Windows 10 commercial is ending, not the LTSC versions. Those are good for another 2-7 years iirc

Shame whoever took this
Do you have any advice for someone that dual boots SteamOS and Windows 10 on a Steam Deck?
I've heard online that since SteamOS manually signs keys or something, that if any changes happen to the kernel that later need to be updated by SteamOS, I'd need to re-sign the keys or whatever. Idk I'm not well versed in any of this
I've heard it's as easy as downloading the M$ keys to enable Secure Boot, but I also don't want to brick my Deck.
There's demand because there's supply.
Build it and they will come.
We have to ask the question if cheat developing wasn't profitable, and even if developers actually operated at a loss, would there be as many cheats on the market as there are now?
I play games mostly on my Steam Deck after migrating from Xbox. Didn't want to pay for Internet access to use the Internet I already pay for (Xbox Live).
Battlefield games like BF1 and BF4 used to run on the Deck about a year ago, but then EA toggled something and disallowed any and all Linux distros. Can't remember their reasoning, but something something anti-cheat.
Now me, a paying customer, was fucking pissed. I purchased these games on my Steam Deck to avoid corporate walled gardens like the Xbox, and then EA lock me out of my purchase after the refund period had elapsed. What the fuck????
So I started dual booting Windows 10 on the Deck to regain access to a product I had paid for. Fucking shit I had to do this in the first place.
But now I need to enable Secure Boot to play the new shit, and I have no clue how to do this without bricking my Deck. I'm an engineer, but not the software type. I don't want to fuck around with my gear just to play games.
Client-side AC is a poor solution to cheating that can be solved with server-side AC.
Fuck EA. Fuck M$. Fuck all the corporations that want to run spyware on my devices
Sadly, I think the financial incentive is too great these days. People make decent money off this shit
Lol exactly! These kernel level anti cheats don't stop cheaters!
Tbf, the beta is free, while the full game won't be. Money is definitely one thing that deters cheaters, but at the same time probably not as much as we think. Cheating is an industry nowadays
Thanks for the info
I'll check it out thanks!
I'm starting to see how much of a trap it is!
I'm interested in multi booting different distros. Any guides on how to wipe my current deck and start over? I've heard Bazzite and PopOS are pretty slick, and I still want to keep SteamOS.
Yeah fuck corpos!!!
I saw that comment. I'll look into it!
Hey I didn't know TF2 was so active!
I think I had it in my Steam Wish List for a while, but I can't remember if I chose to abandon it because I had heard the game was dying or something. Had no clue about the private servers and stuff.
Maybe I'll try it out! Thanks!
Fuck animal testing
I hardly believe there aren't other ways to manage animal research
