You forget all the media stories on the early 2000's about SUV's doing things, like they didn't have a driver.
Re:An hour of audio transcribed in about 13s on MacBook Air

With MacWhisper you can select the Apple models, it took almost 4x as long to transcribe the same file versus this software and MacWhisper/Parakeet3.

I tested a 33 minute local audio only file on a M4 Mac Mini with 24GB of Ram and it took 6.75 seconds to transcribe it using this software. Using MacWhisper/Parakeet3 it was about 7.5 secs using a stopwatch.

Can a Chromebook even last 10 years? Aren’t they made from cheaper materials to get the cheaper price points?

For reference to the current prices of consoles:
Nintendo Switch 2 $449.99
Xbox Series S (512GB/1TB) $379.99 – $449.99
Xbox Series X (1TB) $649.99
PlayStation 5 Slim (Digital) $599.99
PlayStation 5 Slim (Disc) $649.99
PlayStation 5 Pro $899.99
From reading posts on X/Twitter, I got the feeling that PC Gaming enthusiasts truly believed this was going to compete with console gaming and those players would flock to the utopia that is Steam OS and managing hardware. At this price I believe its way too expensive to temp console gamers and Steam supporters will probably balk about the specs to price ratio.

Because using AI in a product description is a signal to venture capital if private and investors if public, that your stock price deserves to go up.

Well, we don't have any information on cost, battery life or performance yet, which all matter. Could very well run laps around the M series at half the battery life and twice the cost.

Re:NeoGeo AES+: SNK announces reissue of retro console without emulation

Correct, but Incredible Universe had one on display for a very long time in the video games department and you could play World Heroes and other games for free! There would be a line of kids waiting to take a turn at World Heroes and I remember my friend and I playing the frisbee game. No need to goto the arcade when you could play these games for free.

Just a shout out to Incredible Universe that was stupid/smart (you pick) for putting a Neo Geo on display to allow us to play arcade quality games for free. There would be a small line inside the Video Games sections of kids queueing up to play World Heroes.Fun memories.

I find it comical that the Switch was completely ignored, which just means to me that Nintendo finally won the console wars while the other two fight for second place. VGCharts has this for lifetime sales for the current consoles in the USA.
Switch 1 (57,530,683) PlayStation 5 - (33,012,035) Xbox Series X|S - (20,764,129) Switch 2 -(4,243,125)
