Then you get into the debate of who can and cant afford something, which goes nack to the idea that a more specific definition is a bad one.

Hence not everyone sees it as a black and white thing, because there will be a lot of people who would disagree with your statement to some extent.

Im terms of a perfect filter, not exactly, hence the best method for those crowds would be having a curated list, rather than applying said defition to all users..the users would know more about games tham someone hired at valve who would check a game for basic functionalities and doesnt evem finish the game (there have been times where a game would get verified, but has something broken late into the game). A curator would be able to adjust lists and add remove them as new updates happen that might add/remove functionality, something valve isnt going to revisit after getting a verified status.

Some people dont see it as a black and white issue.

Does firefox lose its privacy status if it takes google money and makes the default search engine google search?

It is an optional solution. You could choose to have a wifi hotspot as well, or be in a location offering wifi. Its having the specific uaecase of refusing to use any of the 3 is saying, "I dont do this, therefore i want the definition changed" even though the changed definition doesn't apply to everyone.

The current definition of steam verified is very basic, and should stay basic. And people should adjust their filters for their definition instead of valve picking a more precise definition, and the definition being illogical for other usecases

Using filters or creating/joining a curators list is precisely what you should do for more specific situations.

It has an opt in option to sell ad space for some of its crypto. Some people just are offended that the option is even there.

500 would be the price for higher end WMR headsets. Most popular would be the HP Reverb

Tou can buy parts individually, but its not often that someone buys parts individually unless something breaks. The poont is it minimizes skus (two case designs (13", 15" built around repairability) designs dont go to waste if one thing breaks. They also open their own marketplace for users to resell their used parts as parts can freely be used in other builds.

They dont have much to hide, the point is that they claim theirselves who is pro repair, minimal sku and choose your own ports is not sustainable, then any laptop manufacturer who designs laptops that are going to be desposed if a single part breaks is going to have it worse, over several different Skus with different case/mobo/layout and part selections. As they would heavily fail in the 2nd R (reuse) category.

They are a company whose trying to change the laptop industry by offering a repairable laptop that can be upgraded. By not soldering in components and not locking or changing the shape of components, their goal is to make laptops easy to repair and upgrade. All cpu/mobo upgrades have the same pcb dimensions, screens are easy to replace due to the ease of opening the bezels. They outright say theirselves that they are not ecologically sustainable (meaning other lapop producing companies are far worse)

It depends on ehat youre trying to do. If you are teying to debloat it, of course you go out of your way, but it has the reverse problem for most drivers, where youre almost guaranteed to plug in an arbitrary USB device, and itll probably have drivers or software in the windows environment.

Linux is great. With the caveat that you specifically pick hardware that works well in Linux for it, else you have the problem of "a choice fighting you every step of the way"
