  Good it’ll teach companies they don’t get to have “trusted execution” on a custies client device.

  My hardware should run the software on it the way I want. If my computer works against me on purpose, that should be considered malware.

  If you want me to not do something to your computer you should be increasing your server-side security, not breaking my client-side security.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why a new Steam Machine when the first ones flopped? Because this time, Valve say, it'll actually have games⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Valve does, they literally have teams dedicated to the work.

  Also, do you guys not have re-occuring donations going out to your favorite open source projects every month?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Despite cutting the gags, Borderlands 4's PC specs say it still needs 100GB of SSD space⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, it depends the game.

  There are 20gb games that require much faster medium than retail WoW which is like 80gigs, despite the engines lineage tracing back to when it would’ve been stored on rust made by Maxtor.

  How is this thing selling faster than switch 1?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EA cancels multiple projects from Apex and Titanfall developer Respawn with more layoffs⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  God I’m kinda jealous of the guys who’re like 10-15 years older. Like at least Westwood got out a good amount of CnC games before they caught the knife.

  Respawn was killed just as it was really finding its place in the world…
