but what happens when Trump decides in 6 months to stop shipping engines and engine parts and software updates and encryption keys

Soon we'll return to what was when Microsoft had a separate Windows NT 4 High Encryption release

Web engine development is more costly than even OS development

Unfortunately, many applications that used to be desktop applications in the past are now programs that run in the web browser. It doesn't matter anymore if they are a lot less effective than being native.

we’re talking costs that often run into the hundreds of millions per year – it’s virtually impossible to fund unless you’re a giant

That is the problem - the web needs to be a lot simpler, browser development should cost fractions of that. It got unnecessarily, absurdly complex.

WoW was just such a massive phenomenon (and still is, tbh), basically everyone at least knew about it, and for so many people it basically became more of a second life than second life (old people joke), massively changing the life of these people (me being a part of it). It was basically the place where social outcasts could be social, which was huge. For me, and many others, it was all the friends they had.

Its legacy now lives on in FFXIV.

...Anything interesting in the recent releases? I stopped following a while ago, I'm not sure there has been any actually exciting features after like what, the redesign of 12

Huh, the 7000G series already required uefi, surprised it took them this long to require that for their dedicated gpus

Nope, they're just available to pre-order with an estimate of shipping from Q3 this year. They're not shipping now.
I just checked, the gmktec link above says that their product is supposed to ship in Q1-Q2 this year, earlier than framework's.
