Steam Beta improves download speed of Steam Client updates on Linux / Steam Deck and other fixes

It's a mistake to remove the "Steam Play" toggle for desktop clients, but it should be enabled by default with the current latest Proton as a specific option, i.e. 'always use the current latest available regular stock Proton release'. with the other options also available. Also curious why this hasn't been renamed yet, "Steam Play" is a terrible name.

GameOS... definitely one of the names of all time.
The more I hear about this totally-not-a-scam project, the less I wish I heard about it.

For inspiration, Youtuber DrillingInTheNameOf made a series of videos on real life versions of the DRG drinks. As a professional bartender, he knows his stuff. Lloyd would be proud of The Abyss Bar series!

Debians changelog for firefox tells an interesting tale.
It started as phoenix in 2002 -> mozilla-firebird -> mozilla-firefox -> firefox, changed to iceweasel in 2006 and back again with firefox/firefox-esr 45 in 2016.
Today, firefox resides solely in sid, iceweasel is long gone and firefox-esr is available for all suites.

This is mental.

And by that, do I mean the fact this project exists and works? The reality that people still buy and use Nvidia graphics cards? The continued awesomeness of GOL content? The indomitable spirit of the open source communities? The above comment? 2025 in general?
Spoiler, click me
Yes.
