In my phone contacts none of my friends have cancer, does that mean that cancer is not true then?Here is a graph from the Bureau of Labour statistics, as proof of unemployment being down under Biden. In fact under Biden unemployment has been below 4% for the longest stretch in over 50. years.

A lot of people blamed Biden but don't realise that it takes a few years for external changes to hit the economy, for example the inflation we have now is largely due to COVID and is only hitting us now, so effectively what we are feeling now is due to Trump. When Trump was in office he received the tailwind of a good economy from Obama and still messed that up.
Trillions in debt added to the American debt deficit due to the stimulus checks, stock market was horrifically red, unemployment up, employment down...but for some reason people remember it as them being better off for some reason.So that to me would be silly.

Maga Republicans have indoctrinated its voters into not believing in statistical facts presented by Media that isn't Fox or some other fake "news" pedaling content farm. How do you convince someone of your positive improvements if they refuse to acknowledge the data you present to them.
Funny enough Inflation is down(Biden administration doing this) but the actual high prices we are seeing is all set by greedy supermarkets companies "greedflation" if you will.Also employment is up, the stock market is doing well, house building up, unemployment down but besides all of this it doesn't matter if the voters don't believe it...

Yes and No.
No in that games are already made that the steamdeck cannot handle due to the advancement of games out right now and Yes if that doesn't matter to you as it plays well what it can. Modding for it is amazing too.
I would especially recommend it to people looking for an entry point into PC gaming or people with a good PX already who just want a handheld option too! -

I am sorry to hear that and I guess I was thinking about it being a great place to live from a western "perspective", which was due to my ignorance. Hopefully at some point soon the Thai people get a leader who improves life for all living in Thailand...
