But you can't say X + Y is better than Z (by itself)
I mean, yeah, you absolutely can. Especially when X + Y and Z are both common configurations, and using X or Y by themselves is uncommon or a known bad setup.
Sure, you can't be certain which of X or Y is making the differences in the comparison, but the comparison can absolutely be made.
(ABI? Idk)
Application Brogramming Interface?
In a nutshell, interpolated frames are basically just extra generated frames that go between the frames outputted by the video game itself. They're used to combat things like motion blur, and to make animations look smoother.
Do you also support gay people on your service by letting them organize and run a gay pride event on your service? Or is having to witness people celebrating gay pride too much for your delicate sensibilities?
Brick and mortar shops aren't comparable to websites, and I don't know why you keep trying to compare them. The places that sell alcohol and tobacco aren't asking me to upload a digital version of my legal identification to some cloud-backed database. They're just manually checking a date and a picture. Most places I buy from don't even make me physically hand over my ID, I can just show it to them without it ever leaving my possession.
How about we put some responsibility on parents to keep their kids away from potentially harmful Internet content, instead of relying on the state to do it for us in large swathes, affecting literally anyone who goes to those sites, legally or not? Surely you're more on board with responsible parenting than everyone having to hand over their legal identification to a fucking porn site.
The steam deck has great battery life (better than my original switch by a lot) unless you're playing something super heavy, and it's so much more comfortable to hold that the bit of extra weight isn't that big a deal. I don't think I've touched my switch since I got a deck
They sell gameplay and not graphics and that’s timeless.
No, they keep rehashing the same like 4 IPs over and over, feeding off the nostalgia kick people get out of their favorite childhood video game releasing on a modern console
Hey, that's not completely fair. They added a C-button that activates GameChat, so you can take up space on an already small screen to watch your friends stream their face or their game at 9 frames per second. Oh and also a microphone. Revolutionary stuff, really
Maybe I’ll get physical copies of Switch 2 games heavily discounted later on.
Later on, as in, in like 30 years? Assuming physical Switch 2 games don't become prized collector's items like every other Nintendo consoles' physical games
What if most of the people that want to pay a GOG membership are Linux gamers that would be willing to pay for official Linux support?
You can save quite a bit by getting a refurbished Pixel - looks like the cheapest "Google certified" option (so it comes with a 1-year warranty) is a 6a for $250, which is nearly half off MSRP. I've been using my 6a since launch, so it's been going for 3 years now and I have no desire to upgrade.
You can definitely get cheaper smartphones, but $250 for a 6a feels like a pretty big bang for your buck.
