So Ubuntu actually has 8.61% and 13,16% if Mint is counted (Mint is in practice Ubuntu and even using their repositories).

Why these Ubuntu's (core / snap and regular) are separated there makes no much sense.

Well, and it is still "just one" Ubuntu version here. I suspect that the rest of Ubuntus are hidden within the rest of those 30.93%

Although not a big fan of KDE, this device looks quite promising :happy:

Quoting: BoldosUnfortunately, SteamDeck betas are crippling the device for me quite often (two times within the past two months so far), making the device unbootable :angry:

Recovery through factory reset was required to make it work again...

Same here. Are you on a 64GB LCD by any chance? One of the bug fixes to beta recently was a potential corruption of the filesystem on 64GB systems. Glad they spotted that before reaching a stable release! I've never had problems with beta until the last couple of months, which was due to that specific bug, I think.

Yes, I'm on a 64GB LCD version...

Quoting: BoldosBut what drove me away was the fact that majority of the game was a perfect example of a so called Potemkin village game mechanics:

Games are pretty much Potempkin villages. They lie and cheat, especially when you're not looking. Best ones can give illusion that the world continues to exist even when you're not around.

Well, in general, yes, you are of course correct; all game engines are by definition Potemkin villages. And yes, game engines - in general - do cheat all the time... Mainly to save the CPU+GPU power for other intensive tasks.

But you are talking about different level of Potemkin villages than what I meant, when comparing NMS to X4 Foundations universes.

The idea of comparing those two universes - the Potemkin village-universe of NMS vs. simulated universe of X4 Foundations - was that NMS is not >>really<< simulating the whole universe when you're not looking (or rather - it seems to be simulating only your immediate surroundings, where you, as s player, are now present, and looking) whereas the X4 Foundations >>really is simulating<< the rest of the universe on the background, regardless of you - as a player - looking...

Economies of all factions, movement of goods on ships, movement of ships, building stations and new ships using appropriate resourcing, battles and wars, destroying ships and stations... In X4 (almost) everything is fuly simulated (and universe-wide persistent) in the background for the whole universe you are in.

In X4 it is as if you were in the online, always developing, almost fully persistent, universe. (With the exception, that the whole game runs offline on your machine). Hence, there might be e.g. a big simulated war raging on on the other side of the X4 universe, without you really knowing about it. Nevertheless, you will usually feel&see the results of the war in the simulated X4 universe around you after some time ...
