It can definitely be done.

But when all the actual experts who do it every day are telling you "fuck that shit; it's too much work", it's probably a pain in the ass.

Do you know what open source means?

They're not relying on Valve's goodwill. The license explicitly permits this.

Nintendo can't get emulators that actually are for the primary purpose of bypassing their restrictions (even if doing so on legitimately purchased games is perfectly legal) shut down, and this company thinks they can close a fucking reader because it's possible some people might use it with pirated copies of their IP?🤣

Steam doesn't enforce anything. They provide a very weak opt-in DRM that they literally tell developers they should expect will by bypassed. There are plenty of actual DRM free games on Steam.

People use Steam instead of GoG because Steam works and provides a wide array of value adding features and GoG doesn't.

This isn't "his doctor". It's an independent doctor making an evaluation for the purpose of determining if he's competent to stand trial. It's not private.

Anticheat.

The casual friendly hyper-monetized nonsense that needs to install malware to "ensure fair play" (or sell loot boxes and spy on you) doesn't run.

Sure, but the points don't buy anything real, so might as well use them if you like one.

Apple already did though. Even specifically replacing Intel chips because Intel's offering was dogshit that was destroying their ability to offer the design they wanted with their stupid power draw.

The rest of ARM is behind, and Windows has done a shit job of ARM support, but that doesn't mean that's forever.

I'm skeptical of any article like this on its face. The whole beauty of a well done RPG, especially a CRPG, is that you get choices on how to build your character and how you handle encounters and can be successful with many of them.

If bard is the most fun for you, awesome. If it's "objectively better", the game is flawed.

Malware labeled "anticheat software" that wants obscene access to low level OS information and is a massive security liability.

Opt out is not acceptable under any circumstances. It's not your data. It's your users'.

Sending a single bit back without an explicit, uncoerced opt in should be illegal.

Call their bluff. Let them kick everyone with a "final warning that they aren't allowed to be NSFW. Let's see them supply enough mods to keep porn off of everything.
