Because they can't get actual content deals.

YouTube videos are a terrible source of revenue.

If it doesn't bug you, more power to you. Maybe it's because you're playing a racing game where an input doesn't immediately hit the screen anyways. Hitting the gas takes time to accelerate, steering is about gradually modifying your lines, etc.

But it's definitely there, in both windows and Linux.

Every single one of these is straight cancer with no redeeming qualities.

The complexity of English is a beautiful thing, driven by its rich heritage of influences. The language is complex because the culture and etymology are complex. It's supposed to be.

The latency with Bluetooth is really bad.

I don't think making it the default is realistic.

But steam offers games to offer custom branches for users to select. It would not be particularly difficult for publishers to provide one (or more) lower resolution asset branch for users to select. I really wish Steam had taken advantage of publishers wanting to support Steam deck to nudge them into doing this.

Vignetting is the darkening in a circle pattern at the edge of a photograph/movie caused by the fact that the lens is round and the film/sensor are square.

My guess is that he's referring to games using a similar effect (some do it with blur, too) extremely heavily on a large portion of the edge of the screen to create a tunnel vision effect in some contexts. I couldn't name which games do it, but I've seen it on sprint, stamina depletion, and low health in different games.

I can read perfectly fine.

You claiming to be an expert when your assertion proves that it's literally impossible for you to be is simply not persuasive. You're doing the equivalent of claiming to be a geologist while arguing for a flat earth. It's inherently proof that you're full of shit.

You and the other 5 million companies hemorrhaging money on extremely heavy operations that are universally fucking terrible.

If you're willing to claim LLMs are even 1% of the way to what he asked for, you either have absolutely no clue what the tech is or you're a scammer trying to steal money from people.

The cutting edge of LLMs have nothing in common with intelligence.

No, they aren't. They aren't a little short of capable. You could multiply their capability overnight and have no shot of not immediately being the worst written game ever made.

There's a huge difference between stringing together words in the shape of a story and actually putting together something with a shrewd of cohesion. We're not talking mediocre here. We're talking laughably short of absolute dogshit.

Your claim was about current LLMs.

But it's a fundamental limitation of what LLMs are. They are not AI. They do not have anything in common with intelligence, and they don't have a particularly compelling path forward.

They also, even if they weren't actually terrible for almost every purpose, are obscenely heavy and what we're calling "current" isn't something capable of being executed on consumer hardware, dedicated card or not.

Finally, the idea that they can't get worse is just as flawed. They're heavily poisoning the well of future training data, and ridiculous copyright nonsense has the very real possibility of killing training further even though training on copyrighted material doesn't in any way constitute copyright infringement.

Big picture mode has been updated to match the steam deck UX, too. You can pretty easily launch straight into big picture mode.

I'm not sure the process to bypass a login like I used to for my dedicated gaming desktop, though.

Are these just affiliate link bait?

Copy pasting the publisher blurb isn't exactly discussion worthy.
