Generally speaking you're usually from 0 to 720 hours in a month: how many time in a year you have to remind people what month they are into vs. the single day?
Guy A: "Hey, what day is it?"
Guy B: "It's Sunday, the 13th."
Guy A: "Of...?" (gesturing to keep going)
Guy B: "Ah, right, we're just 390 hours into August. You may have missed that."
Driver for VGA/HDMI?
How much minimal that kernel is?
...it their money aren't already gone for a 999$ monitor stand.
SteamDeck buyers on the other side...
Same perks and disadvantages apply on all platforms Steam collect data from. My guess Valve do apply some weird AI algorithm to determine missing data. IE (just speculation) if there are Steam Decks that never go in Desktop Mode the algorithm pushes itself more widely in the array of the SDs that do.
One thing worth to remember, Valve always knows which binary executable connect to their server (and today very few use Steam's windows .exe through WINE), the survey is just them asking permission to eventually use your data: is not a commitment, they can fix/screw the statistical data anyway they see fit... I think mostly to fight those who cheat with the stats... Chinese language jumped few time over English (making English a secondary language on Steam) and Valve "fixed" those published data too!
You tell people to not use AI, and some may agree with you.
You tell companies to not use AI, they laugh at you and they keep make even big money thank to the added margin made by those poor fellow that aren't using AI... because they did listen to you.
AI is not something is gonna vanish, it's a tool... a whole new category of tools and instruments. Like the first electric musical instruments in times when the only way to have a sustained job in the music industry was to work in a orchestral band kept up by bigger institutions.
How many unplugged classical indie music artists do you know? Compare to the number of indie music artist that rely on electric musical instrument and beyond.
