China’s biggest hurdle is not the ability to make a chip, but more the ability to get good yields. It’s more or less running into the same problem Intel did with 10nm, and what samsung has and the main reason why basically every chip maker is behind tsmc on bleeding edge.

This has the potential of accelerating a switch from x86/arm to more open standards.

hardware is a two way street, the other is getting a proper OS environment and people to be behind said projects. It’s not like RISC-V designs aren’t currently available.For example, Pine64’s risc-v options have been available in the market for quite some time now. And DeepComputing is trying to release its framework laptop equivalent board using a StarFive JH7110. It will only accelerate if there is a bodies available to create the ecosystem in it, and as of the moment, not many developers are putting effort into making it an ecosystem.

An example of why hardware/software need to coexist is Snapdragon X Elite on Linux, as well as Asahi Linux(Arm based Macs on Linux). Neither are complete projects and do not hit the same performance their native OS versions hit yet remotely(nor efficiency). Theres a LOT you have to do to optimize hardware to the OS, and that just doesn’t happen instantly.

The only thing you have to watch out for is that the Pi on its own is not a great device to transcode natively on, so you’re using the client devices to be able to watch content on the Pi. So be wary of which media files you download and what your devices support.

you don’t have to onsider off platform titles on its own. just take proton DBs list and sort by playercount and youll have your handful of misses on some of the top currently played titles. that already filters the non steam games already, and it still has its small handful of titles not on board yet.

sadly theres a line between shouldn’t and how the market responds to it. Regardless of the fact, it is a hurdle, and the reason why not all of the top games on the concurrent player list on steam is playable on SteamOS, whether one likes it or not.

the biggest wall imo is still getting companies with anticheat games on board.

Do you think most games might perform better on linux in the future?

maybe, depends on steamOS hardware adoption rate. You’re far more likely going to see windows regress in performance rather than linux get better upper tier performance on average (imo)

When game makers put more effort towards optimising for linux considering linux has less bloatware etc?

theyll optimize for linux whent he market grows enough for it, which I personalyl believe will only happen when Linux gets at least ~30% of the steam hardware survey OS market.

not many devs will spend time to cater to 2% of the steam market.

vim is a very common text editor. hes just using it as an example program to install/remove

there are edge cases where linux performa better, especially with older apis because dx9/dx11 to vulkan allows for more draw calls than thr native language can do.

then you have rare situations like elden rings launch ehere shader caching was broken on windows and vulkans shader caching on linux worked making elden ring play better on linux

specifically the pokemon, or the games ins aid generation.

gen 5 is imo objectively the best generation in terms of game content (virtually every game after black 2/white 2 has less content)

aa for pokemon designs, slight edge to gen 3, with 4 and 7 not particularly far behind.

to play devils advocate, its good for people who understand the numbers its terrible for people who ungabunga big number da better.

its on a similar boat to how acer names its monitors (the letter nonsense on a acer monitor tells you what features it has without having to read the spec sheet e.g the I’s in the name represent how many HDMI ports it has)

its because people dont understand why they dont need some specs. e.g the pupose of a very high brightness is if you often use your phone in a very bright area. the ads just dont tell users that and only just the value. if the brightness of your current phone is fine, then brightness should no longer be a valueable spec past what your current screen has.

same situation with performamce as users dont really know what kind of performance they need.

none of this doesn’t refute anything ive said. the whole point to prevent open ai from getting profit is to prevent it from getting big to the point that the rest are worthless. anyone who has a foot in AI would not want open ai to go for profit, as that on its own is a limiter to how fast it can grow. Strictly speaking, any non-profit organization has a significantly harder time to expand than ones that are for profit.

for profit would imply they can grow even faster due to having funds to expand its service. You would be against it if you plan on having your own competing AI service(which meta clearly does)

the only difference between this and the internal one is that its more sucepptible to piercing damage, but the contraption itself isnt any more inherently dangerous conpared to the battery in the tablet itself.

if youre worried about house fires at all one shouldnt even use lithium ion batteries period.

which is the same logic as a screen if it gets THAT bad. that’s not any real reason to complain about Oleds when the battery in it will die out sooner.

OLED screen replacements already exist on iFixit who is the repair partner for valve.

you can argue the “consumable nature” of li-ion batteries is likely to hit earlier than the consumable nature of oled realistically speaking.

Part of the reason why when people were saying they wanted competition to unseat x86, I didn’t want it to be ARM based, because I knew 100% that ARM would jump in and do some shit to rake in more profit and negate all the potential cost savings to the consumer. As long as theres a single(or in the case of x86, essentially (but technically not) duopoly) that controls all the options for one of the options, then it’s not a good form of competition.
