You can't really get cheaper for the same performance since with new parts, since you're already looking at the lowest xx50 tier of gaming GPUs where you're forced to accept unfortunately low price-to-performance ratios. That is to say, they don't make em any cheaper, lol.

If you fix the price to stay the same, a 5600x and a 9060xt 16gb will cost you around the base model's MSRP and will give you ~60-120% more performance depending on game and performance. I imagine the 120% is when the 8gb VRAM on the steam machine runs out at 4k, lol.

A mid-range PC (i5 4590 + 750ti) from 2014 would be a perfectly fine computer to use even today, and probably wouldn't draw all that much more power than a modern PC either. Things last longer now that hardware advancements are slowing down. You'd have to use Windows 10 LTSC though because driver support for Linux has been discontinued, lol.

So a lot of Americans did vote for this horrific administration, but most people don’t even know what they are voting for

And the second time around?

You can go up to a 5060Ti 8gb for $370 and get +45% more GPU performance compared to a 5050 (which was already better than a steam machine) and still stay under the budget for a steam machine. The 9060 XT 8gb is also about the same price on the other side of the aisle.

equivalent performance to a base ps5, lol

The numbers are there if you care to look lol. Not my fault you don't want to. selling rx 6600 performance for a thousand bucks in 2026 lol

And AGAIN, all hardware is simply more expensive.

yea and this one is twice as expensive as those lol

"equivalent", base ps5 has equivalent performance while being half the price lol.

it defeats the purpose of a confirm dialogue if it doesn't correctly tell you what you're confirming...

If I want to permanently delete a specific file from the recycle bin?

You can also take a look at twitter where only a negligible amount of people migrated to free alternatives, most of the people who wanted to migrate did so to another mainstream platform owned by a for-profit company, and most people didn't actually care to migrate no matter what the platform owners did.

With his ID?

"I don't want a steam account" should be perfectly justifiable reason in itself. There is no technical reason why they can't split up steam input from the steam client for base functionality.

This article was based off what the CEO said at the Second Annual AI Summit, following the news of their new head of GPU hire who says he "will lead GPU engineering with a focus on AI at Intel". The AI pivot is the actual news.

Job Requirements:

Active use of AI tools in daily development workflows, and enthusiasm for helping the team increase adoption

Nice to have:

Passion for games and game preservation

AI Mandatory, game preservation optional. Glad they got their priorities straight 😅

Nah, that one's on Elon just being a stubborn bitch and thinking he knows better than everybody else (as usual).

Not misinformed brother. The quote is likely talking about the $20b GameStop is going to borrow for the purchase itself. It's a pretty common trick in leveraged buyouts to saddle the company you bought with the debt that you racked up to buy it in the first place.

Makris explains that not only does each Yarbo robot have the same hardcoded root password, but owners can’t defend themselves just by manually setting a better password. Every time Yarbo updates a robot’s firmware, it changes the robot’s root password right back to its default password.

lol

They didn't say "100% of humans can solve this benchmark", they said "humans can solve 100% of this benchmark".

I guess it's some sort of sick performance art by showing that even though the >90% voted no AI, DDG will still have AI turned on by default in its main site and corral the >90% into the hidden away subdomain.
