    Fuck nvidia with 100 foot pole.

    Never buy anything from them.

    Never buy any subscriptions from anyone.

    Good for you Nvidia. I just switched from Nvidia to AMD during that minor price dip. Been wanting to for years but couldn’t afford it.

    … Not going back : D

    That is one of the really nice things about the Steam Deck. It gives companies something to target. And once you have a Steam Deck app, well, you already have a Linux app, might as well release it as such.

    The Steam Machine will do the same thing.

      I’m a bit doubtful for the success of the Steam Machine due to the skyrocketing component prices. I’m afraid the price point will be too high for large scale adoption.

        That’s an issue the entire industry will need to reckon with soon. I think gaming tech is going to sort of plateau and enter an optimization era. Was probably overdue for a correction anyway, but it’ll be painful for a while. It’s possible the Steam Machine will be delayed who knows. Or it’ll just be a hobbyist item until prices hit a tipping point and equalize.

    Don’t fall for their trap. They don’t want you to control or own your own devices. Fuck them.
