But what you’re saying is that it is to provide people with an alternative path from windows.

Even if the steam machine had windows on it, the majority of the same people would buy it.

My point is very few people are going to buy the steam machine to get away from windows

“Steam says this works for everything I own” Purchased no matter what.

Not “I want a new PC without windows, let me try out the new steam machine”

I agree with you.

But my point is someone that bought a W10 pre-built computer is not the person looking at the steam machine saying “Maybe a different operating system would improve my experience”

Yes it does but you only get put in a crossplay lobby if your party is mixed.

On top of going against m/kb players, aim assist for controller is turned off.

It’s really not that enjoyable and highlights why controllers and m/kb shouldn’t be mixed.

It’s like talking a snowboard to a ski jump contest. Snowboards are fun and can do a lot of different things than skis. And in a contest where everyone is snowboarding it’s great. But you’ll never win a jumping contest.

Ehh

I feel like most people that really care about their operating system are more than likely going to build a PC

Most people buying a pre-built device are like Apple users “It just works”

I have an expensive PC I built but I’m a console gamer

I enjoy a comfy couch, big TV, and controller.

It’s the ease of just hitting a couple buttons and getting to play a game.

Could I hook my PC to my TV? Yes, but that would require me to move my PC from my desk.

Also things like controllers. If I hooked my PC to my TV to play something like Overwatch I’d have to play with m/kb people which I would be at a severe disadvantage if I played with a controller.

Like if Xbox overwatch allowed m/kb (yeah I know people cheat) I’d probably stop playing it.

It’s the PC gamers that always want consoles to support m/kb. Console gamers do not want to play on m/kb.

In my mind lack of m/kb is why consoles exist

People aren’t buying PS/Xbox for a living room PC. They want a console gaming experience

Where’s the lemon party?

Thing is you can’t make everyone happy.

Daylight savings time sole objective is to move 1 hour of sunlight in the morning to the evening.

I’m not sure how it’s supposed to help farmers unless they want to sleep in and work an extra hour into the evening. I think that it helping farmers is more of a myth.

So much of DST is misunderstood

Most people I have heard hate daylight savings time because “the sun sets so early in the winter”

Yet that’s the outcome of not staying on permanent DST. Winter is standard time.

Others hate the switch. Once again it’s because we don’t stay permanently on one.

I’m with you though, I enjoy the extra hour of sunlight in the evening.

Let’s look at NY city.

June 21th longest day, sunrise is at 5:24 am (Set 8:31 pm)

December 21th longest night, sunrise is at 6:42 am (Set 4:32 pm)

If you got rid of daylight savings time then the sun would rise at 4:24 am in June and set at 7:31 pm.

(Most people in NY probably want the extra hour of light at 7:31 pm instead of 4:24 am)

If you kept permanent daylight savings then the sun would rise at 7:42 am in December and set at 5:32 pm)

(Most people in NY probably want some light before 8 because it’s going to be dark after dinner anyways)

So many people are awake before 8 am compared to 5 am

So many people enjoy the light at 7:30 pm in the summer

Switching really is the sweet spot for NY

Location is definitely important too in hating or liking DST

Ontonagon, Mi sun sets at 5:25 pm tonight (7:58 am rise)

Dexter, Me sun sets at 4:10 pm tonight (6:33 am rise)

Same time zone, both northern cities.

If we didn’t get off DST Ontonagon wouldn’t see the sunrise until almost 9 am today

People in Dexter might have preferred to stay on DST getting light between 7:33 am to 5:10 pm today

The farther west you live in a time zone the less you like DST generally. Farther east, the more you like it.

Ontonagon is so west it should really be in Central Time zone.

If that was the case then the sun would set at 4:25 pm tonight (6:58 am rise) (basically Dexter ME times)

At that point they might want to stay on DST and it would make it exactly what it was today, sunset at 5:25 pm tonight (7:58 am rise)

Should just have dimes.

$1.1 $1.2 $1.3

There’s no reason to break our currency into thousandths. Hardly a reason to break it into hundredths.

Could keep quarters to keep hundredths

Transactions already need a nickel to do 5 cents. So requiring a quarter to do 5 cents isn’t crazy.

Say you have to pay $1.05

Dollar and 3 dimes, quarter in change.

$1.15

Dollar and a quarter, dime in change.

But I think just dimes are needed

You’ve never seen Maximum Overdrive
