First iterations of a console always start out small. It's the second iteration that has the consumer confidence and you get a boom in sales. If the Steam Machine drops this year. I expect it to sell 10 million consoles in the first year.

This is how it's done man. Keep it up.

lol, I'm sure you could just casually walk away from them in a serpentine pattern and avoid any harm. Likely they are too busy clearing Cheeto dust from their neck beard anyways.

yeah, I've heard many times the Play Stations have use FreeBSD for a while now.

what exactly does MacOS Own exactly

Definitely not the server space. OSX Server flopped in the early 2000's. But you know, OSX is definitely "unix".

IoT is 80% Linux. Linux owns every space except Game Console and Desktop, at least that I can think of.

I believe you, but so far I can spot AI art from a mile away. When I do, I just hit the back button. It's not interesting. It's okay when it's used as a joke for memes. Maybe it's going to look different in the real world on an advertisement or something. But, really, if I can spot it in the real world, I'll think the product is fake. I'm definitely the type of person who wont buy if I think that. I'm sure that's not everybody but, if it is a good percentage is, I'd say companies are going to want to pay real artists. Interesting to see where it all goes.

It's definitely not comparing Server performance because OSX Server flopped in the early 2000's.

Wow, right over your head dude. It's just the sentiment he is sharing.

Yeah that extra Microsoft tax is a killer. Plus, you'll notice your systems seems new and snappy for the life of the hardware, unlike Windows. Where your system gets slower and slower every year. I used a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro with Ubuntu until a couple years ago. It was great until I just needed a ton more ram and tons of cores for my dev project. I basically out grew the system, it still works great, fast and snappy. Gave it to my cousin who uses it as a daily driver.

I've heard good thing about Tumbleweed. I'm sure that will keep your system feeling fast and new for life of the hardware.

OSX Server would like a word.

That's actually the same reason I switched to Linux. I thought it was stupid that I would have to upgrade my hardware just to use the latest WindowsME. Switching to Linux back then. Let me enable all the new textures for Everquest. With Windows my system wasn't performant enough. I though it stupid and I had perfectly good hardware that still ran for several more years just fine. The TPM thing is absolute B.S. and worse then why I switched.
