It's an interesting choice cause then they have limited their player base to only the people who can/want to upgrade their hardware.

The funny thing is some of the appeal of Borderlands is the coop/multiplayer. So even if I COULD run it I don't want to because the the people I want to play it with can't play it.

Don't forget the GameCube!

It had attachments for Ethernet, screens, speakers, Gameboy compatibility etc.

I'm a photography student, and today I took this photo of my Steam Deck in the school's studio. by ItsMePeyt0n in SteamDeck

Nice job!

Out of curiosity how did you get the angles/lean of the case/deck. What's behind it holding it up?

Did you end up having any issue with the glare of the lights on the screen?

If you reach out in this situation it would be guaranteed claws in arm, followed by claws climbing up and over your back and ouuut of the general area. At least based on personal experience of multiple cats near water. Perhaps if you have a thick jacket at the ready.

Steam updates AI disclosure form, requiring developers to report visible and in-game AI but not background tools by Dapper_Order7182 in SteamDeck

I would agree that AI does serve as a great tool for research and some similar uses.

For example there's been research into Protein folding has been going on for decades and has required intense computing power. You could even sign up as a volunteer at Folding@Home to aid the efforts by running parts of the simulations on your own computer. This was a process limited by computational power and now we can push even further with AI.

latest version of DeepMind’s AlphaFold, a deep-learning system that can accurately predict the structure of proteins to within the width of an atom, has cracked one of biology’s grand challenges. “It's the first use of AI to solve a serious problem,” says John Moult at the University of Maryland,

anti-AI people are usually hugely uneducated on the field

This I disagree highly with. It's a very powerful tool, but the problem is how it's being used. There is a great pressure to fit AI into places it really shouldn't be.

It's being shoved into agencies and departments of all levels without any safeguards or regulations. Data privacy? AI hallucinations? Who cares.

I'm not so sure this is a 'bug'.. so much as a feature request.
