First thing I did when I read that was to put rub something all over my tongue just as a sanity check. When I tried to tell someone they went bonkers trying to defend the school book. From that point on I never took anything school books or adults said as fact without evidence.

The rare resources were not uncovered on the map before the technologies to use them were researched

Keep in mind these terms are not set in stone, the reason you are confused is because people don't use these terms consistently, not because you are wrong.

But

CLI command line interface, is often used as an umbrella term, including for TUI applications. The name comes from that you are typing commands.

TUI terminal user interface, is often used to describe CLI applications that draws menus in the terminal emulator, like ranger file manager.

Is there a minimum speed limit in the US for some roads?

What do you do in a traffic jam? Break the law by driving slower?

Possibly, but these will change on the regular

Preik Nederlandsk med meg!

It's funny the first time I went to Amsterdam, the first thing I noticed was that I could read half of every sign. This is after listening to Dutch language several times and thinking it sounded more klingon than germanic

I agree with your comment, I just want to point out that I am explicitly against capital punishment, without disagreeing with you. And also that the reason for the demographic spread is that this is the demographic spread of the community you are talking about.

Also, while I am against capital punishment, if it had to be used, it should always be nitrogen gas, it is not untested, it is very well tested to cause no pain what so ever to subjects almost suffocating from it.

What chip you got in there? A dorrito?

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

Native vulkan or opengl games doesn't need to translate thees calls, if directx could run. Natively on Linux, it wouldn't have to be translated
