They also do a really good job of patching Proton to get Windows games working on the Deck hardware. Even games that don't meet minimum requirements will run on the Deck.

I have right click scripts that literally do everything. A full blown video editor, vfx, archive extraction, open root window, sudo exec, easy permissions changes, etc. All done with zenity lol. I'm just thinking apps that tap the windows right click menu will not be available in KDE and I probably have some equivalent to what those did in windows.

Just install Mint or Kubuntu and grab Steam. I can hook you up with useful KDE(kubuntu gui) right click action menu scripts that I use for everything Windows had but Kubuntu was missing. If you go the Mint route most of them are already there for you. AppImages and Deb files behave like exe installers. Just like Windows you will run into issues but someone here could probably help you out. My Grandma could barely use Windows after XP and took to Mint like a pro.

The kitty litter in the classrooms when I went to school was for when you ate too much candy and barfed. sadness

This is considerably more depressing of an explanation than I was expecting. I was hoping conservatives believed it was a liberal woke child rearing technique from tiktok or something. Like Alkaline water or breast feeding babies till they are a teenager. I guess I should just default to assuming it's always because evil.

Perhaps they are using the ones medical professionals use which are a bit more robust than your old school pager. They can do texting and email in some cases. It sounds like these could do text messaging using some protocol and frequency band.
