Any game that requires a download, even if you have physical media, is essentially the same thing as a digital download. A good chunk of new physical media releases on the Switch 1 and consoles dating back to the 360/PS3 era are like that. Eventually the company that owns the console will no...

Will note that Steam OS out of the box supports the KDE discover application that allows you to install all sorts of Linux applications(though it is missing quite a few). You can also install distrobox on it and install/run applications from other distros. Heck, it can run Heroic Game...

Reminds me why I'm so happy to not be working retail anymore. I still have to deal with annoying people, but without physical exhaustion.

While the processor and GPU can't be upgraded, apparently the storage is just a bog-standard NVME drive and is user upgradable and the system ram is on standard sodimms. It's more upgradable than a mac mini at the very least. It would make a great home theater PC, if the price is right.

I like the idea of physical games, but it's not deal breaker for me these days. It's rather simple to copy games on steam to backup media for archiving. Only tricky part is stripping the DRM out in case steam goes under or turns into a typical tech company.

Yarvinites WANT that to happen.... As long as they get to be the CEO lords anyway.

We'll see how effective enforcement of a vpn ban is.

Feel bad for their kids that they drug along with them. Uprooted them from their home, made them leave all their friends behind just because their parents were afraid of a few gay people.... How much you want to bet at least ONE of those kids is queer and is now stuck in a country that won't...

Yea, It's been a year since the 2024 elections and both of those names aren't really relevant to the current situation.

Tanks aren't driven by AI yet. They have to have crews for said tanks and maga is starting to piss off a lot of military personnel. There aren't enough loyalists to fuel the military machine.

Last night's election results give me hope. Probably STILL gonna be stuck with Andy Harris as my rep after the election next year, but still, looks like things are starting to swing in the right direction.

Congratulations, can't say I'm not a little jealous. Here's to another 6 months!!!

Even worse, he actively goes after people who point out issues with his products by sicking his followers on them and sending his lawyers out. Goes beyond just not caring, it's actively malicious.

Wonder how much the backlash against Trump worldwide affected the results. If so, there's a silver lining outside of the US at least.
