It's not Windows performance, Cyberpunk 2077 for instance was quite more unstable for me on Arch and it took quite a bit of tweaking to be able to launch it (it's a miracle that I can even play Cyberpunk with a 970 in both cases :P). Generally though I've had a pretty good experience, most games play out of the box with good performance, and I get to daily drive Linux finally
The difference here is that it's not marketing intended to deceive and make money, it's just happy consumers that want to help the project and make it known.
Corporate marketing people though are paid to abuse psychological vulnerabilities of the target audience, over-exaggerate the pros of the software and hide the weaknesses under the carpet. I'm not saying that it's an inherently evil job or that they're not needed in a business, I'm just saying that as a developer I'm tired of software being a product and a business, when I simply want to create good software that solves some kind of problem and not be a cog in some corporate machine.
I know there are well meaning marketing people out there, but marketing departments, managers, investors, HR crap, and the rest of the corporate parade are exactly what most open source devs want to avoid by working in OSS projects
I thought that clicking on "Continue reading" would also send me to a sign up page as usual, so I just read it through the pop up margin while scrolling lol
That's the thing though, it's not a search engine.
It's a language prediction model, if you ask something that it has learned well and predicts correctly you'll get a nice answer that makes you feel like it's a search engine.
If you ask something more obscure or confuse it with words, you'll get back garbage that hopefully doesn't look like a right answer, because it's much better to have a useless answer than a deceiving bad one.
If a kid is truly over their head with a book, it won't be long until they get bored and quit, unless they're just trying to impress someone and aren't interested in the book itself.
Kids should be allowed to unlimited learning and curiosity, this spark you have as a child is very powerful if you let it happen and nurture it instead of trying to fit all students in an iron cast thinking that you know what's best for them.
I wouldn't say so, I'm not so much into buying lots of things and spending money, and I put thought behind my every purchase, but there are still quite a few purchases I've made because of ads.
I didn't regret them, but it shows that ads do work occasionally, or more often depending on the person.
I use a GTX 970, I can play most games just fine.
