    I use a ps5 controller for all my gaming needs and it works great on Linux (Kubuntu/Nobara) and Steam Deck. I use hardwired when playing on my Linux desktop, but when playing on my Steam Deck it’s over Bluetooth while docked. Still works perfectly fine. I even played Crosscode with my controller just fine on both systems.
    I primarily use it on my desktop for FFXIV which is why I do hardwired. Bluetooth can be squirrely if the game isn’t launched through Steam





  • Nobara is a very good starting point for Linux. I personally know Linux stuff from an IT perspective, but personal use/driver troubleshooting is not something I care to fiddle with regularly. I started with Kubuntu since it’s familiar, but eventually swapped to Nobara when I had some issues with the few games I play.
    Nobara has been seamless and easy. Having all wine and proton dependencies preinstalled is much nicer and a lot of games Just Work ™️ out of the box.






  • It does need other iPhones nearby that have internet connection. We got a handful to test for family during our trips last November even though we both use Android. They didn’t report in when we were away from other people, but kept location decently when in crowded places like the airport. Android has ways to detect when they are following you, but don’t participate in reporting metrics to the source (maybe that’ll change with upcoming Find My Device features in Android 15)




  • Those look great together. You won’t notice the line up difference once it’s all done.
    We have the floor tiles on the wall in our main bathroom, but they’re extra long so it doesn’t look same-y. Plus the shower glass breaks up the tile so it doesn’t immediately look the same.
    In the other bathrooms, we have the same style of square tile on the floor and wall, but the wall is a smaller tile to be more stable while the floor is larger tile for the style we wanted.
