I'm sure they are, but but I think their effort is targeted at standalone headsets and won't translate much to wired headsets.

Wireless headsets do have fewer issues on Linux, from what I've read. A lot of the stuff I'm missing like passthrough and boundaries are probably handled by the headset instead of the pc.

In my experience steamvr works but is unstable and has really bad performance compared to windows. (Constant stuttering even in lighter games like pistol whip) Motion smoothing doesn't work and it feels like there's some input delay which is not acceptable for vr.

I've switched over to monado via envision, which loses the steamvr overlay and is very unpolished. (no camera passthrough and no boundary display, though both seem in development) Games play correctly with reasonable performance, which is what matters.

I wouldn't recommend linux vr in general right now, if a friend wanted to try my headset I'd probably boot my windows partition. (Original htc vive with a 9070xt, so no excuse for steamvr's linux performance)

This is my setup, though my phone is set to only run syncthing while plugged in and on wifi. My server is always online and taking backups, but if it's down all of my devices still have their own copy.

There are a few specific items that came from limited time challenges and haven't been available since, those are the now 'free' items.

Has anybody ever called tariffs his only or even primary playing card? I know Trump's a big fan of them, but they have nothing to do with his election interference, free speech suppression, weaponized justice department, or directly putting federal money in his own pocket. Tariffs are how he's raising prices and destroying the US's international relationships and standing, but he has plenty of other options for that.

Just booted up to check, 245s for me and I don't think I could do it again now.

Having a great time with the Banjo-Kazooie recomp. Cleared everything up to Click Clock Wood so far.

Some of that variance might come from which ones are makemkv compatible.

I wonder if this is the start of another effort to defuse a term by throwing it at everything until the definition gets dulled down to 'something I don't like'.

IMO it's the opposite, what exists now is less than a server browser. I'd call it a custom games browser instead. Whichever one you pick will be on the official servers.

I agree it isn't how the industry is now, but it isn't going to improve if everyone just accepts it.
