If you pick hardware/features from company that don't support your OS of choice, I don't see this to happened, not just in future, but ever. Just picture someone buying software/hardware for Sony's FreeBSD (PlayStation) and expecting it to work on Windows: this doesn't make any sense.

Linux is an insane exception to this because it's the Linux community of engineers who reverse engineered. It's not about wait for "Linux has to be ready", but be sure the money you thrown at your hardware are well spent.

If AMD company suddenly shut down, your hardware on Windows is just an unsecured brick which in few years become useless. On Linux it will be always supported, bug fixed and updated thanks to OpenSource drivers.

I don't know what's going on with your steam install to take this much time to log you in, but it looks like your Linux install is left with some dangling parts.

First, we need to be clear if we're talking about Torvald's Linux vs Microsoft's Windows... or a bunch of company that don't give a fuck about you.

Sound boards, GPU and all this insane amount of hardware runs on Linux better than any Microsoft thing may ever hope to. Your issue with your sound card is not Linux... it's called "Creative".

There are way to develop sound cards and have them working on day -1 (even a day before it's release)... and way to put trick and trinkets in the binary blob without documenting anything (or, more precisely, keeping purposely hidden, since you always need source code to make binaries blob). In this case the Linux community rip and tear every detail by their own: the time took is never Linux or Linux's community but, put more plainly, just the company who took your money and said to you " oh! So you want to run this thing on your Linux install? Well, what about: fuck you! Is that OK?"

All you have listed are IP, as Nintendo one; the issue is that Nintendo's IP can be commercially produced for Nintendo's hardware only. PC don't have "company IP" (and that's one of its strength, openness), even Commander Keen appeared on Gameboy Color.

In order to keep with PC openness nature, I would suggest something that come from and to the community itself:

Weaknesses: Often spaces out remembering old consoles that have passed on (e.g. Dreamcast, Super Nintendo), bursts into tears from these memories as well

jiggle physics daughters, to be precise.

Ok, space Karen.

addendum: Denuvo is sick of “toxicity,” says people only hate it because it works

...or the videogame is known to make views on youtube.

Anyway, this don't undermine the intention of the developer.

'keep fighting on until there's an ultimate victory'*

• (asterisk). "their ultimate victory"... the day Apple and Google gives the little shit they want for themselves, Epic return to be a good servant: exactly as they are for both Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo today. We get the stuff we want, then screw everybody else.

You didn't see Tim Sweeney that much active in the campaign for StopKillingGames: let's make sure only publishers, and the publisher we're happy with, to have political weight.

Can’t or won’t?

"money"

IMHO: Valve is phasing off the very initial gen. of Steam Deck to focus OLED/HDR (which would benefit Linux gaming ecosystem), as SteamDeck is certainly a standard defining device for Linux gaming ecosystem.

Don't forget the cutshare

29 = (8.7 to Valve) (20.3 Pocket)

7m are on Xbox, so the count is:

Pocket = 243.6 m (on 12m copies sold)

Valve = 104.4 m ( on 12m copies sold)
