This kind of thing is the reason I've started moving completely away from Microsoft platforms, including Windows. Microsoft is getting more and more invasive and aggressive pushing advertising onto people in their own private spaces, and that is unacceptable.
Since I'm a PC gamer first and foremost, I don't use XBox... and after this, I won't. Ever. This was just MS dipping their toes in to see if they could get away with it.
Thankfully, with Valve continuing to rapidly improve Proton, just about any Windows game runs on Linux now with very little elbow grease. No Microsoft necessary.
So… evil.

Unity's official response to those questions as of a few hours ago is akin to "we have ways... trust us."
Steam Deck's secret sauce is the software. Steam Deck's software isn't all OSS yet (it's NOT the same as the publicly available SteamOS), so the alternatives are all running on Windows which... is not good (especially for a handheld).
Honestly, just get a Steam Deck. The "power" differences are just not meaningful at that form factor right now.
Huh. I guess even Fascists can get a thing right once in a while.
In Murica we only eat beef-based rice! What’s next? Plant-based beer?

Can someone explain how/why the Brits appear to be turning into Texans?
Right-wingers are masters of both escalation and creating long-term, multi-generational consequences.
What is so hard to understand about “murder bad, apartheid bad”?
