Keep (image) cache forever sounds OK if you can clear it manually in some way. The worse offender will be the one w/o cache (or broken implemention), so you keep using the mobile data when you flip through the menu for the same dishes images 😱
There were some games that can be run on Steam Deck, but will not run on other Linux systems, I think they might be able to do similar stuff for the Machine.
IMO I think it is just limited the game's visibility, but ultimately it's up to the game devs. (Like tech support or "fairness" reasons)
I'm surprised noone builds laptops from desktop components. I don't care if it's huge. Just give me that
Clevo did help other companies to OEM/ODM laptops with desktop CPU and sometimes with modular GPU module. But it's super rare in the current laptop market.
The power consumption and the heat might also limited the performance they can give.
More like customers = AI companies. OEM/ODM or such can be customers, but only when AI customers demand fulfill first.
(As they need to raise price and reduce spec to build their products)
I encountered a crazier one recently: the app will just refuse to start if you block the ad servers they're using, showing "connection unstable".
Went to connection history and saw lots of requests to ad servers, unblocked them and I finally started the app without error, but yeah I did see ads too.
eSIM is really hard to change device in Taiwan due to government (NCC Department) "instructions" (that carrier sometimes misinterpreted it):
Can not transfer by yourself, you need to go to carrier to transfer.
300 NTD (~10 USD) per move (can be waived under some cases)
Might deny if you move too often recently.
And now (actually start few days ago), you need to show proof of purchase (or gift) of the target device. Carrier can deny if you fail to do so, and they'll say they're following government instructions. NCC said it should not be applied to eSIM as it's one-time use only, but such rule already executed for few days and caused troubles for some people.
So physical SIM is more flexible here. (For now)
EDIT: NCC Department said the instructions are just suggestions, carrier should do KYC properly, but how all major ones do the same annoying stuff is beyond me...
Latency issue, in some use cases it's not acceptable to have 0.1~0.3 sec lag, like racing games or rhythm games.
(Yeah, I know there are some wireless protocols to make latency shorter, but it might cost a lot to buy a supported headphone, and it's still useless if the phone doesn't have proper protocol supports.)
For push-notification login, there is really no other choice beside the proprietary one.
But they do also provide universal TOTP for 2FA login, it does work with other apps too. (unless your org had set special 2FA rules)
The alternative option is not so obvious on initial onboarding IIRC, though.
You can NOT use effective adblocker extensions with manifest v3, as it removed functions that they need (and impose some other limits to make them unable to update fast)
I think the prompts that ask to remove telemetry (or to be exact, stuff that try to modify system files) will just give you error.
Similar to some current AI models that would just not run when it found some "prohibited" words in prompt.

I guess the AI's price memory was frozen at pre RAM crisis (or earlier), so it thinks the current (inflated) price is abnormal.
(BTW, I don't think police will take the case about the pricing, they would just tell you to find another store(s) with more reasonable price. :) )
Yeah, one of the game I thought is Infinity Nikki, another one is Delta Force.
I updated my comment to include a link to the list about which games have restricted Linux system(s) support.

It were possible but it's more on the developer side at that moment.
Ad blocker apps are not allowed on Google Play Store, due to violation to the store guidelines.

While it sounds like a good idea, they can just open a game (or few) and do nothing to accumulate those hours. :/

I deleted the app afterwards.

EDIT 2: NCC Department clarified the new KYC instructions. (Chinese) 媒體揭露KYC指引相關報導恐有誤解，NCC今日邀集三大電信業者溝通說明，持續滾動因應實務情形

1hr? Maybe just wear an action camera, if you can sit well in front of the screen during whole meeting. (j/k)
EDIT: For smartphone, get a selfie stand if you have place to set it up, do not try to hold the phone with your hand for 1 hour.
So it would block screen/video capture, but will it block sound-only capture, too?
Non-JP version games "might" work, but will force to shown in Japanese (if available)
Japan-only version: Only support Japanese language, JP Nintendo account, and probably Japan payment methods for shopping.
Multilanguage support version: Doesn't have those limits, but it's more expensive.
