    I have to wonder how long they can run on community goodwill. With handhelds like the Steam Deck and similar, surely it’s gotta be only a matter of time until they have to change or die.

        I’d argue that they’re more likely to morph into a patent troll if they ever do get anywhere close to their death throes.

        We might even be witnessing the Genesis of that transformation now.

        They have such a deep patent portfolio that they could really fuck with the whole industry.
