Valve's Steam Deck updates to Plasma 6.2.5!

  • Is that possible when the OS is based on Arch?

  • So, they are just "based" on arch?

  • I understand that, but if you run a rolling release, you know you're getting updates constantly, and this is what I'm asking about. How is steam keeping up with these updates while "not updating"? Lol

  • I'd love to know. I'd assume that "split release" would be happening on the steam client itself (when you get an update through the steam settings), because going into desktop mode, you only get flatpaks update (at least as far as I know). You can't just run sudo pacman -Syu and get your update.

  • It has always confused me how they're able to keep updates for too long on a rolling release distro. What kind of magic do they use to achieve that?

    • Valve "followed" 1.7 million Steam users for over a year, and now reports those gamers spent $20 million on microtransactions and another $73 million on games and DLC

  • Lmao. I mostly play the free games. I also have the heroic launcher and I'm signed into gog, epic and prime on it and so far, they've given me 85 free games. I have a lifetime supply of games.

  • I've been on steam for over 4 years and I've spent a whopping $0.99.

    • Microsoft co-authored paper suggests the regular use of gen-AI can leave users with a 'diminished skill for independent problem-solving' and at least one AI model seems to agree

  • Is that why Microsoft pushing copilot so hard on people? They even made a dedicated button for it on keyboards.

    • Microsoft wants a slice of Valve's pie (and more Deck gaming news)

  • When did John Bolton become a gamer?
