Steam Deck now shipping across Asia, plus a new Steam Deck Stable Client update
We're about to see a whole lot more people gaming on Linux, with a shiny Steam Deck arriving at the door of many people across Asia.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
Waving at Steam, hello, I would like one in Australia too one day, hopefully before it is an antique 😉
We're not even allowed to reserve one yet 😞
Good Moeworning. Happy #Caturday!
Whenever I try to cook anything, Sammy likes to ride my shoulder. I'll enjoy it now because at some point, she's going to be too big.

Now imagine if Mastodon didn’t exist and this was happening.…
Aren’t we lucky that some guy in Germany decided to spend his own time, money, and effort to build it?
Hopefully we’ll get lucky again…
Or, you know, maybe we can finally consider supporting tech that’s in the common good from the common purse. And fund organisations and long-term development, not just ad-hoc academic “projects” that get abandoned the moment the money is gone.

The Future of Internet Regulation at the European Parliament
A brief write-up of my talk at the EU Parliament last week with embedded videos of my talk and a link to my slides.Aral Balkan
Unless I’m mistaken, not until it was up and running. Please correct me if I’m wrong @Gargron. Did you receive any EU funding for Mastodon at the start and is there an ongoing/permanent funding stream from them that’s not based on implementing certain features/specific deliverables?
(Because there should be.)
@Gargron @violetathena @NGIZero
I encourage you to get more funding because you need to face growth, exponential growth. And all on AWS will not make it on the long run.
@Gargron @violetathena @NGIZero Thanks, Eugen.
That’s exactly the issue I’ve raised twice at the European Parliament now. That we need funding for organisations not features and we need it at the start, not after it’s impossible to ignore that something works and is being used (because not everyone can or should have to undertake the burden of getting to that point by themselves. Some of us do, but if we require that as a rite of passage we’re going to limit the potential for alternatives.)

Valve hit a home run with the first year of Steam Deck
What an absolutely exceptional first year Valve had with the Steam Deck, and it continues to be my main way to play games now.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
I've completed more games on my Steam Deck in the few months I've had it than I have in the past two years on my gaming PC.
Has Valve released sales numbers for the deck?
