Problem is that regular Google results are also getting worse. Google has to change something about search, and they're most worried about chatgpt being a better alternative to Google search.
Brave does have an option to use anonymous Google results as a fallback if their index doesn't return enough results, but it will ask you before it does it.
Microsoft will probably come out with an Xbox branded device some day, but I expect it will be restricted to Microsoft store games and game pass.
I'd be happy to help out, but I'm on the Sopuli instance. I believe lemmy fixed the issues where you couldn't moderate a community unless you were on the same instance, but I haven't actually tried yet. I currently moderate !steamdeck@sopuli.xyz
If you find good mods from lemmy.ml feel free to pick them over me, I just wanted to offer my help.
Basically all cheaper laptops come in S mode now, and a lot of people don't know that they can turn it off. They also made it where the only option for disabling it requires you to first create a Microsoft account and use the Microsoft store, so you're required to use their preferred method for software distribution before you can choose to use something else.
It's a lot better than Microsoft's original plan for S mode, originally it was going to be a completely separate windows build, and end users would have to buy a new windows key and reinstall windows if they wanted to use steam.
I don't think any of the enterprise builds of windows use S mode right now, but I'm not sure.
The steam deck should be the only loss leader in handheld PCs, all the competitors need to make a profit on the hardware.
Microsoft could actually sell an Xbox branded handheld at a loss as well, but they would need to force Microsoft store sales/game pass to recoup the cost.
I miss sliding/rotating phones. In general new phones were really exciting back then.
Who domesticated who
Cats are only considered partially domesticated, and they basically domesticated themselves. They naturally decided to live near human settlements to prey on mice/etc that went after people's grain.
In comparison, dogs are conaidered fully domesticated, and we're domesticated by humans.
Are you honestly telling me you wouldn't buy a Temple OS handheld?
Valve has a larger goal though of making Linux a viable alternative to Windows for gamers. The whole reason valve has made some much effort on Linux gaming is because Microsoft scared them when Microsoft started making plans to block software installs from anywhere except the Microsoft store.
Microsoft has backed off from that plan some since, but many new new computers running windows are in "s mode" by default which limits software to Microsoft store only. It can be disabled if you have administrator privileges and know how, but it's still an example of Microsoft trying to shift towards a future where all PC games have to be bought through their store.
This is also why steam jumped at the chance to work with Google on getting steam on Chrome OS.
This is just steam titles in the verified program. Protondb has 21k steam games that are reported working, and there's also non-steam games and emulation.
