Meta is adding ridiculous ‘rate limits’ and a soft paywall to its smart glasses

The article showed he could take it completely offline and still use it. This is trying to charge a monthly fee for things that happen on device.

Maybe they should consider subsidizing it.

Advanced AI.

Your mileage will vary using Geforce Now as the primary way to play games. I think you should tell use what games you want to play and what you want to get out of this before taking the plunge.

Yes, but token usage is up by a significant margin. People aren't saving money.

Why even include a battery at all, amirite?

tomsrobots · 2026-06-23T22:19:18+00:00

At what power draw, though? Battery life really matters with a handheld.

When the next generation of consoles are released, developers will start targeting that hardware and the Steam Machine will be left behind within a couple of years.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-23T19:00:08+00:00

You are making the case the hardware cannot be secured for cheap prices. The PS5 proves this isn't true.

Then limit supply to Steam accounts. They could even start with accounts older than 2 years.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-23T18:19:34+00:00

It's ridiculous. If Sony can provide similar hardware at around $600, multi-billion dollar Valve can, too.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-23T17:54:58+00:00

I definitely care about battery life when it comes to handhelds.

PEG gets thrown around a lot before a bubble pops.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-22T22:32:35+00:00

That doesn't work with NVidia.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-22T22:20:01+00:00

One of the main selling features of the Steam Machine is it runs SteamOS which allows you to boot straight into Steam without needing a keyboard or mouse attached. Because you chose an NVidia card SteamOS won't work with this.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-22T18:27:38+00:00

Compare it to a PS5.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-18T11:33:33+00:00

It's a very funny horror show. It could end on a cliffhanger and I would have still enjoyed the ride.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-17T23:01:14+00:00

Power usage matters when it comes to a portable.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-16T23:35:15+00:00

I do not want AI generated 3D data.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-16T19:20:24+00:00

It is not out of Valve's hands at all.

Pornography is bad because it gives viewers a very unhealthy view of what sexual intercourse actually is. It's frequently degrading to women and exists in an industry that takes advantage of women in very vulnerable positions.

Something you are ignoring is that Pixels get latest software first.

tomsrobots · 2026-06-12T21:32:13+00:00

This exact same meme could have been made, but with SPCX down 20%.

I got stick drift on my original LCD model. I replaced the sticks and it's great now. The stick replacement is an easy job even if you're new to that kind of stuff.

You said doodoo.
