They were the first to market and built it to distribute some of the most popular PC games to ever exist. They are an entrenched market leader who haven’t tried to make steam into something more than what it should be. They do not have a monopoly, windows store, gog, itch, epic, Apple store, android store, battle.net, EA store, Xbox/store cloud, PlayStation store…

I don’t think you need to worry about that. My understanding is Bazzite was basically created because steamOS is/was really focused on the steam deck where Bazzite was more general PC support

Nice to see CachyOs!

Uh that just might be his full time job? Plenty of Linux is used in the business world with Azure and WSL

I’m sorry to inform you but Ubuntu is Debian based and is very much used by governments around the world. IMO, the line your drawing is squiggly with breaks in between. As I stated before, your opinion contradicts the entire ethos of Linux and if one uses a Fedora based distribution it means little to nothing politically.

You’re lying to yourself if you don’t think Debian is in direct benefit of the engineering work sponsored/paid for by IBM, Canonical, Google, AWS, Intel, AMD, and many other massive enterprises.

Not to get into politics but the whole point of Linux is about being open and used by anyone from anywhere. I wouldn’t be surprised to see various parts of the Linux kernel, drivers, etc developed/funded by people from Israel, Russia, and many many other countries.

Edit: the point of this message, this type of approach to your OS choice will ultimately result in throwing your PC in the trash if you dig deep enough.

I believe it set her up for parks and rec which was another great show.

I haven’t had any issues with mine, I do agree the power button is in a spot I would not have put it in. I’m running arch on mine. The factor laptops others mentioned look very high quality, prob will be my next if this laptop ever stops handling my needs.

I’m a big fan of the Hp Elitebooks, you can get them with AMD chips. Apple’s MacBooks are pretty much in a league of their own and you pay a premium for that! Have an m3 max for work that is incredible.

No that’s why I said I think it’s why he bought a president…

The worst part about all of this, is Tesla has backed themselves into a corner with their aggressive marketing. If additional sensors are required it will cost them billions in retrofitting all the teslas it’s already sold. Partially believe that’s why Elon bought Donald.

Because they don’t want their friend to die?

What are you going on about? Are you saying the word of the president is worthless and therefore should be ignored? It’s just a joke?

Maybe Mirotalksfu or galene?

Of course he did bad things, he’s human, every great person has said, you learn and grow from your failures.

Apple’s iOS was far more polished than Android in the beginning. Hell, Apple’s iTunes Store paired with its iPods revolutionized the cell phone with the iPhone.

The lock-in has both pros and cons. Do i think it’s hard to move off of Apple once you’re in it? No not really, again they don’t own a monopoly in anything. They just provide a very polished experience in what they do aka “it just works.”

The only thing you can’t really transfer is one-time Apple App Store purchases.

Is it easy to switch from Gmail? Yes, creating a new email is easy, do you get the same benefits leaving the market leader? Most likely not…

Why is everyone so aggressive about history and facts? Please take your blind rage back to Reddit. This thread is about Steve Jobs, acting like he did not lead Apple to numerous successes is a bold face lie. You might not agree with his methods but that doesn’t mean he accomplished nothing.

Your example proves my point, the alternative, Google, is just as if not more evil than Apple… just because they allow third party stores and less lock-in does not mean their product is better. Each person can choose the product that suits their needs.

Yes I’m an ultra capitalist because I recognize history? Good one bro

Your take feels incredibly aggressive. Most people do not want to tinker, they just want their tech to work… Regarding Steve Jobs, are you saying he did not steer Apple to a level of success and prosperity that 99% other companies dream of?

Your opinion of what is overpriced is just your opinion. Apples sales numbers says otherwise, they do not have a monopoly in any market they compete in.

💩argument given how many highly processed foods have animal products in them
