Abandon nvidia. Buy amd/intel gpus.

Fantastic ahaha

Absolutely. You are right, the initial uptake is more important right now. Most of the Linux market share on Steam is the Steam Deck right now.

Where’s the source for that? Every statistic I can find puts Linux at about 4% (never above 5 in history) and specifically for Steam, it’s at 2.69%.

Yeah, but I mean when making a decision to natively support Linux, it becomes more likely to skip it as “proton can just handle it”.

So it’s likely we won’t see more native development until Linux desktop adoption is much much higher.

I’d like native builds really, but this kinda discourages that. Then again though, with tiny market share Linux has, it’s understandable devs don’t support it natively. It’s also good to not have to manually enable Proton everytime too.

Oh and I suppose this helps with adoption, one less hurdle for someone to jump through to just play games from their library.

You will never stop cheaters, ever. It’s something we have to live with. It’s annoying when it happens, but it’s hardly the end of the world either.

So I’d rather have the AC running on the server and not invading my system.

Basic anti-cheat already does this, but also with memory, because most cheats are reading/modifying what is in memory. I think the only ethical solution for anti-cheat is on the server side, with machine learning perhaps, kind of like VACnet.

A very nice, simple webpage too.

The only reason for third person to exist in a game like this is to sell more skins.

Of course not… people should still do regular backups.

No consumer decided it would be better without it, there’s literally no reason to defend it’s removal. It doesn’t exist because the phone companies wanted to sell their wireless earbuds, that’s it. Anything else they tell you is bullshit.

Why are you trying to justify not having it? You can still use your wireless buds if you want if the port exists, you can still use your USB-C earphones or adapter if you’d like. It can exist in harmony along with other features, like it did for decades before capitalism called for more profits.

We were doing perfectly fine 10 years ago and manufacturing has only gotten more advanced, the only real reason the 3.5mm port was removed is because Apple wanted to sell people their AirPods. That’s literally it. The rest of the manufacturers soon followed suit when they realised how many people were buying AirPods.

Or just put the port in the phone.

“just”, I think not giving money to Apple or Google anything is a perfectly good reason alone to want expandable storage.

Phone manufacturers charge a massive premium for more storage on a phone, storage which is then lost if the phone dies. A microSD card can be moved around and they cost little.

Not everyone has a home server, in fact a very very small percentage do and being able to store their photos and what-not on a microSD card is very valuable. The freedom to add more storage is a good thing to have. Most people can understand an SD card, but not how to setup an entire home server with syncing etc, let alone exposing that to the web to access it anywhere. It also costs money to run, a microSD card doesn’t.

The only reason we don’t have expandable storage or a 3.5mm port anymore is: money. They want to sell you that cloud service, upcharge you for more internal storage and make you buy their bluetooth earbuds.

AMD CPUs and GPUs are great.

Nvidia wants you to buy a new gpu every year, so they are trying to force this AI (ML) upscaling/frame gen horseshit into games so they can sell you a new “improved” version with a new GPU generation.

Good. Fuck that shit.
