Same here, although even earlier. As a family of five Sony's horribly bad game sharing within the family if you have more than one PS5 (we do) has sealed the deal for us. I've just built up two Bazzite-based Steamboxes and that's going to be our couchgaming from now on.

No PS6.

Yeah ... no.

Ask Europeans if they feel working in that industry right now feels like anything but for defensive reasons.

Worked for a Japanese company and visited the head office in Tokyo. One of the more senior managers took us to his favorite local sea food restaurant.

I hate seafood. Especially when it's fancy and you get baby squid that looks like they were just fresh out of the water with no preparation etc (part of the "fancy"). However, culturally I had absolutely no possibility to do anything but eat, smile and praise. The courses just kept coming, each one being more disgusting than the last.

Tell that to itch.io and Steam - the latest victims of centralized payments systems.

I enjoyed both the 20s and early 30s, seeing no reason to stop having fun. We had our first child when I was 38, which at the time felt perfectly fine.

I was 45 when we had the third, and now at 50 I'm definitely feeling a bit too old for the needs of my younger kids.

tl;dr: Don't wait too long with adulthood.

I could definitely see myself setting up a Wireguard VPN only allowing connections to a bunch of porn sites here on my home fiber in Sweden. Should make a nice little side profit.

I think it's all AI generated

When a games developer make a game for Switch Nintendo has a say in how it must perform before you're allowed to release it. Valve have no such requirements on games put on Steam - it's up to the developers whether to require a lot of performance or not. Thus, while Valve sells the Steam Deck that doesn't mean games on Steam necessarily run well on it.

It's not theirs?

I have specifically answered just that. As to why you buy new instead of used it's because of the very pleasant three year EU consumer protection laws.

I get that you don't like the fact that you were wrong, but it doesn't change that you were.

Why should I answer when those questions include statements that aren't true? (That's called the "loaded question" fallacy, btw).

900 EUR is what the previous iPhone model, in its lowest configuration, costs atm. Compare to your "highest tier" which is part of the question you want me to answer.

Answer this instead: Why is it so important for you to voice opinions on things you know nothing about on the Internet?

Swedish author and famous pro-Ukraine blogger Lars Wilderäng (Cornucopia) reports today that the Swedish security expert Karl Emil Nikka has revealed that Kagi is using the Kremlin propaganda tool Yandex as a backend for searches.

Wilderäng speculates this might mean search terms are leaking to Russia, while others worry about how Kremlin thus can get their talking points into western search results.

Security expert Karl Emil Nikka tells us that the search engine Kagi, popular among tech geeks, uses Russian Yandex, which was introduced after the full-scale invasion. This, of course, gives Russia the opportunity to look at what is searched for via Kagi.
