I think I’d actually buy some as wall decoration.

I think you need to look out for “OVMF”.

Alpine Linux is an independent, non-commercial, general purpose Linux distribution designed for power users who appreciate security, simplicity and resource efficiency.

It’s also around for 20 years already, so long before Docker was a thing. But setting it up as a desktop OS would be a bit of work, I agree.

I assume Alpine Linux is very limited in terms of power usage, at least out of the box.

Haven’t watched the video yet, but I’d bet those models aren’t open source, they’re open weight and it’s probably not every way, but sure, why not.

Edit:

I might have been wrong

That name is terribly close to the more popular NewPipe

Idiots.

Its not even worth the 1000+$ Valve is asking for it. Why are people paying even more?

I mean, it’s a bug, right? I’m not aware of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption having a built-in Paper Mario game.

I"m not sure where you are getting this from, but there’s absolutely no demand, and I mean none at all, for another Steam Link hardware.
You can run some form of Steam Link on basically anything you can hook up to a TV (or the TV itself).

I’m currently in the process to switching over to it.

The original Google captcha was back in the Don’t Be Evil time, if I’m not mistaken. No shame in believing them back then.

Yeah, pretty fucking sure it’s going to be 1200€+ here in the EU. That’s a hard sell for people with a quest or the index.

Could be just streaming, but who knows.

dd-mm-yyyy is not an insane format, thank you.

Ah yes, nothing better than getting a heat stroke playing Beat Saber when it is 40°C in the apartment. /s

I don’t think real rebels use GitHub, though: https://github.com/Anon-Gratis

KDE Connect and SyncThing

Turn your laptop around and look for a sticker with a model number. Go to your vendor’s support website, search for the model number and check their BIOS/UEFI downloads. Usually it’s a file you put on a USB stick, then you boot into BIOS/UEFI (press F12 or DEL ob boot, check manual if in doubt), select BIOS/UEFI update and select the file on the USB stick.

It’s the same for desktop components. There are very few vendors/models that get BIOS/UEFI updates via Windows Update (or fwupd under Linux).

Instead of a battery + USB power supply, you have a “normal” power supply. The controller parts of the Deck are basically in the Steam Controller, plus the dock/dongle. The Machine has a huge chunk of metal on the chips to dissipate the additional heat, which also adds to the cost. All of this still needs to fit in an incredibly small form factor and has better, more expensive components plus more RAM in total. Add ~20% VAT because that’s how prices are calculated in the EU.
I say the cheapest we might see for a variant with included contoller is 900€ and that’s probably if we’re lucky.
