The only people that want apple to open up iMessage are apple fanbois that are too cheap to buy an iPhone. Everyone else just wants apple to support rcs. It's a better standard anyway.

Another so called "economics think-tank" that thinks [consumer price]-[raw material cost]=[profit]. They are just ingnoring all of the other variables in equation. P&G (their biggest example) laid off a huge percentage of their workforce during the pandemic and increased the price of the products. Now they are nearly back at 100% of their workforce but everyone is being paid more. It ends up being a wash for consumers at that point. That's not even including cost of energy, cost of machine maintenance, and all of the other little things that have increased over the last few years. Nonsense.

That was always Gabe's intention with SteamOS when it came out around a decade ago. He has never really liked windows, and definitely never liked the potential for Microsoft to mess with his product. SteamOS was made from the ground up to supplant windows as the primary gamer OS, we are just now witnessing the turning of the tide.

Does that keyboard fit in the case while closed? I don't need a keyboard with the deck often, but it would be nice to have one with it all the time for that off chance I do. The times I need a keyboard I really need a keyboard.

Short sellers, and the corporation that absorbs them at bargain prices.

New MacBooks have their memory soldered directly to the main board and don't have an extra m.2 port. There are very few windows laptops that meet both of those criteria. But like I said, even in those cases you can install games on an external drive.

No it's not, unless they have a MacBook. And even in that case it's not hard to find an external SSD with a thunderbolt or USB3.2 interface.

It's not that unrealistic if the dock has a GPU in it. Something they should have done with the og switch.

When they actually do have far right beliefs sure. But I think they were referring to people using the "right wing extremist" tag as a bludgeon for any views right of their own, or things that may not even be right at all.

Eh, it's unenforceable. Just theater from a bunch of politicians that don't understand the technology. I wouldn't worry about it.

I am almost certain they are not actually doing this and it's just some ploy to get people to login to their long dormant accounts. I haven't logged into my account in around a decade, but I just did today and all the games I bought are still there (a whopping 2).
