Yep, pure nonsense. Also any claims to "computing power" are pure lies at this time. QCs are not more than physics experiments and may never be more.

So crying "China!" is once again misplaced.

Indeed. And they even do things like let you register games bought elsewhere and then install and launch them via STEAM. The main difference is that STEAM is not primarily driven by short-sighted greed and actually tries to deliver a good product first.

And they never lost sight of their users. That is why it is still there and efforts to sabotage and replace it have failed, despite Valve actually being not very large.

It is a freaking MAP, not a conversation.

You have never head of "divide and conquer", I take it? It is a thing in engineering and Science as well. It means that you do NOT try to do everything at once because that does not work.

Are you on drugs? Your comment makes no sense at all.

What is it with you people, always trying to claim you are right, when clearly you are not? How do you ever learn anything?

Yep. MS is only about 20 years (or more) behind on this one.

And crapware as well.

I do not see that this makes them a "threat". It makes them scientists: They state projections with border conditions. Nothing wrong with that. That these border conditions are exceptionally unlikely to happen with this really crappy installment of the human race is a different problem.

Good luck with that. We cannot even agree not to do wars that are essentially just stealing from others.

FLASH is chip-stacking, not layer stacking. Fundamentally different.

I have not had mod points in a long time. But I do not mind, because if I care enough to read, I care enough to comment.

And why do you think I overlooked that? Yes, people in some regions getting worse-than-possible service, much of the US among them. They still get "good enough" and they can just connect to it, no configuration needed. And that is why there is no drive from consumers to change anything.
