Gin? Genetics? Giant?
Do you pronounce Origin like Oregon?
I personally find arguing pronunciation as entirely pointless when there are many words in English that get pronounced different based on a multitude of factors.
People also like to argue it's an acronym, but do you pronounce NASA the same as you pronounce the first letter of each word of National Aeronautics and Space Administration?
Honestly? Just say it how it makes sense to you.
I mean
The Bush family rigged W's election against AI Gore. Why did that get swept under the rug?
I wouldn't say the only option
You can run Winlator and play indie games and older games (runs Fallout 3 and Oblivion)
Always thought it was super weird that John McCain was too left for some people
I have multiple one way syncs set up, I've never had any issues.

My argument against this is that at least I own a license to the game rather than just a subscription. Steam still has and updates games that were made unpurchasable a decade ago. Hell, people still play rocket league on steam.
This is a separate argument altogether. Theres "own physically" and theres "own a license" to. If you own it physically and your physical media corrupts (which happens often to digital discs) did you own it any more than if you had it on steam? It's also illegal to make a copy of a console disc, btw.
What the article is talking about is not even obtaining a license for at all and games just being attached to a subscription

We need police reform.
I was just talking about that movie a few days ago
It started off alright, I was thinking "damn is this really a Michael Bay movie?". It seemed like it wanted to ponder on the human condition and maybe do a bit of 1984-esque discussion on human rights, etc. Philosophical stuff that Bay isn't known for
Then a big green Xbox advertisement, suddenly there are explosions and the people who have never even seen a car or motorcycle are doing high speed chases on the highway, so much action, etc.
It was such a jarring turn of events that it actually felt like the two parts of the films were made by two different people
