As an AMD GPU person I’ve been chuckling at the Nvidia drama from my high horse, but I guess I’m not safe either lmao

“Ladies, Gentlemen, they/them”

‘Gentlemen’ and ‘them’ basicly rhyme so could be something there 👀

I also like, “Hes, shes, and NBs”

“Ladies and GentleThey”

Id love to know

Looks good. How was it

And this is why we need regional pricing that adjusts for things like gdp/capita or average income

Yeah I’ve heard Ardour can be a bit difficult for new users for sure, which is frustrating because it’s probably the most well respected FOSS DAW out there (or at least the most professional).

You might also try LMMS or Bitwig studio

I’ve heard Ardour is great but has a little bit of a learning curve. Once you get comfortable with it, it should work as well as any other DAW and its completely FOSS

Your intuition is correct that the steam machine will go up in price but I think It’ll still have an edge over building your own PC for a couple of reasons:

1. Valve has economies of scale and can make contracts directly with Dram manufacturers/distributers

2. The Steam Machine is just already cheaper to make than a pre-built because it has a custom APU (rather than a standalone graphics card). Not to mention running Linux means not having to pay for a windows licence

3. The Steam Machine only has 16 GB of RAM. Most everyone I know building gaming PCs with DDR5 are using 32 GB

The steam machine is not a cutting edge device, but its lower end capabilities may become normalised if building a new PC becomes cost prohibitive. It may force the whole gaming industry to take a step back for a few years. And I mean, the steam Machine can play Cyberpunk 2077 at 4k 60 fps with FSR upscaling so its got enough performance for lots of consumers

I also think this would be positive honestly

If building a PC does in fact get too expensive for individuals, I wonder what that will do for the sale of the Steam Machine which should (theoretically) get people into PC gaming for much cheaper. Maybe all-in-one pre-built PC’s like the steam machine become the norm…idk

Beautiful

Honestly, if you have an old phone laying around that accepts micro SD cards then just throw VLC on it and put your music on a mSD and you’re set.

I’ve had terrible luck finding a good music player at an affordable price that plays FLAC files which is like 90%+ of my library. So I’m looking into getting a raspberry pi 4 with maybe 4 or 8 gigs of RAM and making an music player (I will be printing the case with a 3d printer)

This is exactly my first thought

Look, I don’t know how the average Lemme user feels about crypto, but if NSFW game creators created a platform where purchases happen only in crypto then MasterCard/Visa/Paypal would be irrelevant
