Not literally, but this turns your device into a Steamdeck, which is what you implied you wanted. With the option to launch into Big Picture/Gaming Mode.

Install Bazzite and use the Laptop version with Steam Gaming Mode if you have an AMD system. It’s what you’re asking for but for non-deck devices. http://bazzite.gg/

Is NL trying to maximize revenue? How so other than playing games that bring in more viewers than those that don’t? He showed the stats for Midnight Sons and it basically cut his income in half. He’s got bills and a kid, so unless there’s other stuff, I don’t really get this criticism because there’s gotta be a limit when its your job. He still frequently plays different games too. Recently did a bunch of demos for the Steam nextfest.

They literally did. The rocks are theirs and they’re trying to share.

You mean Kinoite. And the same team that does Bazzite also has Bluefin or Aurora for non-gamers that are Silverblue/Kinoite with extra drivers and codecs and such. Highly recommend any of the 3 between Bluefin/Aurora/Bazzite. They’re also super willing to help out with issues in their Discord or through Github.

That’s the funny thing is that they don’t have to. They just sign a form that affirms their strongly held conviction. No explanation necessary, because otherwise school admins would have the messy job of ruling on what is and isn’t legitimate belief. Just have to hope more states follow suit.

I do. But only the Ublue variants. Bazzite, Aurora, or Bluefin depending in if someone games or prefers a Windows or MacOS style desktop. Ublue adds so much that makes things “just work” that stock Fedora doesn’t. Drivers, codecs, patches. I had to add GRUB arguments to stock Fedora to even make it boot with my Nvidia card. I never had that problem with Mint, PopOS, or even Arch with archinstall. A noob isn’t doing that.

That said, atomic distros have their own problems. The install order is Flatpak or Brew, distrobox, then layering as a last resort. What happens to the newbie when a Flatpak doesn’t work properly because of some unknown permission issue that needs Flatseal? Or when its objectively worse than the layered counterpart, like Steam? They have to move down the line and at the very least read the docs on how to install each of these things. I had to look up how to enable a Brew service for Syncthing to work just the other day because the Syncthingy flatpak wouldn’t work.

Buy bulk as much as you can. Dry lentils, beans and noodles, canned goods, frozen vegetables, tofu lasts a long time unopened. If you have someone who can drive and you plan what you’re going to eat ahead of time, you can probably make it by on a single grocery trip a month. If any stores near you do ordering ahead, that’d save time for you and your driver, but you’ll need to watch close that they don’t try to substitute anything if they’re out of stock. Worst case for environmental reasons, but you can order a surprising amount of dry goods on places like Amazon. The grocery shopping equivalent to Door Dash I think is Instacart, but that may also be expensive.

There’s definitely no ideal option, but it helps to think that there are places in the world where people eat essentially the same meal every day outside of special occasions and that eating whatever you feel like every night is a privilege. So get used to simple recipes with similar ingredients you can take advantage of. This helped me break out of the idea that I can’t have stir fry 3 days in a row because its not ‘balanced’ when you’re fine as long as overall you’re meeting your vitamin and nutritional needs.

This was an attempted rape that didn’t get far enough for the courts to ‘prove’ it, but the girls report him trying to separate them after they were drugged. He wasn’t just trying to get them to quiet down.
