This is making me realize that I have never encountered this equivalent of a blue screen of death on Linux.

Ah that makes much more sense. I think I crossed my wires. You mentioned backing up the Minecraft worlds and so I thought "deduplicated backups... so borg."

I appreciate your explanation.

Is there a link?

Also, how does this compare to something like Borg?

This is a good workaround, but there is still a bug here. When this setting is unchecked, clicking a gif should make it play. But that functionality is no longer working.

And if you're wrong, the other shoe just probably hasn't dropped yet.

I've found that alternative reddit frontends bypass this. That and I believe changing the URL to old reddit.

Of course, this will only work until (if?) Reddit is successful in removing old reddit and preventing third party front-end.

Ubuntu/Canonical is the Microsoft of Linux distros. It's no surprise they were the choice for WSL.

Ubuntu has been forcing decisions on users and embedding advertisements for a long time.

Examples that immediately come to mind...

  • When that Amazon search was embedded into the app launcher search.
  • These sorts of self promotions.
  • Quietly installing snaps instead of debs when using apt install

That's awesome. Thanks for updating. Looking forward to this hitting stable!

I have all those plugins too, please report back if it works!

Oh that's unfortunate. I have the LCD model and didn't realize it can't do this due to hardware.

Sort of, if you mean the controller tools one. I believe when that was working it would show battery percentage. The Bluetooth plugin does not. So this is more general.

It also brings the feature of waking the deck via Bluetooth which is super convenient if you use it docked.

I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but they have been making a lot of changes targeted at the docked experience lately, and I have a theory that is because they are getting close to announcing a Steam Deck Controller.

For those who unfortunately have to use Windows laptops for work, there is a workaround. Unplug the laptop before putting it to sleep/hibernate. That's it. Super irritating they won't fix it, but not surprising, too busy trying to shove (more) ads into the start menu.
