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.
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.
A plugin that makes it easier to manage your gamestream sessions from the SteamDeck. - FrogTheFrog/moondeck
I found MoonDeck while perusing the Decky plugin store and it's absolutely awesome. I've had Moonlight and Sunshine set up for a while because Steam streaming is very inconsistent between Deck and Linux, but I didn't use it often because it's a pain setting up launchers in Sunshine for each individual game. MoonDeck takes the hassle out of that completely, and I find myself streaming GPU-intensive games to my living room much more often nowadays.
I highly recommend it!
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".
Helldivers 2 works almost perfectly on Linux. I had to nest it in a gamescope session to fix some weird mouse issues, but that was it. I dual-boot Windows and I've never even launched it there.
Samesies! Happens almost anytime I'm drinking a cold drink.
Fun fact, Caesar salad is named after the guy who invented it, an Italian living in Mexico at the time.
I mean. I can't because I defederated from Threads. But neat, I guess.
I'm not sure where you heard that info about the keys, but it's not right at all. In fact, suyu went the ryujinx way and makes you provide all the keys and the firmware yourself, whereas yuzu only required the keys.
Suyu has done a lot to remove the problematic code and restructure their documentation. It would do well for people criticizing them to first go see what they've done. The suyu devs themselves said that the DMCA request didn't even come from Nintendo, it came from gitlab automatically because they forked a repo that was taken down.
This is dope, but I've been curious, what benefits are there to this? I know reproducibility can improve security by proving that the distro is delivering the packages they say they are, but is there anything else?
That's fair if you go into desktop mode a lot.
It's still usable, for sure. The Bazzite team back ported the WiFi and BT patches, so those function. But if you rely on reducing refresh rate to save battery like I do, that can be a big one.
The audio issue isn't too big of a deal, you just have to do a full reboot to go back into game mode. Just takes a few extra seconds.
But if you already have an LCD, I see the wisdom in waiting for the team to iron out OLED support.
Mainline is also missing some OLED patches around changing the panel refresh rate and audio cutting out when switching from desktop back to game mode, last I recall. Those are the issues holding me back from installing Bazzite on my OLED.
On one hand cool, but on the other, just use Bazzite.
I could go in-depth, but really, the best way I can describe my docker usage is as a simple and agnostic service manager. Let me explain.
Docker is a container system. A container is essentially an operating system installation in a box. It's not really a full installation, but it's close enough that understanding it like that is fine.
So what the service devs do is build a container (operating system image) with their service and all the required dependencies - and essentially nothing else (in order to keep the image as small as possible). A user can then use Docker to run this image on their system and have a running service in just a few terminal commands. It works the same across all distributions. So I can install whatever distro I need on the server for whatever purpose and not have to worry that it won't run my Docker services. This also means I can test services locally on my desktop without messing with my server environment. If it works on my local Docker, it will work on my server Docker.
There are a lot of other uses for it, like isolated development environments and testing applications using other Linux distro libraries, to name a couple, but again, I personally mostly just use it as a simple service manager.
tldr + eli5 - App devs said "works on my machine", so Docker lets them ship their machine.

Full specs in first comment.
So first of all, this is not a "Linux sucks" rant, I want to make that clear. I've been using Linux for over 10 years now. Started with Ubuntu, moved to Arch, now on openSUSE Tumbleweed on both my desktop and laptop. I'm a software dev by trade and sysadmin by hobby.
But why in the shit can Valve not get Remote Play on Linux in a useable state? Let me lay out my evening yesterday.
I took my car to the shop for an appointment that I knew was going to last 4+ hours, so I took my Steam Deck. I finished up Spider-Man 1 and moved on to Miles Morales. All of this was flawless (as was playing most of Spider-Man 1 on Tumbleweed, btw).
I got home and decided I wanted to remote play MM from my desktop to the Steam Deck in the living room. All wired, no wifi. The reason for this is that I want to use the power of my desktop to get high quality graphics, as opposed to the medium settings at 30 FPS I get with the Steam Deck. Note that I've done this with some games before, notably Persona 5 Royal, but it's been a year or so.
I launched MM for the first time on the desktop after selecting Proton-GE 8.0-6 (since that's what worked with SM1). Immediately, I was greeted with a warning that my drivers may be out of date. They aren't, but whatever, I clicked okay and the game launched fine. Cool, that's fine, I figured I'd just launch the game on desktop before I go back to the living room and connect with Remote Play. I messed around a bit to make sure it would play okay, set my graphics options, etc., it worked perfectly.
I went back to the Deck and clicked Remote Play. It attempted to connect, but threw me back to the library screen. Weird, but okay. I re-launched Steam on my desktop from terminal, so I could check the logs the next time. Tried to connect again, and it worked. Weird... but okay. Except after loading a save, I was again thrown back to my library screen, with no option to re-connect. I checked my desktop, and the entire game had crashed. Weird. So I rebooted my machine and Deck and tried again. Same thing.
Okay, fine, I figured, you know what, this is one of the things I have a Windows VM with PCIe passthrough for. So I booted the VM, booted MM, set graphics options, everything was great, cool. Went back to the Deck, and tried to connect. Again, it attempted for a second and then sent me right back to the library. That's wild. So I rebooted the VM and the Deck and tried again. Got connected and loaded the game, it didn't crash, alright, cool, we're in.
Next, I started running into issues where I was getting random inputs on menus. Specifically only menus. Weird, but as long as my save doesn't get deleted, no big deal, I guess. So I played for a few minutes, then noticed the frame rate was super choppy, even though the FPS overlay from the host was reporting 100+ FPS. The Deck overlay had errored out and was reporting 3000+ FPS, which obviously isn't right. This is actually a problem I'd run into with P5R before, so I knew the fix was to go into quick battery settings and toggle the per-game profile. This fixed it, but only for a few minutes at a time. I don't remember P5R having this issue so frequently, and it's also a much bigger nuisance in a game that's not turn-based.
I eventually gave up and just moved back to my desktop (Tumbleweed) to continue playing, where everything worked perfectly (minus the outdated driver warning). Needless to say, it was a very frustrating experience for me, and that's not a good thing. I couldn't imagine ever taking someone who's never used Linux and dumping them into that situation. I really hope Valve works on stuff like this.
Just discovered this band in the last few days, and they totally rule!
I've tried Jerboa, Liftoff, and Voyager, but I keep coming back to the standard Lemmy PWA with the Lemmy Universal Link Switcher user script.
I want to share links to posts and content, but I'd like for the link to use my instance's version of the content instead of the origin, for two reasons.
-
It helps my instance federate content.
-
I want to make content discovery and subscription as easy as possible for my friends in order to push Lemmy adoption. If I share something with them from a community they aren't subscribed to, but they want to subscribe, I don't want them to have to go back to my instance, find the community, and then subscribe. If I was able to share a link to my instance's version, they would've just been able to open the sidebar (or app equivalent) and hit join.
Thanks in advance!
God, I love this band so much.
I'm a huge metalhead, and Electric Callboy is so fucking fun. I love that they don't take themselves too seriously and just have a good time.
