If you have the hardware for it, you can set up moonlight and sunshine and make your own open source cloud gaming setup. I'm getting very close to moving my primary desktop into a server case and putting it in my rack and setting up a thin client for access at my desk. I have easy access to my steam library and can stream 4k in my home with very low latency, and it can do 1080p over a mobile connection

They never said it wasn't, just that we should start with the 1% and only once they are back down to a realistic wealth level do we start taxing people who are working class. At a decent pay rate (100k/yr) a million is achievable over a career, a billion is not and can only be had through consolidation of wealth.

Trump is a figurehead and mouth piece only, it's clear the backing and power behind him is pushing him, not the other way around. If Trump is dead or unelectable then they will sub in someone else. Trump's "saving grace" is that he was good at speaking in a relatable but obfuscating way which worked to foment the masses against imagined grievances, but that's not a trait unique to him. He is unfortunately replaceable with not much loss in momentum.

They never will because then they would need to give valve a cut for the micro transaction purchases made in the ubisoft launcher. Also they lose that advertising platform

They meant you see video evidence of it on YouTube, not go yourself.

Aircraft Maintenance Controller, I coordinate and advise on the maintenance operations for a fleet of cargo 737's and 767's. It's a lot of auditing and making sure everything is done right, but also troubleshooting advice and on the operations side it's a lot of making a plan to keep the flight schedule as intact as possible while still handling maintenance issues.

Dishonored series was pretty good at offering and rewarding a peaceful playthtrough. It was definitely the more difficult option but usually worth it.

I think that would also see an eventual reduction in device costs eventually as more people will be unable to pay the premium costs of a flagship device. Or the mid tier devices will start selling more, androids popularity will probably rise too, matching the rest of the world

It's only a thing if you are on some form of lease plan where you don't own it outright. Pretty much every carrier in the US sells phones on a monthly payment for the device, which usually is just the cost of the device spread over 30 months, etc. While the device is still not paid off its carrier locked. After its paid off you need to jump through a few hoops but it's honestly not too hard. I'm not sure what the FCC is hoping to accomplish here, it's a similar arrangement to leasing/financing a vehicle, where the dealership holds the title till it's bought/paid off.
