Like the article states: it contains an NPU. It's also not targeted at consumers.

They've also auctioned some of it off, including the well-known case where they were not exactly supposed to.

Basically, if PlaytronOS works as promised, then your handheld PC will no longer be restricted to just single store fronts or Windows foibles.

Does the writer here assume that SteamOS is limited to a single storefront? Because that couldn't be further from the truth. As you can see on Playtron's website, they use the same launchers that you can already use on SteamOS, like Heroic.

You could easily run your Game Pass catalog on your Steam Deck, for example.

That is highly doubtful. I'd be very impressed if Playtron got Gamepass to work on Linux but let's be real here, they didn't.

7700X is way above the recommended specs and my CPU though. It's not surprising that it runs fine on a great system, but many of us have more mid-tier systems.

Unfortunately performance especially on PC looks rough. I am/was pretty excited for the game, but looks like my CPU (3700X) might just not cut it for a good gameplay experience, despite being above the recommended specs.

One of my favorite ways to waste time during my high-school days.

Looking at France recently, wouldn't be so sure about that one...

"Smoking" chewing gum cigarettes.

Exploring the internet by going through a physical "100 coolest websites for kids" book.

The witchy one! Funnily enough, when I googled it for the population number, I found that there's also a Salem in my home state of Baden-Württemberg in Germany. I had never heard of that one, despite having been within like 15km of it.

Kirby's adventure feels really modern for an NES game, still holds up great to this day. The difficulty is also closer to what people are used to nowadays, compared to the punishing difficulty of many NES games. One of the few NES games I played through completely.

I was thinking of the one with the cracked roads and the fire burning below. So that's probably the former? Haven't actually heard of the massacre I think.

A few smaller ones that pop into my head are Boulder, Amarillo, Centralia (does that still count?), Slab city (not sure that counts either), Salem and Providence. Looking it up, the smallest proper city of these is Salem with 44k.

I could also probably name a ton of European city names and there will be small towns in the USA with that name, but that would kind of be cheating.
