I’m a nerd who enjoys playing Video Games, watching アニメ (Anime) and tinkering with things that probably shouldn’t be tinkered with 🤔
Have you seen 16bit Sensation: Another Layer? It’s not the most Anime Otaku thing but if you’re into Tech Otaku stuff then what about PC-98?
Also just out of curiosity, where in the world has four digit license plates? Is it for a car or motorcycle or some other kind of vehicle?
Where does it say new product? I read their announcement and get the impression that it’s an update to an existing product:
“We’ve got one more big update for you, and you can tune into our YouTube channel August 26th at 8am PT to see what it is!”
Actually I disagree. Using a Steam Deck docked in desktop mode I was able to run out of memory by playing Minecraft while having one browser tab open (YouTube) and Discord.
I know it doesn’t sound like a lot, but you have to keep in mind that the SteamDeck’s 16GB of LPDDR5 is both VRAM and system memory and the Steam Deck dynamically allocates it based on need.
And that’s before we even consider doing something wacky like using the Steam Deck for Dev work or 3D modeling or other more “normal computer” uses.
Would you look at that - the pipeline is green now! Quick everybody, merge your stuff while it’s stable (/s) (sadly a true story tho)
Bold of you to assume that the line can’t go up further… just think of all those poor shareholders missing out on an even higher value! 😩
Valve has been moving slow and steady, but it seems like a master plan for Steam Machines could finally be coming into focus.
Honestly if Valve launched a new Steam Machine today, I’d buy it in an instant.
So the author of the blog post that the article is based off of actually interacted with some comments over on Hacker News and there were some pretty interesting revelations - such as his resume having Vibecoding as the first skill listed on it and living/looking for jobs on the East Coast with a website sounding like he’s on the West Coast among other things.
I guess the media saw his blog post as a quick means of driving clicks through a clickbait headline. That’s not to say that the market isn’t hot trash at the moment, but I personally doubt Engineers are being replaced by AI.
It appears as though it is…
But saying it pings their servers isn’t quite a fair statement as it’s not some background service that opens a network connection, it sounds to me at least like it’s data that is sent to the Fedora repos once a week when you update your system?
Would be glad to be corrected on this though as I am a long time Fedora user now and I’m not overly fond of my data being collected by big corpo; it’s why I left Windows in the first place 🙄
