    That part came from talking about Valve opening SteamOS up to more than just the Steam Deck or other OEM partner devices.

    Valve will “let you” download an image and slap it on a desktop, laptop, smart toaster, or any other x86 based computer.

        Valve is making their distribution more readily available to every device, rather than locking into their ecosystem

        That sound any better Mr. Contrarian? They’re doing a good thing, don’t let the language get in the way

          Any company that doesn’t make everything free is terrible obviously. Never mind the fact that a major company is making an effort to not just use, but improve and support Linux for consumers in a huge way.

          Screw them for not doing more for FOSS software I guess.

          Not really.

          don’t let the language get in the way

          Your suggestion is to avoid criticising poor reportage? Why?

            You’re not giving criticism by rolling your eyes at the language. You’re bitching about it. Giving criticism would require that you also explain why it’s wrong and how to do better.

                  Because bitching doesn’t accomplish anything

                  Why does the fact that it doesn’t accomplish anything mean one shouldn’t do it?

                    Bro this is really how you want to behave? Like this is the type of person you want to be? This is the way you think you should interact with the world? Why?
