Apple is dipping their toes in the gaming water. Like couple of weeks ago they had a livestream, outside the WWDC schedule, about porting pc games to MacOs. They have even made plugins for Unity and put them on GitHub. So at least they take gaming a bit more seriously than they did under Steve Jobs.

Sure on a biological level

Sure but culturally it is a lot less normalized than in the Middle East.

Grokipedia would strip out the “woke” from Wikipedia

So are they removing the pages on Insomnia?

Pun aside, on a socio-cultural and legal level yes it is relative, it all depends how far separated you are on the cousin tree and what is legally and culturally acceptable. Like in many Middle Eastern countries first cousin marriages is straight up normal and not considered incest.

I think some of the people posting comments don’t know what “guilty pleasure “ means.

Plus all the DDT boomers inhaled when the government just sprayed it carelessly around everywhere.

Books disintegrate when they are stored in an environment that is too dry. So only use those things when the environment is not dry already.

Yes I know I own a Deck. I’m just saying that the Steam layer is not, since the comment I was replying to was asking why you’d still need Plasma and not use the Steam UI to use it as a desktop

Basically SteamOS is just a tweaked version of Arch Linux that boots Steam Big Picture Mode by default and launches games with Proton. It’s not a full blown OS by itself.

Hence why Valve is releasing the Steam Machine to push SteamOS. It will illuminate a pathway to run away on. At least for gamers.

Dirty Cumjizz

Only exists in my head ✅✅

I don’t see how it will have any effect beyond what the Steam store already has on the indie market. Indies already flourish thanks to Steam’s use of discovery algorithms instead of human curation.

The Steam Machine isn’t going to compete with consoles. It’s not a replacement for a console and the target market for this machine is PC users not console users. Console gamers who don’t know what Steam is will not buy this machine like they didn’t buy Steam Decks instead of Nintendo Switches. The goal of Valve’s hardware push is to show that an alternative for Windows is possible. Valve wants to break Microsoft’s monopoly on the PC market. Since Microsoft is the biggest threat for Valve. The more anti-consumer Windows becomes the more it puts Valve’s business in danger, since a shitty Windows experience can push PC gamers towards consoles.

Reminds me of this standup bit:

Also health care won’t be affordable for long if everyone just decides to indulge in unhealthy food and stops exercising

They are still not centrists on the political spectrum though. The political spectrum doesn’t shift right just because the political landscape shifts to the right.

always been socially liberal but fiscally conservative

Isn’t that just the definition of a liberal?
