Bad luck they've bought their way into being so successful at gaming?
They just pulled back from gaming hardware, because it's unprofitable, and went all in on software, where the profit is.
They're releasing previously Xbox exclusive games to PS5.
It looks like their future console strategy is to produce gaming PC's in the shape of a console that run any Windows game available through a 'store' like Steam or Epic Games, or Microsoft Store
. The complete results would include a confidence factor.
Then people would stop using them, when they never get anything over 50%.

Using DXVK to translate DirectX to Vulkan multi-threads the CPU side of the graphics calls, lowering overhead for old games when you have cores to spare.
For newer games that are already multi-threaded in this area, it doesn't provide any benefit.
They only just completed the acquisition of Activision Blizzard in October 2023
They bought ZeniMax in 2021
They are now the largest gaming company in the world
Microsoft is buying up gaming studios, so the future of compatibility isn't clear.
I wouldn't be surprised if a future version of Battle.net requires Windows 11
games running on SteamOS must go through a Proton translation layer for every native Windows instruction in a game's code
There is no instruction translation. It's x86-64 instructions being executed on an x86-64 processor.
Proton re-implements the Windows API's
Take a small Lithium battery, like what you might find in a watch, and throw it into a bowl of water. It explodes and bursts into flames.
Lithium metal reacts with water.
Lithium salts, as used in lithium batteries, does not.
The only reaction a lithium battery will have when immersed in water, is electrical, like any other battery type.
The inherent danger of a lithium battery is thermal runaway. The reaction that causes the fire is self sustaining and doesn't require an external source of oxygen.
In fact, the best way to put out an EV battery fire is to use water to keep it as cool as possible until it burns itself out.
Bad rubbish like the Porsche Taycan's that sunk the Felicity Ace in 2022.
Wait... since that has Volkswagen EV technology, does that mean all VW EV's are bad rubbish too?
One of the first EV carrying boats to catch fire was caused by Porsche Taycan's

Really expensive EV's also catch fire, not just cheap ones.
Apparently you don't need the mitigations in the compute library if you have them in the kernel
When did anyone justify anything in this thread?
You seem to be reading things that aren't being written.
You're also claiming that hijacking a plane and flying it into an office building is the same as firing missiles at military targets and nuclear weapons research facilities.
Have you heard of the term "strawman argument"?
Where is the study on crash data?
Surely some insurance companies have looked into this? Do cars with touch screens have higher premiums?
I was talking about Iran fighting Israel through Hamas
The good engineers left SpaceX because they don't like the boss anymore.
