What other response is there? I responded based on my experience and you responded based on yours.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 update targeting key performance issues arrives next month, Arrowhead reckon it'll be a "noticeable improvement" 3 days ago:
Ah yes, because you don’t experience frequent glitches, and the world revolves around you and specifically what you experience, not me, right?
- Comment on Helldivers 2 update targeting key performance issues arrives next month, Arrowhead reckon it'll be a "noticeable improvement" 3 days ago:
Yes, in an alternate universe, where the performance is really bad. That is not this universe. I have no performance issues, personally. I wasn’t even aware there were any.

It’s broken?
- Comment on Does anyone else use their steam deck as a PC? How's it? 4 days ago:
I mean I need something with a trackpad and keyboard and a bigger screen to work efficiently so if I already have one of those, why would I use the SD for that?
If you don’t need a laptop? Sure, why not.

That’s like saying Android is Linux “under the hood”. No. They share almost nothing.

OnePlus and Vivo benefit from economies of scale. If you’re like me you often end up paying more for less. As stupid as it may sound.

Haha thank you for that translation!
- Comment on Costco Confirms It's Removed Xbox Consoles, Calling It A "Business Decision" 5 days ago:
I think it’s smart of them to keep all gaming products under the XBOX brand. I suspect the next XBOX (if there is one at all) will be just like the Steam Deck, booting into the XBOX PC app, with an optional Windows desktop.
I know it may be confusing but it’s a transition that’s long overdue. The console market as a whole is losing market share to PCs, so why not just make a PC that works like a console? And anyone can optionally buy their own hardware and use that as an XBOX.
- Comment on Costco Confirms It's Removed Xbox Consoles, Calling It A "Business Decision" 5 days ago:
Not sure what you mean. Sony already is. Costco can choose to absorb those costs just as easily as they expect MS and Sony to do.
- Comment on ROG Xbox Ally X and ROG Xbox Ally up for pre-order to take on the Steam Deck 5 days ago:
They don’t have to. You can play Steam on this device. It’s more of a way to keep gaming on Windows.

Samat said merging Google’s two OSes is mostly about AI.
Yeah I mean why do anything for any other reason?
- Comment on Neon, the No. 2 social app on the Apple App Store, pays users to record their phone calls and sells data to AI firms 6 days ago:
Their webpage should be a template for privacy disclosures. It’s just very upfront that you’re exchanging your data for free service

Maybe fix the cornucopia of glitches that have been present since day 1 instead?
- Comment on Steam Deck LCD 256GB on sale for 20% off ($400 -> $320) 1 week ago:
Those will make a huge difference for most people…
A little better screen and battery are nice
They are not a little better, they are both a lot better.
And 90Hz screen doesn’t matter that much when 40FPS limit is preferable most of the time to keep the frametimes stable.
That depends entirely on what games you’re running. Most of the games I play will easily run at locked 90FPS.
- Comment on Steam Deck LCD 256GB on sale for 20% off ($400 -> $320) 1 week ago:
I’m not going to list them all. But the most important items are significant battery life improvement through both a larger battery and more efficient processor, slight increase in performance due to faster RAM, 90Hz vs. 60, and significantly brighter screen for outdoor use.
- Comment on Steam Deck LCD 256GB on sale for 20% off ($400 -> $320) 1 week ago:
Completely disagree. The OLED is better is almost every way. Just go and look at the long laundry list of significant improvements they made with that model.
- Comment on Grab the Steam Deck LCD 256GB for cheap as Valve gave it a discount 1 week ago:
The OLED is WAY better in almost every way but the LCD also represents an exceptional value at a low price.

- Comment on Mark Zuckerberg freezes AI hiring amid bubble fears 5 weeks ago:
The guy hasn't had a good idea since he was 20 years old. Just keeps dumping billions of dollars into stupid fads. Just imagine all the good he could be doing with that money instead of flushing it down the toilet on terrible investments.
- Comment on Mark Zuckerberg freezes AI hiring amid bubble fears 5 weeks ago:
If their resumes weren't written by AI, that's a good indicator that it's all a scam.
