I’m not gonna argue, cause honestly we’ve seen way too many companies follow this same shitty pattern.
Still, I’m hopeful! Valve has been an absolute bro thus far - if the steam deck is anything to go by, I think we’ve got a lot to look forward to!
It does! I believe I read it in one of the rock paper shotgun articles.
I think they still aren’t even selling the OLED steam deck globally, so I’m not getting my hopes up 🥲
Uhhhhhhh saywhanow?? Where you seein these rumors?! They reputable??!?
Dont play with my heart! 😭 I would DIE for a new Half Life VR - Alyx was FUCKING incredible!!!
I wonder if they might be able to add hand tracking later, since they’ve already got the cameras that’d to the tracking?
VR proper content Like what? If it’s a full blown desktop environment with steamVR, isn’t that as VR proper as it gets? 🤔 not being critical, trying to get what you mean! 🙂
no hardware upgrade As for GPU/CPU upgrades, I think if you wanna do heavy VR games like alyx it makes sense to stream from its dedicated dongle, no? Also they’ve talked about the ability to upgrade lenses and headstrap-audio and other stuff - so, besides the main board, it is actually sorta upgradable! 🙂
But then, isn’t that kinda where linux was at before steamOS kicked this revolution off?? Like, I had kinda dabbled in various linux distros here and there prior to steamOS and was always left feeling like it lacked complete polish - VR, gaming, easy app installs (outside the terminal, for normies)… All that has never seemed so well rounded – until steamOS blessed me with KDE, and since then I’ve mained Debian w/ KDE on all my machines (hopefully I can even main deb on my phone, one day!!)
Point is= maybe if a company like valve (or even valve themselves) pulls a similar approach with RISC-V that we’ve seen them do with steamOS, we aren’t wrong to hope for the same sort of outcome for it as well!
But, that’s just a dream I suppose 😅 here’s hoping!!! 🤞🤞
Yeah, they have a while series of those! Extremely worth the watch 🤣🤣
Yeah dude I totally agree! Mods are great in their own right, but there’s something to be said for the insane variety of gameplay you can get outta the base game!
It gets worse. This is a bit further down on that article=
Jesus fucking Christ.
That. Is fucking. Amazing.
This might be the single reason I buy vacuums of this brand on the future.
Fuuck duck 🤣🤣🤣 genuinely cried laughing at this! Thank you 🙇♂️
TONIIIIIIIIIGHT I’LL FLYYYY
Real Linux is definitely the way - but GSI Roms are totally capable of microG if I’m not mistaken! On that github’s FAQ page it mentions the FLOSS version comes packed with f-droid; microG can be installed from there and works fine - it doesnt need to be bundled in the ROM! 🙂
Or just stick with the vanilla gsi & you’ve got bare aosp. Throw F-droid on there, pull down microG and bam!
THANK YOU! Such a glaring hole in graphene os, I dont know how it doesnt get talked about more!
This. If it isn’t 0 effort, people won’t do it.
Saw someone else mention sailfish! There is also PostmarketOS I’ve recently seen footage of it running on a OnePlus phone and it looks way more stable than I’d expected!!
Edit= apparently just 2 oneplus phones and sparse other phones are supported, and stability varies per device =/ you can check here to see if your phone’s supported!
Dude holy shit, modular emmc AND RAM, AND modem??! This looks sick as hell!!
RIP halo, my favorite competitive shooter ever 😭 infinite is such an absolute botch.
Holy shit this comment succinctly depicts exactly what has me rock hard for both the frame and the machine.
Fuck the bastard big tech corpos, and gobless lord GabeN! May he revolutionize the home computing landscape! Down with microsoft!!
