I use it as second monitor, so I don't game on it. Now that I think about it, though, it might be fun to play gameboy or DS emulators on it.

I used to do something similar. Passing GPU between host and VM without rebooting is a major pain in the ass. What I did instead was had a Linux hypervisor and 3 VMs (Linux, Windows, and MacOS). I would swap between the 3 VMs, and they each had access to my GPU. It was fun to set up and somewhat convenient, but got really annoying as it was my only workstation at the time.

I would highly suggest to just accept dual-booting and if it takes too long, get a faster SSD and/or faster RAM.

I've since gone Linux full-time, and I have no complaints. None of the games I can no longer play would be worth having Windows to deal with. I thought I would miss them at first, but I'm happy playing what's available.

You're right, that is extremely confusing

Good. Keeping it the same means that the original Steam Deck will remain a target device for game developers for longer.

well, yeah, Element X is in pre-alpha. Of course it doesn't have feature parity with Element.

I love my pinecil. I have a ts80p as well and the pinecil is just better.

It has sleep tracking and it works okay.

I've had good luck with the Bangle.js 2. I get 3-4 weeks of battery life using it for time, weather, notifications, alarms, and as a heart rate monitor every once in a while.

This is insane. I will be first in line for the kit when/if it becomes available

Yeah, I got stuck on secrets management. I just could not get network manager to keep my WiFi passwords. I'll probably go back and try again at some point.

Trying to configure Sway in NixOS. I gave up and just use KDE Plasma. I do miss using Sway from when I used Arch, though.
