I want this as a sticker on my laptop!

Yeah, mostly. Some of the projects they use are licensed under non-copyleft licenses (e.g. dxvk is under zlib which isn’t copyleft). Valve pushes many parts that constitute SteamOS into their own forks that then trickle into the mainline projects, e.g. Proton is opensource and changes to Proton’s version of Wine are slowly introduced into mainline Wine. You could slap all these changes together and compile your own SteamOS, but Valve currently doesn’t publish it as one nice package. There are projects like Bazzite that apply these changes to other distros (in this case Fedora).

The old SteamOS from 2015 was indeed publicly available. It was to be used on the so-called »Steam Machines« and it was based on Debian.

The new SteamOS from 2022 is based on Arch, is made specifically for the Steam Deck and is not available publicly. Some similar distros exist.

How is Stalker 2?

Use gsettings:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'Adwaita-dark' 

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'prefer-dark'

it really is a pretty game

Windows 2000 looked amazing.

It’s the place to go for small indie games.

What kind of problems did you have?

I hope that when my current laptop dies, a somewhat libre and linux-friendly alternative with an ARM chipset will be on the market.

we’re all going to die

is that Papyrus?

Yes, please!

I’ve only played the first few minutes of the first Half Life (I know, it’s on my list™). I had to turn off texture filtering immediately; the game looks terrible otherwise. Question: Why did games of this era (Morrowind also comes to mind) look this way, i.e. blurry?

the fish is dead? :o
