kinda funny that Microsoft has tried and failed multiple times to make Windows on ARM work

and then valve is probably going to succeed, to Microsoft's detriment

It turns out the best API for gaming on Linux and gaming on ARM was Win32 and x86_64. Who knew?

Well, compiling ARM game binaries is actually super duper easy and just totally fine. The issue Windows actually has with ARM is GPU drivers for the ARM SoCs. Qualcomm graphics drivers are just super slow and unreliable and bad. ARM CPU w AMD GPU is easy mode.

Shows how a stable API will beat the hell out of bleeding-edge improvements every time.
