People said this about Linux before the steam deck and well, here we are.

I tried blacklisting it, and that makes it no longer work in gamepad-tester (on html5), and still exhibits the same problem. I think this is just steam input being weird with this particular controller.

I managed to use vulkan on nvidia on Arch, but needed to use Proton Experimental.

My 8bitdo gamepad shows up as two gamepads though with the same input :(

I posted about it here: (sorry not sure how to do a cross-post from its instance) https://lemmy.ca/post/1123689?scrollToComments=true, but SDL version 2.28 is broken for 8bitdo controllers in Xbox mode, downgrading to 2.27 fixes that.

I mean going from Unilever to CeraVe which is owned by Nestle might be a sideways move at best.

Hibernate is it's own challenge in Linux right now as lockdown mode doesn't work with hibernate (and I think a lot of distros use lockdown mode by default for security). I had to patch the kernel to enable this: https://gist.github.com/kelvie/917d456cb572325aae8e3bd94a9c1350

I've worked with both s76 and framework's support and they've been great. Community support for framework is also especially good (for Linux)

Another alternative is you can get one of those phone controllers, and stream from your desktop PC using moonlight (client) and sunshine (server).

If your home internet has okay latency it works for a lot of controller-centric games just fine.

I pay them to not get ads and not sell my data (and for higher quality searches than DDG) -- you know how they say if you're not paying, you're the product?

Given that search actually costs X, once you're cogniziant of it, you have to decide whether or not you want to pay X for a search, or find alternatives.

But the problem is that this is what it costs for a search that doesn't sell your data or advertise to you. Search is expensive.

Fortunately you do get into the habit of just searching sites directly, like wikipedia, MDN, archwiki, etc., rather than using up your general purpose searches.

It's this, or sell your data to Google for free searches.

And maybe you're right. Maybe it's just not sustainable for searched to be paid, but Kagi is really transparent about their pricing. It's just expensive unless it's subsidized by ads or data collection.

Hah. What prompted this post was I actually just discovered ventoy and was looking for more images to put on there.

It seems like it can even do a Windows one for when I need to do odd 3rd party firmware update that of course doesn't support Linux.
