IIRC, Samsung recently announced they’re moving to A/B partitioning as well.
The Twitter thread says that the website with the linked keys is a fake imposter site. Not sure how true that is, but if so, that’s fucked.
Honestly, it’s probably not worth the hassle to try to install system apps elsewhere. Steam and Lutris, on the other hand, can put games on any mounted drive. Install them as normal, and then in Steam, set up a steam library in /Apps
. In Lutris, you should have the option to choose where each game is installed each time you install one.
Correct. Unfortunately, it’s something that each desktop environment or window manager has to implement themselves. But all the button is doing is moving some config files around, so you can probably do some digging to figure out what it’s copying to where.
This is the system settings application for the KDE desktop environment.
Literally yes. And you don’t even need to know the exact pixel resolution of the TV.
Edit: Here are the problems with you “Wayland isn’t good enough” people.
First, you don’t use Wayland, so you don’t even know if it’s fixed whatever weird issue you encountered with it before or if it supports a niche use case, for example.
Second, Wayland won’t get good enough for you until you start using it and reporting bugs. You think X11 was a bed of roses when it first started? Or do you think they bumped the version number 11 times for fun?
Not sure if you’re a troll, but if you’re serious, nothing I say is going to change your mind, so I won’t bother.
If you’re using Wayland, you can go to Settings -> Colors & Themes -> Login Screen (SDDM) and click “Apply Plasma Settings…”
If you’re using X11, it looks like you’ll have to resort to hacky scripts, unfortunately.

Same! Senior dev here with both dyscalculia and dysgraphia. Numbers literally transpose for me, for example when I’m filling out a restaurant receipt and calculating tip+total. It’s wild.
I’m curious, my playthroughs of both the original and the remake were so long ago - but does D-pad movement buy the player anything? I agree it’s rather silly that it’s not an option, but I don’t remember being hampered by the control scheme in any way.
I believe you can thank Taylor Hawkins for that. I know he was her tour drummer, but I’m pretty sure he wrote drum parts during his time with her, as well.
Oh nice! I just use Lutris, but options are always good.
So that file can go anywhere you want, but ~/bin
is a good spot (or ~/.bin
if you like a tidy home folder). You can name it whatever you want, but I’d personally name it steam.sh
. And then in the Buddy settings, use that file as your new Steam binary.
What issues are you having? I may be able to help.
There’s a host app that runs on the host machine alongside Sunshine that reads your Steam library, and the Deck plugin adds an icon on each game’s banner on your Deck. When you click the icon, the plugin communicates with the host app and then automatically starts a Moonlight/Sunshine session that then starts up the game you were on. You only have to add one “app” to Sunshine and set up the MoonDeckBuddy app on the host, and then you have streaming for your entire library available.
I disagree, it’s a statement of fact. There’s nothing inherently wrong with that fact that you’re lazy about fiddling with computers. I’m lazy about certain things in my own life.
But it’s pointless trying to convert lazy people to Linux when it requires an effort level above 0 and they don’t want to put in anymore than that.
Cool, you’re lazy, gotcha.
No, I literally had to add one change to the game launch properties one time. It took me probably 3 minutes of googling and following instructions. I wouldn’t call that “a bunch of fucking shit”.
Cool, me too.
Thus, Docker was born.
