they very well might buy them by the thousands

For the Steam Machine, Valve is selling them via a lottery, and only to pre-existing accounts. I suspect they will do the same for the Frame.

Also, I’m skeptical that businesses would even want to buy many, because you don’t see them buying Quests by the thousands. It probably would still end up as a small number compared to total sales.

The Playstation supercomputer is pretty funny though

With the machine they can’t, because it would work so well as a general purpose computer for offices and such. I think they could have subsidized it a bit though as long as it didn’t dip below the price of an equivalent traditional desktop. For the frame though, they absolutely could. I suppose some percentage of users won’t buy from steam, but I don’t think price would affect that percentage much unless it was super cheap. Realistically it’s going to push game sales a lot for valve.

Yeah, 1080p is fine on a small laptop screen, or a small TV on the other side of the room, but it’s unusable for desktop applications. Even 1440 is noticeably low res. I disagree about phones, though. I think 1080p is overkill and 720p is fine.

This is bullshit. Adobe had a negative space verion of the a, but never used anything that looks like this until very recently. Meanwhile Delta has beem using this logo for well over a decade.

Also, it’s a pretty generic logo that probably shouldn’t be trademarkable. (the earlier negative space version, sure, but not what amounts to basically just a triangle)

It sucks that corporations can basically just decide that something is theirs now, and force everyone else to stop using it.

Ugh, headlines have gotten so bad these days. I clicked because I was curious why they did a 180 on policy…

Hmmmm…

Edit: you can kinda think of it being 0, plus the 1/1 that would have ended up as a remainder in larger bases. In base 2, it just ends up being a full 1.

See my other comment, it’s no coincide– there’s a pattern. I would love to see an actual proof for it though, I don’t know enough to say why it behaves that way.

This sequence approximates an integer to arbitrary precision, not 8 specifically though, and never perfectly.

I tried it out using other bases, and the rule seems to be that doing this in base n results in n-2 with remainder n-1. So it doesn’t ever actually converge, but the remainder becomes small very fast.

My guess is $30, could be $40 although I doubt it after the response they got.

How does this compare to element [matrix] ?

+1 for ferns.

They love low light, they’re easy to care for, and they look great hanging. And most are 100% cat safe.

(as an aside, most toxic houseplants are unlikely to cause more than irritation or an upset stomach unless the cat eats a lot of it.)

I love typing ‘yay kitty’ on a new install
