I started having arguments online back on Fidonet and Usenet. I’m too tired to care now.

“Scene don’t work for free”
It’s been ~35 years since I cracked games but we most certainly did everything “for free” back then (or, “for bragging rights” as it were).
I seriously doubt things are that much different now. I’d wager you’re one step removed from “the scene” and only seeing shady repacks from scammers.
True, thanks. WIPO has made sure differences between national patent laws, if any, are minor.
What the Law requires for an inventive step?
a patent shall not be granted for an invention where a person ordinarily skilled in the art could have been easily make the invention based on the prior art at the time of filing. Thus, the law requires that a patentable invention should involve such an inventive step that the skilled person could not have made the invention based on the prior art at the time of filing.
Free legal advise to Nintendo:
A patent may not be obtained though the invention is not identically disclosed or described as set forth in section 102, if the differences between the subject matter sought to be patented and the prior art are such that the subject matter as a whole would have been obvious at the time the invention was made to a person having ordinary skill in the art to which said subject matter pertains. Patentability shall not be negatived by the manner in which the invention was made.
IIRC when Tramiel bought Atari their vision was all about the 16/32 bit computers but did quite a few things to bring in cash based on the existing Atari designs - and chips. That’s the Atari 65 and 130XE too just being rehashes of older 8 bit Bushnell computers.
I’m all Tramiel-Atari era myself so never even reflected on the 8 bit re-releases though so I might be misremembering something.
… I get that this is a REALLY important topic to you - but the article also explains how the PS5 is much more expensive (inflation adjusted) at this point in time compared to the PS4. That’s very much part of “doing well”.
Also, that the PS4 numbers are included is no different from the PS3 before - and your claim was that Sony was losing customers at that.
Take the L.
I prefer facts to gut feelings.
Sony said its monthly active gaming users for the year ended April 1, 2025, were up 5% at 124 million users, which is the highest in PlayStation’s history.

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.
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?
let’s say that you can only trust iPhone as “paradigm of safety” (lol)
Feel free to research the consensus opinion by cybersecurity professionals instead of just continously showing off your own ignorance.
what are your kids doing that need of the highest tier phone to guarantee the highest level of security
They, as human beings, have the right to their privacy.
You just answered my previous question; “Do you consider kids to be actual people?”; and the answer is apparently “no”.
Btw, you don’t get the newest high end iPhone for 900 EUR. You might want to get a lot more facts behind your arguments before trying to show off online.
I’m not sure a kid should be playing those. But hey, I guess pegi ratings are a lie…
Yeah. The US is the nanniest country on Earth and those ratings are indeed laughable.
Regarding your cybersec knowledge, the safest for regular consumers are iPhones.
You might want to ponder whether you know as much about the world as you think you do.
Nintendo can make sure their handheld has affordable hardware yet can play all their AAA games as they were meant to. Steam Deck can’t ever have that luxury. Some Steam Deck makers will make expensive ones that can play most of them, some will make cheaper ones that aren’t made for those games at all.
This is very difficult to explain to the casual buyer (think parents buying as a present for their kids).
I’ve linked to two different instances of people talking about it, there are of course many more. Thus why I asked you how big this conspiracy of yours would be for all of them to be lying.
What do you see when reading this?

“litigation” is not really how we usually talk about consumer’s rights in Europe though. As the article clearly states:
the legal framework in Europe is much more protective of users. The corresponding laws understand that disabling a device for unauthorized access to software is an excessive and illegal measure.

(afaik Pedro Pascal isn’t a black woman but maybe I’m out of the loop)
It’s very important to you that the claims about racism and misogyni aren’t true, correct? Why?
How big is this conspiracy of yours?

Could be - or, you know, all that documented racist misogyni.

(all of that used)
… however, I originally bought it all for a virtual pinball build so I’m sure it could be done better with Bazzite in mind from the start.
I went with a white+birch Lian Li A3-mATX to get something barely good looking enough to fit with the rest of the gaming room.
