Back then Steam was a downgrade.

It’s not really enshittification when “Google reads your mail” has been the entire point since the launch of GMail. Relevant ads, grouping mails into topics, find spam, etc. has always been the selling point of GMail.

Proton runs on SLR.

Can anyone eli5 what the steam runtime actually does?

It’s the thing that actually runs your games.

Seems they moved away from code names: https://gitlab.steamos.cloud/steamrt/steamrt/-/blob/steamrt/steamrt4/README.md?ref_type=heads

v4 used to have the code name “medic”: https://gitlab.steamos.cloud/steamrt/steamrt/-/blob/wip/task725/medic/README.md?ref_type=heads

Berlin ihm nicht einmal zehn Prozent der Qualität bietet, die der Bundesstaat Pará und die Stadt Belém bieten

Wenn jemand über Berlin herzieht, sind das nur wir und sonst keiner! 😁

Sounds like they’re leaving the option open for Android developers to make their APK distributions compatible with Steam to play on Frame.

It was first reported months ago that Valve is involved with Waydroid (Android app compatibility for Linux with Wayland) and then at the Frame announcement confirmed to ship on Frame.

This could also potentially mean that Steam itself comes to Android (at least in the EU) to allow cross-buy and cross-progression.

Kann mir jemand erklären wieso ein Brief geheim sein darf, Chatnachrichten aber nicht?

Das eine wird von Kinderschändern und Terroristen benutzt, das andere nicht. IST DOCH LOGISCH!

Does it not come to you that someone might have never even heard of DF?

These few people can just watch a few minutes of the video and get the gist of it.

Google is developing a Linux runtime for Android, Valve are making an ARM version of Steam, so it could be usable but I don’t think it’ll light the world on fire.

Yes, but as the sidebar says, it’s only a non-binding recommendation.

as long as people remember to use flairs.

Lemmy doesn’t have flairs.

It’s the 240th episode of DF Direct Weekly. I don’t think they have to explain the format at this point any longer.

I didn’t know games could choose to be made by new developers

No, game’s aren’t alive and cannot choose anything. The higher-ups at publisher and IP owner Paradox Interactive can, however.

Usually these things happen at Microsoft when they shut down studios, like what happened with Essemble Studios (Age of Empires, Halo Wars) and Double Helix Games (Killer Instinct).

I think that there is a somewhat decent chance that there will be an ARM Steam Deck Mini at some point. The Steam Client will probably be released for ARM distributions. I think for the foreseeable future there will be a considerable overlap of topics between thee devices.

I think should there be a flood of posts regarding hardware tinkering of the other devices (people sharing faceplate STLs for Machine or addons for the Frame’s expansion port), they could be directed to dedicated communities but for now IMO it’s fine to be inclusive.

In one of the interviews they said that Frame is only the first of several ARM devices in development. My guess is that some sort of Steam Deck Mini is likely to launch next but once the ARM Steam client is out, tinkerer at Valve also have more options.

Sometimes drivers use one number during their junior days but then cannot use it because it’s taken. When the other driver retires, why not try to get that number?

they are a PC gaming company, period.

And a hypothetical Steam Phone would be an ARM PC, dockable for a full PC experience but mobil use could be similar to XPeria Play. It’s not a huge leap from Steam Deck formfactor-wise.

Not even speculation, just shitposting.

Valve confirmed that there are more ARM devices in the making. The type of device is speculation.

SteamDeck doesn’t run Android, it runs full Linux.

SteamOS on Frame is compatible with Android apps because it ships Waydroid. When Valve contributions to Waydroid surfaced months ago, I already speculated that it’s probably a porting aid for Quest games to Deckard but as soon as the tech is there (which it is now), you can bet there is someone at Valve flashing SteamOS onto a Pixel phone or so, just tinker with it.

Ferrari has sucked for years now

And they fired one of their most valuable employees who’s now lifting Williams up

He’s the greatest driver in the history of the sport

A video game speedrunner has different skills from a video game QA tester.

It was a big story when Hamilton drove the simulator late in his Mercedes tenure.

you think he lacks knowledge of the car?

Ferrari announced that Hamilton would work with the brake disc supplier to change their behavior. A few races later the brake discs fail.

Then who has it?

Mercedes’ downturn began when they fired Bottas. Ferrari’s doesn’t even manage to get by a 1-man team in the WCC since they fired Sainz. Meanwhile Sainz lifted Williams to a bronze medal in the US Sprint.
