the big thing in terms of support is developer testability. just like with the deck, it’s basically a given that it will see significantly better support from third parties than any normal pc. it’s the same reason that “you can build a pc with the same performance as an xbox for cheaper” was always irrelevant: the marketing push behind the platform is what drives devs there.

also, considering valve isn’t selling this at a loss, the prebuilt only managing to undercut it by €40 is quite telling.

and they will support it for the lifetime of the machine, i assume?

someone else pointed out that even though the claims about their effects lack merit, *we still build them away from people". which is what i think we should do to dc’s as well, for the same reasons.

that’s not being a blank slate though, that’s being so devoid of empathy that you can’t even imagine what it’s like being yourself a few years ago.

redesign your logo.

not with that attitude

centaur = brain of a man, speed of a horse.
reverse centaur = brain of a horse, speed of a man.

substitute horse with ai.

yeah it’s called “eternal life in a place without sin”

depends on where the mute button on the model you have.

also that’s an… interesting take for a furry.

yeah it’s not very good. but it’s one study of many and it was more to show that people are actually having issues with them.
