    Jokes on you, because just that you learned to read analogue clocks, makes your brain more plastic. I am sure you know what that word means, but for anyone else, plastic means adaptable. The more things you learn the easier it is to learn more things.





  • What I am reading from your comment is: Norway is not perfect, therefor the argument you were replying to is invalid or diminished. Might not be what you intended, but that’s what it reads like.

    I don’t think oppression of the global south is a valid criticism of Norway. I do think the things Norway needs to improve upon are largely similar to things the US has to improve upon. Only Norway is miles ahead in many of these key aspects.

    Like corruption, most Norwegians want less corruption.

    Equity, most Norwegians think there is not enough equity

    Healt care and welfare, most Norwegians think people don’t get good enough help with low enough friction

    Of course there are more points, and some points don’t have overlap.






  • I used to use i3 as my main desktop, now I run sway. But I haven’t installed i3 or sway on the steam deck. Mainly because I have spent years perfecting my i3wm config, used days converting it over to sway, then used months tweaking it. And I just don’t want to do that again on my steam deck.

    But here is what I would try if I didn’t have two kids and lots of responsibilities.

    I’d try installing sway, or i3wm if I couldn’t get that going in an arch Linux distrobox. Arch Linux just because I am familiar with it, and it’s very maluable. Pick which you are most familiar with if you want. And then I would launch that as a non steam app.

    Then what I am dredding the most comes next. Configuring the window manager. I’d take my current sway config, or my current i3wm config and just rip out what is not needed. And plan and craft keybinds together with a steam input configuration… I think it would be possible to make a very comfortable and usable configuration.

    the main thing I think valve should do to make desktop more usable is to detect when a keyboard input is in focus and show the on screen keyboard automatically. And also show move it to the top if it means you would see the text input field. Or maybe use some gamescope magic to move the viewport you are looking at the desktop so that you always can see the text input. Or some apps like terminal emulators would have to be resized.

    It won’t be perfect, at least without improvements to gamescope. But it can be quite interesting
