As much as it pains me to say it, the Switch 2's short battery life is a real bummer

I understand if you hate on steam along with Microsoft and Nintendo but you why are you shilling for them?
I don’t hate on anyone, I literally have some hardware from all of the major companies. It’s possible to have different opinions on different things they do. They are products of corporations that are so huge and internally disconnected that end result can be inconsistent so that’s just how things are. Of course all exist for profit so I rarely get angry with consequences of capitalism unless taken to extreme.
Today’s Valve is scummiest of all, very little redeeming qualities and that’s my honest opinion, not being contrarian. It irks me doubly because they are so idolised. Valve monopolised PC digital storefronts. They don’t make games, they make digital casinos. They market those casinos to children. They have a history of abandoning things. The only reason they fund Wine development is to safeguard and entrench their monopoly even further. It was CodeWeavers and not Valve that sponsored Wine development through difficult times. In 10-15 years, if they are successful in their plans, they’ll turn SteamOS into something like modern day Android, another locked down platform with no major benefit to desktop Linux. I’ll be there with „told you so” but that actually gives me no kick.
