100000% it would be crazy. If I remember correctly, the xbox one and ps4 weren’t really sold as loss leaders, that or they were priced closer to their manufacturing cost.
I have been thinking, I don’t think it really matters to them what the consumer does with their machine. I mean, at the end of the day, you’re still gonna be buying steam games simply for the service.
tbh I didn’t know there was a term for this lol. No matter what price they decide on, I do hope to pick one up.
I reeeeaaaally hope they do something like how microsoft and playstation purposefully sell their consoles at a loss ( I think it was 360 and ps3 ). One can dream.
thats fair but knowing some of my friends, it feels more like they want to chase after prestige lol
The amount of people that I personally know, who i have convinced to try out linux, AND END UP CHOOSING ARCH AS THEIR FIRST DISTRO, IS TOO DAMN HIGH >:^[
Idk where these people get the idea from, I never mentioned arch to them but some how it just happens.
Help.
okay i hate apple but im actually upset about issey miyaki(also rip). like what the fuck happened?!
where’s the interesting designs and the shit ton of zippers :/
ngl i only made this comment hoping someone would provide a solution lmao
majority of the features does work but when it comes to plotting in octave, nothing shows up. last time i checked it was something to do with qt(something).
for rstudio i dont remember what problems i had but booting into x11 solved these issues.
rstudio and octave is holding me back T_T
If I remember correctly (from my mom who grew up in Taiwan) asus, acer, and msi(?) used to be one giant company that was split into three. so it doesnt really surprise me that their design teams share some cringe similarities ( okay i mean like ik this split was a long time ago but like they all do the same thing).
i always thought rog (republic of gamers) was just a play on roc (republic of china aka taiwan). Im just waiting for gigabyte to come out with peoples republic of gamers
this is good wallpaper material
I have heard that people used to be super PISSED that steam is required for valve games. I guess it makes sense now considering hdd sizes back then.
I recommend Nobara OS nvidia version. This comes with drivers during initial installation so no need to follow wiki guides and spend additional time carefully installing stuff. The biggest “plus” is that (assuming you are using discord), they have a pretty large discord server where you can ask questions and stuff.
Even though its just a spin on fedora, I think this community and distro is good for newcomers who also game.
looks like its another night of pbj sandwich. again.
thank you i will do what you tell me, thank you i will do what you tell me, thank you i will do what you tell me, thank you i will do what you tell me, UHHHHHHHH
and his song is a fucking BANGER. Glory glory hallelujah!!!
I dont play a lot of chess and I’m bad at it but I recommend playing chess puzzles or timed chess. If it helps, just think of it as a mini skermish on one area of the “map”.
While there is competitive chess, I think the advantage it has over most things is that many people know how to play and that most of the time its a casual background game. Like you aren’t trying to win, you are trying to not lose.
When someone is playing at a house party, it’s so much fun to make wierd faces after they played a move or so.
Yeah… everytime I see it in movies I kinda cringe. However it still is an effective narrative tool to say that the person is a stategist or is in a higher tax bracket ( or honestly any quality that the common viewer doesn’t have). Even so, I wish writers would stop doing this.
I think for ML and stuff, I am currently waiting for the release of the 24gb intel battlemage cards.
Our college has a lot of alienware aurora r7’s and i think its a pretty okay sized case. Like the ones we have are loaded with 4090’s, so I assume you should be fine. If you are upgrading anything, you should make sure your powersupply covers the requirements.
I’ve never tinkered with alienware but two of my friends had issues trying to upgrade cpus because the bolts and screws were installed super tight. Maybe you wont have this issue. Best of luck hope this helps :]
I think I have a similar experience, just a few years off.I didn’t grow up with nes or snes but my parents did. Took me a while to find out that my parents used to be gamers because during childhood, gaming was basically banned. I didn’t learn until later on in life that the reason why it was banned was because it was tooooo addicting (for them lol) like my mom sold her entire snes collection and my dad just hid his sega genesis and nomad. Gaming only picked up for me when I got my first computer. After a decade of multiplayer gaming, I’m finally starting to play games that I had missed out during my childhood and let me tell you, holy shit these games are fun. Would life be any different if I had access to these consoles growing up? Probably, but either way I am sure I would still have fun.
Whenever both of my parents retire, Im gonna setup my parents consoles ( will prob emulate snes cuz its too expensive to buy) and be like “You cant die yet mom/dad, you’re gonna have to beat all these games in your library lol”.
tbh that was a cool airforce moment. Idk about current day, I doubt anyone would buy a shit ton of steam machines just to make a hpc cluster. BUT it would be cool af :]
