How to record or stream SteamOS 3.X in gamescope (Gaming Mode)

Here is another method that uses Flatpak and obs-vkcapture, which don't meet my personal needs but are very likely to be useful for you. In the comments there there is also an obs-gstreamer method.

Here is another method for recording that has its own GUI for Gaming Mode built with Decky Loader.

Force SteamOS to behave very much like Arch Linux

Key phrase: very much like, not identical. Always treat this as more unstable than Manjaro and only expect support with it in my comments section here.

1. Set a password (if you haven't already) and disable read-only rootfs (yes this means after updating SteamOS [not Steam Client] this will all be deleted and you will have to do all this again if you want

Booting the Steam Deck recovery image

https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/1B71-EDF2-EB6D-2BB3

SteamOS runs a custom grub to cater it's needs for it's A/B partition design. So far the said custom grub does not boot for me on ovmf/intel uefi (maybe it boots on amd? some said they managed to just rufus the image and boot it)

skip to https://gist.github.com/Kethen/698cfa8cf387e131ebd36fbfbfe9272e#gamescope-and-non-amd-gpu if it just boots for you

Upon closer inspection the official bootloader does load some kind of amd firmware before booting the kernel

Welcome to another tutorial of "What the f*ck is Oracle doing to my machine without me asking for it?"

I will cover in this guide how to correctly setup your machine to get rid of the stupid Oracle's agent on your machine, and even pimp your machine a little bit. You can't say no to that! :D Anyhow, let's start right now!

Just a warning!!!

When you create a machine, I HIGHLY recommend that you grab the SSH keys that Oracle gently ask you to also take. SSH keys are much more secure than passwords and you'll drastically avoid potential security issue with SSH. Oracle will automatically take care to refuse any password connection (Only allowing SSH keys connection) by then.

Minecraft on Raspberry Pi cluster with metrics

Ever wanted to put your Rapsberry Pi cluster to great use? Our team is working remotely, so we started to play Minecraft. I decided I would host the Minecraft server on my Raspberry Pi cluster. This gist will guide you through the steps I took to get a k3s cluster up with k3sup and later installed Minecraft as well as metrics exporter and Prometheus Operator

Why?
