Bother 😒

It’ll be awesome to see the improvements Valve makes to ARM compatibility just like they did for Windows compatibility. Would love to see a handheld (by anyone) that utilises AMDs Sound Wave APU to create the king of low-spec, long battery life, indie-gaming.

I’m not fully up-to-date with bleeding edge display technologies but is there any reason that a passive DP to HDMI adapter couldn’t easily solve this issue? And would it cause Valve any strife to include one in the box?

Something that they have continued in earnest with the Switch 2.

Unfortunately, many large monitors are becoming “smart” now.

HDCP (the DRM HDMI uses) is interface-agnostic though? It works over DisplayPort, heck it even works over DVI. I think that makes your argument about DRM fall apart, though TV OEMs did indeed promote the adoption of HDMI.

Wait, are you arguing that the US is the lesser of two evils in this situation? Like, right now, this United States of America, the one that has a fascist regime in power?

one indirectly owned by the CCP such as Lenovo?

You could say this about literally every Chinese owned company. Eliminate all Chinese and all American companies and there’s not a lot of goods left you could purchase. Even less when it comes to goods made for other companies in China by Chinese firms.

I’d rather pay for search, than to be the product of a search engine. Self-hosting a decent index is much harder than it seems. Kagi aren’t ontologically evil in the same way as Google or Microsoft so I think it’s the best option.

CPUs don’t usually have their own integrated ROM, as far as I can tell the Core Ultra chips don’t. Are you talking about the integrated Neural Processing Unit that those chips have? That’s not hard-coded AI, it’s merely the cores with which to run it on. Which are also more efficient for other Machine Learning tasks that are actually beneficial. The issue there would still be what OS you choose to run on it.

But hey, at least kernel level anti cheating will finally arrive and CS2 will be playable again 🤣

¿Que? Are you suggesting that anti-cheat would be integrated into the microcode? That seems a little absurd. It also would no longer be kernel level but instead some form of hardware level.

“AI” already is built into chips? 🤔

Are you suggesting they’d have like, hard-coded AI or something?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I was frustrated at someone disagreeing with a person for not liking HP. I think at that point it no longer counts as “separating the art from the artist”.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don’t consider either of these argumentive.

Maybe it’s because you aren’t considerate.

people are permitted to have differing opinions and likes and dislikes.

Oh, so that’s why you chose to argue with someone about their dislike, right bestie?

Did we culturally forget that digital art and photoshopping exist for a minute?

all of my bags have multiple, my wheelchair has some on the handles, i’ve basically hit hairtie saturation honestly

I mean, my issue was you deciding to comment “harry potter is great” in this thread. There’s a difference between separating the art from the artist, and defending it to folks who don’t like it.

I mean, if it’s not malice then it’s ignorance in my opinion.
