I can’t imagine spending thousands of dollars on a setup and then running windows on it like it’s in a some office cubicle somewhere.

Hot take.

Lua is an industry standard for a reason. The syntax isn’t great. But the reference implementation of Lua is under 500kb, very easy to embed and very fast.

I dont think it’s pronounced the way this comic implies it is.

I think it’s fr·ee·ay

I’m having this effect same experience

Agreed. Don’t play with guns unless you are going to take it seriously.

I use LLMs every day for work. Dealing with 100% fact based information that I verify directly. I would say they are helpfully accurate / correct maybe 60% of the time at best.

It really is a full desktop os. Not a bad one either.

The main limitations is hardware / driver support and proprietary software support.

Neither of those things are really a problem when you use it in an embedded system like a console though.

I bet they used freeBSD over Linux for licensing reasons.

they don’t want to deal with Linux or the Bash shell

I’m a professional software developer that runs Linux on all on my devices. So I could “deal with the bash shell” if I needed to for sure. But im not interested in doing anything but running games I bought on steam.

Not once have I even opened desktop mode on my steam deck for anything other than checking it out.

It’s completely possible to stay 100% in the main SteamOS environment which is basically “Big picture mode”.

Normal users literally would have no idea they are using Linux. It operates exactly how you would expect a handheld game console to operate.

It’s hard to tell if you actually are making a coherent counter argument here since your response is 90% ad homenem.

Concepts are high level ideas. Mechanics are lower level implementations of those ideas.

But I think the original poster really meant “vision” or “motif” more than they meant “concept”.

A game with lots of deep mechanics but lacking overall vision is really just seen as a fancy tech demo by most people.

Wat

Best part is Amazon can’t even manage to shop books without destroying them at this point.

You’re describing mechanics not a concept.

you’re advocating for that person to just die instead because they feel like it in that moment.

I’m advocating for human autonomy and the right to chose to end your own suffering. Anything else you are putting on this is based on your own ideas and bias on the subject.

You seem to be advocating for prolonging other people’s suffering despite their own express desire to end it.

You do not understand the experience other people are having here and claiming you know better than other people is selfish at best.

No one asked to be here.

You personally have no idea the depth of suffering another person might be experiencing and no one owes you anything at all.

Your ignorant judgment is unneeded, and unhelpful. It’s not coming from a place of empathy or understanding.

You have absolutely no right to physically stop a stranger from suicide just because you think your world views trump theirs.

For that matter you have no right to physically force anyone to do anything that isn’t harming a 3rd party.

You see yourself as a hero but your attitude is truly selfish and disgusting.

Idk what this is but it’s not very good imo

Gross

This is a bit of an exaggeration. There’s evidence that prehistoric societies mended broken bones and sometimes even skull fractures.

Average life expectancy stats are pretty skewed by infant mortality rates.

As one example, Otzi the “ice man” had several broken bones early in his life and survived a pretty long time after that.

I think “conspiracy realist” is a good term.

You are totally correct the point is to flood people with so much batshit crazy misinformation that it’s impossible to sort out the “conspiracy theories” that are actually for sure happening right in front of our eyes.
