Valve can and should release a SteamOS based, AMD powered console PC that can run GTA6 in medium settings at 60 FPS in 1080p via Proton. Not sure why they are waste time with niche products like VR...

Well, I'd probably buy a well supported Linux based VR device, but I sure wouldn't buy a SteamOS "console"/PC or whatever you might call it - because I got one, and when I need a new one, I will build it myself, like every time.

And wasn't handheld gaming PC a niche as well (and probably still is)?

If you combine both filings... a streaming client console?

I bought the '22 bundle for my children.

They finished the first of the games (Movie The Video Game) lately. :D
I think we still got enough Lego stories to play...

"Acquiring bank" seems to be very easy to misunderstand for me (no native speaker) even without any additional translation layer.

Somewhat OT: deepl.com translated surprisingly well for me (English<->German)

*edit* ...for other texts...

Forgive me but Google translate translates French very well, contrary to your assertions, I actually use it to write to you !!

On February 4, 2025, the Board of Directors of PayPal Holdings, Inc. authorized a repurchase plan.

This should be easily solvable. Such a plan would have shown up in English as well. Actually, I'm sure they would be obliged to publish this e.g. in the US. So, if it's true, there must be an English publication about it. Please show it.

I thought the original was French, not English, so... nevermind.

Wonder how long the UK government will keep this running. What happens if money becomes tight or the Tories take power again?

The law has been passed by the Torries.

What happens when you've got poor credit and no active credit cards? Like if you lose a job due to no fault of your own, can't pay your bills anymore, and that tanks your credit?

... or if you just don't want a credit card, like me.

Just to those worried that Proton kills native ports. That may be true, but I'll remind you that...

Many of the native ports lag behind
Or, they're buggy

I wonder why people keep saying that, and I keep experiencing the opposite.
I have good experiences with my game collection, consisting of some 400 games, > 90% of them being native games.
(So, you're really not "reminding" me of anything.)

Might be a matter of preferred genres. I'm mainly playing point and click and puzzle games.
I also usually play a game until it's finished and don't come back.
There's enough new stuff to play.

But other things i really hate about it, like the way we count. 53 in german is "three-and-fifty". It must be a horrible language to learn for migrants.

It's also terrible for my native German kids...

But...

Ever learned French? :D

Quatre-vingt-dix-neuf
(Four-twenty-ten-nine),
because
4 * 20 + 10 + 9 = 99
