If you've lived a for a few centuries, then DS9 might seem recent. Maybe DrMcCoy is a vampire…‽
Nah... I guess that is yet another Lanthanite amongst us; they are known to live for centuries... :whistle:

This looks really cool.... :smile: (gameplay-wise)

SteamOS support is being explored for the Lenovo Legion Go 2

"M$ threatened our Windows discounts after that Go S release, so we had to promise a Windows-exclusive release, even though everybody is figuring out it runs way worse that way."
Ugh... and where does this come from, please?

Oh... Stardock Entertainment?

This brings very strong OS/2 memories from the past... :happy::heart:

What kind of machines includes RISC-V processors?
(No, I dont want to google)
There are also some like:
- https://milkv.io/jupiter [External Link] (built around SoC Spacemit K1/M1)
- https://milkv.io/titan [External Link] (built around SoC UltraRISC UR-DP1000)
- https://docs.banana-pi.org/en/BPI-F3/BananaPi_BPI-F3 [External Link] (built around SoC Spacemit K1/M1)
- https://www.sifive.com/boards/hifive-premier-p550 [External Link] (built around ESWIN EIC7700X SoC)
- https://wiki.sipeed.com/hardware/en/lichee/th1520/lpi4a/1_intro.html [External Link] (built around Alibaba TH1520 SoC; but this one has a *horrible* security bug on silicon; do NOT buy!)

Moreover, there are laptops, like:
- https://deepcomputing.io/product/dc-roma-risc-v-laptop-ii/ [External Link] (built around SoC Spacemit K1/M1)
- https://www.techpowerup.com/332110/framework-releases-risc-v-mainboard-for-framework-laptop-13 [External Link] (built around SoC StarFive JH7110)
- https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007204555493.html [External Link] (built around insecure SoC Alibaba TH1520)

Well, although encouraging, I remain skeptical:
Majority of today's (useable) RISC-V SBCs have integrated Imagination/PowerVR GPUs, and for those AFAIK there are no real functional drivers available (meaning drivers with HW accel capabilities).

Moreover, these GPUs only support OpenGL ES (e.g. mobile OpenGL, not "full" OpenGL). And (again AFAIK) Vulkan drivers are nowehre near ready... Even the desktop environments (and thus UI apps) do not have proper HW accel performance available...

So I'm not sure what exactly do Bianbu guys mean by the statement, or what they actually did/tried... :huh:

(Yes, it is possible to "McGyver" yourselves a proper GPU (usually old AMD grraphics) onto the PCIe slot - if your RISC-V SBC actually has any - and then try&miss and tinker with drivers and make it work... but there is absolutely zero official and/or standard support for this anyway...)
