No it doesn't.

Any other store can straight rip their compatibility tools if they want. It's not their fault no one else can be bothered.

I don't see how anyone would make their money back on this. It's way below niche.

Eh, maybe it won't work for me. The benefit of a demo, in theory.

It straight up wouldn't download. Maybe I'll try again later.

This one actually seemed interesting to me. I'm a sucker for mining as part of the loop of it's done well.

It gave me "invalid platform error" on steam deck though.

Most games on steam just work out of the box.

If it doesn't, protondb may have workarounds, many of which are minor.

The biggest exception are games with invasive anticheat actively choosing not to allow you to use Linux.

SteamOS is based on arch, and there are alternatives based off of steamOS, and more targeting gaming and Steam generally.

I think automated means "no human". I don't think automatic necessarily does, especially if humans don't have agency.

What you're describing isn't real, but even if it was, it wouldn't warrant a refund. You can't play 100 hours then make up phantom bugs to get your money back.

"Automatically" would be a perfectly reasonable word choice if a request from the police is granted without interaction. In all honesty even if a human has to send it, if the process doesn't allow them any kind of autonomy or authority to decline the request, that probably qualifies, too.

Haven't touched my PS4 in ages, but turned it back on to give Bloodborne another try. With Boost mode performance is almost playable this time, so might play on one screen with college football on the other this afternoon.

Edit: I'm bad.

By that definition there is no gaming on Linux.

A medium sized business isn't going to just pay for shit if it doesn't actually add meaningful value to do so. 6 grand a year as a dropped in extra cost is absolutely something that is going to make companies that aren't mega-conglomerations stop and re-evaluate their social media presence.

I don't think it was ever possible for Twitter to ever be profitable at the point of Musk's takeover. There's just way too much cash lit on fire already. You can change the fundamentals so you earn more than you spend, but it's not capable of making anywhere near the money speculatively thrown into it.

It's not dead yet because they haven't forced payment yet. But it's dying hard, and will die overnight the day they add a paywall.
