Yeah, sorry I meant more in the way that a user in a VM is a really different threat surface to a full root user.

For sure both should apply security patches, and avoid malware, I'm just wondering even within that model what the differences are.

article has the original request in relation to watching a movie on a trip

Reddit and fediverse users fellate a guy who owns a yacht company for checking a box in a linux distro, news at 11

the devil

IT'S NOT THE DEVIL IT'S GABE NEWELL

STEAM SKIMS 15% OFF OF EVERY MARKET TRANSACTION

30% OFF OF EVERY GAME PURCHASE

THOSE TRANSACTIONS ARE DENOMINATED IN FUN BUCKS THAT YOU ALREADY PAID TAXES ON

EVERY TIME AN ITEM CHANGES HANDS, THE FUN BUCKS DIMINISH AND VALVE KEEPS A FRACTION

YOU CAN'T TAKE OUT THE FUN BUCKS FROM THEIR CIRCUIT LEGALLY, BECAUSE IT'S LITERALLY A FUCKING CASINO

EVERY VALVE GAME IS A STORE FRONT FOR LITERAL FUCKING NFTS AND LOOTBOXES THAT CONTAIN NFTS

AND YOU GUYS KEEP SUCKING THE COCK OF A GUY WHO DOESN'T JUST OWN A YACHT BUT A YACHT COMPANY THAT HE OWNS BECAUSE OF THE ABOVE

It's literally DIGITAL COIN CLIPPING

Yeah fuck them for being responsive to customers, no one should ever acknowledge it

You're being downvoted but there are no good billionaires. They may run good companies but there are no good billionaires.

At least this one person, yes

Yeah yachts arent exactly environmentally friendly either.

Im a big fan of GabeN on a "based takes" basis, but i swear to god if someone directly quotes the piracy thing in like 4 paragraphs or reposts the 480p video interview of it I think im gonna lose my mind

Most VR usage is watching movies in a personal home theatre, the rest is porn and maybe like 5% gaming

The Xbox One is exactly the direction VR should be going to meet the market, but weirdly they're doing the opposite

The Xbox One is exactly the direction VR should be going to meet the market,

wait what?

please expand on this, I'm baffled by what you mean.

We found Tim Sweeney's fediverse account, guys!

Uhm, they just did not thought of enabling the kernel module because it's an embeeded system that has no CD/DVD/BlueRay reader...

KISS

Keep it simple and stupid.

Anf that means dropping feature thay arent in use anymore.

I'll have you know that's a very serious technical term .

The xbone was launched as a media platform first, and gaming console second. Everyone hated that decision. I guess op is suggesting that it makes more sense for vr.

… it’s intended to have stuff added to it. It’s like having a modular pc without the drivers for controllers or a keyboard and mouse.

Also Steam acquired its user base in the first place by vendor lock-in on Quake mods. (Counter-Strike derived from Navy Seals Quake, Team Fortress was originally a Quake mod, and Half-Life is a Quake total conversion originally sold on a CD-ROM in a box.)

Good. It ain't important, until it suddenly is.

No one though of adding a CD drive to a VR apparently, which makes sense considering you are supposed to move with a VR

Cd drives have been usb powered for decades now, people use them on the deck, why wouldn’t they use it on VR? It’s a feature they essentially chose to remove from one device to the next.

I mean, Sony made the ps2 so big in part over the DVD drive.

Do you walk around while playing a game on the steam deck?

I use it to transfer cd ISOs to it while I’m not actively gaming.

Why on earth would you assume it would be used for active gaming? Hardly any games run off the cd anyways, it installs to the HD since it loads in a fraction of the time.

Quebec is more French than France.

after you amortize all the time it took for someone to know that, and all that implies

oooh... I'd forgotten about that wretched hdmi pass through.... yeah that was dumb

Oh man I need to go on the steam forums and ask for speech to text.

"impracticable"...?

How'd that become a word you decided to was a thing?

auto correct haha..

of course it only took 10 minutes, they probably just enabled an existing kernel module.

Whatever drive you use should probably have a massive buffer and anti-skip, like an old school discman

This raises more questions than it answers
