Today I played control on my new linux daily driver - through steam link on my TV! (lemmy.giftedmc.com)

I‘m pretty excited, ngl! I‘ve recently finished my daily driver and put ubuntu 23.04 on it. 3060ti (don’t buy nvidia! Just dont) and an i9, 32gigs of ram. Streaming on an apple tv with a ds4 controller.

All settings maxed with raytracing ultra (did hitch a bit like 30-40 min into the game, either bigger rooms or heat buildup, gotta check that) turned off raytracing, everything was fine again.

The game is so cinematic and 3rd person lends itself to controllers imo.

But I wanted to share this because it blew my mind how far linux gaming has come. You don’t need a game console. You can just run it on your tv over fkin lan. Crazy!

No, this only really serves one purpose which is utilizing your TV or other distant monitor as another screen for your laptop or desktop.

The Ethernet wire does not connect to the rest of your network. It only goes from the transmitter to the receiver.

What you're describing is possible however, via some self-hosted services on a server for instance.

Ok! Thanks for clarifying! :)
