Yea I noticed this as well so I just switched to blocking people instead of responding. Like I'm not here to educate. If someone refutes what I'm saying with substance that's different. But 90% of the responses I get are vapid disagreements with a dash of gish gallop.

Silly take: I don't think anyone deserves the nobel peace prize for anything related to the utter failure, disgrace, and human atrocity that is the western-funded genocide of innocent Palestinians.

I'm sorry but absolutely mother-fuck every country in the world that is complicit in this. Fuck Canada. Fuck the USA. FUCK ISRAEL! Fuck them all.

We don't deserve to award, celebrate, or nominate anything.

That's the truth. Reconcile it.

Exactly lol. All commonwealths have an upper and lower house just like the USA. I believe their senates are appointed as well, though I have not verified that.

(the senate, primarily)

Fair point! In Canada our senate is appointed by the Prime Minister and the position is lifetime. They rarely reject bills from the lower house.

  1. Because first past the post electoral systems always result in a 2 party system due to defensive voting.

  2. Because Americans didn't listen to George Washington, when during his farewell address he strongly cautioned against "alternate domination" of a 2 party system.

  3. Because Americans are woefully uneducated, dis-interested, and preoccupied.

My ps5 primarily plays the same games I did on ps4.

We're hitting a plateau where hardware isn't improving the ux.

I fully expect within 10 years individuals will be able to use AI to build decent to good quality games in relatively little time.

In a similar vein I expect people will be able to generate their own media; specifying everything from the plot, actors, music, ip, etc.

These big companies replacing human talent with AI are just making themselves obsolete.

It's been an even greater strength for big corporations though. There's a lot of immigration lawyers who own Tim Hortons. Same with education; their entire business model requires extortionate tuition/rent that only foreign students can afford.

We need to name and shame the people profiting off of this mismanagement. Pointing the finger at the government just causes them to deflect aimlessly.

Good. Lot of these companies contribute nothing to society other than GDP and consumerism.

You can replace workers with AI but not customers.

What's the difference between ARM and x86 other than proprietary?

How is steam an ARM store? (Genuine question not a disagreement)

What specific brands/companies/developers do you see becoming relevant in this context within the next year?

Will this translate to more budget friendly pc-gaming options?

I am a former pc-gamer. Built my last PC in 2009. Even then it was a budget build (AMD gfx).

Didn't Italy elect a far right neo-fascist government?

Hopefully gamers take notes.
