Kinda. The MS 365 subscription can be ordered from the app store. I don’t know about installing the Office applications afterwards, whether they then can be installed from the store.

Just putting their own games on the platform would be money down the drain

If they heavily rely on some frameworks very much tied to x86 Windows that required massive efforts to port, sure, but usually they don’t for the simple fact that video game consoles and smartphones exist. Microsoft very much supports gaming on ARM platforms, most notably Nintendo Switch. There is no reason why Doom I+II isn’t officially available for Windows ARM.

the app dev is given full access to the device

That’s not how sandboxing works.

So you were sticking with Pentium 4 when Athlon was crushing it?

AMD has been better than Intel more than once.

Why are you being hostile?

I’m not.

I just mostly focus on middle eastern politics.

Maybe broaden your horizon.

they aren’t as much of a danger as the sauds globally.

Yeah, the ones with nukes and fighting a war against Europe are not a danger.

OOTL, who is it for them, then?

The Kim dynasty. How can one be out of the loop about the basics of North Korea?

I’m locking this because too many people are shouting at each other here because of moderation practices.

This is not a complaints forum. See pinned post.

Oops, wrong tab.

Hätte mehr Sinn gemacht in dem Zeitraum zwischen Abwahl von Kaczinski in Polen und Wahl des aktuellen Putin Fans in Slowakei.

Can there please be a scenario where both shit companies sue each other so much that both go bankrupt?

The sauds are the most evil people alive. And i’m saying this as an arab.

Koreans might disagree with this statement.

Moving over to another proprietary location data hoarder is not really a good solution, though.

Location Data. We collect location data such as information about your device’s location, which can be either precise or imprecise. How much information we collect depends on the type and settings of the device you use to access the Services. For example, we may use GPS and other technologies to collect geolocation data that tells us your current location (based on your IP address). You can opt out of allowing us to collect this information either by refusing access to the information or by disabling your Location setting on your device. However, if you choose to opt out, you may not be able to use certain aspects of the Services.

“Arab country bad”

Yes but not because of ethnicity but because of human rights abuses.

Gaming on ARM is going to have a steep hill to climb until there’s a Proton-esque compatibility layer.

Or even better: The company developing Windows on ARM, selling ARM Surface devices, one of the biggest game publishers after the takeover of Activision could just release their own freaking games on their own platform. Not even the casual games are:

Lol, finally someone noticed that Windows on ARM exists. Microsoft certainly doesn’t even though some Surface tablets are using it. Not a single Microsoft game has been ported to Windows on ARM.

“Rule 9: Use the original source”

back when it was new

So a year later the time bomb still did not go off.

With all what they offer, 30% IMO is fair.

It’s not like the games are cheaper on other stores with lower cuts. Why would customers care if the lower cut just results in publishers pocketing higher profits.

This is by a Apple fanboy who is disgruntled that Valve broke up with Macs (Steam is still available but updates like the HL1 remaster aren’t any longer). Yeah, send thoughts an prayers for a cult who buy overpriced computers with weak iGPUs that only recently learned to do some raytracing but understand no Vulkan or somewhat modern OpenGL.

Apple has decided that gaming on Macs is about iPhone games on bigger screens and not about supporting cross-platform APIs and frameworks. Don’t blame any but Apple that your beloved platform is shit for gaming.
