I’m kinda surprised that him proposing that the US should throw Ukraine to the wolves (Russia) didn’t completely tank his career. In hindsight, for the past 20 years he’s kinda just turned into a tankie (or at least tankie-adjacent) due the the US’s misdeeds in Vietnam, Cambodia, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

While the US has done wrong, that doesn’t automatically make its adversaries right.

This.

Cramming AI into people’s lives by default has always been a shitty decision

Or Christmas, where we cut down trees to set up inside and decorate to celebrate said man-god’s birth, except the date is nowhere near his actual birthday

Americans will use any unit besides the metric system /s

In fact, Valve reports that the Steam Machine is “six times as powerful” as the Steam Deck, and while this is mostly marketing speak (“power” is a vague and complex concept in gaming tech, and isn’t a linear spectrum), it’s not unfounded.

The Steam machine APU can perform 6x more operations per second than the Steam Deck APU.

This isn’t vague, nor complex. The reasons why the Steam Machine APU is more capable is complex, but the results are not.

Quit making mountains out of molehills

Note that I said “the vast majority”, not “all”

It’s the crux of the law suit

The plaintiffs making the claim doesn’t make it fact like you’re suggesting. The entire lawsuit is hinging on a single email from years ago. That’s not steady ground.

This is doubly true when you actually look at prices on other storefronts. How was EGS able to have lower prices or even give games away for free when said games were/are available on Steam at the same time?

You FIEND!

I… I don’t know how I feel about that

No, Veritasium did the experiment and proved Veritasium right

And it’ll total to about a buck for each person that claims, because the lawyers are going to take almost all the money and you’re suckling their bollocks for no reason

This completely biased news rag brought to you entirely by the plaintiff’s law firm

Are they doing a second season of this?

I thought season 1 was alright, though the messaging is a bit fucked up

It’s alleged that they require games sold on other platforms which have a lower cut are not allowed to set their price lower than on steam

1. That’s based on a single email from 10 years ago that was most likely just worded wrong

2. It’s patently false. EGS offers games for free or simply lower prices all the time, even when said games are on both platforms

Ew, resetera

Choosing not to release on Steam isn’t easy because it’s not a balanced market, at all.

It’s not Steam’s fault that the majority of the competition sucks ass.

but they take a ludicrous portion of game revenue.

It’s a standard cut for online storefronts, even today. And they even reduce their once game sales hit certain mile stones. It gets down to around 20%. The only reason anyone talks about it is because Tim Swiney harps on it nonstop because he wants to be the one with the monopoly

I did too but when I had a quick search around that’s what I found.

Personally, I have always been in fabour of replacing human drivers with AI

AI is overkill for this, like the vast majority of its applications

and then every physics and electrics youtuber had a reply video explaining how Veritasium was wrong with his theory.

Veritasium’s first video was making the claim that a thr setup with wires stretching in either direction for a mile would have the lightbulb turn on faster than electrons or even light could travel through the wires. This is because the electric field extends out of the wire in all directions, not through the wire, and inducts through the other end of the wire without travelling all of the distance.

Then a bunch of other Youtubers made response videos saying he was wrong.

Then Veritasium made a second video where they actually did the experiment and proved themselves right.

You don’t know what you’re talking about. Shut up.
