I can only assume that is the main reason for this change. Pitty.

It's great and all (it really is), but the target audience was just presented factorio 2.0 (and space age), so we're busy for a few months.

This would be a good time to remember that horse armor that caused a shit storm for fishing like 5$ or something. Good times.

If a game has Denuvo, I will just not buy it. Ever. I won't even consider it until it's removed. Thankfully it doesn't happen too often that games that interest me have it, but it does happen.

Since this can't be quantified, because there is no real way to get numbers on people that do this or similar things (except for "wild guessing"), three big ones (being public or backed by traditional investors) can't make an argument for not having it. So here we are.

Kinda wanted to pick the game up at some point. Weird, I seem to have suddenly lost all interest. Huh.

This also makes it easy to block Win 10 from upgrading to 11, just disable tpm in BIOS. From where I'm sitting, that's kinda convenient.

The core lesson should be "stop adding useless launchers" and even more so "stop making launchers the only way to change graphics settings". I'm glad the steam deck has rules in place that prevent games with a forced launcher to receive a "verified".

That's what I'm taking away from this anyway.

Much simpler and more direct than the other suggestions: LocalSend.

Also fully open source, local only, cross platform. Only works in the same network, obviously. That's the point.

What low voltage though? Unless it's 5V like USB (non-PD and non-QC), they should and need to be incompatible.

Literally never heard of it, which is probably the reason and kinda makes it a good call?

For those that really don't know: Star Trek TNG, episode "the inner light", S5E25.

I have multiple dozens of headphones that have a normal headphone plug.

I can charge my phone while I listen to headphones without carrying multiple adapters.

We can maybe talk once we get more than 1 USB c connector on a phone. Maybe.
