I have my high end PC connected to a TV so it ruins my chances of ever switching to Linux. But yes for the Steam box this doesn't matter.
Nvidia's private driver seems to deliver 4k@120Hz just fine.

If you're trying to build AI based applications you can and should compare the costs between vendor based solutions and hosting open models with your own hardware.
On the hardware side you can run some benchmarks on the hardware (or use other people's benchmarks) and get an idea of the tokens/second you can get from the machine. Normalize this for your usage pattern (and do your best to implement batch processing where you are able to, which will save you money on both methods) and you have a basic idea of how much it would cost per token.
Then you compare that to the cost of something like GPT5, which is a bit simpler because the cost per (million) token is something you can grab off of a website.
You'd be surprised how much money running something like DeepSeek (or if you prefer a more established company, Qwen3) will save you over the cloud systems.
That's just one factor though. Another is what hardware you can actually run things on. DeepSeek and Qwen will function on cheap GPUs that other models will simply choke on.
Well the seemingly cheap comes with significantly degraded performance, particular for agentic use. Have you tried replacing Claude Code with some locally deployed model, say, on 4090 or 5090? I have. It is not usable.

Seem images on GitHub web also not showing
The one thing I wish it has is 3.5mm audio jack. Both Xbox and SONY's dualsense controller have this. But SONY don't support audio via Bluetooth. The Xbox one need a USB adapter but its build is not as good as SONY's. SONY don't have a USB adapter. Given Steam controller is already using an USB puck, it should be able to support it.

I might be in the minority here but I've consistently found Gemini to be better than ChatGPT, Claude and Deepseek (I get access to all of the pro models through work)
Maybe it's just the kind of work I'm doing, a lot of web development with html/scss, and Google has crawled the internet so they have more data to work with.
I reckon different models are better at different kinds of work, but Gemini is pretty excellent at UI/UX web development, in my experience
Very excited to see what 3.0 is like
Gemini is the only model that can provide consistent solution to theoretical physics problems and output it into LaTeX document.

Now is there a way to use a laptop's keyboard as input as well?
you can just buy a nanokvm

Is there anywhere I can buy a NanoKVM-USB? The page you linked has a 'preorder' page linked, but I'm not sure how long I'd have to wait and whether it's an actual product that people have successfully used.
Aliexpress has them
Another vote for Infuse. In my experience Infuse 8 handles HDR and color management correctly (1:1 with Safari or QuickTime), while IINA does not (too dark).
Infuse is good, but it does not feel so well-polished for the desktop, for example, some windows for pop-up could have been a real window, but were a pop-up that blocks the main player.
This is the plan not a coincidence. China pays huge “grants” to their citizens to come to the US, get educated, work in big tech/science, then bring it all home.
