I stopped auto-updates when the last death happened. Now I'm exploring Lawnchair.

Yeah I've been just refusing the prompts and using a standard 2FA code app instead.

Except that Windows routinely breaks my passkeys :) Use it to login once, works great. Try again the next day, "Something went wrong". Now I can't use that 2FA; it never starts working again. Then I have extra steps of trying the passkey, having it fail, logging in on another device, removing the passkey, ....

They changed to a random person and gave all abilities to quietly upgrade everyone's installs to the one maintained by the new random person. Then the new random person disabled things that allowed us to verify the app provided is the same one built from the Github repo. And now the new random person doesn't communicate well.

Windows supports creating or using NFS shares?

I do not have a Steam Deck but I do use Linux.

Doesn't it have a Micro SD card slot? That would probably be the least faffing way to copy files.

Aside from that it's just a Linux computer so anything you like; I'm partial to SSH (rsync) for one off or Syncthing to sync folders around. You could also use a magic-wormhole web client, a Windows shared folder (no experience connecting to SMB shares from Linux), or croc (like Magic wormhole but resumable).

Also not a user of pirated game files, but what kind of format are they? If they are EXE files then they won't work when you double click them like on Windows (at least not unless SteamOS went to the effort to configure that). You have to run them with Proton from Steam. I do not know how to do this with things outside Steam but you cauld try adding them to Steam as an external game, then the usual "select Proton" configuration might present itself.

I was worried enough about buying a used car in five years, thanks. Nov I have to worry about having the shit infotainment systems that were disappearing on top of having to pay a subscription to release my parking breaks??

Do you disagree with me thinking it's silly to through around credentials on the internet or just how I communicated it?

I did edit after posting to tone it down some but perhaps not enough?

It's pretty silly to through around credentials.

Here's a video of an OLED TV updating in slow motion. The pixels are on in between updates so it really doesn't matter how fast it's updating it's not going to cause headaches or any of the problems that we used to associate with strobing style displays. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=54E3uUEryZM

No, I meant what I said. The article says "hz" and so do other phone manufacturers offering the same feature. It may be marketing wank or technically incorrect but that's what it's referred to as.

But, hz of a monitor is not like a car blinker or CRT televisions where it's off in between the updates. It is on in between the updates, it's just not the new image. In which case it doesn't matter how slow your performing the updates because the pixels are just on with a static picture in between the updates.

They might mean down to 1hz like some smart phones do, to save battery.

Ditto. I guess they both just hate this particular accent ¯_(ツ)_/¯
