 @gamingonlinux steam deck 2 being an arm based device would make a lot of sense to me at least. Many people have been wishing for a better battery life when gaming on the go and this could be it. Although the question remains, how much will x86 to arm translation eat power ๐ค @warriormaster @gamingonlinux I would just be satisfied with a better quality control. My steam deck is coming back from the second RMA... @jhyrachy @gamingonlinux Sorry to hear that. I personally havenโt experienced any hardware issues with my lcd deck  @gamingonlinux I've got Steam on my Pi 5 cobbled together with Box32/64, but official Arm64 support  @gamingonlinux Do they plan to allow you to launch Quest exclusives on other VR headsets? :0  @gamingonlinux an exciting future to be a part of, would love a steam deck with a riscV cpu @gamingonlinux woah. Hopefully this means I could get an Apple silicon laptop with @AsahiLinux and play x86 games straight from Steam as easily as it is now on an x86 CPU!   @gamingonlinux :blobfoxfloofexplode: :blobfoxfloofexplode: :blobfoxfloofexplode: :blobfoxfloofexplode: WHAAAAAAAT??? :blobcatcode: @gamingonlinux We can't thank Valve enough for their contribution to gaming on Linux ๐  @gamingonlinux Yooo, could they also allow games to be played on Android, similar to what Epic announced a while back about having an alternative storefront on phones? |
@gamingonlinux Been waiting for this for years
