oh I thought MSFT already owned them. I guess not.

Here use my subpar shit niche unix operating system that has no compatibility for absolutely anything instead. Lol.

Whats the alternative, windows and mac, in the age of A.I. where every company needs data? No. Thank. You.

I so badly do not want this to be true but I think you’re right. Its basically a Shiticon Valley special.

I agree with both of those, the prior more than the latter.

There is a huge amount of value IMO though to normies being available on Threads for me though because I can finally interface with them in a neutral way on my own terms, while still coming in contact with them.

Their problems usually range to why I don’t have an instagram, and how come they can’t interact with me. I LOVE FOSS. But I am able to see that there are some trade offs and this is about as close as I’ll come to seeing these two worlds bridging.

Epic games has its own store: its competing. There is no way they want to support the steamdeck right now. Same goes for xbox/Activision in a lot of ways and anything they’re doing for the time being is just a way to sedate the law makers that objected to M$ activision acquisition.

Going to add that Epic Games blaming engineering headcount is a BS measure to distract from it too. They just got done suing Google. They absolutely want every part of the bottom line they can grab. Many companies have cut/are cutting programming staff to hedge bets they will be fully replaced if not mostly replaced in 5-10 years.

I mean that is what I pay EFF to lobby for; I’m sure they’re working on it.

I think its sorta inverse: we need a computer programming language made for AIs to interface with, along with CI/CD it can use.
