But am I a millon dollar employee?

I rarely downvote, only for people being assholes, misleading content, AI slop and so.

Are electrics not manly enough now?

This has Metal Gear vibes.

A 5900x. At The time it was top of the line. I didn’t experience any crashes but the stutter was crazy and the FPS were, as I remember, always around or below 60 at 3860x1600. Problem is the maxed out graphics were meh at best, so that level of performance wasn’t justified at all in my opinion.

I had (And still have) a 5900x, which, at the time, was high end.

I remember watching the first trailer they released more than a decade ago and thinking wow, those are some nice graphics and I am a sucker for space stuff. But at the time, my 1080ti didn’t look powerful enough for such a game.

Then some 4 years ago or so, with a brand new 3080Ti there was a free weekend to try the game and, after cranking every setting to max, what I remember is, wow these graphics are outdated AF and it is a stutter fest. Uninstalled after a couple hours never to think about it again.

Is there a real market for €2.5k phones?

Man it doesn’t make me miss my Switch at all.

Any AI stuff is a hard no for me, in this community or anywhere else. It contributes nothing on the short term and it can destroy the community in the long term. It should be banned.

I’ve been wondering this too since the announcement of the frame. The ARM compatibility layer was the most exciting bit of the presentation for me. As much as I love my Deck I most certainly won’t be getting a Deck 2 in the future because what I need more in order to truly enjoy handheld gaming, for these aging eyes of mine, is a larger screen, something like 11+ inches. And it’s clear to me that those sizes can’t be achieved in the form factor of a Deck, you need something like a thick tablet with detachable controllers to do so.

I think the huge success of the Deck is because the form factor and the ability to play AAA PC games in said form factor, even if is on low settings or 30FPS. From the research I’ve done while buying a tablet for both content consumption and gaming is clear to me that ARM is still not up to that task yet but it is close enough. Next year’s Snapdragon elite 2 is tipped to be 30-404% faster and with a good compatibility layer and better drivers it could be a very viable option for handheld gaming.

I think that is not a matter of choice between x86 or ARM. Valve partnership with AMD goes deep and I think they will continue using both platforms for the foreseeable future and even possible but unlikely that at some point we got a base Deck with ARM and a pro model with x86.

That broth look thick and delicious!

Probably the end of many, if not all, third party vendors.

And let modders add the weed afterwards. Brilliant!

Was about to grab some popcorn…

AI bubble is also a bomb and yet here we are.

I think is greater, because the money at stake now is, thank to billionaires, far larger than it was in the 2000’s.

Some windows are gonna open to Mr. Potanin.

Why is people downvoting an actual unpopular opinion? I meant, you might have your opinion on the subject but the post itself is on point.
