Xbox May Walk Away From Steam, As It Reportedly Prepares PC Strategy Shift Amid 2026 Reset

So where does Xbox make money? It’s not the hardware. It’s the games. Seems like they should stop developing a “store” and a “platform” and just adopt Steam. I don’t think it runs any version of windows underneath. Refocus efforts in improving Proton, develop great games, offer them on Steam. My Steamdeck was the best mobile experience I ever had for some really great games that also worked on windows. If I could install SteamOS on my Series X, that would be a killer Steam Machine.

I am someone who works out daily and sweats a lot. Just doing laundry doesn't seem to adequately clean the underarms of my shirts. What are some ways to clean these areas of my clothing better?

Saw a solution on the web somewhere that worked for me for colors (not whites, you will see why).

If you have stains already, I use a 50/50 of water and Tide Free and Clear in a spray bottle and I spray drench the stained area. Throw that in the washer and let it wait for wash day. Hours or days to let the Borax in it do its thing. Works great for oil stains too.

For straight up stank, like the mildew in the shoulder seams that will come out when you sweat, I use oxi in the tub with detergent, then cleaning strength vinegar (30%) in the fabric softener compartment (but not with whites and chlorine bleach, DON’T GENERATE CHLORINE GAS). Just like 2 or 3 tablespoons. You will smell it when you move the load to the dryer, but it mostly fades while it tumbles. The stank fades away every wash and is usually gone after 3. And it helps sanitize your washer between bleaches.
