@Williukea @vexmlk @PayPal Presumably because some artists sell NSFW art primarily or exclusively.

@hannnahkbm @vexmlk @PayPal What do fantasies and mythology have to do with this topic? 🤔

[Gregory Opera @greg_opera]

@brown_john18944 @Techjunkie_Aman @Steam Just gonna ignore the fact that most "mainstream" games in the @Steam catalog, including most "AAA" games, work under #SteamOS, huh?

@CloudyBRM @Techjunkie_Aman Moore's Law refers to computing power, now pricing, mate.

[Gregory Opera @greg_opera]

@CultOfAshleyPro @Techjunkie_Aman Nah. Only the settings screen is. The rest is no different to Windows.

@Zenul_Abidin @Saddog369 @brockpierson Well considering how rare of an event this is... Particularly for single-use devices running Linux, like a toaster.

[Gregory Opera @greg_opera]

@RabidMonkies @brockpierson @Ubuntu isn't the only distro (operating system) out there, mate... Besides, I've comfortably run #Ubuntu on less than that over the years.

@JayceNeal219138 @Techjunkie_Aman @Steam They may sell the product, but that doesn't mean their description is correct... Imagine if an #ATM manufacturer or an gaming arcade machine called their product a "#PC"; it wouldn't change a thing and the product would *still* be called an ATM or a gaming arcade machine.

@riteshpatel1884 @justbyte_ @Windows.

@XabdOrg @Steam @OnDeck The Legend of #Zelda, Dear or Alive Xtreme / volleyball / beach or #Pokémon franchises.

A product type is defined by its *primary* purpose... Otherwise, #ATMs, #POS terminals, ticket machines, all other #consoles and countless other devices / machines should be considered "#PCs", too.

And the *primary* purpose of the @Steam Machine is #gaming

#SteamDeck #SteamOS

@Techjunkie_Aman @CultOfAshleyPro I just changed to @KdeNeon, after using other distros for a bazillion years, and you're 100% right - the settings are *completely* overwhelming!

I'm literally only halfway through them, and I've needed to take a break for a few days because there's so many! 😂

[Gregory Opera @greg_opera]

@CultOfAshleyPro @Techjunkie_Aman What's wrong with #KDE Plasma?

@YDontTheyTellU @Techjunkie_Aman This.

I'm still waiting on @valvesoftware to release the @Steam Controller to more than a select few... The initial launch was a joke, and neither my wife nor I have been able to purchased one, despite "reserving" a controller each the second we were able to do so.

@brown_john18944 @Techjunkie_Aman With no games?

Mate, there's over 100,000 games in the @Steam catalog and over 90% of them work with #SteamOS!
