  This is more about “4k gaming at 60fps” being vague than anything else.

  Playing Bejeweled? Enjoy 4k @60fps then.

  Playing Starfield? Well…

  What did they do before AI existed? Boy, it must have been really hard back then to make games.

  Of course, they were all better somehow… Curious.

  I bought my first one for whatever full price was.

  When they went on deep discount ($5), I was lucky enough to snag 2 more as replacements. But to date, the first one has held up.

  You’re about to have a rough few months, methinks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Questions about the steam frame⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah for sure. Technically a PC does count as an obstacle, but in practice it’s not a large enough one to matter. If it were a room or two over, then maybe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Questions about the steam frame⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember reading this thing has poor obstacle penetration but I’m assuming that’s talking about walls and furniture, not a pc, but will that be a problem?

  My understanding is it ships with a WiFi dongle. So yes, anything about “poor penetration” is talking about walls / concrete / similar. A port on the back of your PC should not be an issue.

  For the rest, idk.

  STOP TEASING

  A fantastic summary.

  Addendum to #2: to add insult to injury, a lot of the training data in AI models was used without consent. That means that the output of skilled people was stolen from them in order to train systems designed to steal from them again.
