Because it's Brave and people like to jump on bandwagons. This is like the 6th time I've seen this article posted in lemmybin also.

And since we have the reddit-minded folk here, no, I do not support Brave and never will and I would much rather they disappear from the internet, but using ragebait to complain about the browser installing the necessary files to have one of their advertised services working, like pretty much every other software does, is not the way to move forward.

It is made using Nvidia's RTX Studio, that is why it's called RTX.
It's also important to note that RTX is long past being just Nvidia's implementation of real time ray tracing, it is much bigger now as a suite of enhancements, technologies and tools.

I don't think the hair is much of an issue as his mutton chops

CS GO (now CS 2) has constantly been on the top 5 most played steam games globally for a decade now, so yeah, I think people are still playing this game.

Pretty much everything twitter/X related was and is going to be nothing but petty drama on some site with overreacting toxic people.

So what you're telling us is that both sides have equal blame in this terrorist attack that took the lives of so many civilians?

I can agree with that, it's reasonable

That Blizzard is selling their games on Steam at all speaks volumes about how poorly they are doing.

No, it doesn't at all. All of this was just preparation for the Microsoft acquisition, by having Actiblizzard games in a third party platform as a way to show that they're "not creating a monopoly"

It helps if you want to go on your own banning spree for people not having the same opinion as you!

You can absolutely play CSGO and it only takes a few clicks from the CS2 entry in steam. You still have community servers, which were always a big thing in CS.

You cannot play Overwatch 1 or old Warcraft 3 at all, doesn't matter how many clicks you try.

How is this a trend? It happened with two games and you can still play one of them (CSGO).

EDIT: it happened with 4-ish games, actually, and the Blizzard games are the only ones we cannot play anymore.

RCS is only interoperable with apps and carriers that adopt the Jibe protocol, so not much has changed.

The only way something replaces WhatsApp is if WhatsApp stops existing.

Besides, RCS is not in any shape or form ready to the general public, considering all the blatant inconsistencies and instabilities, let alone replace one of the most used, tried and tested messaging platforms out there.
