I found this fun video which show the potential of Steam Fex running on a basic ARM hardware.
Model used: https://www.arduino.cc/product-uno-q
Running Steam games on an Arduino with 16gb storage 2 gb ddr4 ram - Because Fuck Yeah!

That’s not an arduino. It’s a piece of shit cloud software enshitified Qualcomm abomination.

It's as complex as running it on an rpi

Yep, it is not even worth an article lol
I bet the MCU is doing exactly nothing having to do with it either 😂
I would be interested if this little CPU somehow helps Qualcomm processors transition to mainline Linux instead of android though.

"microprocessor"? I think we call that CPU

More like an SOC, it also has GPU and DSP:

Apologies, it's an even worse name then.

It's a pretty common way to refer to them in the embedded space

It's officially Arduino, but indeed has nothing to do with the spirit of Arduino we used to know.

For those of you who don't want to watch a 20+ minutes video: This video describes the setup of steam on a arm-based arduino single-board computer with only 2GB of RAM. In the end, it worked ... barely

Bringus is great :)

I like your reasoning.
