I think the biggest problem is that steam is like 80+% shovelware and it's no surprise that a lot of those are using a bunch of AI generated "artwork." IMO it's no worse than a shitty asset flip and as others have pointed out, there are a lot of really cool things you could do with generative AI in game dev that aren't just slapping shitty pictures all over your product, and this doesn't capture the nuance. I would also assume that this number is lower than reality since it relies on tagging, and nobody is accurately tagging shitty scam games with less than a hundred downloads.

The first few episodes suck really bad but it gets better

Wrong china

I mean it's simple math. Would you rather make more money or less money if you're the business owner? It's not good, but it's easily explainable.

Elon has hair plugs that admittedly look pretty good. I think Bezoa just lost his hair too quickly to fool anyone.

The founding fathers and those who wrote most of the amendments legitimately didn't think American voters would be as stupid as they are being now, unfortunately.

I mean from a business standpoint it makes sense. You make more money selling 5 hamburgers at $21 a piece than you do selling 10 at $10 a piece, as long as costs are similar. Having fewer users you're making more money from can make sense.

How much do those tapes cost if purchased in bulk? I am trying to figure out how much a petabyte storage system costs, and how much physical space this would take up, and how much electricity it would require to run. I had a lot of trouble finding this information on Google because I know so little about tape storage and don't know what all I would need. I am probably not going to actually do anything with this but I am curious because I had this idea for a product and can't get it out of my mind. The most important part (for the hardware portion) is having nearly a petabyte of physical, local storage. I am aware this would be quite expensive and relatively large, but the product would be intended for governments and companies not individuals.
