Haven’t tried these out on a calibrated six year old, but some that I liked which might be in the ballpark are Tinykin, a Short Hike, Smurfs Vileleaf, Loddlenaut, Lil Gator Game, Little Kitty Big City, Costume Quest, What the Golf/Car.

Luanti is all the minecraft a kid needs these days

I think the xray is from ifixit? I nudged trimming it until the port and volume up button lined up just so.

I don’t think that systemd has a whole lot of sleep-management architecture that does what you want? What it does have is the ability to do “suspend-then-hibernate”, which would suspend for some set time, wake up, and flip over to hibernating. I’ve set that up on Debian (not too hard), Ubuntu (pure hell), haven’t tried on SteamOS.

What you want is technically possible without changing the hardware or firmware, but I think it would take an unreasonable amount of systemd coding.

I don’t think that dxvk is a thing that you’re supposed to pull in on its own. Any recent version of Proton (and especially ProtonGE) brings its own up-to-date copy of it.

Or, you might want to go to the studio’s original title, Sunshine Heavy Industries. It’s pretty much just building spaceships out of legos.

It’s more than enough to make HL3 a Steam exclusive. And make it run well on the Deck. If Valve really wants to gild the lily, they could put a little side-story just for the Deck’s controls. A follow-up to Aperture Desk Job, perhaps.

If y’all want your own copy of Tunic, it is available in a new itch.io charity bundle.

What’s wrong with “cp -r”?

As far as “having a second SD slot to facilitate the copy” goes, Anker makes decent card readers.

Try messing with ~/.var/app/io.treetubeapp.FreeTube/config/FreeTube/settings.db , in the “bounds” line.

It doesn’t look like Freetube had a --fullscreen option, so you can’t tell steam to just do that.

Steam’s “immutable” system isn’t that bad. It will revert a lot of stuff during OS updates, but Stable doesn’t go through that very often. I put all of my changes into a shell script and reapply it when that happens.

Add anything with sonic in the name. Like SRB2:Persona.

The best place to buy Samsung cards is from Samsung’s site, the best place to buy Sandisk cards is from … Western Digital. Sometimes they even have sales that approximate Amazon.

It’s pretty safe to assume that you will get a real card from the horse’s mouth.

Apple’s solution is to integrate a heating strip with the glue. Put some power into it, and the glue warms up and releases.

I wouldn’t condemn Anker after whatever IoT camera thing, everything in that space sucks. As far as I know Anker makes good power bricks, and I’ll trust their stuff as long as it isn’t in The Cloud.

For such a “stripped down” OS to fit in a 5GB / partition, it is very funny that they included printing but just left it turned off.

I picked up a cheap Lumia as the whole WinPhone thing was winding up. They were actually quite nice. The whole winphone project must have been too low-key for the usual Microsoft Management to stick their noses into, and left competent people running the show.

If WinPhone had actually caught on, I’m sure that some asshole manager would have taken over and turned it into yet another Windows 11. But for a brief moment, MS made a good OS. With no apps.

Finally, something I can read VN text on

If an iPad ran SteamOS, it would choke on running out of memory before Steam was done loading.

If you want to read within Linux, Papers is touchscreen-friendly. KOreader is probably the best touchscreen experience, once you get past its awkward but incredibly configurable interface.

My eyes are too old to read on the Deck’s screen, personally.
