Desktop is a form factor not “software” and there are microwaves and refrigerators with “PC hardware” (in quotes, because it’s actually a pretty ill-defined term), but they still are not “Desktops” even is you install Fedora on your fridge.

The names are pretty clear and are about form factor. Desktop is something on top of a desk. Laptop is something on top of your lap. Hand-held is something you hold in your hand.

The steam deck is a hand-held game console - doesn’t matter what OS is it uses. It’s true that most stat tracking sites count it as “desktop” but not because it’s a desktop computer but because the user agent looks similar to desktop user agents.

If I install Android on a tower PC it doesn’t randomly become a smartphone even though all browser trackers would register it as a smartphone.

And Valve using a “typical desktop OS” on their handheld console doesn’t magically turn it into a desktop PC.

I could install a full fat kde on the entertainment system of a car - still wouldn’t call it a desktop PC.

So your definition for “desktop” is if it’s an x86 compatible architecture? Seems pretty random to me. Btw, there are x86 android device. IMO a desktop is something on the top of a desk to do typical “office work”. PCs, Macs, Laptops, etc. but calling a SteamDeck game console “Desktop” is pretty dishonest I think.

I’m not sure that’s really a good argument. I can connect an android smartphone to a monitor, keyboard and mouse and call it Desktop. It’s also just an arm64 or x64 based PC just handheld.

A Desktop PC IMHO is a device that is used for everyday “office” work and neither android smartphones nor steamdecks are that - but laptops for example are (IMHO)

But that’s not really a Desktop is it? If we’d count mobile device we’d also have to include Android and then the situation would look completely different.

It depends what you mean by useful. Most humans are (at least at the moment) more versatile than even the most advanced AI we have. But you have to keep in mind that there are jobs with pretty mundane tasks where you don’t really need the intelligence and versatility of a human.

True, but It’s still not what I meant unless they kill those humans. The employees that did that work before still need the 100W. It might be that they can now do something else (or just be unemployed) but the net energy usage is not going down.

The problem is that using those tools no matter how energy efficient will add to the total amount of energy humans use, because even if an AI generates an image faster than a human could, the human still needs 100W constantly.

This doesn’t mean, that we shouldn’t make it more efficient but let’s be honest, more energy efficient AI just means that we would use even more AI everywhere.

No shit Sherlock

FYI: “to add” with two “d” comes from “addition” and “ad” with one “d” is for advertisment, the plural is “ads” with a single “d”.

I had the exact same idea, so the detective is probably looking there as well.

Who cares. Just say it’s inside the home and enjoy your pay day 🤣

There is a leading space in the string itself, so OP is either a top tier troll or put in no effort at at and either way deserves the hate 😄

Capitalism in a nutshell.

That Kagi works and that Kagi doesn’t write their own database engine and host the project on a laptop 🤣

They won’t open source it because the rust code is very likely a joke. They are proud of just using two dependencies, don’t know that their “statically generated” stuff is actually called server side rendering and are hosting this stuff on a fuckin laptop.

It’s probably a project that will teach them a lot. But in practice their implementation is worthless to everybody else because they are obviously completely inexperienced.

That said, that project is likely not worthless to them because they will probably learn a ton of stuff why it’s hard to build a search engine.
