How many embedded DRM-controlled news article videos are you watching on your living room tv though?
Obviously it’s only a fraction of the overall DRMed content out there but it exists, most notably for live sports that TV stations stream for free on their website but require paid subscriptions when using streaming apps.


Then I won’t watch those, simple as.
Doesn’t change facts for millions of others.


🏴☠️ Well 🏴☠️ I 🏴☠️ don’t 🏴☠️ care 🏴☠️
Random clips on the web are DRMed these days, like news articles with an embedded video. Many CMSes just DRM all clips. Totally BS but I’ve seen the video frame staying black on a bunch of sites now.


“Kann ich frische Tassen zum Mitnehmen haben?”
Offizielles OK, klebt nicht und sind auch keine Kitschen dran.


Oh, the ones who made the last steam machine
Valve made no Steam Machine before the upcoming one. Are you confused and meant the 3rd party devices that were branded Steam Machines? Those were not by Valve and not by the Half-Life development team in particular.
and controller and supported them for 10 minutes
Steam Controller 1 is still fully supported and got Bluetooth firmware several years after release: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/353370/view/3931035846865617357


My wife is aiming to get a Steam Machine when they become available. This steam deck is taking the place of it until then for me.
There is a decent chance the USB-connected charger/receiver for the Steam Controller 2 could wake a docked Steam Deck LCD, btw.


Which valve? The one that made half life? Lol
No, the SteamOS and hardware teams are actually different groups of people to the game developers.


People who connect TVs to the Internet only invite malware. They usually don’t receive big fixes after a few years and tend to spy on all watched content.


Pretty sure DRMed content refuses to play on those.


it’s for running x86 linux applications on android.
No, it’s not.


And the US are a base of Iran ally Russia.
Luckily I could disable auto updates in time.


even ahead of Max Verstappen when driving identical car parts
Too bad you destroyed your car then.


https://waydro.id/ is the basis for Lepton.
it now requires a subscription.
I think that’s wrong. I only see a one-time payment on https://www.magicearth.com/pricing . 1 year fee of 6 Euro, then 15:

That said, they might shoot themselves in the foot with this. For those who don’t know: The company’s business model is or used to be to sell their services to car infotainment and similar industries. The free version for phones was their way to gather a big user base that contributes traffic and incident data.
Maybe their industry customer base collapsed. I don’t know but with this move there is serious risk they’re chasing away users and therefore the quality of the data decreases.


If meeting sales projections fails, heads roll. Literally.


They left Red Bull because they didn’t want to fund a works engine program. Then their actions forced Red Bull to set up RBPT and because Honda wasn’t interested in shared development, they went away and took Stoll’s money instead.
