAM? Probably some bug you may report.

Compare panel 3 with panel 4.

Just the occasional bug report. I don’t have more to spare. Most I have ever done was to give code for a semi-big new feature back. I had developed it for work and was glad that I got permission to publish the code. Especially when someone fixed a bug in it.

I also contributed to PHP. That’s the biggest project with my contribution. I also tried to make something for OpenSUSE’s zypper but thanks to Long COVID lack the energy and brain power.

I don’t get it.

Or it’s the start to a new line.

The Steam Deck literally is a PC. If for some inane reason you can’t get it to do what you want you can install Windows on it.

I think the only reason emulation is “worse” on it than on PC can be that a desktop PC has more power. Almost all emulators in general usage are open source and have Linux versions.

There are also no problems with running pirated Windows games. By now the only games that are problematic on Linux are multiplayer games with kernel level anti cheat that hasn’t been configured to work on Linux.

The Steam Deck is better than the Switch in almost every aspect. It just doesn’t come with detachable controllers. That’s it.

So if you want a portable console with detachable controllers buy a Switch. Otherwise there is no reason not to get a Deck.
