Happy Saint Patty's Day!

I hope you're all wearing green today.  Or perhaps you're green with envy?  Apparently parts of that expression can be traced all the way back to the ancient Greeks. Back then, the color green was associated with paleness, fear, illness, and poor humor.  I guess overtime people started associating it with other frowned-upon emotions like envy?  Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.  Happy Saint Patrick's Day Errybody

WHOA HEY I'M BACK AGAIN

Hi. Long time to talk. I'm back from the dead to talk about the Steam Deck.

This thing looks supes cool, but even though I reserved mine within two hours of pre-orders becoming available, I won't be getting mine til Q3 of this year :( I've been doing a lot of research on the Deck and I have one question that I've yet to find an answer to: Can it run a virtual machine? Obviously there aren't any virtual machine apps within Steam, but what about Desktop mode?

It's just Linux, right? There are virtual machines on Linux. I know there are a lot of Windows Games that the Steam Deck can't currently run, but what if some older games were playable inside of a virtual machine on the Deck? It could open a new world of possibilities. If anyone's still here, let me know your thoughts or if this is even possible. I'm getting excited thinking about it.

Quick update: From what I've read, it looks like it should be possible, but it wouldn't be able to access the GPU.  That shouldn't be too much of a problem for older games that don't use many resources, right?  I just want a portable retro pc in the palm of my hands (not a laptop).  I have the original GPD Win but it's so slow.

Crafting Mines

Decided to try out some animating.  I know it's a little sloppy, but it still took like 30+ hours.  Let me know what you think.
