Black flag, more ships/weapon paths, maybe some fleet commands for bigger battles, expand the shipping jobs thing to feel like you're really commanding a fleet.

Or none of that and just call it a pirate game.

If it was actually like Black Flag I'd be all over it.

But it's live service shit.

The other dumb part is that when their manufacturing capability does significantly improve, AMD will happily sell similar chips to other people. And Valve won't care in the slightest. Because all they want is people on PC so they buy games, many of which are through steam.

Linux being relevant is a bigger benefit to them than any revenue from the deck, and they've already demonstrated that it's capable of pretty much any game that doesn't actively exclude it.

Facebook/ten cent/etc have literally zero reason to stay off the play store. Google encourages them to be malware, and doesnt curtail their bad behavior is any way.

Apple doesn't. They might not leave while they think they can also destroy the security of iOS in the US, but it is a complete and utter certainty that the literal day any similar law takes effect in the US that Facebook and all their apps leave the App Store completely. They absolutely can trivially walk people through the steps from their website and the apps that are already installed, and they already have the monopoly to force their users to deal with it.

Apple isn't Reddit, building a market by claiming to be open then locking it down. They built their market because the walled garden is a massively better product.

And then, after installing a malware OS, you have to let destiny install it's own malware.

The problem is that "don't let people game you" is extremely difficult.

It's many, many orders of magnitude easier to provide a useful search of sites that tell you the truth about what they are than it is when 99% of sites lie to you.

The writing was always stupid, but 3 turned extra-self-congratulatory-stupid.

I've had decent experience with nobara with a 2080. I had a couple hiccups early, and had to reinstall basically right away, but after that it's been solid.

But still declared them liable for the actions of their users.

Bad ruling, just less bad than it could be.

I could see the benefit on a non-phone mobile device. Completely cutting power as a deep sleep without needing a lengthy boot sequence could be nice.

Unless it's actually "just as fast" as volatile memory (including progress to the latter) and not more expensive, though, it seems like it wouldn't justify the tradeoffs.

I'm guessing they're the leagues they have some rights to. But even assuming they have it solved way before football season it dampens my interest a bunch.
