They can "reserve the right" all they want, that's illegal where I live, and they sell their devices officially here. I'd love to see them trying to hold this stance in court - even Apple lost here over a similar issue, so go right ahead and try.

The Deck automatically stops charging and let's the battery drain to around 95% when plugged in anyway.

While what you said is true, you're neglecting that it's not entirely based on selfish ideations.

There are people selling courses and profiting heavily from tricking those people into thinking that these strategies work. They pretend they've won cases like this, that the loopholes are real, that many people are singing them praises. The failed attempts are just "the loud minority that screwed up the process".

If only "regret and growth" could rebuild the environment, bring back the years people spent falsely imprisoned, bring people back from the dead...

Around the same as the Steam Deck when portable, but with access to significantly better upscaling.

Such a shame FSR looks so terrible, the Steam Deck would otherwise hold up much better against it.

I'm still not going to buy one and only use my Deck though.

As an AI comment analysis engineer I'm 74% certain the above comment is not written by AI.

I mean, the game is in early access so if you bought it and are now complaining it changed... It's a you problem, not something that should be refundable.

And yet they still haven't managed to get enough people to pay the subscription costs, except the guys trying to package it as a SaaS and hoping the customers don't notice they're just a fancy middleman.

They can scale up training all they want, there's a natural price point most customers won't go over. And if you're thinking about businesses paying that extra cost because they can save money on actual workers... Sure, for a few months, and then they realize what happens when they leave their super intelligent AI agents alone for a few weeks and a website changes the default layout, breaking the entire workflow, or when an important client receives an absurd automated email, or when their AI note taker and financial planning agent is incapable of answering why $20000 disappeared.

What's your biggest strength?

The size of my enormous sack

It's good that Soulseek exists, but it's way more finicky than LimeWire was and it's significantly less user friendly

I'd love one running an ARM build of Fedora or something

Of course it is, because the point isn't whether or not they could deny doing the bare minimum - they can't.

The point is companies like LTT use a "extended warranty!", "lifetime warranty!", "never have a headache with our products in your life!" as part of their marketing, so they make these claims to change how the customer will evaluate their purchase... yet they try to get away with having undefined terms, because this way, they can actually deny the promised lifetime warranty for whatever random bullshit they come up with.

Both situations are protected in Brazilian law. Certainly the bare minimum doesn't have to be written, the law does so for you already, but any claims of further protections need to be written and can't be changed after the fact.

with Democrats on the left

Do keep in mind the most left leaning democrat you can think of would be a center-right candidate in my country. It's unfortunate that indeed you can only work with what you got, but don't be surprised when others cringe at the thought of calling your democratic party leftist.

The point is that you don’t know the first thing about American politics,

You couldn't even comprehend the point being made, misinterpreting it so fundamentally I genuinely - non-ironically - believe you struggled reading the words being written.

and are wholly unqualified to make any comments about it.

And yet, what I wrote is an aspect of democratic structures so fundamentally basic it wouldn't even matter if the US was the target of the comment. Funny how that is.

Let me hijack your comment mentioning Krita with another KDE app: Okular!

I simply can't believe a PDF app can be this performant, this fully featured, and entirely free. It even works on Windows, if you're trapped in that nightmare.

Adobe Acrobat Reader, from the people who created the PDF format, is unbelievably slow, it takes a thousand steps through an ugly UI to do anything useful, and any feature you actually care about is locked behind payment. Okular, a free tool, will load PDFs instantly, render previews flawlessly, let you edit, sign, merge, add text, select text, whatever you wish.

And KDE creates this app and a thousand others for less money than Mozilla wasted on some random bs last year. Long live KDE.
