Master Chief Collection was more of a Remaster than complete Remake, isn’t it? Meaning its still the same game, they just touched up things (Remaster). For the upcoming Remakes, the games are programmed and rebuild from scratch on a new engine (Remake).
There are also Helix and Microsoft Edit.
I found the correct answer.
Team Neovim.
I looked into ed, then decided its not for me.
You don’t get right, by just declaring other opinions as wrong. That’s not how discussions work. So if you don’t have anything valuable to add, then just don’t respond.
You think everything on planet is based on Ai and if it goes down, everything goes down? No. If the Ai bullshit bursts, then companies will have billions to spend on other stuff. Where one part of the economy falls apart, another part will rise. Money doesn’t just disappear (usually). It will be a better world for end consumers and for most companies, including Ai first companies.
The only money they make is out of speculation, not because it makes them more money in production. People will get hired again, off course not everyone at once, but there will be a need.
We knew this would happen. I’m surprised its still over 4%. Also finally the mysterious 64-bit and 0 64-bit resolved into proper distributions. It’s not Flatpak after all, as I was speculating before. What happened there?
Man the Steam statistics is like having an argument with your wife, winning some arguments, then losing a big chunk for no reason, then one slap after another. I don’t know what is left and right anymore (no this is not a political statement). In plain English: I can’t take the Steam statistics (specifically about Linux market share) seriously.
You forget the used market. If the bubble pops, then many users and companies will start selling RAM and graphics cards. This means the prices will go down in used market, and because less people buy new, the prices for new hardware have to go down too. So building new machines or upgrading will be cheaper than it is right now.
Which parts would get more expensive and how do you come to that conclusion that people need more money for bread that way? I don’t get the logic, what is the argumentation here?
The only reason I purchased 32gb over 16gb a few years ago was, because I wanted to have an upgrade over my old system. I was never filling up the 16gb and didn’t see a real need to have 32gb. But it was cheap. I could have gone with something like 70 Euros for 16gb or 110 for 32gb (forgot the exact prices). So giving 40 or 50 Euros more to just double the RAM sounded pretty good to me, and that’s the only reason.
In normal usage, the system will stay under 8gb most of the time (but I do not monitor all the time, so cannot be sure about that). It’s mostly games or the browser that needs so much RAM. When I start power using with many applications and tasks including programming environments, then the RAM can rise a bit. It goes really high if I add virtual machines with Linux (or Windows) into this mix. So 16gb would be nice to have in those situations. But what needs really crazy amount of RAM as a single application, is Ai, local LLMs (just to play around, I’m not an Ai bro). Even 32gb can be filled up easily this way.
This is a meme reply isn’t it? I would have liked to see screenshots what exactly needed so much RAM usage. Sounds like some sort of memory leak or other issues. I can assure you, that is not normal. In normal usage, I don’t know how to even fill 32gb, even if two games would run simultaneously.
The only thing that needs so much RAM to fill my 32gb is local LLMs. (No, I’m not an Ai bro, just play around with it mostly.) On my old machine I never filled 16gb, and on this “new” machine I do not fill 32gb either with regular usage. 16gb is still pretty fine, if you do not use your computer like an animal and think about the applications you re using.
Why would it get worse if the Ai bubble crashes? It would probably get better.
I don’t think the majority of his money comes from those exceptions. Without the lootboxes and the item market, Valve (and Gaben) would probably make most of the amount of money they do right now. Just because I don’t like that part does not defeat my previous argument. My point is, the examples about item market and lootboxes in some of their games are not core to their strategy and their business does not stand on those legs.
Or is your argumentation that Gaben is a bad person, just because of these two points and everyone who hates him hate him for that? Are these the central points you are calling him an evil person? I don’t think so. That’s not the core issue. Your core issue is, that he is rich. So it does not matter in what ways he earns his money. Therefore reasoning alone how he earned his money is meaningless to discuss at this point. You just try to find a justification and point to it, after i pointed it out. Therefore I don’t know how rational it is to hate a person just for being rich (which is the main issue here, because you say nobody can get rich ethically).
Lol, I think we had this discussion before. Nice to meet you again. :p
I mean I understand this position of yours. And yes, there can’t be rich people without poor people, so in that sense I agree being rich is evil by definition. But there is a difference in how to get rich, either by exploiting the weak or those who need it, or by creating good products people WANT to spend money on willingly, without getting exploited. They can get rich this way, which is not really unethical to me. Its a bit of paradox with this (my) argumentation.
I don’t think that Gabe is an evil person, or soulless like other CEOs. Especially because Gabe / Valve makes money by creating good products on a free and open market. Other CEOs make money by selling their soul and users to investors (remind you, Valve and Gabe doesn’t have investors).
However, there is something I hate Valve (and Gabe) for actually, and that is having lootboxes AND item market in Steam and their games available. If anything, this is what would I call the most evil thing and exploit Valve (and therefore Gabe) does.
Would be awesome if it comes with a base building mechanic, where you “hire” people (or enslave them?) to work for you. Either in your base or around the world, like a strategy game. I doubt this mechanic is in this game, but now I want to play such a Vampire Empire game.
I’d say this is debatable. Listing all choices and their conclusion (I did not play that game, so don’t know how it is presented) can take away the mystery and exploration of those choices. Some people might not like this and none way is wrong or right. I compare this to the “numbers popping up” in Action RPG games, when you hit enemies. Some like to see it, others don’t want to.
Other games do the same, just without the freedom to do whatever you want. I mean I prefer a game that let’s me “kill an NPC permanently”, even if there are no further effects to the world and story. Would be nice to have those effects, but we all understand that it is probably an unrealistic request. So I prefer this over games, that does not let me kill NPCs permanently.
I don’t know if I am allowed to say that, because I use EndeavourOS which is almost exactly Arch. Maybe I should start doing that with an asterisk attached to it, as I use Arch, BTW*.
And the battle will continue. I’m ready to fight, to explain and define what those words mean. Even if it cost my life! (ok little dramatic today, but you get the idea)
