IMO there is a difference in productivity tools and entertainment. With entertainment products they’re usually consumed and then replaced. Productivity tools you’re stuck with and vendor lock in is a real problem.


Trash cans against littering, public restrooms to relieve themselves.
Not really too hard of a concept to grasp.


Which part of littering wouldn’t be solved by trash cans?


Yeah. So? Most reactions to terror attacks are very irrational. This is among them.


Maybe Japan could just, you know, erect public trash cans like so many other countries.
The screenshot doesn’t claim to use LLMs though.
Why wouldn’t a language translation service not use a large language model? The service is named after Deep Learning after all.


Anyways, no actual AI company is going to buy $100M of AI cards just to run all of their software through an unfinished community made translation layer, no matter how good it becomes.
Good. So prices might actually be reasonable.


ZLUDA exists.
Then they switch to Qt and realize that VLC and Haruna (a mpv frontend) already cover the bases.


Also Rocket League was bought by EGS and turned exclusive after it already had a following
Doesn’t change that the cited growth happened recently which is years after the takeover.

Too bad you have neither a clue nor some talent to at least make a funny comment.
Buying games on Steam serves 100% my self interest. Some of that money goes into improving open source Linux technologies which I personally benefit from.
If you cannot make factual comments, at least learn how to be funny instead.

if you use unreal engine but don’t sell on egs they get a 5% royalty fee on all your sales.
Sounds like abusing market power.


But Epic is super successful. Its Unreal Engine has almost the entire gaming landscape in a stranglehold and is making big gains in film productions.
Fortnite is one of the most successful games on Earth and EGS exclusive Rocket League recently achieved one million concurrent players.


But it will come back at the next big update.
Not if the update is called Bazzite.


Ubuntu is the windows of linux
Way less successful, though.


It wasn’t for a while.
Does it need to be free software or just work on Linux? In recent years several web-based video editors became popular such as CapCut and Microsoft Clipchamp. They come with the usual disclaimers of being by companies that don’t have your best interest at heart.
Personally, I try to power through Kdenlive and look up tutorials for the little stuff I do.
Edit: https://opencut.app/ but may require running it inside a local Docker container yourself for most stability.
