Sony charges a monthly fee to play online…

The sale happened last week…

But don’t let that get in the way of your opinions

It’s really getting to the point Gabe needs to cash out and turn Steam into a non-profit…

I trust him while he’s alive, but some day he’ll die, and who knows what will happen to Steam.

We could wake up one morning and find out there’s a $10 monthly fee to access Steam’s “services” including every game you ever purchased.

We can’t just cost on the hopes nothing changes forever.

Did they ever get it to be actual AI?

Last time I heard about it they were just paying very low wages to people in India to watch everyone on webcams or something stupid

Ease of use, manages updates and just keeps it all together.

My first PC games you had to exit windows and load the game thru DOS, it meant we learned how computers actually worked, but it was a hassle.

Not really…

The reason it will domino is AI companies can’t afford the hardware, so Nvidia “invests” in AI companies and trades hardware for shares.

They have like 100 billion just in OpenAI, which they’re leveraging into loans to make more of the chips no one can afford.

If openai goes down, the banks call in the loans Nvidia has openai for collateral. So then Nvidia will have to sell all their other shares of other AI companies to cover the loans, and likely will have to drastically cut production of AI chips, driving the cost up.

Now all those other AI companies that Nvidia just sold, can’t afford the higher price, because they couldn’t afford a subsidized price along with shares.

As those companies fold, it makes even less people who would even want to buy those AI chips at any prices, driving Nvidia further down and maybe all the way to bankrupt

That’s when it starts fucking with index funds and the wider market

But all those shadow banks won’t really get hit. They’re not holding stocks to make money, they’re buried treasure chests filled with liquid assets in case of emergency. The only way they’d be hit is if the currency they’re held in collapses. Even then, that method almost always includes safety deposit boxes with precious metals/jewels to account for that

You’ll know because when it dies it’s going to cause a huge market crash and take a shit ton of other companies with it…

Huh?

Assuming that’s true it wouldn’t mean “no”, it would mean:

They do, but they used to too

There’s two types:

1. Mental addiction

2. Physical addiction

For #2 it’s pretty clear cut: they get the shakes between 12-48 hrs without drinking

For #1 there’s a lot of grey area, but basically someone who becomes agitated when they can’t drink on their normal schedule or won’t do certain activities if they can’t also drink.

Things in atmosphere can color the light, but most likely they’re thinking about incandescent lighting on TV and at night.

Well nVidia just sells the hardware to the AI companies, so even if the bubble pops, they won’t go bankrupt.

Except all those companies are in an investor circle jerk with each other…

If AI bursts it doesn’t just hurt nvidia’s sales of products used by AI.

Nvidia has over $100 billion invested in OpenAI:

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/09/26/nvidias-investment-portfolio.html

And even more billions invested in other AI companies. Because the AI companies can’t afford to buy what Nvidia is selling at the price.

This means Nvidia “owns” a bunch of those AI companies, and can take loans out on the valuation…

If AI goes bankrupt, all those investments are worthless, which means banks call in the loans that used it as collateral. It could easily wipe out Nvidia.

It’s not just one surface level thing, even tho that’s all you seem to have thought of. You’re worried about a couple hundred million in sales like it’s not sitting next to 100 billion dollar loan.

Like bro, come on man…

The main purpose of the board is to oversee the Gaza ceasefire

No, this was just supposed to be a group who talked about the ceasefire…

Then trump has ballooned it into the current shit show and will likely never address Gaza thru it.

But like, you’re acting like “votes” matter, trump blatantly said he as “chairperson” isn’t boung by votes and can kick anyone out and keep their billion.

It’s like you still think they’re making a good faith effort for world peace…

The funny part is that there is a Muslim majority

Wait…

Do people really think trump hates Muslims and isn’t just trying to distract the masses so they don’t realize the only true war is a class war?

He close friends with a shit ton of far right Islamic extremist dictators.

It’s the far right extremist dictatorship part he cares about, literally nothing else. That’s why he’s cool with Israel, Russia, and India too.

None of those dictators really care about religion

They’re Stanzo’s, the smell means they’re quality…

They’re nice

So…

It’s not a bubble because…

“This is the largest infrastructure build-out in human history,” Huang said of active and promised data center projects. "And so the AI bubble is, comes about because the investments are large. And the investments are large, because we have to build the infrastructure necessary for all of the layers of AI above it."

It’s something we’re sinking money into soley because we’ve already been sinking money into it, and we don’t want anyone else to get ahead of us even though literally no one has found a way to monetize it enough to make back prior investments let alone new investments…

Like, he knows that’s literally the definition of an economic bubble, right?

Is he just trying to grift dumb rich investors, or does he legitimately not understand his company could go bankrupt literally at any moment if the investor class ever comes back to reality?

It’s just gonna be a bunch of dictator’s telling each other their invasions are totally cool…

No one should be surprised:

The map completely ignored historical ownership rights of the Palestinians who have lived in Gaza for generations, but it will also alarm those in the Israeli government who are seeking to displace the Palestinian population altogether and build Israeli settlements on Gaza. Kushner’s plan makes clear Gaza would be Palestinian run.

trump doesn’t want Israel to have the land, he wants to control it via a Palestinian puppet to do real estate grifts.

…

This has always been happening, and will continue to happen

It was a single rogue editor, someone noticed and reported it, and now all their changes have been undone.

as the entire article talks about emotional health and regulation.

No I read it…

They’re describing the effects of lead poisoning and the normal effects of aging…

Both of which cause a loss of critical thinking, a fall back on stereotypes from childhood, and aggressive belligerence in response to frequent confusion.

You could have asked more, or just googled it…

We really don’t need a word for:

Normal effects of aging compounded with lead poisoning

Because later generations are gonna experience aging too, and while we have nowhere near Boomer’s lead level, it’s still enough to effect us.

We’ve known about this shit for decades, if people would just learn about it instead of making up catchy buzzwords, we could actually try to mitigate it.
