the Trump regime can use Claude to decide which schoolchildren to bomb

Not true in the slightest. Trump can't use Claude to decide which schoolchildren he can bomb.

He can use ChatGPT to decide which schoolchildren he can bomb.

(Anthropic was taken out back for saying they only wanted to identify which schoolchildren are there and not tell them which ones to bomb.)

This contradicts, unsurprisingly, Trump telling Anthropic to go fuck itself and the subsequent deal with OpenAI.

In any case, my comment was being made in jest because Trump's admin is no stranger to violating policies, procedures, laws, and human rights.

Oh no, Trump and Friends have been some of the most consistent people I have ever seen. Consistently awful and against all normal people maybe, but consistent

They suggested no such thing. "First half of the year" is still part of "this year"...

They literally just referred back to their previous post about the timeline.

We shared recently that there have been challenges with memory and storage shortages, but we will be shipping all three products this year. More updates will be shared as we finalize our plans.

This is just malicious clickbait.

[–] Eggyhead@lemmings.world 6 points 5 months ago (1 child)

Just to be fair, “Our goal of shipping all three products in the first half of the year has not changed” clearly states a goal and not a promise.

What does that have to do with this conversation?

parent

[–] Eggyhead@lemmings.world 1 point 5 months ago* (1 child)

OP opined that the wait might be longer, which isn’t false.

Furthermore, “We hope to ship in 2026, but…” specifically references 2026, and not the first half, which as I pointed out had only been referenced as their goal.

The first half of this year is still 2026, sure, but 2026 isn’t just the first half of this year. 2026 by itself is a whole year.

Do you see what this has to do with the conversation?

No they didn't. They said Valve suggested it would be longer, which did not happen.

The first half of this year is still 2026, sure, but 2026 isn’t just the first half of this year. 2026 by itself is a whole year.

...and? You're reaching here. That is in no way any sort of suggestion.

Do you see what this has to do with the conversation?

No. No one said anything about a "promise", at any time. Not me, not the author, and not Valve. Only you.

Either OP edited their post or you should go back and read it again. They just said the wait might be longer. They didn’t say valve said anything.

There’s no reaching. A car is a vehicle, but not all vehicles are cars. When someone says 2026, it is a year. There is zero implication of one half or the other. I think the omission of indicating the first half could be a slip up, but is worth noting. It could be interpreted as a suggestion.

I bring up promise because people tend to freak out when things get delayed, as if it were a promise. I mean to imply that we should expect a delay, and be pleasantly surprised if it launches any earlier.

Does this make sense?

Its literally the title of the article...

Yes, that's exactly my point.

@Ulrich Per other discussions on this, that's because that part was edited later. Polygon's quote from yesterday's blog was correct at the time, but is outdated now. (And they should update their article accordingly.)

Addressing the trio of new hardware releases planned for this year, Valve said, "We hope to ship in 2026, but as we shared recently, memory and storage shortages have created challenges for us. We’ll share updates publicly when we finalize our plans!"

The quote that I provided was directly from the Polygon article. Do you mean to suggest it was only clickbait shitfuckery when the article was first posted?

Even then, I would argue that that STILL does not "suggest further delays".

parent

[–] chamomile@furry.engineer 0 points 5 months ago (1 child)

@Ulrich Which quote, the "first half of this year" one? Yeah, that was a post in February. A few weeks later, Valve posts a new blog saying "we hope to ship in 2026" which absolutely suggests that NOT shipping in 2026 is also a possibility. That's the quote everyone reported on, which was later revised to say "we will be shipping all three products this year." This is all a ton of noise and speculation based on a single line that ended up being a misphrasing but it wasn't wrong based on the information at the time.

FYI you don't have to tag me, I got a notification when you reply to me.

Which quote

The one from Valve in the Polygon article.

it wasn't wrong based on the information at the time.

It was. There was, at no time, any suggestion by Valve that the release was being delayed further, and especially not at the time the article was published.

@Ulrich I'm posting from Mastodon; that's just how clients default to handling replies.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 1 point 5 months ago

I know. And it's dumb. Which is why I don't use it. And Mastodon is polluting the Fediverse with this crap.

I was kinda wondering given how bad the timing was. I think when it was announced there was already some pressure on the supply chain and its just went to trump since then.

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 7 points 5 months ago (1 child)

Is that the new saying? Just replaced the word shit with Trump wherever you can?

I can get behind that Trump.

Wait, no it only works if shit has a negative connotation. The economy has Trumped the bed.

parent

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 4 points 5 months ago*

I do it regardless of if its a good or bad connotation as its about the word for me. Its not a thing except by me as far as I know but I start doing trump like this all the time.
