@supersamus02:matrix.org@supersamus02:matrix.org (I said "there's no need for Gamescope", not "there's no need for any layer", so I'm semantically correct, emoji of annoying person with glasses) 13:01:45
@k900:0upti.meK900Well yeah13:01:59
@k900:0upti.meK900XWayland might get some sort of colorspace atom though13:02:10
@aidalgol:matrix.org@aidalgol:matrix.orgAnyone have any ideas on this issue? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/29867218:23:42
@ian:graham.tokyo@ian:graham.tokyo left the room.18:53:31
@darkwater4213:matrix.org@darkwater4213:matrix.orgIs there any way to declare what games you want Steam to install on your computer?21:44:56

@alina:kescher.atalina changed their profile picture.14:25:31
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.org darkwater4213: I mean you could build something like that 14:38:30
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgVia steam-cli14:38:42

@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.orgSounds incredibly hacky if even doable.16:10:30
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgYou could probably even do it via Nix that way now that I think about it16:17:13
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgYou'd have to get your creds into the FOD but that should be doable16:17:38
@darkwater4213:matrix.org@darkwater4213:matrix.org~~well then why hasn't anyone done it~~17:18:59
@k900:0upti.meK900There's actually a whole bunch of problems with that17:19:16
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgBe the change you want to see17:19:22
@k900:0upti.meK900Mostly that steamcmd can't download a fixed revision17:19:31
@darkwater4213:matrix.org@darkwater4213:matrix.org In all seriousness, this would be basically useless to me until Nix on W*ndows is released. My ultimate goal is to never have to touch W*ndows ever again. 17:19:53
@k900:0upti.meK900And also I'm not sure if this is still a thing, or was ever really a thing on Linux native titles, but Steam used to fingerprint individual downloads17:20:02
@k900:0upti.meK900You can use Linux SteamCMD to download Windows apps, though17:20:24

Well... then flakes are impossible, sure. But I don't see why we can't do something like HM and create something like a steam-games channel?
17:21:02
@k900:0upti.meK900You also can't point Steam at store paths17:21:38

Not very useful for anti-cheat 😭
17:21:39
@k900:0upti.meK900It will explode17:21:42
@k900:0upti.meK900If it can't write to the game directory17:21:48

This is a project for the semi-distant future, I'm afraid.
17:22:11
@k900:0upti.meK900 The only way you can really do this is some sort of an ensureApps option that will just call Steam to auto-install things from a systemd service 17:22:12

I'm pretty sure I downloaded a specific revision through a CLI before
