It might be enough of a barrier to prevent someone from swapping. It may also incentivize devs on Linux to get UWP working on Linux faster.

I’m hoping this isn’t a trend for the whole industry. That is Sony and Microsoft now. We had this fragmentation back in the mid 2010s where everyone thought they would better by being on their own platforms.
This is the biggest blow to Linux users since we can’t play games coming from the Xbox Store.


In the case of the 270K Plus, it’s now $339 to $349, with its smaller sibling now $219 to $229.
That’s a minimum increase of $40 and $20, respectively, and while it’s not a huge leap in the grand scheme of things, a 13%/10% rise isn’t merely pennies, either.
That is just a $10 increase each, no? Not ideal, but probably not worth writing an article over.
ChimeraOS is immutable and still alive. Bazzite with gaming mode ended up taking a lot of users from them(myself included).
For VanillaOS you could modify the image used just like Bazzite to get the packages and configuration that you want. I’m just not sure if there is enough of a desire to have something Debian based compared to what is offered by Bazzite.
Not necessarily gaming focused, but there is VanillaOS based on Debian.


It will, just not the people making the content. Executives at RockStar are excited tho.


Once a week on the systems I use the most. Whenever I turn the computers on for all other systems.


Is there a gaming company that is run worse than Ubisoft? I feel for the devs, but the company deserves to fail with the incompetence of its leadership.


Personally, the improved picture and response time are worth the risks to me. I have had an OLED monitor for 3 years now and haven’t experienced any burn in at all.


Do people just install the EA app directly in steam instead of using something like lutris/bottles?


Worse product and worse consumer practices (changing sockets every 2 generations) made it an easy choice to go with AMD.
They will continue to thrive despite these shortcomings. They will continue to push for AI after the bubble bursts because they have so much money tied up into it.


Fuck the AI companies buying up all of the RAM. Maybe its time to get a new GPU for my wife while they are still somewhat affordable.


That’s unfortunate. I played the BF6 beta on my Windows partition and had fun, but I won’t support a developer who actively blocks my platform of choice.


If you really don’t want a immutable distro, you could use Nobara. It’s based on Fedora and lets you install/remove packages as needed. It is optimized for gaming and has a Steam Deck version available.
That being said, I think Bazzite would be a better option. It is immutable like SteamOS, but it also bundles a bunch of other options like Flatpak, Homebrew, and Distrobox.


This could screw over some smaller board partners. They might not have the deals in place to secure the RAM chips they need.


So release GTA6 on PC at the same time as console? The ability to play the game a year or so earlier is part of the reason people still have a console.


100C is boiling. Would still kill humans because of overheating, possibly burns as well.


I think it will more likely happen if windows kicks games out of kernel space.
I think I’m out at that price. I’m thinking it will be closer to $1000, maybe a bit higher with hardware prices.
