More-or-less bog standard amd64 with amd graphics? Assuming the generic AMD video drivers work FreeBSD should be able to get to a graphical UI out of the box. Might not have controller or gyro drivers, but a keyboard and mouse should work fine.
Now I have a project. Thanks, Droechai…
That’s glorious. Now I want more information.
Yup. If there’s a radio or some other permanent network connection involved no software from any country is trustworthy. We’d be right to put Chinese software under scrutiny. We’d also be right to put US, French, Israeli, or Japanese software under scrutiny. Those other countries would be just as right to put Canadian software under a microscope.
I don’t disagree with your main point, but I think the Mario sprite thing is just as easily explained by technical limitations as artistic ones.
Nah, the farts would be behind her if she were using them for thrust.
Hot take: There is not now, nor has there ever been, a non-janky OS.
Some Linux distributions are absolutely less janky than Windows at the moment, though, absolutely.
I haven’t used a mac in a few years, but it was pretty jank-free the last time I tried it, but I’m certain the situation there has gotten worse.
Work requires Ubuntu. Still with Kubuntu. Works, doesn’t spy on me.
Brothers.
Oh, I didn’t even mention the towns we have that are named after much smaller places. Our Calgary is much bigger than the original, and I also live near a Colonsay, which while tiny is about double the size of the one in Scotland.
I look at banana flavour the way I look at blue raspberry
All of North America is weird like that. I live within an easy drive of Stockholm, Kandahar, Amsterdam, Strasbourg, Aberdeen, Hague, and Moose Jaw.
Is that still true? IIRC it got a lot better post-release. It runs fine for me on what is now modest hardware.
I love that the goat sacrifice is before replacing the cable…
The secret is adding beef to the vegan steak.
I don’t think pew pews are real yet. Biathalon uses bang bangs. Or maybe boom booms. Jury’s still out.
I skipped that step and went straight to cameras in the toilet pointed up.
One step closer to a solar powered laser beam guitar.
I don’t think you were hostile, you just have a different experience than others in this thread. At my workplace we design hardware and make embedded systems. Depending on which part of the system you’re working on you’ll either never leave Visual Studio or exclusively use the unix command line. Both groups are absolutely serious professionals. Not every workplace is like mine; most will have only one of the two groups.
The one near me plays the 4 bar “Westminster Quarters”. It plays one bar for each quarter hour. The full song on the hour, and bangs out the hour.
… no. I was dead serious about trying FreeBSD on the Steamdeck. FreeBSD supports almost all mainstream hardware you’d see on a normal desktop. Figured it’d be similar for the steamdeck. So now my weekend project is to try out booting FreeBSD 16 off a USB stick on my steamdeck.
After a small amount of duckduckgoing I found that it somewhat works already. GPU hardware is detected but can’t initialize. That’s a reasonable starting point for someone like me who isn’t afraid of kernel-level code :/
