I think the problem you're running into is that Valve isn't doing nothing with that pay.
Like valve is actively making my gaming experience better by developing cheap hardware and a good system for gaming on Linux.
All the games I've ever bought, regardless of if they still sell them are in my library.
My save files are cloud synced for free.
I as the end user am having a good time.
I also have a sunk cost thing going on. I've been trying to buy and play more GOG games but I just have so much that works already on Linux without any work that it's hard to justify the tinker time to get it working otherwise.
They provide such a good service I think we've all forgotten about the children casinos for CSGO2 skins, but even that they're fixing (kinda).
Maybe its just nice to not be mad about something. Like its just video games, I don't really care if Valve has a monopoly on that since 1) Experience is good 2) they're not trying to have like a monopoly on water or something important. Bad take maybe, but there's enough going on that I just don't know if I could make myself care that valve is like 90% of videogame sales. Or whatever it is.
I think you missed the guy this is targeted at.
Worry not though. I get it. There isn't a lot of nuance in the AI discussion anymore and the anti-AI people are quite rude these days about anything AI at all.
You did good work homie!
This + Local Wikipedia + My own writings would be sick
Chinese and Russian agents keep intercepting them because they wanna see him do it
Its my favorite fact that absolutely no woman has ever fantasized about the hyper muscular super hero bods.
And in fact, I had no idea this comic artist was a man until this moment lol
I'm not convinced AI slop can compete with the back log of organic slop personally.
But yeah a fuckton is probably slop either way
Personally, I view it as propaganda still, but I don't view propaganda as bad inherently.
Propaganda to me is just an organized effort to persuade a larger audience of people politically. Its only bad if the aims are harmful unjustly.
So people organizing a take over to reiterate "No fucking Nazis!" Is a propaganda campaign, but its based.
Societal collapse? No gold won't save you. Tools and how to use them will.
Maybe during hyperinflation though.
Gods not a terrible investment but it doesn't have a short term ROI just a REALLY long term one.
I hate Bitcoin but its probably a better investment (and just as useful) than gold.
I'm a fudd though and ONLY buy stable stocks that yield reliable dividends though. ETFs, S&P stuff.
There's a few options now, but you can get Intel N100 ITX boards Like this one from ASUS with a soldered on N100 CPU for the cost of a normal motherboard.
If its just a NAS, and I do recommend having a separate Just a NAS, that CPU fucks hard.
I actually just want them to make proton drive work on Linux. That's all I need.
Yeah that's what's going to happen with the main blog.
Forgejo action > static HTML site > Cloudflared tunnel
This separate idea is to have a Lemmy instance to host pictures and federate the blogs comment system so people ideally won't have to sign in or make an account to comment.
