Think of it as the Mac appstore VS the Windows App store. Mac apps (flatpak) are the same as desktop apps, but sandboxed, the store isn't intrusive, and people found it convenient, so it was fine. Then the windows app store (snaps) launched and it did basically the same thing but slightly worse, except Microsoft (canonical) forced it down its users throats, so people hated it.

Both camps are right, from a technical perspective, snaps are fine, but philosophically, it sucks, and the Linux community cares way more about the latter than the former, otherwise they'd all be running windows.

Assuming you are on a phone, viewing desktop version bypasses the app nag.

I think the thing everyone is forgetting is that valve isn't stupid, there's no way they didn't realize you could work around accepting the (legally unenforcable) NDA, and it's open invite.

Valve 100% knows that keeping it "secret" is good for hype and was expecting this to happen at any time, and the nominal ban was expected, but nobody is gonna get sued either.

More people are talking about Valve's "secret" new game because of this than would be if they openly announced it.

NACS is just a different connector, the communication protocol is CCS under the hood. You can use passive adapters no problem. Replacing the connector should be possible, you just need a switch to shunt between level 1/2 AC charging and level 3 DC fast charging.

A quick Google search tells me that the term is outdated and no longer used, having been refuted by modern genetics research.

It is, can tell just by looking at it it's a Rubik's brand.

Its because of staking mostly, but pvp more generally. The gmaul can kill almost instantly, but its high risk high reward since if you don't manage to get the instant KO you'll get out dps'd by more usual damage options.

Because its partially luck based people liked to use it to gamble in the Duel Arena, betting on the outcome.

Well the Greek alphabet, presumably we will get Beta and Gamma next.

Obligatory "Latine" is the preferred gender neutral term for spanish speakers because it actually follows the gendering rules of the language, rather than english speakers making shit up.
