No, the fact it's technically legal doesn't mean you have to make it easy for them.

If they could stop blocking real users at the same time they block AI crawlers, that would be nice.

While this is bad for the market, it's also entirely expected.

Xbox have been producing sub-par hardware with names no one can remember and barely any exclusives, it was only a matter of time.

To other Europeans : do you know anyone who owns an Xbox ? I've only ever had one single friend in middle school who had a 360. I've never seen any other model outside of an electronics store.

Their current gen is hamstrung by the existence of the Series S, and the utter lack of features in their controllers (no gyroscope or any motion sensors ? No advanced rumble ? No touchpad ?). No one who is serious about controller gaming buys an Xbox controller, especially because of the lack of gyro.

Their dedication to digital-only and pushing the games pass also alienates anyone who wishes to play physical games and/or offline.

It sounds like a cool distro but I don't see any advantages compared to NixOS, aside from maybe the option to make it more minimal for constrained environments.

They kinda murdered the game for me when they made it so easy to switch servers during play and avoid ever fighting anyone...

"Won't support Lemmy" is a bit strong, but we should probably de-federate lemmy.ml

Bold of you to assume I am American, did you not check the instance I am from ?

Yes, there are many lies about China, but don't get stuck in second opinion syndrome. China is both worse and better than you know.

The fact the government lies about China, while China is still bad behind the scenes, can both be true. During the cold war, both sides accused the other of being evil, and both were right.

Don't let anyone who puts a "communist" sticker on their own forehead fool you into supporting them.

China bad. US bad. Russia bad.

All three can be true at the same time. (And they are)

When I used Fedora for a while with my 2070 I had literally no problems at all 🤷🏻‍♀️

Check your games on ProtonDB

The only games in my library that don't work are entirely the publisher's fault for blacklisting Linux in their anticheat, and it's very few games even then.

This is why I chose to get a Corsair Virtuoso, which has a removable microphone.
