Depending on the frequency of the offence

Well, obviously. Just look at the massive success by the other major game in the genre, Baldur’s Gate 3. Fucking packed to the rafters with live service elements so that must be it.

Only a sith deals in absolute paths.

I didn’t realise until I read that comment, your comment and the other comment about slash direction.

I see what you mean. I agree with that and in that sense DeepSeek is actually a really good thing because it gives some hope that you don’t need insane amounts of money for a powerful model. Let’s hope access and development doesn’t get too concentrated.

I disagree strongly, ChatGPT will gladly tell you all about the My Lai Massacre for example. Not to say it’s perfect or completely uncensored but to say it’s worse or the same…I just can’t get there.

Not that these concerns aren’t real necessarily but they certainly aren’t unique to DeepSeek. The real win is in propaganda, if you have a very capable and cheap model you can get everyone using you can push the party lines in sensitive issues much more effectively beyond your borders. I don’t think DeepSeek is a good tool for that yet because it just refuses to discuss those issues but I wouldn’t be surprised if that is the direction they take with future models.

Still, the fact that it’s heavily censored when it comes to sensitive CCP issues makes it a no from me.

We used teams instead of slack at a place I used to work because it’s free. You know, kind of like how my coffee is free when I go to the window to collect it.

This is a good point. I think it’s definitely worth people trying it out if they haven’t and they might be surprised by how good it is. That said, it does still depend on the person, if there’s a particular app or workflow that needs Windows and there’s simply no good alternative then you’re kinda stuck which sucks. For me I almost never boot into Windows these days but I still wouldn’t feel comfortable totally removing it yet. Maybe one day soon.

Haven’t read the article just yet but it’s so insane how far this has come and all the pieces that came together over so many years. Very excited about the future of SteamOS

I don’t think it’s used as a prefix but as a unit symbol. Point still stands though, unfortunately.

Boil 'em, mash 'em, use 'em to play doom

I felt that it didn’t quite express the sentiment adequately.

You’re making a great case for the Catholic Church burning uneducated people alive for voicing opinions.

tf?

But not this bit of the bible. There can’t be any translation errors, missing context or exaggeration on this bit specifically because we like this bit.

I don’t know what you mean by ‘bring your game to the deck’. How is it any different from listing it on Steam? Anyway to answer the question I think it’s because they actually have a decent platform that’s worth the cost for most developers. If you start conditionally lowering prices you also create an extra incentive for people to hold off putting their games on steam in the hope of getting a special deal.

Thanks for this, sounds like a perfect use case for SteamOS! I’d love to have a setup like this at some point, maybe the new rumoured valve hardware can help with that too.

Why would you run this vs a regular distro? Not a criticism, just a genuine question because I’m running Pop OS and wondering if I should think about switching when this releases. From my understanding it might not actually be super well suited to run as a regular desktop OS compared to a regular distro.

I dunno, job interviews I guess.

Aw man that really sucks. I moved to it back in the day after Postman got enshittified. The cycle continues I suppose
