The population of the US is 340 million
340,000,000*1,000,000=340,000,000,000,000 or 340 trillion.
I'm no expert, but I'm curious by what estimate is that Elon's net worth? And that's ignoring the part where a lot of that net worth isn't even made of money that can be spent easily.

I think it might still be dropping executables in .config, stuff like the JDK or even its own software versions

So what you're saying is, an extraction shooter where you play as a bodyguard for the VIP NPC, with some fun risk reward mechanics related to straying from the NPC for loot, and deciding which items to keep for yourself and which to give to the NPC? Sounds quite novel, could be fun

The drama where he ended up ripping into the maintainer who's trying to block rust code from being added? :P

Context doesn't matter because ultimately it's directed at somebody and telling them to kill themselves. I don't think he actually wanted that to happen, but he said it. It doesn't make him a villain, but it's something that shouldn't happen.

single handedly making linux a viable gaming platform for the casual user

Well, not really single-handedly. Most of the work was done by open source communities, Valve's part was mostly in integrating it and normalizing it, making it easy for users and giving developers an incentive to support it. They did their part and I love them for it, but I'm also grateful for all the volunteer contributions to projects like wine and dxvk!

On the bottom of the page you have a tree representation of replies, with clickable links to each message. The layout might not work well on mobile with limited screen width though, but you can just click through them.

including Alyx

Huh? Am I missing something? All of Valve's VR games show up as Windows only, running on proton. I think Deadlock is in the same boat, though maybe they'll add cross platform support before release.

I don't think arch does much to make commandline easier to use it understand - instead I'd say it aims to teach you how to use it, because it might be easier than you realize, but importantly it tries to tell you why. Instead of just giving you the command to run, the wiki explains various details of software, and the manual installation process tells you which components you need without forcing a specific choice. As a result, hopefully after using arch you'll know how your system works, how to tweak it, and how to fix issues - not necessarily by knowing how to fix each individual issue, but by understanding what parts of your system are responsible and where to look.

If anyone ever asks me

If people are actually asking, then sounds like yes, there is a need to have a speech prepared.

it also won't wake up from a month in sleep with an untouched battery the way a Switch does.

Any time I left my dock unplugged (after cleaning or whatever), next time I wanted to use the switch or joycons for something I found the battery drained :P

Not to say it isn't better, or even way better, but calling it untouched seems a bit too exaggerated.
