In some states you do. Even if you already own the vehicle and move that said state, you have to pay a sales tax...

I like how phones become so thin then need to jut out to make room for the cameras so they cant even lie flat anymore.... so dumb

Did you just repeat your comment? Maybe you should get your handler to spend more money on your LLM model.

What they give back is miniscule in what they take.

What is the point you're trying to make?

The deck can run windows, so if it didnt run in compatability mode in linux itll work in native windows. Now if you were to put a limitation that it must acheive 30fps in any game, you might have a point, but... thats really grasping for straws.

Yes, which is why step taxation was implemented... the richer you are the more you're expected to return back to society.

Web servers are different from game servers. You need a lot of performance and fast low latency servers to keep up with realtime game play. Webservers however dont need that and can benefit of load balancing accross multiple servers. Scale of economy helps a lot, but with game servers the cost doesnt change much because a session has to be on a single machine.

As for distribution costs, most of the cost is manufacturing and physical distribution of discs. So yeah, they are making a killing by continuing to take a a huge cut from game sales when most of their distribution is online.

Ok... if i give up my phone, i feed a family for a week. If bezo gives up a yacht, he feeds 1,000 familes for life. See the problem here?

So what would hold that title?

At this point, it'll be easier to count the games that wouldnt work on the steam deck.

It makes sense because servers are expensive to operate. The real scam is nintendo where you pay for P2P multiplayer...

Its probably the fact a significant amount of cheaters use linux, but the overall market of players use linux... so nuking all linux players is harmless to their bottom line.
