  • Totally get it. But, being real, budget is always a relative term. I wouldn’t have been able to afford the cheapest version before, period. Mine was gifted to me. Items like this are only “budget” if you actually have a budget for a one off gaming device in the first place.

    I’m in the same boat as you if mine dies. No way in hell could I swing even the prices on the LCD version if they still offered them, much less the oled. It’s what? 750+ USD for the lower tier version? That’s almost my fucking mortgage. The LCD would still sit at the 600+ range most likely.

    And the deck is technically a full PC if you get a dock and set it up, but that’s still a damn big outlay for a low tier PC.

    So, yeah, fuck Altman and every other dipshit pushing hopped up llms like they’re the second coming.



  • Well, I am charming as fuck lol. Maybe.

    Bad joke aside, from what I’ve seen it’s more about how they disagree more than the fact of. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a fundamental personality issue going on there, and he can be difficult. I just haven’t seen much in the way of arbitrary bans just for holding different beliefs. There is a lower threshold for, shall we say, aggressive disagreements though.

    Mind you, I don’t haunt the mod logs and track down every occurrence. Just taking a general sense of things over the years.
