Quoting: SolarwingValve, give us a Steam Deck 2 which also would be Thor's new legendary hammer against evil M$ empire!! Steam deck 2 and Thunder!!! For Odin!!! for Asgard!!! :happy:if Valve make this wish come true for us, we the noble Linux warriors will heed the call and buy a golden Steam deck 2 - even it would mean a environmental bankruptcy for us!!!:happy:So let us hope for the best.:smile:

Valve has said that Steam Deck 2 won't be a thing until they can offer a significant hardware upgrade. They're not interested in going the smartphone route with yearly minor upgrades.

Quoting: Mountain Man"...excellent Star Wars stuff that's ongoing."

I hope that's sarcasm, because the Star Wars franchise has been in the toilet ever since George Lucas made the mistake of selling to Disney.

No, not sarcasm. What's your problem with it?

I'm not going to get in a long, involved discussion about it, but "boring, woke trash" is probably the best description of Disney Star Wars. To be fair, modern Star Trek isn't much better.

I want a Steam Controller 2 that has the same control layout as the Steam Deck.

Quoting: ElectricPrism...I mean. Star Trek has been dead to me for a while now.. especially after the "ActionMan" movies painted Picard as a psychopathic killer instead of a wise diplomat sage....

Star Trek has been action schlock for a while now.

I guess AI/Neural Networks are our only hope or restoring it to its pristine original form about showing moral conundrums and navigating ethically complex situations objectively.

I've finally given up on it after Strange New Worlds had a dancing Klingon boy band - that episode was actually embarrassing. I thought the first series of Discovery was good but it's been going rapidly downhill since. No comparison with the excellent Star Wars stuff that's ongoing.

I'm thinking it's about time to jump ship to AMD.

At this rate, Linux will beat Windows in about 10,000 years! \o/

Quoting: Mountain ManSingle click to open is the right way as far as I'm concerned. It just makes the most sense when you consider that the interface in every other piece of software you use on a computer only requires single clicks, so why should the desktop be the sole exception?

'Requires single clicks' to do what, though? It depends on the context whether the click selects an object (with which you go on to do something), or whether it does whatever action that's assigned to it, on whatever object that's already understood to be selected?

On file managers & such, there's a lot that you can do *after* having selected an object. When it's obvious that the object & the action are, then the single click can do whatever it's supposed to do. The 2nd click of the double click is just to say, "do the default action".

It's not Windows that established this, by the way; it was there on the original Mac OS.

The typical behavior in software is for single click to perform the default action. So, for example, if you want to save a document in a word processor, you simply click the save icon; therefore, logically, a single click should open that same document if you're working in a file browser.

But I guess that's why we like options. People like me who prefer their computer interfaces to follow consistent logic (:tongue:) can simply enable that feature in future versions of KDE.

Interesting how things have changed for GPU's. Nvidia used to be the go-to because they traditionally had the best drivers across all operating systems, but it seems AMD has flipped the script.
