Neither is going to be as seamless as the mac, but I have used steamlink + linux + wayland as a combo for a handful of hours and found no major issues outside of needing to launch steam with -pipewire to make sure it's using the right backend.

I've yet to try a sunshine / moonlight stack or Microsoft's native RDP viewer, but those are on my list to play with

the default appears to be on, but the iPad UI can still be a little buggy. You know what does work well though? Steamlink. The only iPad Game I need : )

On the surface it seems like a good use of taxpayer dollars.  But it’s government and money is fungible.  There are unintended consequences as well, even if the program is managed well.  We’d be better off making the business environment better….including regulatory, fiscal and monetary—-but again…this is government we’re talking about.  

Companies like Apple, Nvidia and AMD decided to single source key components from a country that isn't even recognized by the US. Either chip production is moved stateside or US will have to defend Taiwan to get the chips needed. The bill should however have been footed by the companies that put US at risk through these imports.

Yup. Without going too hard in the paint and derailing things, I think there's a fairly solid national security argument to be made here with respect towards Taiwan, China and US relations. I am happy to see some forward-looking tax dollars being spent, even if historically the costs on this stuff do tend to balloon.

Burden of proof is one of the basic concepts in critical thought. Go take a logic class and it will be one of the first concepts covered. 

In critical thought/logic the burden of proof is the responsibility of the person making the claim.  In this case that is you. That you have declined to offer any proof and are falling back on “go look at the information yourself” just underscores how weak your argument is. 

An offhand comment in a casual conversation doesn't require evidence.  Get over yourself.  You're welcome to disbelieve someone, but no need to be a dick, ands it's probably ill-advised when the person you're being a dick to has moderation powers.

Yeah...

I'm just going to point out that we try and cultivate a generally positive atmosphere here. Part of that is ensuring that people act and speak in a respectful manner. If you take issue with something then by all means please give us feedback, that's a big part of why we still have forums. We are happy to run corrections and address concerns based off that, especially if we got something wrong. If, however, you choose to engage in a manner which is openly antagonistic or disrespectful you are not only undermining your own goal by making people discount and ignore you, if persistent enough you are also putting your account at risk. We are under no obligation to entertain that kind of behavior.

Food for thought.

So close to launch I was expecting to see much more coverage in the press than I’ve seen.

We have had a fair bit of coverage on it. The infulencers Apple has anointed are waiting for NDAs to be lifted (that will come as one big media push), and the rest of us are waiting for ours to show up in the mail before we can really speak with authority on the subject. We do have an content roadmap planned around the launch 

In short, you can expect the media machine to start working overtime in the coming week. We're just 6 days out from having them in our homes and in our hands
