It‘s a 6-core CPU, with a 35 watt TDP. It will not be able to compete with a 7900X with 12 cores and a 5 times higher TDP - and not with a 7600X with 8 cores and 105W TDP.

Still, that’s absolutely fine for gaming.

It will run on Steam OS like the steam deck is.

If you have troubles with its protections (like the non-writeable system partition), you can just disable them.

Let‘s hope they accept more currencies than they did at the start of the steam deck ( €$£ only).

It seems that Valve has been experimenting with adding ARM support to proton for a while now. But I couldn’t find much information on this topic.

Depends on what you expext I guess? The RX 6600 is still capable of playing any game, but it’s clearly an entry level card.

My guess is that Valve is aiming for a price similar to the current steam deck, and also tried to keep the power usage low (30W CPU + 110W GPU).

The most interesting announcement (for me) is the new Steam VR hardware. It is ARM-based and likely the first linux-based VR device.

It will be interesting how game compativility will be. But thanks to streaming, we will likely be able to play just about every VR title.

I personally wouldn’t spend money on a PC that has outdated hardware with the performance of a Steam Deck.

That’s the default, if I understood this correctly. But I haven’t tried it yet.

There was a similar post a few days ago.

Yes, that is exactly what I meant.

I don’t know. All I was trying to say is that the growth of the linux market share is likely tied to external factors and not a strictly exponential growth.

That’s probably true, but the Windows 10 EoL or the “Buy European” movement likely won’t have the same momentum as in 2025.

But maybe we’ll see new linux gaming hardware, ongoing windows enshittification and better multiplayer support that will lead linux gaming out of its niche.

It took 18 month for the market share to grow from 2% to 3%.

At this rate of growth, we might hit the 5% market share before the end of the decade.

Personally, I would try to avoid publishing nginx proxy manager’s management web ui to the general public.

Please don’t confuse the nginx proxy manager (npm) with the node.js packet manager (npm). The latter is frequently in the news regarding security vulnerabilities.

@taher12@lemdro.id I see this is your first post, welcome here :) If you need help, feel free to ask.

I was recently thinking about who came up with the name. I wouldn’t have guessed the connection to port wine, but it makes sense - you can’t drink network ports.

For selfhosting, I would advise against installing a desktop environment and rather suggest to install a server version without GUI.

True. According to protondb, it is not possible to even start the game.

Take a look at the reviews, and find this insanity on the top:

need to be connected to online services even when you just want to play singleplayer campaign, and keep getting connection errors.

Thanks, I’m out.
