What's even more funny is that they already have two, somewhat decent, interfaces which are meant for touch; Win8 tablet UI and Windows Phone Live Tiles UI.
If they want, they can easily work upon them, make them controller-friendly, and bake it into Win11. But they are too stubborn to do it.

By standard social definitions, I’m a broke student
This, i believe, is one of the biggest faults of society/social media which is not discussed enough. We are always chasing an unreachable goal of success which makes us constantly depressed.
I don’t mind public transport because it’s good enough for my needs
I mostly use public transport other than scenarios where it's just not feasible (catching a flight at 6-7 am). What I meant to say is that I am fortunate enough to be in an area which has good public transport.
The big thing is that the Deck uses Linux which allows Steam to provide an amazing interface
For most people, i think it's just that it has a good UI. They don't bother whether it's linux-powered. Maybe it's possible to create a good UI in windows as well, but it will be bogged down by 100s of unwanted processes.
Does it host the Minecraft authentication system as well? I haven't been able to play recently to check this.
Some games will refuse to work on Linux but their Android port might work. If Valve can make this process seamless, it could be a gamechanger. Example, Genshin Impact, Wuthering Waves etc
I consider myself rich. This is how i have quantified it
- Rich enough to avail public transport
- Rich enough to eat home-cooked meals (enough time to purchase the items as well)
- Rich enough to spend time on the gym to improve my health
- Rich enough to spend time on my hobbies (gaming)
- Rich enough to have spare time to spend with my loved ones
- Rich enough to afford a nationalized healthcare plan
- Rich enough to plan a investment technique so that I can retire peacefully
I am extremely privileged. Sometimes I wonder if I even deserve it. I don't think i will require any more money at this point. But people around me will call me middle-class because i'm not hustling enough. I don't care to be honest; i'm at peace.

Did you just insult the superior siege weapon?
I'm sure Microsoft's answer will be an Edge-powered handheld interface with the entire W11 OS underneath.
Microsoft: As long as Adobe, Office, Autodesk are on my side, I have nothing to worry about.
Looks like I really need to check gyro aiming.
On a controller, if you’re slightly off center, suddenly it isn’t as simple, because the joystick is overly sensitive and so to move 1cm is a lighting fast action input, meaning that you’re almost guaranteed to overshoot it, unless your joystick sensitivity is super low.
This has been the biggest problem for me. I can't aim at the enemies when are very far (small hitbox). I have been trying to strafe and put them on my crosshair but it needs a very different skill. I have been hearing a lot of people talking about FlickStick. I have to look it up.
Microsoft: So, what are you going to do about it? Stop using Windows? Hah!
I have been a PC gamer for the majority of my life. But before that, i was a console player on the NES. But NES mainly had platformers, and no 3d games. So i am not used to movement and camera controls simultaneously at all.
I have purchased a Steam Deck OLED and it's phenomenal at playing platformers and twin stick top down games. However, i am absolutely sucking at FPS games on it. Can't make shots on the controller which are like muscle memory on my PC. I'm also having a slightly hard time on 3rd person over the shoulder games (not as bad as FPS though). It's probably because of my age (30+) I guess.
My question is that is there a way to improve other than 'git gud'? Example, is there an easy FPS game where I don't have to move or shoot too fast? Or a sample controller exercise game, like we have AimLabs for mouse movement.
Thanks.
I was thinking about the anti-cheat scenario and this popped on my mine. Consider the following scenario.
Valve comes out with an alternate OS for the Steam Deck called "Steam OS Secure" which supports anti-cheats. Special proprietary blobs were added to the OS, in collaboration with the game devs, which allow it to monitor metrics at the kernel level. These anti-cheats will only be able to run on an unmodified Steam Deck which gets disabled the moment you "modify" your Deck.
(I'm unsure what "modify" means here. Maybe if the user creates a root password or if a new layer has been added on top of SteamOS)
This will come pre-installed with the Deck (Steam Deck 3 maybe), but a seperate OS without the proprietary blobs is also available and can be downloaded/installed right from the Deck itself. This can be switched anytime but it's a lengthy procedure. Obviously, the one without the anti-cheat performs better.
What do you think about this? Would you approve this? Will your perception towards Valve change? Will it be better for gaming over all?
Edit: I can understand the dislikes. No one wants RING-0 anti-cheat on Linux. But I just want to have a discussion on this. I don't see game devs making exceptions their game only on Linux in the near future.

Many people complain that there should not be a level-limit to anvils. However, I have never encountered this issue IF I'm using it properly. I have made the perfect armor / tools with all the best enchants multiple times (on vanilla), and if you combine the books in the correct order, you never reach the limit.
Hello everyone. A month back I posted about our new vanilla SMP server, Lazcraft. We received a few applicants and are having a great time.
This weekend or the next we will be having the Ender Dragon fight, so this would be a great time to have a few more players. Our server is semi-mature now. We have an iron-farm, a slime farm, a trading hall and various other farms. This is perfect for players who want to skip the early game.
We have a relaxed atmosphere with young adults. As of now, most of the players are from the Asia timezone.
If you want to join, please put the following details in the comment below.
- Age range - below 18 / 18-25 / 25-30 / 30 above (not an age restriction. Just to understand the range)
- Region - EU/East Coast/West Coast/SE Asia
- Timezone - GMT+-??
- Type of player - Builder / Technical player / Explorer / PvP expert
If I find your profile preferable, I'll send you a link to our Discord server via DMs. Please check the original post for more details.
Some technical details about the server
- MC version 1.20.1 with Fabric with some performance mods
- Running on Oracle cloud
- Vanilla with some QoL mods
- Daily backups
I am using a Dell Latitude 3420 (Ubuntu 22.04.3) and it uses a slightly older OEM kernel 5.14.0-1048-oem.
The generic kernels keep getting upgraded but are never used. The current generic that I have is 6.2.0-26-generic and 5.15.0-79-generic.
So I have 2 questions
- Should I leave the kernel as it is? Some threads online say it's better to leave it as it is as an OEM kernel is better for Ubuntu-certified laptops
- If I should change the kernel, what would be the best way? I don't want to hard-code the kernel version.
- If I have issues in the latest generic kernel, I should be able to roll-back to the OEM kernel.

Hello there!
I have recently created Lazcraft SMP, a Java vanilla SMP server. It's just been over a week and we haven't even fought the Ender Dragon. We have around 6-7 players with mostly 3-4 players online and we are looking for a few more players. Most of the players are late teens and from Asia timezone.
The server atmosphere is chill and relaxed. The spawn is on top of a beautiful Cherry Blossom biome. We are focused on exploring the game and not trying to rush any objective. Most of the players are builders or explorers (I am the only technical player on the server). We would be delighted to have people of similar temperament from the Lemmy community. If you would like to join us, please comment below
- your general location (Country/Timezone)
- your age range (late 20s/early 20s/teen)
- your play style (PvP player, building, technical player)
- what you want to achieve in the server in the long term
If I find your profile suitable, I'll share a Discord link (sorry Matrix users 😔) where I'll share the server IP.
I just tried to upgrade Ubuntu and I suddenly see that new packages want to be installed; snapd and firefox. I don't need Firefox because I'm already using Firefox-ESR as a deb and I certainly don't need snaps.
Why is Ubuntu doing this? I get it you like snaps but I don't, so don't try to force install it. I had to use apt-mark hold to block the install of snapd and firefox. This is also not an isolated incident. I just checked Reddit and someone made a thread 8 hours back regarding the same issue.
This thing is giving me Microsoft vibes.

This problem occurs sometimes but goes away after a refresh. Just letting you know @sunaurus@lemm.ee
I made a post on asklemmy@lemmy.ml but it was not getting any responses so decided to ask here where people have experience in hosting lemmy instances.
I am not sure how cross-posting works here so I'm just going to paste the link to the original post https://lemm.ee/post/24869.
The main query I have is how is data partitioned over instances when I'm participating in communities in other instances.
You can post your answers here or there.
I made this community for the people of Kolkata, who wants to leave r/kolkata. Hope we can make this as vibrant as the reddit community!
