I support #BoycottUSA. But unfortunately, #GOG doesn't have all the games that #Steam has. Besides, #Proton is way easier than standalone #WineHQ. And the CEO of #Valve wasn't even with the cockroaches and the clockwork orange. Maybe everything around Valve is #Usonian, but I see them as one of the few good guys.
Okay, I didn't know that other people were interested in the #Kuroko language like I was.
This #GitHub user added Kuroko to the #SourceEngine which is the coolest thing I've seen all week if I'm honest.

Big props to this user, go show him some support.

Valve have put back both Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced and Rainbow Six Siege as Steam Deck Unsupported again - article updated: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/03/surprisingly-valve-rated-grand-theft-auto-v-enhanced-and-rainbow-six-siege-as-steam-deck-playable/
GamingOnLinux · Surprisingly, Valve rated Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced and Rainbow Six Siege as Steam Deck Playable
I know it's not super timely, but the last build I played of the fan-made Portal 64 port didn't have title screens, menus or options.
This week I played the last build and it felt like a commercial release! Even had the Valve splash screen when it launched!

Hello le Fediverse,
J'en appelle à votre bon coeur et votre aide pour une demande un peu farfelue 
J'ai grand besoin de vieilles valves Presta FILETÉES de + de 4cm de long (oui c'est précis et très mystérieux).
À mon boulot (boutique/atelier vélo) je n'arrive pas à en récupérer assez. Je passe régulièrement dans d'autres ateliers vélo de Stras' pour en récupérer, mais ça ne suffit pas non plus
Du coup je lance un peu un sos d'une upcycleuse en détresse :
- si vous êtes de Strasbourg ou alentours, n'hésitez pas à me découper et garder vos vieilles valves Presta filetées de + de 4cm, je me ferai une joie de les recuperer dès que vous en aurez genre au moins 10 :3
- si vous n'êtes pas du coin mais que vous pouvez en récupérer pas mal, je serais ravie de vous payer l'affranchissement pour un envoi si vous êtes d'accord 
Alors oui, j'entends vos questions : mais qu'est-ce que j'en fais ? 
Essentiellement des fidget toys à visser et dévisser à l'infini (et au-delà) ==> voir photos en 1er commentaire
Mais également des porte-clés pour toujours avoir son adaptateur de valve sur soi ! ==> voir photos en 2ème commentaire
Et sinon, petite info importante pour celleux qui ne l'auraient pas vu passer : si vous êtes un atelier ou magasin de vélos, Schwalbe vous envoie gratuitement des bons d'envoi pour vos colis de vieilles chambres à air. Ils les recyclent 
(et qu'importe la marque des chambres à air, ils prennent tout).
+ d'infos en tapant "Schwalbe recyclage" sur votre moteur de recherche préféré !
Et la bonne nouvelle c'est qu'ils ne recyclent que les chambres, vous pouvez donc me garder les valves =D
N'hésitez pas à partager ce message et à me contacter si vous avez de -précieuses- valves Presta assez longues (et filetées) 
Merci, des bisous plein de cambouis !

Valve's Steam Deck updates to Plasma 6.2.5!
The games console has a slow update cycle to guarantee stability for users, but #Valve announced yesterday that both the #Arch base system and the #Plasma desktop environment are being updated to new preview releases.

Windows is still the N°1 gaming platform by far.
The thing is, how much until then it becomes an alternative rather than the norm. SteamOS has been progressing a lot but online games anti-cheat is its weakness.
Unfortunately that’s not entirely up to Valve.

Sinceramente, veo que #Valve está decidida en partir el #LinuxGaming en dos, con #SteamOS por un lado y el resto de distribuciones por otro.
Dentro de un tiempo los usuarios de #Linux tendremos que volver a hacer dual boot para jugar, con nuestra distribución principal por un lado y #SteamOS o #Bazzite por otro.
Muy triste que esto empiece a atisbarse en el horizonte y me da que el paso del tiempo reforzará mi decisión de migrar a #GOG.

Corregidme si me equivoco, pero no veo nada de #BigPicture ni de la inhibición del apagado de la pantalla en #Steam para #Linux. https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/03/steam-update-adds-game-notes-to-the-web-demo-installs-on-profile-game-list-8bitdo-micro-support/

One of the reasons I felt obligated to create my own skin for Steam when Valve switched from VGUI to CSS is that their CSS skills are incredibly poor.
Yes, what you're seeing is # ebebeb on # dcdedf (1.12 contrast ratio).
Steam Deck, ~3 month review.
Disclaimer: I have never owned or used a console other than borrowing my partner's Nintendo Switch. Almost everything I know about consoles is second hand. I'm a Linux gamer and fully ditched Windows a couple of years ago.
TL;DR: this is arguably the best gaming experience I've had, with the exception that translating mouse+keyboard to controller is still challenging for me and I'm being a little conservative about game choice.
My Steam Deck has bumped up my gaming time by a significant amount and I have a new appreciation for Steam Input after not quite getting it with my Steam Controller.
It's portable in way that a Laptop simply isn't: this is something I could play on a plane or a train or a tram. I've already travelled overseas with it and while I didn't pull it out on the plane, I so easily could have. I did make a lot of use of it in hotel rooms.
I remember Linux gaming at the beginning when drivers sucked, but a few games got ported, then UT2004 launched with a Linux installer on the retail CDs. I remember the promise of Valve embracing Linux with Steam Machines and that effort faltering, then being reborn with Proton. The Steam Deck feels like the culmination of all of this and makes me feel like we could be close to the year of gaming on Linux. In all honesty, handhelds running Windows seem silly in comparison to the "perfection" of Steam OS on the Steam Deck. It feels like Windows has been leapfrogged in the retail space.
As for Steam OS and the tweaked version of Steam it runs: "hacking" isn't: you're in a walled garden which is less "walled garden" and more "nearly endless forest" and if you want to leave, well the option's right there on the power menu with the only caveat being you need to run Steam to get a keyboard and touchpad mouse in the desktop environment. Want to install an alternate Proton version: just do it from the desktop environment. Dev mode: just enable the toggle in settings.
It is very much "just a weird laptop" in that there's nothing really stopping you from just changing stuff in it. Parts and repair guides are available from iFixit, alternate parts (e.g. hall effect joysticks, expanded storage) are readily available and installing an alternate OS is no more complicated than on a PC.
It's very polished in a way that we've come to expect from Valve and is also a powerful and flexible gaming machine and shows off the flexibility of Linux. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Son ya más de dos años de problemas que no se resuelven y la situación de #Steam para #Linux se ha vuelto insostenible, al menos con el reempaquetado #Flatpak.
Ya mi paciencia estaba muy agotada, y esta ha sido la gota que ha colmado el vaso.
He reportado bugs y hasta he expresado una queja pública, pero parece que a #Valve le entra por un oído y le sale directamente por el otro. https://www.muylinux.com/2024/12/24/steam-flatpak-aplicacion-rota/
MuyLinux · Steam Flatpak, una aplicación que está totalmente rotaLa situación del reempaquetado de Steam en formato Flatpak es cada vez peor debido a problemas que se han cronificado.
¿Cuál es el último episodio de #Steam para #Linux? Pues la incapacidad de la aplicación de inhibir el apagado de la pantalla, al menos en su versión #Flatpak.
Este nuevo problema se suma a otros que siguen presentes, como la rotura de Steam Input con #BigPicture o el hecho de que la interfaz Big Picture termine funcionando a pocos FPS.
Con este nuevo problema, que obviamente me afecta, puedo considerar ya a Steam para Linux como una aplicación rota. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/11694
