Nein aber ich spreche sehr gut Englisch. Bitte sprich Englisch

She was a dish when she was younger

What does this mean¿?

Also the main point is valve does not do anything to prevent you from selling the game directly or through other stores.

I don’t get wolfire’s point here. Yes steam takes a hefty 30% cut but game developers are free to sell directly if they want to. Unlike apple who have completely locked down the iOS app ecosystem or Google who allow sideloading but scares and warns people against downloading apps from non Play Store sources, steam does nothing to hinder games not sold through it. If there was a competitor who was as good as steam but took a smaller cut, then that competitor would have been the market leader in place of steam.

Unfortunately gabe is also overweight and hence has the health risks associated with being overweight. So him only living till the average age has a higher possibility.

Valve is not forcing us to run steam. It can’t do that. What it can do is offer a very good product which makes us use it. If in the future, valve starts doing shitty things with steam, most of the community will just move on.

Also what the hell do you mean by consumer linux is steam¿?

What will they shove though¿? They don’t control linux like how Microsoft controls windows. The only OS they have control over is SteamOS.

Well those Intel CPUs used to thermal throttle anyway in their outlandishly inadequate cooling designs so they did not need to throttle power either way. Now they could throttle power but don’t have to

MacOS doesn’t need to throttle performance because ARM and other RISC architectures are naturally very power efficient

This is not a Linux specific issue though it’s worse on Linux because vulkan shader processing happens for almost every game. I remember people on windows complaining that The Last of Us was compiling shaders for several hours when first launched and that if shader compilation was skipped the game was laggy as hell(which is not a surprise considering how poor the game ran even after shader compilation)

Is this targeted for release in April 2024 (when ubuntu’s next lts version which launch)?

Dude what are your requirements as such. Do you want to tinker or do you want a system with as low maintenance as possible at the cost of configurability¿? Are most of your games on steam¿? Is there some software you absolutely need¿? Answers to these questions will help a lot in giving you recommendations

Do you get adaptive sync options in the display section of the settings (present beside the refresh rate selection option)¿?

If yes there are 3 settings - off, automatic and always. Setting it to automatic means that vrr will be used for full screen applications including XWayland applications(would have been stupid if it did not work with XWayland as almost all games run through XWayland). Off and always are self explanatory I guess

Gsync works with x11 if I remember correctly
