You're comparing a war currently being played by Russia, destroying their own country by the way, to past wars.

During the past year and a half, the US has bombed Iran, Venezuela, Iraq, Yemen and Mexico. It has provided free bombs to a country that has been bombing Palestine (genocide), Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Iran.

It has kidnapped the leader of a country and assassinated the leader of another country.

It has pirated all oil shipments to Cuba, causing a severe crisis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_United_States_fuel_blocka...

The US invaded Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam, Syria, Latin America etc.

The list is too long. So here's a link showing the list of invasions, bombings, and CIA-backed regime-change operations in other countries:

The estimates are that the US has killed between 20 and 30 million people after WWII.

And these are just direct kills. The figure is much higher if you count indirect kills through means of economic sanctions.

We basically got rid of our armies in Europe, since everybody knows how to live in peace.

Wrong. The UK and France have several military bases in the middle east, thousands of kilometers away from home.

The NATO invasion of Libya is an example of how Europeans "know how to live in peace"

Ladybird is still in early development. They don't provide binaries.

I don't think it's fair to deem it "dogshit" at this point.

Users who played it on the steam deck disagree

That's GTA online.

The single player mode is playable under Linux without anticheat.

GTA V already runs on the steam deck. Even the enhanced edition does https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtKjHSn9a5U

Your comment surprised me given GTA V can run on Intel HD 4000 at 40fps with tweaked settings https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fo2qGdXnabk Which is not so surprising given GTA V is over a decade old at this point.

Indeed, their 10 year old flagship has 6GB of RAM.

Steam is not an alternative if you hate digital only games.

GOG is the alternative. It sells DRM-free games

Since 2018 they've been making two releases per year. One in March and one in September.

The stats collection is opt-in

Also, the [Cyberpunk 2077] developer owns the GOG storefront and so 100% of your profits go directly to them.

That's no longer the case since a few months: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46422412

You can doubt that they will, but that’s just hope rather than a legal or technical guarantee.

It's not based on a legal or technical guarantee. But it's based on what Sony did in the past:

P.T. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P.T._(video_game) ) was pulled from the PS store. But Sony didn't make it unplayable if it was already installed. In fact, the wikipedia article says:

After the cancellation, PlayStation 4 consoles with P.T. installed were listed on eBay for over $1,000

1. An Xbox Live/Playstation Plus is required for any online multiplayer functionality.

This is false. Free-to-Play titles like Fortnite don't require a subscription to play online.

Is there any evidence of this?

They can delist a game from the PS store, but I doubt they would make a game unplayable if it's already installed or if you own it physically.

It will probably have one for backwards compatibility with ps4 and ps5 disc games

Emulation requires the ability to dump games.

And dumping games requires a jailbreak.

That's why there's no switch 2 emulation as of now.

https://bullfincher.io/companies/apple/revenue-by-segment

iPhone: 50.4%

Mac: 8.1%

iPad: 6.7%

Wearables, home and accessories: 8.6%

Services: 26.2%

I assume that the majority of service revenue is App store revenue.

Other services they provide are iCloud and Apple care

linux-asahi is available in Void Linux:

https://voidlinux.org/download/#arm%20platforms

It's a regular package of linux in the distro: https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/tree/master/srcp...

I don't like that online play is gated behind a subscription. But you mentioned the wrong price and I was simply pointing that out.

A PS5 disk can hold as much as 100GB, and they could use multiple disks if necessary.

Playstation plus essential is $80 per year
