It's possible AI data centers will just be outsourced to other countries. You don't really need the data center to exist locally in the US

You're seeing the US fall into fascism in real time, and this is what you're concerned about?

...now the question is do we want to implement a command for that

Deck 2 probably won't come out before the next generation of chips at least

They very much are, there's just little to no political will to implement them

In the end, the stock market is a natural logical progression from the starts of capitalism, and the situation we are in today is again closer to capitalism logical conclusion

From capitalism's basic principles, profit above literally everything was always bound to happen. Just how evolution happens through natural selection. It's a similar process. Because ultimately capitalism is an economic system built on competition, not cooperation.

I don't know enough about the subjects to go into details, but I know enough to say that that is reductive. ARM/alternatives are not inherently better, at least not universally. And, especially because of the inertia, I do not expect x86 to be fully replaced on the desktop any time soon. The motivations behind companies such as Apple using ARM likely have more to do with licensing than anything else

It's probably more useful to think of x86 and ARM as slightly different tools that are slightly better suited to different tasks. Desktop, server (and possibly high-performance) computing are x86's specialty, and I do not expect it to be replaced

All-in-all, from what I know, the practical differences between ARM and x86 are nowhere near large enough to be compared to something like the electric vs internal combustion engine. It's probably closer to a difference of, say, a typical train and a subway

But, please read up on this yourself. I am not an expert in hardware, this is just what i casually picked up as a layperson

It's very much not? It's not even certain if an alternative architecture will ever fully replace it

You can't exactly compare the studio to how it was a decade ago..

Sure, but space habitats are far far more useful than underwater ones

There is definitively no shortage of challenges in orbit

With VR an important aspect you're not mentioning is the 3D movement you are now able to do, inhabiting the played character in a more true to form way
