So i wonder why there’s an US army base in greenland?

Because they are indeed cowards.

15 years old you probably wouldn’t be here on lemmy

Windows, google, photoshop now all comes with AI. Are you going to avoid any product made with these? AI isn’t just a tool to generate a game with a click, it can offer all sort of feedback and tools, for example it could be used to change the color of a box without having to do it manually. Unless the whole process is documented you will not be able to tell if AI has been used or not.

Gabe Newell is infamously libertarian.

So libertarian he become a billionare thanks to a platform where you don’t own any of your games.

Valve ceo just added a $500 million mega yacht to his fleet. Valve true benefit is that thanks to window they managed to build a monopoly on videogames distribuition and that their customers are kids addicted to videogames.

I don’t love much how people fall from valve marketing. Not owning any game i buy would piss me off

You are wrong daikiki. AI is a tech that is going to change everything, it’s the “computers” of this era, they are investing in a technology that will boom. Even if you don’t think it will they will push it, see what google is doing, they rigged up the search results and now you necessarily have to use AI to get good answers, it’s also there by default so you can’t really avoid it.

Many people have no interest in replacing PC parts

Many people have no interest in replacing their car tires and they just want to drive but i’m sure they would be really pissed if once a tire bursts they would have to replace the car.

It is also very hard for them to do marketing selling third parties modular parts, it’s much better for them to come up with a product.

If you want to swap your GPU, build your own SFF.

If you want to replace parts in your computer so that it doesn’t became useless in 5 years or end up in a landfill when a piece break, build your own SFF

A computer you can’t swap the GPU?

“Over 5,000 games released on Steam this year didn’t make enough money to recover the $100 fee to put a game on Valve’s store, research estimates”

They need their products to be as clean as possible to hook people into microtransactions and their proprietary platform. Valve is a for profit company and the ceo owns a fleet of mega yachts

I will never understand the hypocritical surveillance state apologism when it comes to China or Russia on this site.

People get brainwashed to conform, when they don’t like a side they urge to pick another

Chinese government is not trying to oppress their citizens

yes they are

In this case we should indeed report on them because it is not much clear to the public what palantir does and they have ties and contracts with the government

“A surveillance state is needed to beat china who is evil because it’s a surveillance state”

Now what about the numbers for Russian warplanes and Russian nuclear subs? What are your sources for those figures? They surely aren’t found in a wikipedia article about the american military

In the wikipedia article about the russian military

I do notice, however, that you have linked not a single article or source for the claims in these comments. Where are your numbers coming from?

From the wikipedia pages you didn’t even open

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_B-2_Spirit

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_Martin_F-22_Raptor

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_aircraft_carriers_of_the_United_States_Navy

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_submarines_of_the_United_States_Navy

It’s not that hard you can compare it yourself, google how many military assets russia have. USA spend a trillion in war each year and as a result they have almost a thousand operative fifth generation planes (for comparison russia has less than 25). USA has about 70 nuclear submarines where russia has 20
