      I think eventually things like this will push out consoles. And I think Sony and Microsoft are planning for it. Performance is flattening out across platforms and architectures. And architectures are all seemingly moving in the direction of ARM.

        you can do this with any pc as long as none of the parts have issue in a linux distro. There's no need to go out of your way to use a piece of crap.

        I used to browse hackaday for days on end when I was a kid but "here's a guy that installed a linux distro on hardware that he didn't expect to work and it worked" isn't the tier of article that drew me in back then, and is also a couple decades behind the curve for that kind of linux news.

                SteamOS will support 32bit games in the future. (Fedora are ditching 32bit)

                  I think that’s still undecided, as yet

                    I don't think the proposal for fedora dropping 32 bit has gone through yet and given amount of folks saying don't I don't think the proposal will go through.

                      Microsoft has absolutely been preparing for the end of traditional consoles more or less since the flop of the Xbox One. Their entire push a few years back to make "Everything Xbox" was a bit mistimed and disloyal to their console war cultists but they're right that it's the natural end point.

                      I think we'll probably see streaming games from their servers reoccur in popularity pretty soon, as much as I'm not a fan of it, because it's the total end point for non tech savvy consumers, they just pay a subscription, get a controller which can connect to the TV or phone and download an app, no hardware required. Meanwhile every consumer who is resisting the death of tech literacy (everyone else), is going in this direction. The physical console will reduce in popularity year by year as it fills a niche that nobody needs anymore.

                      That being said, the popularity of the switch and steam deck interests me, because it's a third direction away from traditional consoles that I'd not have predicted.

                          It's arch...

                          Yeah but its downside right now is that it doesn't really support latest tech, since it is not based on latest Linux. Wish they would change that because I seriously consider SteamOS for my next gaming PC.

                              It's Arch frozen at particular point with packages you did not choose. I honestly don't think the distro base counts at that point.

                                  I don’t think game streaming is ever going to take off the way they want it to, especially when things like the switch exist. Internet is just too crappy in too many places for it to ever be a better experience than a console, or in many cases a phone.
