It’s not even just the os, don’t get me wrong that’s a huge part of it but the control layouts and the quality of the buttons on all these other competitors to the steam deck are just garbage. Why the absolute fuck does no one want to do symmetrical joysticks, I will never use asymmetrical joysticks. Why does everything need to be offset and weird and why is the touchpad always an afterthought shoved into the smallest possible corner. I use the touchpads on the steam deck literally constantly, either for radial menus or even in games like factorio just as a mouse

Here is a version with more pixels

It’s not as if I can be actually helpful, you’ve given people nothing to go on other than it didn’t work for me. But seeing as literally everyone’s experiences that it works out of the box on any piece of Hardware they’ve ever touched the only thing that can tell me is that something is horrendously broken with your Linux installation. What could that be? I have no way to know, but it’s obvious that something is not even remotely how it should be the only advice I could give is to completely reinstall your Linux from scratch. Which is the same advice I would give to a Windows user facing a similar problem of something that should just work right out of the box and does for literally everybody except them

I’m going to assume that you do not mean Deep Rock Galactic with that acronym because that has worked out of the box since day one I play it regularly with friends on the steam deck and on my Linux desktop and the only thing I had to do was click play in Steam.

Can’t help you with your emulators, I used dolphin to play dokepone Kingdom regularly over VPN without any issues didn’t have to do anything special either so that one just sounds like a skill issue

Northern Canada is still almost entirely empty and cold. So give it a bit and it will be the only spot with summers under 80°

Yo chill dude, I’m 32. I’m allowed to want something that doesn’t exist, I’m literally the one that said it doesn’t exist. And I do accept there’s no better solution, that was the point of my original message. There is no alternative to Google Maps. Sure I could go get TomTom or Garmin but then I’m just paying for an equivalent Google Maps experience. Which would just be me spending money for no reason, I have had a Garmin in the past it’s a good GPS but I wouldn’t say it’s better than Google Maps so I don’t feel it’s worth the money.

It’s also just another closed Garden system that has many of the same problems as Google Maps that I’m trying to get away from. Just because I have a desire for something better does not make me a child.

I’m not even going to bother addressing that insanely leap of logic you made to somehow compare this to voting and fascism

Let me rephrase, I’m desperate for a more open, not garden locked solution. Paying for Garmin and tomtom is just paying for a different corporation locked solution.

It’s the same way I’m desperate for a replacement for Plex. But the closest thing, jellyfin, is terrible. It fails to match media, fails to play back certain files, and a bunch of other issues that Plex just does not have. Despite that I have donated to the project, I want to get away from plex and support something open. I want to get away from Google and support something open. But I need to be able to have a minimum amount of functionality.

It’s really not. Not usable ones. I’ve tried so many open map Alternatives and they suck. Wildly outdated, streets that don’t exist anymore, streets that do exist not on the map, nonsensical directions, extremely poor voice navigation directions, not knowing about tons of addresses so even if I just give it the raw address it still can’t find it and I have to basically go find the address on Google and then manually place a pain in the open map.

I’m not even in a weird place, this is just around Washington State mostly between Everett and Tacoma. The answer I always get is “oh well if you see something wrong submit a correction”. Ignoring the fact that that is wildly unhelpful if I’m somewhere new and don’t know where I’m going, if I had the time to sit there and build Maps I would just build my own God damn map.

Would desperately love to replace Google Maps for my navigation, especially lately but nothing else even comes close

Slap a humidifier in your room. Air conditioning is by its nature also a dehumidifier, so some people end up with overly dry and therfore eventually soar throats.

The GLOBAL average is hottest on record. As in, if you take ALL recorded temperatures EVERYWHERE and average them together to get the GLOBAL temperature, it’s breaking records

I find myself temporarily kind of sort of not really homeless. I bought five acres of land, with an agreement on file that the county would open the barrier upon purchase. Here I am 5 months later still struggling to even get them to answer my calls much less open my barrier. So while I have land, and an RV, I have nowhere to put it.

The majority of RV parks have no availability for long-term stay, even if they did they cost pretty much the same if not more than renting an apartment which is stupid. And most places are insanely hostile towards RVs staying anywhere else. I’ve been lucky in that I happen to be near a rest stop that is both usually not busy and absolutely huge. I’ve been sneaking under the radar staying here longer than I should occasionally hanging out at a wallmart or something during business hours to avoid being noticed.

But this is getting harder and harder as most public Waste stations have closed, and the ones that are open still have gotten rid of their potable water so I might be able to dump my Wastewater but I have nowhere to then refill water.

I built this RV to be great for 24/7 living, I have over 4 kilowatts of solar on the roof, I have over 15 KW hours of battery storage so I don’t even need an electrical hookup. I have a full size heat pump hot water heater, two chest freezers one of which is to use as a fridge, and I have about 100 gallons freshwater capacity. On top of that I have enough filtration on my water system to make it so that I could probably just safely use stream water if I really wanted. I’ve got multiple levels of whole home size filtration right at the tank, and then for all my drinking and cooking water it goes through an additional 10 stage filter system that has reverse osmosis and alkaline remineralization. It’s in good condition, clean, and it’s hard to miss the solar lining the whole thing. It’s obviously not a dilapidated homeless RV but people treat me like I’m some kind of homeless crack addict just because I’m in an RV.

I’ll happily download 63928 depends so long as it continues to work. And it does, unlike python projects that also download 2352 depends but in the process brick every other python program on your system

I went with this https://www.homedepot.com/p/Express-Water-Reverse-Osmosis-Alkaline-Water-Filtration-System-10-Stage-RO-Water-Filter-with-Faucet-and-Tank-100-GPD-ROALK10D/307338928

Just shy of $200 which isn’t bad, although I did also buy the booster pump to maintain the most efficient water pressure

Reverse osmosis with a remineralization alkaline post filter. Best water I’ve ever had, installed one in the kitchen for cooking/drinking

This, I have been using it for many many years. I wouldn’t call it perfect but it’s better than the other options in my opinion

Huh, i guess the algorithm just decided it was my time to see them all. Made it feel much more frequent

The dog in hot car one and glue in pizza cheese i was able to reproduce on my Google search before they fixed it. But definitely some are fake
