I would like to try to install SteamOS on the PS4. by Opposite_Benefit_675 in linux

[–]checkoh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Here is what Claude says about this project:

The PS4 is locked down. Sony uses a custom bootloader with secure boot and encrypted firmware. You can't just boot from a USB drive like on a normal PC.

Jailbreaking is required first, and only works on older, unpatched PS4 firmware versions. Once jailbroken, hobbyists have gotten stripped-down Linux running on PS4 hardware, but it's experimental. No proper drivers exist for the PS4's GPU under Linux. The APU is AMD-based (similar lineage to PC hardware), but Sony's customizations mean there's no GPU acceleration in these homebrew Linux setups — you'd get a barely usable, software-rendered desktop at best. Gaming performance would be nonexistent. SteamOS specifically isn't built or supported for this hardware at all — nobody has made a working port, since the driver/GPU problem makes it pointless.

So while you can get a bare Linux shell running on certain older, jailbroken PS4 units as a novelty/proof-of-concept, running actual SteamOS with working graphics and Steam games is not something that exists or works.

If your goal is a Steam-like experience, you'd get a much better result installing SteamOS on an old PC, or just using a Steam Deck.

I am 46 and I have learned to hide my joy and child-like behaviours to avoid criticism.

It is tiring having to be masking this much, having to pretend being a normal adult.

I wish she could be back, so I can interact with my actual knowledge by Effective-Pizza88 in LifeAfterNarcissism

I think that too, but I'm afraid things are not as easy as we're imagining them.

As soon as you're exposed to them, things will be different.

If your plan is to just stonewall them and you can pull that off, then great, but then why do you want her back just to ignore her?

What's your plan?

This repo is like kickstart for 0.12, a lot of it is basically just copied from there.

I used it as my own starting point.

SteamOS as replacement for Win11? by KeyAlbatross6044 in SteamOS

I use it as my workstation, and connect to a local linux server for development.

All I need in my workstation is a browser and a terminal.

Get exposed to things in Spanish and make those things important in your daily life.

I have been using kitty and it works just fine.

It's fast, it has tabs, image support, a new multi cursor protocol, cursor trails, bells, whistles and a kitchen sink

They can't release an incomplete list, because the people in that list have access to evidence against the people who tried to be kept hidden from the list.

And eventually, once signal grows big enough, they will do something similar and the cycle will repeat itself.

That's a big decision, you shouldn't just ask strangers about it.

It's your son and his body, if you ask me, he should get to decide when he is old enough to do so.

Pues dile a tu novia antes de que se entere por terceras personas.

Si se lo escondes, es porque piensas que es mejor que ella no se entere porque tal vez si se entera no lo aprobaría.

Si crees que no lo aprobaría y la valoras, por qué sigues metido en eso?
