Valve released an official FAQ about the Steam Deck: it can turn into a controller for other PCs running Steam, making it the new Steam Controller :) https://www.steamdeck.com/en/faq #linux #linuxgaming #valve #steam #steamdeck #controller #faq

Answer to the question: "To go from the beta version to the final version, will it be necessary to reinstall?"

Dolphin Oracle on Twitter ==> No, although there might be a few manual adjustments to make if you want to align with the final iso.

Added an updated to my org-capture post from 2 years ago, rather than just creating a new one.

Here's the updated post, part of a series:

I think I'll keep modifying and updating, making the blog more wiki-like this way, with a section dedicated to org-mode. Could be cool.

The beginning of this idea is today's post:

This reminded me of settling down in #alpinelinux with my daily laptop (but rather on arm machines). I really need its diskless mode for safety.

You’re telling me there’s a bat-themed superhero, and a superhero that uses echolocation to get around, and they’re two completely different guys

Christine Love and collaborators just released a new game! It's a free 7-9ish hour lesbian road trip RPG, with a $10 swimsuit DLC.

This game is SO STYLISH, every time I've looked at her laptop screen for the last 4 years of development something absurd & visually stunning has been happening. If you are a fan of ~color palettes~, you should play this game.

Today I learned about "smerge" in emacs. How did I not know about this earlier?

This video talks about smerge and ediff, btw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S2pMZ6U5Tc

After yesterday, I'm tempted to share this link yet again...

The Open-Source Software bubble that is and the blogging bubble that was - Baldur Bjarnason: https://www.baldurbjarnason.com/2021/the-oss-bubble-and-the-blogging-bubble/

Yes: The Linux kernel, GCC, GNU LibC, Bash, CoreUtils, etc do appear to be caught up in this. Certainly Linux... I don't know about the rest of our stack...

(Don’t get me wrong, I still think the term has value in drawing attention to the power of centralised digital/networked technology to amplify the fundamental inequities and autocratic tendencies of capitalism in ways that were simply not possible before but not if we view it as a corruption of capitalism. It is capitalism working as designed, its ramifications – internalities not externalities – amplified exponentially by centralised digital/networked technology.)

I’ve finished writing my book, The Essential Guide to Surveillance Capitalism, and you can read it in its entirety below:

Surveillance capitalism is just capitalism.

I decided to use blop for my blog. Looks to be very good software with no bloat. Thanks for all the recommendations from the fediverse.
