I'm not in a positive headspace and so many of my cohorts are in the same position.
I was born in the eighties - if I'm not old, I'm certainly getting there faster than not - and as much as, I am likely in the very few lucky ones, many of my colleagues aren't as lucky, if not downright unlucky.

I hope this craze crashes hard enough that Sam Altman is prosecuted across the planet. This shit is ridiculous.

Stupid idea:
A @steampowered.com Fremont / Machine *without DDR5 and NVMe*.
A bare-bones unit, if you will.
'cause I just ordered a Frame.work laptop with one 16gb SODIMM as I hope to the fates (and the 2025 writers room) that the AI boom will crash to hell and restore some balance to tech spend.

We need a new word for the emotional whiplash of finding out a cute bird video you enjoyed turns out to be AI
It's like a hollowing, it's just- awful

This was one hell of an undertaking. We still have a lot to learn with Linux benchmarking, but we finally have a foundation for it. This is our first-ever round of desktop Linux GPU gaming benchmarks -- we've previously only done this on handhelds: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovOx...

A @valvesoftware.com @steampowered.com "benchmark mode" could be interesting.
Alternatively, could @gamersnexus.bsky.social literally just enable steam offline mode for a week or so on those systems? That'd stop updates from happening, or am I too naive?

I may be an atheist, but I have to give credit where it's due: the 2025 writers' room is trying to redeem itself.
Won't fucking work, 2025 is far from being a highlight of this decade, but nevertheless, this was... Surprising and refreshing, coming from organized religion.

Okay so here's the stupidest idea.
@valvesoftware.com's GabeCube (Steam Machine) HTPC unit might be priced far above what one could or otherwise would expect, right?
Let's assume, for now, that it will be priced at 800$, making it an "ehhhhhhhh" choice instead of "ABSOLUTELY MUST BUY MULTIPLE".

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!
Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.
