Weirdly enough, I never tried Gentoo. What it will do to my autism that Arch doesn’t do already?

Just use Arch like a normal well adjusted person

All the fucking time. Now I’m at this phase of learning my third language, where it starts to sip in. I can’t sprechen normally anymore, send help пожалуйста.

I use Arch by the way

Fish is for people who like it when sometimes scripts don’t work

What the actual fuck

Fusion was achieved decades ago. But right now it takes more energy than it produces. The theoretical possibility of energy-positive reaction is more or less established. The problem right now is engineering and a little bit of material science. And when (and if) it will be solved there will be whole another set of economical problems, how to make it a commercial product.
All of that hinges less on science and more on whatever intersection of politics, economics, and psychology occupies this space. It was always 15 years away, and it was always correct estimation, it’s just it’s supposed to be 15 years of founded research and development, not 15 years of begging for funding, trying to navigate political situation, and restarting everything from scratch because previous two were unsuccessful

SteamOS is an Arch Linux, basically, with some stuff pre-installed. The only big difference is that it’s installed in immutable mode, but even that is not a big deal

It’s not set in stone. They have money, they have demand. Scaling production is a bitch and a half, but it’s not impossible to do

It’s a comparatively new product, but it’s not like it’s something unsuccessful. It’s attached to Steam, that everyone who ever had a computer knows about, and everyone has a couple of games there, it’s being talked about very positively everywhere, and they’re repeatedly gained positive reputation over pro-consumer practices they regularly employ, and they somehow evading being put on blast for the child gambling industry they operate.
They’re known among gamers, which is indeed niche crowd, but also a crowd that is important here. They don’t have the cultural grasp on humanity as Nintendo, or other two, but all of them shitting the bed constantly and publicly, while Valve is catching wins all over the place.

Not exactly, but overlap is significant. A bunch of people want Nintendo because they always did Nintendo and that’s all they know, a bunch of people know that switch is something that kids want and so they get one, sure. But a bunch of people want to play some games lying on a couch or riding a metro or sitting in a queue at a dentist, and those people will at least google what exists on the market. This is an overlapped audience, and for a lot of them steam deck will be the obviously better choice.

It already comes with Linux installed, and an emulator can be setup with five button presses and thirty seconds of waiting.
The base system is setup as immutable, but /home isn’t, so aur isn’t available out of the box, but flatpacks are for example

Also steamdeck is amazing, and a lot of people who want a handheld just chose that one

They operate in this weird world of endorsing complete freedom, but also being able to exclude some groups of people from enjoying the freedom. It gets easier to understand if you remember that they actually don’t care about integrity of their claims, or even validity of it.

We can call him a lot of basically untrue things if you want. Let’s call him a sentient mushroom.
Or we can call him a failed evil dictator that was kidnapped by a not yet failed evil dictator

Oh, I knew it would be BDG. It’s fascinating how nicely he managed to put all that

Well, money can be exchanged for goods and services

Completion here is when shareholders orgasm simultaneously.

In Germany you wouldn’t have to pay for any of it, you go to ER or call an ambulance, they help you, you’re done.
