How free is the market?
- Comment on be a friend to the animals 4 days ago:
Uhhh no that’s not true. Unless you’re one to say everything a computer does is AI, like the NPCs in video games are “AI”
I refer specifically to generative AI that’s taken prominence this decade.

But also because (at least as far as I can tell), he doesn’t use AI.

Yeah I mean push through as in they don’t keep trying
- Comment on Valve announces three new products: the Steam Frame, Steam Machine and Steam Controller 1 week ago:
I think it’s just an accessibility thing. VR is expensive, and it takes people pushing through some disorientation/nausea to really enjoy it. Many will simply feel sick the first few times they try it, decide it’s not for them and leave it.
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 1 week ago:
They’ve released a version of every one of these before. Steam Controller, Valve Index VR set, a line of Steam Machines some time ago…
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 1 week ago:
Given their history with input devices and the fact that it runs an ARM version of SteamOS I would bet that controller support will be good

- Comment on A hypothesis 2 weeks ago:
I’d take macOS over Windows anyday if those were my only choices. It’s UNIX so a ton of Linux knowledge is transferrable.
- Comment on Why have so many services started using single-factor passwordless authentication in the last little while? 2 weeks ago:
The most common way is basically calling up your phone company and pretending to be you saying you needed to switch phones
But also beyond just that the networks that route calls and texts globally are not very secure… and it’s not as hard as it should be to get access to it.

- Comment on 'Valve does not get anywhere near enough criticism': DayZ creator Dean Hall says the 'gambling mechanics' of Valve's monetization strategy 'have absolutely no place' in videogames 3 weeks ago:
If you take a look at all the loot box mechanics out there honestly theirs is the least bad. STILL BAD and shouldn’t be a thing, but they’re way less in-your-face and also you can sell the boxes that you get for free just by playing and use that to buy games.
- Comment on Research shows 4K or 8K screens offer no distinguishable benefit over similarly sized 2K screen in average living room 3 weeks ago:
Depends on distance and screen size. I think 4k is worth it. 8K not particularly

Microsoft is the only one I can think of that doesn’t work on Linux though? What’s the tonne of stores you miss out on?

They raised the GamePass price didn’t they? It’s been lackluster lately

They’re free to take, but yeah agreed
- Comment on Texas National Guard arriving in Chicago 1 month ago:
If you mean they’re a danger to everyone in the vicinity, yes absolutely.
But they’d still be a shit soldier. Lot more to combat readiness than ability to pull a trigger. (Though if the USA wants to fill its armed forces with obese people I won’t complain lmao)
- Comment on effective advertising to boost your business 1 month ago:
The font in “We stay hard at work” combined with the generic style of the graphics. I clocked it as well before opening the comments
