The first one worked with some kernel patches, there is a Discord server (Linux Adventures in VR) with lots of information about getting various headsets running in Linux.

If you are interested in Valve you might want to wait, rumor is we get at least an announcement very soon. I say this as someone that pre-order a Bigscreen Beyond 2 though, lol.

Do you have a source for this, I was trying to find anything about it but couldn’t. It would be quite interesting if they do end up taking it down, and I would love to read more.

Don’t think they are lying about the denial, they said they wanted the upgrade to be big and the z2 is marginally better than what the Steam Deck already has. I would guess a Steam Deck 2 is years away, but we might get a Steam Home Console, or maybe the Deckard VR headset. I kinda doubt any of those would run a z2 though. Why would Valve be using an off the shelf chip when they had a custom chip last time?

It’s Tyler, but he includes the decompiled String in the videos found in other Source 2 games. YouTube Link

While personally I really want more VR Half Life, I don’t think that is what we are getting. Too many leaked strings regarding crowbars and HEV suits. But I guess we will see.

Kinda doubt it will be an Alyx sequel, unless there is something new and exciting they can do in that space. Valve doesn’t like to make games just to advance the story, and I’m not sure what more they could do in VR.

I mean they did, you can verify yourself with an official domain name. I think a lot of the problem is new Bluesky users not understanding one that if they are a high profile user they need to do that, and two that users need to look for officially verified domains to see if a user is legit. If you look at the official steam accounts, they are all verified with official Valve owned domains.

They recently added Vulkan support too, making it officially able to run more software then even native OS X laptops. Asahi is so cool.
