At $1,050, the #SteamMachine is DOA. This is the end of PC Gaming 😥

- $1,049 - 512GB
- $1.130 - 512GB + #SteamController
- $1,350 - 2TB
- $1,430 - 2TB + Steam Controller

You're paying $1,000 for 4-year old hardware: #Zen4 6@12, 16GB RAM, RDNA3 8GB VRAM (similar to RX 7600M, RTX 3060~ Desktop).

This makes the #PS5Pro look cheap 🤯.

Wow, another great video by #JustJosh: "Gaming" laptops on Amazon are a scam?

My rule of thumb: RTX for gaming, Apple for working, the rest for anything else.

Edit-to-add: I like coding, problem solving, hunting for root-causes, enabling all levels to better understand and use their systems. I do this now, but I need to feed my family, thus payment is the exchange. I'd do it for free if I could.

On my own time projects:

Creating a console TUI/library to use Skylanders Portal to read & Adjust/Alter Figs/1

Nice to see that #WulffDen coincides with my recommendation: the #Switch2 is the best deal in gaming.

Even then, the #XboxROGAlly is surprisingly a very close second alternative.

For $599, it's one of the most affordable handleds around... until it gets a price increase in the coming months.

No device is safe.

Is this the best deal in gaming right now?

What's sad about the twilight of PC is that also content creators will get less revenue.

The less people are interested in new PC technologies, the less there is incentive to see PC content.

Okay my #pchardware people. What would be a low cost GPU that would run Windows 11 reasonably well. I picked up a contract job and need to run Windows 11/Microsoft 365 in a libvirt VM. I'd like to have a bit better graphic performance so I am going to use GPU pass through.
