The TPM included DRM as its objective 20 years ago. They backtracked at that moment because of serious backslash. Now, it's present and a dependency. Then, it will be needed for banking. Afterwards, for social media and social credit like in China.

If you think they are going to stop where we are..

Oh, they are working on that too. Win 11 depends on TPM modules, and it's not by mistake. Once they have the full software and hardware pipeline, they can control the media we see (for profit, but also for authoritarism because the jump is so small).

Tv oems are the ones that set up the hdmi club. They want the content encrypted with drm, from transit, to your pc, to your cable, to your screen. Look up the analog hole. This battle has been going on for 20 years. Share this with interested people.

Another option is to connect a Steam Controller (via its dongle, not via bluetooth). Pressing the controller steam button wakes it up always.

Just add the vpn config through the UI, no need for all of that.

They get paid to spread FUD, lots of actors would prefer the current approach with Windows to continue, pcgamer included (just disable ublock and watch the advertisements they run, you will get an idea on why they don't want a successful prebuilt).

Thank god one can see how it will work right now, just try to game in any desktop Linux, it works wonders.

OK, now think how nontechnical people will not be able to do it. They will be tied to Google/X-corp for all credentials, even government ones. Waiting to be banned if their social credit is too low.

Luanti eating on their turf.

And going through the world without care for it or your fellow humans with unethical decisions is also devoid of empathy

Why do you got a family of 4 if you knew how the world was? Why do you think that making bad decisions absolves you from making unethical decisions? At least acknowledge the lack of ethics.
