Half of them aren't in China though. It's dropshippers, so you still get your cheap death traps, but you get them in a few days, Amazon get their enormous cut, and they get to take no responsibility when it burns your house down.

No vibration is a strange choice given that Nintendo and Sony went out of their way to make that much better in recent years.

Lack of trackpad is more understandable. Sony have had that for two generations now, and I've never really seen it used as anything other than a big Select button. I bounced off the Steam Controller simply because games designed for controllers feel much better with thumbsticks. If I want to play a mouse controlled game like Civ, I will use a mouse. Even from my sofa.

Or the funders get bored of waiting after ten years of "no Mars yet" and cancel the project, leaving you with a half finished rocket.

Unironically yes.

I guess whether it's worth it depends on whether you hate writing code or reading code the most.

Half Life 2 and it's episodes are always on a massive sale in a Valve bundle.

There's a lot of stuff there you won't play, but it's a must have for the Half Life and Portal series.

Also Wolfenstein: The New Order and Doom 2016 are great.

Yeah, it's all on Twitter and Facebook.

Why hang out in the run down Nazi bar when the big chain bars are all accepting Nazis now?

Jellyfin popcorn is much cheaper. I just grab it from the farmer's field while he's not looking.
