The article says that the influence on battery usage is low. But the higher resolution might result in a higher power draw.

You can trim it even further:

If you need help, feel free to ask here on lemmy. At least my home instance has more linux users than windows users, and there are many who are happy to help.

True, only through heroic. It has been among the most wished features of GOG, yet never fulfilled.

That’s a tough one. Clearly, everyone hates both kernel-level anticheat and cheaters. The level of hate depends.

I could make another meme “Linux Gaming without Valve and Steam”, but it would have another picture on it…

It’s my observation that Valve has earned the trust of the linux gaming community and therefore is the one and only acceptable proprietary launcher.

Mandatory first party launchers?

I haven’t been playing on windows for years now, please forgive my lack of knowledge ;)

I must confess that I love the Assassins Creed series

You’re right. It’s just frustrating that most games could run better (or at all) if publishers paid just a little bit of attention.

Additionally, the first Alpha version of PlaytronOS has now been released for those of you who wish to test and give feedback. So far they note it has been tested across the AYANEO 2, ASUS ROG Ally, GPD Win 4 (2023), Lenovo Legion Go, Valve Steam Deck LCD and Valve Steam Deck OLED.

Quite a nice list of tested handhelds.

Interestingly, this CPU performs noticeably better under Linux than under Windows 11

With FSR getting better each year, I think the time is ready for full hd on the deck. Also, 2560x1600 would be a nice option, offering both high DPI and flawless scaling from the original resolution.

This seems like a huge win for Microsoft

I absolutely expect vendors to push out new patterns automatically and as fast as possible.

But in this case, a new system driver was rolled out. And when updating system software, I absolutely expect security vendors to use a staged rollout like everyone else.

Looks like this Logo needs a few more supporters…

I’ve seen PCs that took something like 5 to 10 minutes to boot (xp era).

yes. Sadly, very few games get such improvement after launching. But we can expect new games to support it.

The hardware vendors treat their products as small gaming pc with a controller, unlike steam.
