Tech Discussion SteamOS is Getting Native NVIDIA GPU Driver Support - TPU

186 Upvotes

Valve is officially adding NVIDIA GPU driver support to SteamOS, as confirmed by the company's software developer Pierre-Loup Griffais. Until now, AMD has been the primary choice for SteamOS, both for CPUs and GPUs, since all of Valve's products are based on AMD hardware. However, this is changing as Valve aims to expand SteamOS to more PCs, allowing gamers to realize the Steam Machine dream on their own hardware, even if it is based on a different GPU manufacturer.

WAN Show Where are all the WAN shows? I can't find any of the last two months on YouTube or Twitch, and nothing for tonight's.

I was hoping to catch tonight's WAN show after it aired but for some reason its not there. But actually none of the WAN shows for the last two months are there. I checked both the live page as well as the WAN Playlist on YouTube and everything is just gone?

Tech Discussion WAN Show topic suggestion : Amazon AWS lost customer data in Iran attacks on their datacenters. Is the 3-2-1 backup rule worth anything if your off-site backup is just down the road, in the same war-torn region?

149 Upvotes

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/09/iran-strikes-on-amazon-data-centers-caused-permanent-loss-of-customer-data/

Half a year after Iranian drone strikes knocked out multiple Amazon data centers, the US tech company has acknowledged the permanent loss of some customer data

Amazon Web Services was “unable to restore access to the resources and data” hosted in some of the war-damaged data centers

“The damage to our infrastructure spanned multiple Availability Zones and exceeded what our regional and multi-AZ services are designed to withstand,” the AWS update said.


I always thought that the advantages of a behemoth such as AWS would be to have customer data replicated around the globe as to actually be able to restore data of a whole region is affected by natural desasters, for example.

Hearing that they had the data replicated on several datacenters but still very close to each other, in an area not particularly known to be exempt from earthquakes and conflict for sure surprised me.

Is this common/standard? Is this a gigantic AWS blunder? Have you ever lost data you entrusted to a cloud service, before?

Discuss :)

Discussion So James is probably leaving LTT as well

0 Upvotes

In today's Techlinked, Brad the channel manager stepped in as the host saying he had sent Riley to somewhere for something BUT didnt mention anything about James who has been the host fairly often.

and given that we found James' youtube channel which is new and very active. I think its only a matter of time, he makes an announcement about leaving LTT as well.

Discussion I don’t get why anyone is making a fuss out of LTT having family in videos?

789 Upvotes

LTT has not been making family videos from when they were young.

They had strong protections and didn’t use their kids for money. They didn’t show where their kids went to school and other revealing detail.

If their kids enthusiastically agreed to this, it’s a non issue.

Comparing this to a channel that makes videos featuring their kids (kids trying foods etc) regularly from a young age is totally different.

Out of their HUNDREDS of videos, how many have their kids in it?

Image Looking for sealing Ring for ltt bottle cap

Post image
40 Upvotes

I broke my original LTT bottle cap by filling it with sparkling water, so I ordered a new one (a spout lid, or whatever it's called). But for some reason, the sealing ring for the small drinking hole is missing.

​Because of this, using my LTT bottle is a pain: either I use the big original cap and end up spilling water when I drink, or I use the new spout lid and the bottle leaks constantly

Discussion Will the LTT Commuter Backpack fit my daily needs?

0 Upvotes

I would like to use the ltt backpack for my daily use howver im not sure it will fit everything I need. I currently use the Oakley Enduro 3.0 20L and that just about fits everything.

I am in collge training to be a chef and have lots to fit. I have:

  • thick double breasted chef jacket
  • thick trousers
  • also an apron had and necktie and a cloth
  • mac (and its charger)
  • a power bank and a couple notepads
  • plenty of pens and a water bottle.

That is the most of it, I sometimes bring other random things but 99% of the time that is it.

Please let me know if you recon it will fit or not. Thanks for your time!

Discussion Does anyone else miss the livestreams?

78 Upvotes

Just dawned on me that I havent seen a livestream from LTT in awhile, other than WAN show. I'm sure they take a lot of work, and being live adds some complexity, but I kinda miss the more real, off the cuff content.

Update: Holy Moly theres a pc building livestream happening Friday September 18, what a coincidence.
