Default OOM killer behavior on Linux: I start a build, and it kills slack and discord. Technically correct.

PSA - If your Steam Deck or Steam on Linux has started failing to download or launch Proton games, you may have caught a bad config from Valve's servers.

We believe the problem is fixed now, but you need to delete a cache file locally (~/.steam/steam/userdata/&lt;steamid&gt;/config/compat.vdf where <steamid> is your id).

See https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/10846 for details.

Shutting down (rebooting) my Linux box and I see it wait for more than two minutes on an "OOM Killer stop job" ..

@dotstdy @riesi it's also waiting to unmount filesystems that are no longer available with the vpn down .. yeah I should look for the configs and turn all those timeouts way down rather than complaining :)

Also I don't reboot quite often enough for it to be really annoying. Just time to get up and stretch out.
