Cloud RTX on Tux | Linux Out Loud 119 digs into NVIDIA’s new native GeForce NOW client for Linux and Fire TV, and what cloud gaming means for folks with aging GPUs, handhelds, and serious subscription fatigue. Bill and Wendy also chat staycation gaming, NAS and home-lab cleanup, Ubiquiti and travel routers, the DaVinci Speed Editor, and the tragic tale of tea spilled directly onto a Steam Deck.
