An optional function of HDMI that allows the device and tv to send/receive commands to each other. All modern TVs have it, and just about no PC hardware does.

If valve themselves aren't going to do it, they should at least give dbrand or someone a licence to sell a companion cube skin. It's too obvious not to.

Form factor and CEC are the big ones. There's no PC you can build that will come anywhere close to the performance:size ratio of the steam machine. And getting CEC to work is _possible_, but not the easiest.

Inflation's a *removed*.

That will be tough. The problem is the chip fabs. The entire auto industry couldn't get them to budge when they needed chips that the fabs didn't want to make, so I don't think Valve has any real chance.

With TVs starting to get USB-C inputs, which are displayport under the hood, hopefully HDMI fucks off.

If you want to play the blame game, the blame falls on everyone. The right is pushing to make things actively worse, the center is willing to just put up with whatever the current status quo is, and the left would rather spend all their time attacking one another for being the wrong brand of left, rather than actually go out and do something productive.

Doesn't even need tariffs. Could just take away their tax exemption.

Uh huh. All evils in the middle east are Israel's fault. And if not them, than the Americans. Sunni vs Shiite violence has killed more people in the area than the Americans and Israelis combined, and started over a 1000 years ago, but somehow that's the Americans and Israelis fault too.

But hey, don't let reality's shades of grey ruin your pretty black and white imaginary picture.

So, ignoring the fact that "Muslim" describes one's faith, not race, do you honestly believe that a Muslim majority Palestine is going to drastically more tolerant than all the other Muslim majority countries in the area? What signs are there that would point to that being the case?

I'm not. I never was. I have no idea why you keep bringing it up.

Do you not read the context of comments you replied to? The guy I was responding to specifically said he hopes that what's happening to Palestinians happens to the Israelis.

And you keep ignoring the point that *it doesn't fucking matter*. You can't solve genocide with more genocide.

Decolonization *can* be done peacefully.

50 years ago you *might* have had a chance to make it happen, since most Israeli people would have been born elsewhere. Now you have multiple generations of people born and raised in Israel. They have nowhere else to go.

And you'll have to forgive me for being skeptical about a Muslim majority Palestine being tolerant of religious differences if they regained control of the whole area.

What fantasy land do you live in where the involuntary dismantling of a country is ever a peaceful process?

I feel like I'm talking to a bot. All of your responses are at best tangentially related to what I say.

You're getting down voted because you've missed the point. It doesn't matter why the current situation is happening, calling for genocide as a response to genocide makes you just as guilty as the people you hate.

The truth is, you've completely ignored my point. Genocide as a response to genocide solves nothing.

Or here's a novel thought: how about we start hoping for bad shit to *not* happen? The cycle of revenge and "I deserve this land because X" is how we ended up in this situation in the first place.

There's always the chance that if you hit a red state hard enough, it might turn purple. That will very much get their attention.
