    The benefit of Steam Machine:

    1. HDMI-CEC
    2. Wake on Bluetooth
    3. Sleep/Resume
    4. Background updates
    5. Efficiency/Noise/Heat

      Actually supporting HDMI-CEC is such a big thing because it makes it the perfect HTPC machine for Libreelec. No more need for separate remote to control your 4k HDR media player!

      Haha, benefits of a computer is that it is a computer.

      Wait, is CEC rare thing? Does Linux lack specific support for modern GPUs?
      It’s been a long time since I’ve tried CEC on non-Pi computer.

      Wake on IR or USB is def a thing, but it isn’t via BT?

        It’s nothing to do with Linux, it’s to do with GPU hardware.

        Steam Deck has wake on BT so presumably the Machine will as well.
