For me it’s either this or Framework Desktop, I’ve got the money, just waiting for the email from Valve telling the final price.

Steam Machine is better for gaming, which is nice

But Framework can do Mac levels of AI work, which is also nice, it’s also not completely useless for games.

LTT said the same

Yep, and it seems the ram is upgradable

Allegedly is a magic word you use when you are you’re saying is not proven in court yet.

If you say that you can’t be sued if you get something wrong when reporting.

Like if you say “they fucked his ass with a knife” and it turns out to be a chisel -> they can sue you.

Thus: allegedly

Most likely not, my guess is that it’s going to be super fast unified memory like in the Framework Deaktop

In many sports it already is

I have a friend who made it big young (well earned IMO, they started working at 15) and they have about 2M in investments.

They make 4k/month after taxes just from the stock dividends every year.

That’s well enough for a comfortable life over here, as their house and cars are paid for - and the money keeps growing in investments.

The problem is that Russia will NOT stop. They might pause, but they can’t stop the expansion, they are culturally incapable of it.

This is their Gerasimov Doctrine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_generation_warfare?wprov=sfti1

And “the west” isn’t prepared for it, they’ve used it multiple times successfully.

The basic idea is that hybrid warfare cheaper than normal war. Russia has also made it 100% legal to use their military to “rescue” Russians from other countries. So in their eyes they’re doing the right thing.

Tactical and Strategic Truths.

So if it’s 100% fake news, BBC should say “KKKaroline is smart and beautiful and good at her job”

And because they always lie… 😉

It’s very different if your army did it in the 1800s when we didn’t know better vs in 2025

”Most” by definition would mean over 50% of all the militaries in the world have done brutal anal rapes with sharp objects in this millennium.

[X] Doubt

“If you’re not paying, you are the product”

Nobody offers services for free, the money has to come from somewhere

Depends on the ads though.

4k with shit streaming bitrate is barely better than high bitrate 1080p

But full bitrate 4k from a Blu-ray IS better.

And bypassed. For the price of a Galaxy Fold you can buy an iPhone AND an iPad or even MacBook.

Or just: “if you have nothing to hide, why do you close and lock the bathroom door?”

It’s clearer about different kinds of privacy. Sometimes you just don’t want people looking at you doing things even if you’re not doing anything illegal.

”But I can change their minds!”

…every well meaning left-leaning idiot on the internet.

No you can’t; they’re not arguing from a place of good will, they all argue for the sake of arguing.

And in the worst case you’re arguing with a LITERAL PIECE OF CODE.

Block and move on.

Chinese “fishing“ vessels have been armed for years and just literally decimate fish populations with their crude methods

Someone said that Russian history can be condensed into “…and then everything went to shit”
