Quoting: sarmadLet's be honest, game of the year should've been Astro Bot.
In my opinion black myth wukong was just slightly better than astro bot. :)

Steam Controller 2 is apparently a thing and being 'tooled for a mass production' plus a new VR controller

Quoting: MalI'm sure the second iteration will be awesome like the first one. I'm more skeptical that the game devs will actually exploit its functionalities when console market is still bound to abxy.
Wont be for long if valve actually does well here. :)

Linux kernel 6.12 is out now with real-time capabilities, more gaming handheld support
18 Nov 2024 at 6:10 pm UTC

Quoting: HobbesHKThe big one for me is support for the latest Realtek network drivers. I just got a new PC and absolutely splurged on it. I'm running a swanky new Ryzen 7 9800X3D on a X870E motherboard with 32Gb DDR5 RAM, a 7800XT graphics card, but no Linux distro has network working on install! A quick Google showed me that kernel drivers were coming in 6.12.

So I had to revert back to Windows 10. Which... is REALLY not where I want to be with this fancy machine. So hoping Bazzite will jump to Linux 6.12 very soon, since I'm keen to give that distro a try!
Bazzite updates with fedora so it's fedora that bazzite has to wait on. :(

NonSteamLaunchers gets booted from Steam Deck plugin store Decky Loader

Quoting: ElectricKaibutsuWhat a strange amount of drama!

I am a NonSteamLaunchers user and so already have a little bias in favor of the project. I heard it got blocked from Bazzite and thought that was weird and arbitrary. I'm also a Decky user and I hear Decky has some weird drama going on with the paid version of Junk Store on Steam (honestly I don't know the relationship between those two projects so can't comment). And now Decky blocks NonSteamLaunchers? What is even going on in this community?
Bazzite should not be blocking any decky addons/plugins as far as i have been told.
They have an automod message on their Subreddit about NSL, basically because it's one wine prefix they don't recommend its use either on Decky or standalone. They also requested that Bazzite be removed from the NSL wiki, but that turned a bit ugly
interesting.
