@hooftly @kentcdodds That isn't the only play. That can use LLLMS to build safe guards against LLMs breaking protections.
English
@kentcdodds They choke the hardware. We wont be allowed to own computers any more watch.
Hyperbolic sure but this is the only play they have
English
Honest question... when open source models advance to Fable/GPT5.6 level, can the US government stop that too? Like, how long can they hold back this avalanche?
English
Frankly would have removed the 4K claim altogether and stuck with 1080p+ upscaled to 4K
Steam Hardware Updates@HardwareSteam
After backlash, Valve has changed their statement on 4K gaming at 60 FPS to 4K gaming on the Steam Machine page (before and after) 😭
English
@SadlyItsBradley Just wish their overlay system was open-source or an open standard. This is the VR OS stuff that matters and it's totally closed.
English
I guess I never really talked about this yet
The past few months: Valve has been working on specialized VR overlays that run on a PC, and streamed to Headsets (as mentioned by Ben’s QT below)
They are referred to as “Remote Frames” and I have major curiosity of how they’ll work
Ben Lang@benz145
Little tidbit of info from Valve: "SteamVR overlays are supported locally on Steam Frame, and we will be working on deeper integration for overlays running on connected streaming PCs in the coming months." @SadlyItsBradley

@TheRealKoolala @valigo The whole of windows xp source code was leaked at some point
English
This is kinda pathetic. I can copy-paste leaked Windows kernel much faster than in 38 minutes
It's FOSS@Itsfoss
So this kind of misuse of AI is why Fable 5 was banned?
English
@gabefollower Valve datamining gets weirder with every passing year
English
A tour of Gabe Newell's new 111-metre superyacht, the Leviathan, revealed that the owner made an unusual request to replace the traditional upper deck saloon with a high-tech gaming room.
"We designed the gaming table and collaborated with the owner's IT specialists to integrate equipment including ceiling cameras and a projector for holograms and virtual reality. The table is surrounded by gaming chairs".
They even included a photo of a group of people playing Counter-Strike 2 in the ocean.

Literally incorrect.
They wouldn't be telling people to change the operating system completely to whatever they want if it was just for toe dipping.
It's RIGHT THERE ON THE PAGE.
Evan Nyland@nyland_evan
@olivercampbell Somebody who'd know about iFixit is not their target audience for this. Someone dipping their toe into PC gaming is. You tell that person they need to remove the whole heatsink, day one, because they wanted to save money? That's simply not a smart play. A headache for everyone.

PS5; selling you a console at a loss for the express purpose of trapping you in their ecosystem with a subscription service for online use
GabeCube; sold near cost, no ecosystem lock in, no subscription fees, ENTRY level plug and play pc with a custom gaming focused Linux OS

Linus Tech Tips believes the PS5 offers better value than the new Steam Machine at current prices. According to Linus, a $600 PS5 or $900 PS5 Pro is a better buy than a $1,049 Steam Machine, especially since both PlayStation consoles include a controller. “You can still buy a PS5 for $600 or a PS5 Pro for $900… and both include a controller.” — Linus Tech Tips
English
@TechGeekAnthony No because then people would buy it for Windows and their stock wouldn't go to their target audience. It's not a console so you can't subsidize it by controlling people's purchases on it.
English
Valve makes BILLIONS via game sales and live services and DLC. It's more profitable than Apple, Google, Microsoft and/or Netflix.
And they couldn't Subsidize this even a little...?
Also if they did they would STILL BE PROFITABLE!

There response was very reasonable for the challenges and they took it seriously.

I'm trying to understand why (and if I'm wrong, please correct me) Valve isn't offering a barebones version of the Steam Machine:
Bring Your Own:
RAM
SSD
Steam OS is free to download anyway, so it's not like there would be a compatibility problem.
That'd cut the price hard.
English
@tax_xempt @Dontcarezh @RyozuK Its not a console 100% so its the other one. You'd never want to think of it that way cause consoles are designed to control how people use them. Performance wise it isn't a bad price for the components in today's too-high prices.
English
@TheRealKoolala @Dontcarezh @RyozuK Its either an overpriced console or an underperforming pc. Neither are very good
English
You know this shit is ass when one of the top 3 selling points is that you dont need to buy it
Silver Spoon🇺🇸@SpoonieSexer
1. Not a console 2. Use literally any controller you want 3. Don't need to buy it to play Steam games 4. Don't need to pay a monthly/annual subscription to play online 5. Can download the OS for free on any PC you want
English
@olivercampbell @NewmanOnGaming @mattxyzed In the Tested interview they explain they tried to see if a no RAM / SDD option would be possible and explain why they couldn't unfortunately.
English
@RyozuK @tax_xempt Paying 1k for a console with a CPU that only has 2 big cores and 4 zen 4c cores is a fucking insult btw. Then adding on top that the GPU is a cut down version of the 7600M card is another insult. Congrats you’re spending 1k on hardware that was build for a laptop 3 years ago 😂
English
@MOOOOrion @TychoBrahe In a better world it would be but we don't live in that world :(
English
I don't want to be a dick or whatever, but the Steam Machine is a computer. It's a fucking computer, guys
English
@RealJohnRose Did they ever show the result side-by-side? In this video they only showed a game and not the PC itself next to the Machine for a full comparison.
English
It is insane for the head of a media company (that sells ridiculously priced merch) to have a champagne socialist attitude to one of the most benevolent game companies in the industry.
Linus knows he can’t replicate the form factor and plug-and-play experience of the Steam Machine.
He’s just desperate for clickbait.
I wish the cuck fairy would just shut up forever sometimes
AlphaFox@alphafox
Linus Tech Tips builds a computer for the same price as the Steam Machine, with almost double the performance. What is the point of this thing again?
English
@fraudfunk @HeadCannon1776 @gabefollower @valve @NintendoAmerica they took down CS:L when it was made in source and done legally so following their rules doesn't work nowadays either
English
@HeadCannon1776 @gabefollower @valve @NintendoAmerica when its done legally but i also remember when they took down tf2 source 2 project because they were using the leaked source code.
unfortunately

A fully playable browser version of Half-Life 2 has just been released to the public. You don't need to download anything, just open the site and play! The webport was created by Slqnt and 98006 in just three months!
English
@all_of_us_are @OatmealMarble It probably won't be. They replace everything because they are upgrading their CPU (and GPU) because of improvements over the years.
English
@OatmealMarble Damn weird how thay 2021 motherboard is angry about the 2026 card
English
"man if you had a real PC you could just upgrade it"
"not me i buy an entirely whole new PC every six years to take advantage of the latest intel chipset and the latest pci-e slot speed and the most SATA channels and"
Trent Reed@trentreed27
I love Steam, but $1,349 is getting into “build a really nice gaming PC” territory. The Steam Machine has to offer something special beyond convenience. Am I missing something here?
English
@Big__TeeJ @NNiedam @theterk @The_Raxir Weird they didn't just say that though. Thats an obvious thing to be transparent about without the vague ego statement. Otherwise you can't even build this.
English
He's not going to be pushing it into that territory 24/7...
That's what he was implying.
He's configured the GPU so that it draws significantly less power (and heat) which are obviously two big factors he had to solve when putting something like this together.
Undervolting can do wonders sometimes offering more performance at lower power usage.
English
Here she is, Terk Box v1. 1
I'm working with the designer about future improvements, but for a first major revision and she's now "complete"
We added more ventilation in the back so the RTX 5060 is no longer choked.
HMU if you want me to build you one.
