Same should be said for Nintendo or Sony, who assert the same control. Most of the money made is on games.
Not saying you’re wrong or anything, if anything I agree, and think it should apply to all my hardware I buy.
- m4rtink 4y agoIndeed - a Nintendo Switch would be a perfect remote controller for robots if only Nintendo let you actually write code for the device you own!
- _v7gu 4y agoWell, Nvidia just went ahead and gave everyone permission to do just that :^)
- musicale 4y agoIn principle I like the idea of non-locked down game systems, regardless of whether they're made by Apple or Nintendo. I find it appealing that the Steam Deck isn't locked down and can run non-Steam games as well as Steam games. However, the killer app for jailbreaking locked down game systems does seem to be running unlicensed copies of commercial games.

- weberer 4y agoWell they did ship out official Linux discs for the PS2 and PS3.
- pclmulqdq 4y agoLinux for the PS4 and PS5 is just a normal x64 Linux binary. The 2 and 3 had very exotic architectures. For a while, you could get the most FLOPS/$ by networking PS3s together instead of buying commercial computing hardware.
