If I did that half my neighbors would own my devices in a week because they like transmitting open access points for setup purposes. I just connect them anyway and then just block them from outbound access at the router if I want to restrict them. That way I can be sure. Then I can use my Homeassistant server to control them from behind the firewall locally if they have that capability.

Yeah but with Steam Deck you're not forced to use it. It's an unlocked x86-64 compatible handheld PC. Install whatever you want.
No, it's great. It means you can make it do anything. You misconstrue my meaning.
You don't even have it game on it if you don't want to. Use it as a server 😂
Other portable console makers: proprietary shit, locked down OSes, DRM embedded in the device at boot, custom/strange architectural choices, walled gardens
Valve: eh, put a fuckin' normal ass gaming PC in a tiny box with joysticks and call it a day.
It kinda does matter if you want updated drivers and packages and stuff. I use Debian because I love its bare bones, generic approach and I'm used to it, but I'd never recommend it for anyone playing the latest games unless they like cruising five years in the past.
I'm not sure that word means what you think it means, Elon. Regulating scam sites is a pretty typical government thing.
Russia can just retreat hundreds of kilometers further east and carry on.
Into what, a wasteland full of snow and bears? Russia might be massive, but it works like Canada. Everybody is huddled into very specific regions for a reason.
Exactly, that means it hasn't infected my entire system and is constantly connected and phoning home about my computer usage and browsing habits all day. I can just play Skifree and Minesweeper and not worry about a damn thing.
It's hard to overcome the Hurd problem though. Although it would be fascinating to see how it would diverge on the design of the Linux kernel. How much can you still act like Linux while not being Linux? Or would it just be a direct algorithmic translation, basically doing the same processes under the hood with the same architecture? I'm sure there's more than a few things Linux is doing in C that the Rust compiler would frown upon.
Windows 3.11 that is. The last pure Windows there was.
They are anything but. Somebody with a laptop and a $20 USB SDR stick can see every piece of text flying though the air.
