To me, if Valve wants Linux multiplayer to have a future, they need to demonstrate that they can develop a good Linux anti-cheat solution.

That's much easier said than done. But I hope it's a problem that they're working on. Otherwise, it's going to limit the potential of the Steam Deck and other future Valve Linux hardware.

It was probably incompetence more than malice but T-Mobile customer service incorrectly told me multiple times that I was not allowed to pay off my phone balance early to unlock it. I'm on US Mobile now and I'll never go back to postpaid.

Search for portable Jellyfin media server projects. It looks like there's a few out there.

If you're going to use this in a car, it needs to be as simple as plugging in a single device and powering it on. An over-engineered solution is going to quickly turn into a headache.

I'm definitely interested in a modern Steam Machine and I wish them luck. But it's tough to manage the logistics of crowdfunded hardware if you're inexperienced and I've been burned before. Hopefully they can handle it.

You do. It automatically reboots after applying rpm-ostree updates.

You're right and I'm not saying that I recommend settling it to permissive. You should understand the risks involved.

I've been using Fedora CoreOS as my main server in my home lab for a couple years now and have been very happy with it. You still get the convenience of automatic atomic updates and you also have the flexibility of being able to install whatever additional Fedora packages you need with rpm-ostree.

I installed Docker Engine and docker-compose from upstream. You should be able to set SELinux to permissive mode if you need to so it doesn't enforce any policies.

They stopped the flash sales after they implemented their refund policy.

I've been listening to it in my car over the last few weeks. I'm really enjoying it so far.

That's just crazy talk. Crack some skulls and get Half-Life 2 out the door Mr. Newell. Everyone knows that you buy boxed PC games at the mall like normal people.

I will stay motivated for only $45 billion.
