Seems pretty clear from context, China is an autocratic state well known to engage in censorship when it fits the party's desires.

Your whataboutism isn't really useful here, I'm just responding to the question about China. The point of his response was that there isn't really any place left to go. And even if your response was relevant it would be laughable, the censorship that the Chinese government perpetrates puts most other countries to shame.

Your reading comprehension is pretty low. My original comment was specifically in response to another individual questioning why the idea of hosting servers in China to escape censorship was "lol". That's it.

Looking forward to it, the first game was fantastic

They are also apparently planning to sell anti cheat, so probably want to fix their image.

I don't understand, please rephrase your question.

Also another USBC port

I switched to Bing a few months ago and really like it. It does suck how much Microsoft shoves their shit in your face tho.

I have young kids, so being able to play anywhere and still be aware of my surroundings, and being able to suspend and then pick up and play again almost immediately has meant I've been able to actually play long form singleplayer games. It's the single best gaming purchase I've ever made.

I just didn't understand the way your question was worded because it was garbled. I don't have any reason to host a data server and I don't live in China, so you got me, I've never been personally impacted by Chinese government censorship and repression. Obviously that means it doesn't exist, QED.

But oh, as long as I make sure not to upset anyone rich or in power I would be fine, don't worry. Do you ever read what you type?

Strawman city over here. I do not despise China or the Chinese people. I have actually visited China and loved my time there, the people I met, and the food I ate. I think it is a beautiful country with wonderful people and a rich history. I can also recognize that their autocratic ruling party represses and censors their citizens, and I don't think that is a good thing. I wish the best for China and truly hope that some day, all their citizens will be able to express themselves freely.

If you contact steam support they may give you a store credit for the difference

I cry every time. I don't understand why some indie dev hasn't created a mechanical rip off yet, imagine battlebit but instead of battlefield it's tribes. I want to believe it would be huge.

Yep, I've tried a bunch and always go back to Microsoft to do, it is almost perfect.

Yep, heroic is fantastic

Yep, we need universal right to repair/ease of repair regulations to stem all the electronic waste.

Parent protip, the u shaped breast feeding support pillows also make perfect steam deck support pillows

Just finished horizon zero dawn, now playing Metroid prime remastered

It would be nice to have it covered in a phone warranty or something. Would like to also see legislation requiring software updates for 5 years, is kind of silly how fast devices are considered obsolete by their manufacturers. Even Microsoft supports Windows versions for like 10 years.

Do you mean you can force a game in the Linux steam client to run using wine instead of proton? How?

Ok thanks, that's pretty neat. I tried enabling that option and updating the runner for the steam game but it didn't do anything. Oh well.

+1, there are some things I wish were different but overall Microsoft To Do is a great app.
