All Linux installations use Proton, DXVK and Wine to play Windows games. That is the biggest power of the Steam Deck. The rest is just bonus.
You can launch Big Picture mode on any pc with Steam installed for ease of use with a controller…
Software-wise, if you are using a Linux installation with KDE interface, on an AMD CPU and AMD GPU, and are using a wayland session with gamescope to play games, it is very VERY close to the Steam Deck and you are benefiting from all the optimizations that were made for Steam Deck. Bonus points if the hardware is Ryzen 3000 series and Radeon RX 6000 series.
You probably saw this, but Nexus Mods are asking feedback from Linux users, not just Steam Deck. Because, you know, apart from the sticks, size and touch pads, Steam Deck is just another Linux machine.
Just install Linux on your laptop or desktop.
If you want a hassle-free setup, get Linux Mint, or if you use Nvidia, Pop!_OS.
To get as close to the Steam Deck setup as reasonable, get EndeavourOS with KDE. It is Arch-based and may require maintenance though.
Kubuntu is a good middle ground, with the same desktop interface as SteamOS (KDE) but also pretty hassle-free setup.
Most of (what we call) Linux OSes are formally GNU/Linux. GnuCash is as close as it gets to “made for Linux”. If you don’t want an accounting-specific application, but just generic spreadsheets, check out LibreOffice.
I highly recommend GnuCash for accounting though: a fellow board member cleaned up an org’s accounting by putting it all in GnuCash, where it was a bunch of error-prone Excel sheets before. That really made it easier to keep track and to do it right.
A quick Google shows Quickbooks to be cloud-based accounting software. For FOSS accounting, GnuCash exists so you could try that (it can also run on Windows and macOS). However, it’s unlikely to have feature parity so if you like the added convenience that Quickbooks offers, see if you can use Quickbooks in a browser. Being cloud-based, they would probably build a browser version before building a Linux desktop app. If they don’t and you need to run a Windows desktop app on Linux, you can probably do this using Bottles (which uses Wine and Proton under the hood, the tech that enables the Steam Deck).

Plasma fan and aspiring Cosmonaut, though I have Swayed in the past and have a tendency to get Hypr.
Maybe these are only the newly blocked websites?

Gotta thank the Kremlin for making a list of good European news websites. On second thought, weird that they block cnews.fr. The Dutch and German lists make sense though
It’s a new desktop by the Pop!_OS team, System76. They previously used Gnome extensions but to make a snoother, more performant experience, they have been working on an entirely new desktop environment + toolkit, all in Rust. They call it Cosmic.
The new Cosmic Store is super fast and smooth, perhaps the fastest package manager GUI on Linux desktop.
Check out this speed comparison against GNOME Software: (Cosmic starts around 1:10) https://files.catbox.moe/mzz004.mp4
If you’re on Pop!_OS 22.04 you can already install it with sudo apt install cosmic-store
.
There’s a few other COSMIC apps available but the store is the most usable one right now IMO. The text editor is fun too though. If you’re on another Debian based OS, you can probably add the system76 repo and then install it.
The US Navy retired the AIM-54 Phoenix in 2004, and the Tomcat kept flying without the Phoenix as a recon and strike platform until 22 Sep 2006.
The Iranians have also been strapping Hawk SAMs to the Tomcat. Can’t seem to upload pics now so have a look: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=iriaf+f-14+hawk&t=brave&iax=images&ia=images
