Is Valve's update cycle really worse than what the typical Android device gets?

The future of gaming is this. Move the Memory Pak®️ around into whatever system you're currently using.

The circular scrolling thing has never worked right for me. I set it to "vertical swipe".

What I would really like is for the left pad to do panning, like a two-finger trackpad scroll. No notches, just a smooth scroll please.

Yeaah, who the heck wants to download a 20GB+ demo that gives you a 15 minute slice of a game? I'll give a bunch of 1GB demos a shot first.

Here's how I did it: take a can of electronic contact cleaner, dribble it in the switch. You have to open up the system to really get it in there (remove your SD card first). Just a drop or two, work it in, repeat.

Biden isn't president anymore. The only function of government bodies such as the SEC is to punish anyone that this president doesn't like. OpenAI is very much in favour, and even if they weren't they could afford to bribe their way out.

As I've heard it, the AI industry is borrowing against their mountain of computers to get their next round of money. The problem is, computers depreciate fast - their hardware is on like a two year replacement cycle. The solution - pinch the supply to make the value of your depreciating assets go up. Now you have higher valued collateral to borrow against, so you can buy more of the supply, pinching more, which makes your collateral more valuable again, ad infinitum.

Congratulations! You have now won at Capitalism. Now stare at the Game Over screen forever.

It's because "The Ides of March: Et Tu Edition" is on its way

Did you say you wanted "more agentic AI experiences"? Right away, my good sir!

My biggest regret is not getting a whole crate of 2TB intel SSDs when they were going for $70. "Surely, this is a sign that prices are just getting better and better!"

Melania? (makes ankles-behind-the-ears gesture) HER?

But you didn't directly plug it in, there was always some sort of adapter involved (thanks for the generous ports, Valve). There must have been something wrong with the adapters. Sometimes, you just have to flip USB-C over for it to work (thanks, Intel).
