4GB of DDR4 is a lot worse than 8GB of DDR3. Those (slightly) older business SFF computers are plenty capable compared to the pi and their software support is at least as strong.
You're also going to have to add several peripherals to the pi that aren't included in the price.
Valve wants nothing more than for other devices to ship Steam OS. They make some money on them, especially more expensive tiers, but the purpose is to allow people to play more games on PC instead of consoles, and in particular Linux so they're less reliant on Microsoft.
They don't actually care who sells the hardware.
It will never get ruled on because the core concept is so obscenely unconstitutional that it doesn't matter.
HDR stands for high dynamic range. It means you can have detail in shadows and highlights without losing detail in the middle.
At the end of the day, it's just how your computer or console talks to the display. It doesn't change what your display is capable of. It can't magically make colors more vibrant, for example. What it does instead, with a quality display, is allow you to make specific colors more vibrant while keeping their detail, without losing it elsewhere. It should usually be subtle, except in specific showcases designed to push the edges of what HDR can do.
It also doesn't make a mediocre display not mediocre. If it can't accurately present the whole range, receiving it doesn't help a lot.
Edit: oh, didn't realize this is the steam deck sub. You probably can get actual feedback on the quality of the display, then. But it will still really only make a difference to quality if the developers made a specific effort to utilize it. Realistically, that's mostly on high quality lighting the steam deck can't really do.
If they didn't have the authority, why did you settle with them?
Noticing you failed to abide by the settlement you agreed to isn't new authority.
Even perfectly implemented DRM steals cycles that can't possibly benefit any gamer ever in any way.
I thought this was going to be "they added new lines to the main characters using AI to fake their voices" and that would have been reasonable.
But I see no mention of that. It looks like someone just made a story that you can play in their world and they're being douchebags again.
I agree with the point, but US-wise, especially if you aren't even the site actually as the source of truth for the community, you almost definitely don't go to court unless you counterclaim. If you get a claim and nuke the offending communities in response (assuming you don't have tools to block specific posts in the communities, but that would also work), you have protections built in.
Kids have no need for any of those. There is an adult in charge who is responsible for emergency situations.
Yes, it absolutely should be unconditionally banned in the classroom, with substantial disciplinary action for the first offense. No, the example they gave is not even sort of a justification. Anything that results in the student leaving early goes through the office, and nothing that doesn't result in them leaving early can possibly require them to have a phone during the day.
No, a phone is absolutely not a tool in the classroom. It is a massive distraction. The idea of using the absolutely disgusting shitshow that is modern LLM tech in an educational setting is even more disgusting and anti-learning. Students that need accommodations should be getting actual accommodations, not a cheap facsimile that make it impossible for a class to function because of the massive distraction.
You should absolutely not be permitted to have a phone on your person in a classroom setting before college, let alone to interact with it.
Confiscating banned items is not theft. They are fully and unconditionally entitled to remove distractions and your kid absolutely does not and cannot have a right to have a phone in class.
One ten minute appointment or phone scan in exchange for a much better fit is a bad trade to you?
Some percentage of revenue for using other people's IP is pretty normal.
And I think it's hard to argue Baldur's Gate and using DnD isn't a meaningful part of its success. Divinity Original Sin 2 is a really good game with a lot of the same DNA (it's why I personally bought BG3), and it stayed pretty niche. The IP is a big part of it exploding.
