It’s an integrated publishing platform for the #1 game engine SDK in the industry, I wouldn’t be so dismissive. And everything else about implementation is commoditized: storage, client tech, payments.
Why not run a store?

Finally, a simple mind-map of common purchases to a particular region and style, based on my system:
1/ sparkling wine? Dry Spanish Cava or mid-priced prosecco
2/ light reds / "pizza wine"? Italian, especially southern Italy
3/ Steak wine? $25-30 on older vintage Argentinean / Chilean wine

Recently I started to formally define my advice for these $15-20 wine purchases for friends, something I've started to think of as "global budget wine macroeconomics". So this image is a screenshot with alt text of this, copied out of signal.

They may be tempted to buy something local but in their prices range, and I think this is generally a bad idea. 3 large corporations make most of the low cost wine in BC, and most of it is, to put it politely, overpriced for what it is.

I live in BC, and we have great wine in BC, especially from smaller producers who love the land and care about quality. This is also almost certainly expensive wine, and when I ask my friends what their budget is, they usually say "oh, you know, $15-20". Good BC wine is expensive!

Nor should you have to be as a browser user. It seems insane that chrome / edge works and brave doesn’t , I guess maintaining a chromium fork isn’t all free lunches and golf trips

Support for these kinds of features is often provided by a third party, for example Firefox relies on codecs from google called “widevine” to decode video streams like Netflix that have DRM added to it.
Looks like HEVC on Linux has a big exposure to gpu drivers?

I’ve used spec-kit from GitHub a bit and like the structured process of defining user stories but also the “stack” you want it to use. An mcp connection to your database can’t hurt either
