Yes, you can do this manually, and actually play video games from steam. There are also a few apps that facilitates this by having configured this already. Like winlator. Sadly maintaining something like this is huge work, so winlator doesn’t ship video drivers for my Samsung S25, but there are some other similar programs, like the Chinese spyware gamehub. Gamehub is aimed at spying on you, and letting you run steam games with cloud saves and all.

Thankfully, someone is maintaining a stripped down version of gamehub, that removes spyware functions. This is called gamehub lite.

What’s the performance. Its not amazing, but its not bad either. Haven’t tested much, only hades 2 runs in full speed, without getting my phone hot.

Also on the same chip as my phone, read dead redemption 1 for PC runs faster than the newly released android port of the game.

These examples are not very demanding games, other games will very much be a ymmw situation

This is about Snapdragon X1 Elite, not Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. These two are completely different from each other on a support perspektiv, even if they share a lot of architecture.

The 8 Elite Gen 5, I don’t know the status on Linux, but Qualcomm has a few day old blog post talking about what they have upstreamed for day 1 support into the Linux kernel https://www.qualcomm.com/developer/blog/2025/10/same-day-snapdragon-8-elite-gen-5-upstream-linux-support

Lastly, when it comes down to device by device, they can have vastly different glue logic (hardware), so I guess we will wait and see for device by device. But it would be cool seeing a raspberry like 8 elite gen 5 board, for hopefully cheap (it won’t be cheap in this artificially inflated market, angry face)

Like family portraits?

Cool, here’s what you need to do a reinstall https://fedoraproject.org/

They were not successful in their goal when breaking the law, so this argument is that therefor they are innocent

No, you are supposed to stop reading after the headline, and then make a comment, not read the whole article.

To save the whales you also need transparent aluminum https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_oxynitride

To be fair, back before ML natural language programming, non-tech folks often assumed coding was just telling the computer what you want in plain English. Today that’s what vibecoders do

It should work, maybe not out of the box. But if you make sure KVM is enabled. And you have docker, docker-compose, freerdp and iptables installed. And you have added your user to the docker group.

Then the app should work

While I respect that you want more apps you use into the same package manager. I may be wrong, but its my understanding that they dont accept docker containers on flathub. I don’t even know it is possible to run docker inside a flatpak or if its possible if it would conflict with docker on the host. Docker or podman requires kernel features like cgroup which I belive flatpak sandboxes away.

At the very least you need docker or podman and kvm and pass these from the host into the flatpak

I really like having all or most apps in one or max two package managers on my computer. But I think this is a case where you might have to concede installing this piece of software without a flatpak

Is it because of the Mel Gibson cosplay?

I dont think reading Asimov would help for most people. I think most people will just not get the point of anything unless you spell it out

People not getting the message is the default I think, for everything, like the song Mother knows best from Disneys Tangled, how many mothers say, see mother knows best

NixOS might not be for you, it is horrible if you don’t want to adapt to it. But if this happened on NixOS, you would just reboot into the state of your computer before you ran the update. Or if it’s just a program like VLC you could just close VLC switch to the previous generation and open VLC again

Playing with Talos Linux is one of the reasons I switched to NixOS on my main computer, I loved the concept

Vim user here, what is that? Like a konami code?

He means running xwayland in rootfull mode as the one app run in cage

Install comma, and run commands without installing

NixOS user here. This doesn’t come out of the box, but I append a comma before the command I want to run without installing, I can run the command without installing.

Yes it’s technically downloaded (if not cached there already) in the nix store, but this is (optionally automatically) cleaned up regularly, for store items that doesn’t have a generation (profile, think version of your configuration) that depends on it.

Out the box, you can run a command that opens a shell up with the packages you specify, but comma uses a database to know the executeable names for packages (you get to pick if multiple matches), similar to the command not found function in other distros.

Sorry for hijacking your comment, just wanted to say something cool about a cool distro, which isn’t suitable for everyone, but I hope that can improve in the future because nixos is niceos

I have that one too, but my alias is called icat
