Unfortunately, my understanding is that Meta’s offerings are so cheap because they’re making a loss on the hardware to undercut competitors that don’t have the resources or desire to do the same.

I was leaving you the option to do so instead of telling you to stop as a courtesy. Considering you would rather not, I will change my approach to hopefully better suit you:

Stop replying to me. I do not want to talk to you.

it’s frustrating and difficult to talk to you about this issue. I still am confused as to the point that you have. Feel free to continue to attempt to explain it, but I’m not interested in continuing to talk to you. Thank you for your time.

The steam deck is making them money, that was a product developed by fucking around.

I don’t know how you read that from what I said, or how I could have “said this as if” anything. It’s a fact that stands alone.

Do you think that devs and engineers pay for prototypes themselves?

Whatever bud, enjoy being convinced you’re right so hard that you get mad at other people I guess. I guess the end result of the steam machine project or the steam controller or the index or the vive or the steam deck and multiple people at Valve describing that’s how it works are just not real because how they came to exist at all don’t make sense to you.

Steam made Valve more than $2,000,000,000 in 2021.

They have infinite money forever.

Gabe Newell runs a biotech company as well.

A couple million on a blue-sky product development pipeline is an incidental cost for the most part.

Considering a post-scarcity universe where the machines they’re working with can take even those considerations away from us (IIRC the replicators automatically do adjust nutrients/calories per-person per-meal). I think after a while, someone would’ve just… Gotten bored and futzed with it. I’d also assume consumers on earth to contribute to the databases. Heck, there could be a whole food influencer culture thing going on. “Oh man, you haven’t lived until you’ve tried ‘eggs, scrambled, variant 37578a’!”

I mean, that is conjecture right? With how much the real military puts into food science, I could imagine that there’s a Federation food science division that could easily make a dish from scratch a number of times and store each attempt’s pattern as a random variation that gets distributed out to the fleet.

Icky!

I’m a millennial with a gen z sister, can confirm it’s very swag.

Sokath, his eyes open.

What would a liberal who doesn’t dispose of their values look like in this situation?

I do mean this question sincerely, if possible please try to avoid the easy non-answer of “That doesn’t exist hahahahahahahahah”.

I guess I just don’t understand the relevance of his other opinions to the discussion about the specific ones we’re talking about.

“I was served a plate of raw chicken tenders” “The chef usually makes Michelin quality meals”

It just doesn’t advance the actual discussion.

That doesn’t make any sense. He’s a valuable addition to… What general community, humanity? I mean, I’m not disputing that he has a following, I just don’t see how that has anything to do with the discussion around his self-professed and now recanted dogshit awful opinions about the lives of other humans.

What’s the purpose of your post? It comes off as agreement with his message at worst, and an irrelevant non sequitor at best.

You’ve made the mystic cry. Look at her, using her incredibly calloused hands to wipe her tears away from her eyes. She had just put in a couple breathmints, too.

I do try to keep the “unknown unknowns” problem in mind when I use it, and I’ve been using it far less as I latched on to how OOP actually works and built up the lexicon and my own preferences. I try to only ask it for high-level stuff that I can then use to search the wider (hopefully more human) internet more traditionally with. I fully appreciate that it’s nothing more than a very incredibly fancy auto-completion engine and the basic task of auto-complete just so happens to appear intelligent as it gets better and more complex but continues to lack any form of real logical thoughts.

I believe accessibility is the part that makes LLMs helpful, when they are given an easy enough task to verify. Being able to ask a thing that resembles a human what you need instead of reading through possibly a textbook worth of documentation to figure out what is available and making it fit what you need is fairly powerful.

If it were actually capable of reasoning, I’d compare it to asking a linguist the origin of a word vs looking it up in a dictionary. I don’t think anyone disagrees that the dictionary would be more likely to be fully accurate, and also I personally would just prefer to ask the person who seemingly knows and, if I have reason to doubt, then go back and double-check.
