I’m not sure if i’m missing a joke here, so:
In case you’re making a joke: The people who don’t type JSON are using controllers.
In case you’re asking a serious question: the people who don’t type JSON are the people in OP’s image. They are technically using types, but that type is literally always string
. They don’t use integers, they don’t use booleans. This is functional but may not be the best choice, depending on what kinds of data their system is supposed to handle.
Many API developers may choose not to use them, but they are absolutely there.
You specify the type by including or excluding quotation marks, and then for the types without quotation marks, you either include or exclude a decimal point to specify float or integer, and for boolean you use characters (specifically true
or false
). Arrays are wrapped in []
and objects are wrapped in {}
.
JSON data as a whole is passed as one giant string because the REST protocol demands it. But once it’s been pulled in and properly interpreted, there are absolutely types in the data.
This is in large part due to the EU forcing Valve to allow refunds. I think it was a good change but it is the source of the boring sales.
Before the refunds, Valve used to encourage developers to do flash sales (hour or day long surprise sales) of upwards of 90% off, and similar events. You’d also frequently see that much during the major seasonal sales like the summer sales. There was no risk really for either party because you spent very little on a game and if you didn’t like it then oh well, you only spent a few dollars/pounds/euros/chuck-e-cheese tokens on a game so who cares. Conversely, Valve and the game developer had guaranteed income the moment you bought it.
I do miss the pre-refund days as a “patient gamer” because of the insane sales, but refunds have protected us against a lot of things like the cyberpunk 2077 launch, the helldivers controversy, and several other major problems.
The onus is on the accuser to provide evidence, not the audience he or she is professing accusations to.
In other words: put up, or shut up.
If it sells well they may do a deluxe/pro version for $70 or $80 with a bunch of extra bells and whistles
There are a lot of games where it is a crucial or at least very useful extra layer of feedback. Some games you cant tell whats happening without it. In many cases it adds to immersiveness for a lot of people. Both Nintendo and Sony have put a great deal of effort into their current gen haptics.
It’s a big deal.
This won’t be possible with Wayland. It’ll be possible on Xorg desktops but Wayland has explicit separation of permissions per-window and must be granted as such by the user (or on steam’s gamemode, probably automatically will target the game window’s surface/gamescope instance)
Change that.
You can get a Steam Deck refurbished for very very little money.
Desktop first, steam deck very close second.
Laptops can stay very far away from my household
The way the foss sites work is basically like torrents though so it has the whole “the more people that watch a video, the faster it becomes for everyone” effect. The primary upside is that each site serves as a guaranteed seeder.
Hasnt android (or at least custom roms) had this since forever?
Python has built-in json parsing, as does (and i know this isnt gonna be popular) PowerShell.
Same. Every gaming laptop i have ever had the displeasure of using has been absolute garbage.
The steam deck on the other hand? Pure kino.
Are they easy to wear?
Regardless of if their gpus are weaker, they are absolutely causing the focus on gaming laptops to wane, and wane hard. Why build a high end $2000 laptop that sells 10,000 units when you could make a $600-1000 handheld that sells 250,000 to 3,000,000 units?

You missed the joke
Earth falling out of orbit and careening towards the sun.
Looking up at the sky, I see a void open in the center, going from blue to black, then eventually to blinding orange into white before everyone collectively melts and then incinerates in the extreme heat.
Worst off, its a slow descent, so we have time to contemplate it as it happens.
Unfortunately they have a significantly lower focus on alcohol and food - a stark lack of mead and mutton in particular.
