I don't understand how the economics will work if it really allows you to install Steam. Consoles are subsidized by game licensing. If devs can release on Steam and players can play Steam PC games on this box... where and how is MS making money on those games?

I donβt see how MS overcomes that either if the XboxPC can install Steam. I think in the end this PC dance becomes a weird one off thing that both companies back away from.

#indieauthor February update. Tested some ads. Averaging about an ebook sale a day which does not cover the cost of ads. But I do think when I have more of a back catalog the ads will pay for themselves.

When you have an audience or a business you have to ensure that you always provide a lot more value to people than you extract from them. If you don't then, long term, it all breaks down.
Young people I talk to today...they feel like the whole entire world has broken this contract with them.
If Dems win the house maybe you could impeach him. That might be faster than hoping the Supreme Court does somethingβ¦ not that I understand what you think theyβre going to do considering they ruled that Trump was above the law.

π¨ An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.
Other documents that mention Trump have been taken down (and some restored).

Even if Democrats are all in, I'm not sure the usual sorts of congressional inquiries are going to be remotely enough to bring all of these crimes to light and all these criminals to justice.
