    "First step in this guide is to poste.the following code into a console

    echo /dev/null > /etc/Pulseaudio.conf

    Title of the guide:

    You won’t believe this! Steamdeck at 144fps in BF2042 by doing this simple trick!

    And claims to improve performance by resetting the whole audio system to a sloppily cobbled together ALSA config.

        Oh, sry, I didn’t count entering “su” and thus doing everything as administrator for no fucking reason as a step of it’s own since that is mandate for bad guides

          ah right right right in this case it makes sense. Sudo just gets in the way, stupid valve and their warnings and protections, just do everything as root! We joke because we were all like that once, and you only gotta destroy your bootloader once to learn

          I’ve been doing Security+ training and they have you do everything as root, which goes against the very principle of least privilege.
