Gotta lift a different issue here.

There are other Olympics event that can be directly traced as product placement?

Because, let's assume that the esport picked is Fortnite... wouldn't be the whole event a big ads for Epic (I am sure they would also put big money to lobby hard in this)?

Olympics are expected to promote products with ads, billboards and whatever... but the event itself?

If your political stance on this is to just shut up... well, honor your political stance and...just shut up.

This is people who don't fall into this crap telling people that did fall into this crap simply: "you don't deserve this: let's fight your, and our, way out".

People who fall for this crap, is giving resource to the crappiest companies: and with money, the crappiest companies can buy their way back also on you.

I think the "Microsoft dilemma" is between Making Some Money vs. Take All The Money.

If they publish a bunch of successful games on Steam or on Playstation, they will make Some Money, compared to games published exclusive to Xbox, where they can make All The Money.

By acquiring studios they are making sure that good franchises "don't make all the money... yet" (on competing platform like Steam, Playstation or Switch, but also Android/iOS)

They could make good games exclusive for Xbox, but given how relatively unsuccessful is the Xbox platform, compared to Switch and Playstation, it would mean that very expensive (to make) games will bleed money

is the reason why you don't see "bandicam" watermark on modern videgame footage.

Don't forget the cutshare

29 = (8.7 to Valve) (20.3 Pocket)

7m are on Xbox, so the count is:

Pocket = 243.6 m (on 12m copies sold)

Valve = 104.4 m ( on 12m copies sold)

It would be interesting to see an overall data, considered many part of the world (like China) consoles like Playstation and Xbox aren't even a thing.

sorry for posting a trashy article, but title was so trashy-click bait that got its own merit.

Driver for VGA/HDMI?

How much minimal that kernel is?

How much of that do we think is down to the steamdeck? (and I guess similar form factor alternatives)

GPU VanGogh (the name Steam gives to SteamDeck GPU) is currently ~40% of the whole Linux userbase on Steam; so, yeah. pretty much everything.

I guess Intel dropping the ball on being competitive for a couple of generations probably hasn’t helped either

Intel has never been competitive in terms of GPUs. PCs running Intel iGPUs are machines waiting for a 'real' GPU and the like. Intel Arcs are relatively too young to have a significant weight in the totality of the userbase: naturally, for the sake of Linux, one hopes that Intel can gain more weight... specifically against Nvidia which is currently the only company to have exclusively closed source drivers
