Even entertaining the idea it being anything else is ridiculous.

It’s their own OS running on their own custom handheld. Treating it separately from other linux machines might be odd, but calling it “ridiculous” is being childish.

Yes, I know how Linux works.

The poster above asked for a reason why steamOS might be considered separately to other sisters, and I gave them a possible one.

ARM isn’t the problem. Some games have native ARM ports, and x86 games can be run by Rosetta. It’s not as fast as native, but broadly comparable with the performance of the previous gen Intel chips they replaced.

A bigger problem on macOS is that they dropped support for 32-bit software a few years ago in Catalina. Not a problem with newer games, but it decimated Mac users’ Steam libraries.

And the biggest problem is that Apple just doesn’t give a shit about gaming. Every few years, they claim they’re going to do games, but quickly forget about it. They’ve never put decent video cards in Macs, and never hesitate to throttle hardware if proper cooling would mean a larger enclosure, so AAA games typically arrive on macOS years late, when second-rate or integrated video cards can run them.

If they actually cared, they’d have their own Vulcan implementation. Instead, they’re focused on their own proprietary Metal API.

Basically, Apple and AAA game studios have been ignoring each other for decades.

Why wouldn’t an Arch branch not be Linux?

Because it’s Valve’s own OS. They might consider being first-party sufficient reason to not to lump it in with its third-party cousins.

Hard disagree. Back in its early days, Google was genuinely decent. They competed by building better stuff than everyone else, and that’s it.

There was no decent free email and no free maps before Google. You used to have to pay hundreds for decent mapping software.

The good old Web 2.0 days, when companies were falling over themselves to provide free APIs and see what people could do with them.

Google started going to shit when they brought out Android and everybody started trying to build walled gardens, and went full evil when that moral vacuum Pichai took over.

NGL, I’m surprised macOS was even ahead of Linux given Apple’s deep-seated, cultural disinterest in gaming.

I hear he’s lost a bunch of money. That’s a definite positive in my book.

Yeah. It’s the mechanism that defines a vaccine, not when it’s administered.

It trains you own T-cells to recognise the cancer cells, so it’s a vaccine.

Wäre mit mehr Tiefgaragen gelöst.

Nie im Leben. Es sind jeden Tag bei uns 100 Menschen im Haus auf einem 30x30 Grundstück.

So tief kannste nicht buddeln, um die 50+ Autos von den unter dem Haus zu parken.

Jau. eAuto hilft nicht viel, weil das heutige Auto an sich nur bescheuert ist.

Um die 100KG Mensch etwa 100KM am Tag will man befördern. Und dazu müssen 1,5 Tonnen Stahl 22 Std. am Tag komplett nutzlos im Weg rumstehen? Völlig hirnrissig.

I haven’t touched the thing in three years.

I just remember that it had pace where it should have average speed. That is all.

Now go away. I’m not interested in defending myself to someone like you, who’s been nothing but nasty.

Vor allem, 25 km/h sind auch nicht gerade viel für einen Radfahrer ohne Motor. Geht’s bergab, dann wäre der S-Pedelec-Fahrer mit seinen 25 km/h der Langsame.

Sowas ist ein Velomobil.

Fähnchen haben die meisten Liegeräder. Übersehen wird man trotzdem oft :(

Ich hatte son Ding (aber Dreirad also noch tiefer).

Du wirst auch gerne übersehen (auch mit Fahne) und es kam mir immer besonders beängstigend vor, da du von so einem Rad nicht springen kannst wie von einem Gewöhnlichen. Du siehst auch wenig im Vergleich, da du natürlich auf einem Liegerad nicht über Autos sehen kannst.

Dafür hatte das Ding tatsächlich eingebaute Vorfahrt. Wenn du doch gesehen wirst, halten die Leute gerne an, um zu glotzen.

That’s not the Vivoactive cycling app.

Nah you’re right and this person has obviously never used a Garmin.

You mean that you didn’t bother to read my comment properly before personally attacking me. Let me guess, you’re from Reddit.

I only cycle, so I couldn’t comment on the other apps.

They were Vivoactives. They had pace, not average speed.

Regardless of what the focus of the watch is, the cycling app should show cycling stats.

It’s incredibly low effort to get something so basic wrong.
