  With the "everything is an Xbox mantra, there's no reason to have a capable PC and an Xbox anymore. I don't mind waiting for PS games on my PC either, leaving only Nintendo still having some appeal.

  They can be waterproof but are also non functional until the water is fully cleared from the port.

  Hashtags used to be placed inline due to character limits. That's much less of an issue now, and many people place useful tags below their post to make their content easier to read while also remaining more discoverable.

  I think all they can really say is it's not on the near horizon, but every public company will enshittify at some point.

  So many of the games I want to play run on Linux now, I no longer have a Windows install available to play this with EAs incompatible anti-cheat. It's a pity, but I'm not going back.

  It's a weird hill to die on, but you're absolutely entitled to do it.
