They require a stupid launcher nobody wants that logs into Ubisoft Connect, and they use Denuvo for all their games, never removing it even cheap indie games released more than a decade ago (like Scott Pilgrim).
It's a pity they have some good games (like Prince of Persia The Lost Crown) I'll never play because of this abuse on the PC platform.
But they were making games I will not play, since they are meta exclusives and I am never purchasing anything from Meta.
Sure your coders will be really engaged with 1 million lines of Rust code per month per dev.
I already switched to LibreWolf. Thanks for these two decades Firefox, but I don't recognize you now.
Any PCB design engineer will tell you this is BS. When you do the PCB layout you do not use "the laws of physics". You use concepts that have many ramifications, like "signal integrity" (use transmission lines with an uninterrupted return path, match the length of buses/pairs, compute impedances required by each specific interface), power delivery networks (PDN, watch out for copper width/thickness, design proper decoupling according to how each component works (frequency, di/dt draw, etc), avoid shared return paths with high inductance, etc.), and many more.
While you could argue that in the end everything is physics, using physics for this does not make sense, the same that for example you could use Maxwell equations to design the lenses for your glasses, but nobody would do that.
With the AI sucking all GPUs first and now RAM and SSD chips, hardware will get more expensive. And software pricing does not help. Yesterday I was browsing my Steam wrapped, and I only played 2% of games released in 2025. With new AAA games costing 80â or more (because of game passes and the like), I prefer playing grames from my backlog or buying good old games in sale.
But after reading about the training, I am not doubtful at all, it's 100% lies: "The AI behind this tool is basically trained by playing an optimization game against the laws of physics."
Any PCB design engineering will tell you this is genuine BS.
Every time they release an "AI" feature or comment they'll use the tech, user opinions are awful everywhere: on their forums, on the linked article comments, on comments from news aggregators, on social networks... But yeah, let's bet the future of the browser already on a really difficult situation on the tech nobody wants on a browser.
They've been working on FEX since 2016. So it will be 10 years of development before a commercial product using the tech is out. Their long term focus is really something I cannot see on any other big tech, they always look only to the short term to please investors. And the difference is paying. While every big tech is shoving AI down your throat on everything to get every penny they can before the bubble bursts (and BTW losing billions unless you are NVIDIA), Valve is once again revolutionizing PC gaming market and solidifying its core business.
But if you think about Linux as an OS (what some would call GNU/Linux), you cannot include Android and ChromeOS on that list, sorry. So yeah, it's 3.5% + some of that 4.2% in the unknown, but no idea how much.
Steam has its own problems, but it has an almost flawless reputation because most of the time Valve sides with customers. If Valve has put this label is because many customers want it.
It's not that difficult Mr. Sweeney. If you want people to use the Epic Games Store, you have to make users perceive they get greater value when purchasing games there instead of on Steam. The free games are nice, but just that will not be enough to convert those gifts to purchases.
