Boiling Steam ☛ Star Fetchers: Escape From Pork Belly - Review on Linux
Svavelstickan has been working on Start Fetchers: Episode 1 for a few years so far, and it might take them a bit more to finish. In the meanwhile they released this short fighting game, Star Fetchers: Escape From Pork Belly as an apéritif to help with the waiting. I really enjoyed the Star Fetchers pilot, so I bought Star Fetchers: Escape From Pork Belly as soon as I received the email of availability from Steam. The story continues some time after your actions in the first game.

Radka Janek: Steam Deck experience on GPD Win 4 with Fedora Linux
I tried other gaming oriented GNU/Linux distributions and found them all to be… well, to be frank, bloated. I don’t need Lutris preinstalled, I don’t use it. Just like I don’t need 20 other tools or launchers or managers installed, with services running and draining my battery. Furthermore, I love the ability to simply “tab out” of my steam gamescope and enjoy full desktop environment.
And so I’ve come to the conclusion, that the best thing I can do is to simply start from scratch. I’ve got a little video showcasing what my install looks like, the below is the minimum you’d need to take care of to get something similar.

CubicleNate ☛ SteamDeck Internal Screen Undetected
A strange thing happened recently where my son’s SteamDeck was not detecting the internal screen. I tried all the usual, “hold the power button down for 30 seconds” bit and even tried my touchscreen fix routine, all without any success. This was exceedingly irritating as I am not sure what even caused this to happen.
