linus should explore the development of directx's evolution and its various capabilities beyond just graphics and audio engines. Directx offers remarkable functions that are often misapplied, even within Microsoft and Xbox ecosystems. Many issues with these two groups stem from improper usage—such as neglecting essential components like dx or missing command-line installations. For instance, with NVIDIA audio, people overlook high and low API for directX sound, which was removed in DirectSound. Several other services have also been abandoned since DirectX 10 was released, remaining only as backward compatibility solutions. Although games from studios like XNA Game Studios handle this well, apps still face challenges. Windows Phone also struggled due to similar mistakes, like incorrectly applying WM_INPUT on XInput devices.
