- Moore’s Law is Dead pitches a pretty ingenious sku for the new gabecube aka steam machine. I fully support repairability and ewaste reduction. most of these components have not had MAJOR improvements in years, hence his channel name. There is a possibility here that Valve could ship with their unique hardware, (apu, psu, case, ports, networking) and let you bring your own ssd and ram from an old device that you might not use anymore. I love this idea. At the same time it feels like entering the star wars universe where there are no more new manufacturing and everything is cobbled together from old hardware made long ago.

I find it astonishing that they have something so ingrained into gaming culture as twitch, yet build something like Prime Gaming. Maybe I have no idea what Prime gaming is, but it feels like the opposite of ownership. What I get from steam is a sense of ownership. I own the desktop/laptop/handheld, no one cough nintendo cough cough cant remotely disable my device for using it inappropriately. I have a sense of trust with steam that as long as Gabe is alive I own what I paid for and will be able to open up and play anything at any time on any device I want. It might be a $100 dell workstation raised out of the coorporate refurb bin, it might be a high end machine, It could be my 2010 gateway or my 2045 custom build and they are all likely to play a good amount of my library at some level. I still understand that I really own nothing and the moment s...
