Like shit. If you have the money for an RTX, go get one, even if that means gaming on Windows.

Gonna say what everyone haven’t: the display is great to read but that’s it. The hardware is mediocre at best, and SolOS is unimpressive. At $730 it’s DOA since the iPad Air M2 exists and you can watch streaming on that.

And where is the evidence? Asking for a friend.

This is a great video to introduce someone to the whole “What is Linux” thing without going into deep detail, plus showing some tools you’ll use every day.

Yes and no. They had to put the version identifier somewhere to avoid sorting problems or parsing problems, so I think that putting somewhat in the middle is a good tradeoff.

Common rule: AMD for Linux, NVIDIA for anything else.

I don’t think it’s a scam or a fraud (legally), but it’s really an undercooked assistant that is $170 too much.

I think that CZ has something, but eventually we will have to wait and let it cook, to check how the company (and maybe the device) are entangled with cryptos.

I suspect they will port core software running on the cloud first, running C# and chomping tops of RAM and CPU because reasons. Rust helps with both, but it takes time to port. Frontend apps will be the last thing will bring to Rust, maybe using WASM, and to avoid tools, use the same WASM packaged with Chromium for their standalone “apps” and walá: one codebase, all platforms.

Same here I would use SurrealDB if I had only a front end app, as you can only use websockets and HTTP to connect to the database, and even push authentication to the database itself. There are many features for real-time apps there.

Otherwise, PostgreSQL is more stable.

To slam its puss-ahem I mean, to thoroughly test their release.

Of course, otherwise would mean investing in huge data centers for running LLM models, or worse, buying hardware from NVIDIA.

Optimization is the key. Privacy is just an added bonus.

This could backfire into something Google don’t want: everyone using adblockers.

Imagine everyone installing adblockers just to skip YouTube’s obnoxious ad rolls, just to also block most Internet ads.

Suddenly, having an adblocker becomes mainstream like wearing socks.

That argument that any SoC upgrade wouldn’t be noticeable right now is partially true. A better SoC can be fabricated, but that would offset any cost Valve would willing to accept given the current Steam Deck pricing.

It’s better to wait for what AMD creates. Surely they’re preparing new RDNA and ZEN architectures, plus TSMC new nodes. Those guys have an special sub-node to target low power devices, being the latest the one Apple eats every iPhone launch.

If they pushed a new Steam Deck, it would be marginally better and most folks wouldn’t be so compelled to upgrade. Also, you fragment your development team, now you have to maintain two devices.

Yeah, it’s better to wait a good timing when AMD and TSMC aligns, then you push forward and you offset the prior 4 year old model.

That dangerous part was up to the FTC to prove and they couldn’t.

You can check the brief story of the Concorde.

Every time a competitor comes for a piece of the Steam Deck pie, you start to see the cracks.

At this point you’re bound to make Steam OS compatible with your Deck alternative, or just not try at all to sell at a premium.

It’s mainly due to PA Semi acquisition. These guys were the ones responsible of making excellent PowerPC processors, which were similar to what ARM has now.

These guys are probably happier now that they have more resources, target devices and tightly coupled software.

It will go nuclear once we get into 1nm territory and we see the first attempts to use light rather than electricity.
