Now they are spinning a 90s style downsizing as the AI revolution. AI is not making content for this game, no one is, because they were fired.

How much useless stuff must run in background to cut battery life by a 2.5x factor? By any means, it's a colossal difference...
Hi I'm Clippy. It looks like you are trying to play a video game, I can help with that.
Let's get started backing up your files to One Drive.

It looks and sounds like they wanted to make something good and not just another windows piece of junk, like most others so far. Good luck to ZOTAC. I hope they do well with this and push others to do better.

I can’t wait for all the wonderful features, that needing to show a perpetual quarterly profit increase brings. We have seen over and over how great going public is for users. I am sure it will be different this time.
“I'm confident that passing the torch to Humam is the right evolution for Discord's future.” LOL

Corporations are consolidating and taking employee options away. How do they change jobs, when there are so few other employers to work for? It is good to see employees consolidate to get a better contract.

I like this idea; it is good to see this information. I have not been able to understand what I can’t share a game or song with a friend, but billionaires can steal the whole internet (including pirated materials) and earn money from it.

Amazon's previous VP of Prime Gaming said they "tried everything" to disrupt Steam

Can anyone imagine the level of control Amazon would force on users, if they had the market share of Steam? They would end up killing their own business. All corporate decisions would be based on saving money. Eg. It is cheaper to support only one OS. It is cheaper to support only one video card.
I like that Steam seems to have a lighter touch with their control.
I also like that Gabe took on M$ when they thought we would all want to buy everything from their Windows 8 store.
