"comparing the PC market to an xbox is deceptive at best and a lie at worst."

No its not you idiot because its using AMD chips, aka modern xbox's are PC's they are using PC components go look here at wikipedia dumbass.

Go look at the specs in the sidebar, it's using AMD chips buddy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Dude you clearly are unaware you've been under attack since ultima online in 1997, from 1970 to 2000, 99% of the programs you bought for your PC were dos 16/win16/win32 plaintext executables, aka you didn't have to worry about microsoft or every software company on the planet stealing your software.

Listen carefully to the video on xbox one security summit, in the 90's you had ROOT access to every device on your PC, Intel, microsoft, amd amd and a bunch of other companies joined together to kill the plaintext assembly microprocessor because they knew General CPU's enable piracy by default, aka they had to find someway to kill the public access to binary plaintext, you can stop piracy if you can prevent files from revealing their plaintext assembly to the user. The whole project was to remove your ability to own your device and take over the IO of every chip inside your motherboard.

See her with riot gameS:

https://arstechnica.com/gaming...

Under TPM riot can prevent things like maphacking because the data sitting inside your ram has been encrpyed with keys you can't access, it can also prevent you from disabling their anti cheat or modifying binary plaintext in memory, that was the WHOLE purpose of why microsoft, intel and other companies got together in the late 90's was to kill piracy forever by building copyright enforcement at the hardware level.

"Consequently, to reliably enforce typical DRM policies, it
must not be possible for the platform user to access the
plaintext bits that represent the content"

The whole last 26+ years since 1999 was to kill you having root access to hardware plaintext assembly instructions, aka if you don't have that access you don't own your PC because they control what files you can open or close or what memory addresses you can read or right. Upcoming CPU's "Security" are really anti-piracy tech so you can't disable DRM and malware like you could with windows XP (when we still had root plaintext access to all the devices).

https://web2.qatar.cmu.edu/cs/...

Because software is licensed not owned an because every executable can be divided into two sub exes' and run over a network, that means when the internet came online game companies and software companies could start stealing files out of their local applications and hold them hostage inside racks of servers in their office and sell them back to you as some new kind of product, aka you will lose control of all the apps on your PC.

You don't seem to have any awareness the battle was one and lost in 1997, two or more computers networked together become a single computer, aka microsoft had to wait for internet penetration to reach everyone before they converted their OS as local application (windows 3.1 to windows 8) to a client-server OS (windows 10).

IF you buy any application requiring a user name or login account, you've told microsoft, intel, amd and the entire industry you are a moron at pc's.

They've been stealing PC games and other applications on an industrial scale since the rise of the internet in the mid 90's because you clearly don't grasp the evils of network computing and the fact when you network pc's under american copyright law, they can legally convert all your apps to client-server executables and hold your PC hostage, why bother owning a PC at this point? AKA steam, mmos, all those were attacks on local applications over the last 23+ years buddy. So it's not that I'm paranoid it's that was the whole point to kill piracy because your Intel pentium 2 and pentium 3 in the 90's was yours, new microchips will have something like pluton inside them, see here:

https://gabrielsieben.tech/202...

You don't seem to grasp that in an internet enabled society. Microsoft can conver their apps and os to client-server apps and you no longer own your $2000 computer, aka a client-server app means they are stealing your apps. But that is lost on you, aka mmos, steam were them just stealing and pirating from you and you never noticed.

They are killing your ownership of the device, for the last 26+ Years there's been a war on plaintext binary executables, the entire started attacking local applications as soon as the internet was a thing in 1997, aka ultima online, lineage, everquest. Then we got steam in 2003.

You have to understand from 1970 to roughly 2000, every micorchip inside your PC spoke plaintext assembly instructions, aka you had root access to every device on the planet, in order to kill piracy microsoft and chip companies formed the trusted computing initative in 1999 to research a way to change cpu's so that you couldn't pirate software at all, and this has been a 20 years research project that they've been working on for 20+ years and it's finally coming to fruition.

They are locking down the PC, this has been a 20 year project to kill piracy and turn the comuputer into a locked down device like a console see here:

https://youtu.be/U7VwtOrwceo?t...

Secure boot wasn't about "protecting your PC" from malware it was about putting hardcore antipiracy tech in your PC and turning your pc into a locked down device like the iphone and console so you never see plaintext binary - the thing that enabled mass piracy of windows os, apps and games. Microsoft founded the trusted computing intiative with Intel, AMD and other companies to re-engineer and take over every microchip in every device on the planet, that's why shit like your mice and sd cards need "certificates" if they want to be used with the xbox console.

The whole thing was to move us to encrypted computing.

See the patent abstract here:

"A digital rights management operating system protects rights-managed data, such as downloaded content, from access by untrusted programs while the data is loaded into memory or on a page file as a result of the execution of a trusted application that accesses the memory. To protect the rights-managed data resident in memory, the digital rights management operating system refuses to load an untrusted program into memory while the trusted application is executing or removes the data from memory before loading the untrusted program. If the untrusted program executes at the operating system level, such as a debugger, the digital rights management operating system renounces a trusted identity created for it by the computer processor when the computer was booted. To protect the rights-managed data on the page file, the digital rights management operating system prohibits raw access to the page file, or erases the data from the page file before allowing such access. Alternatively, the digital rights management operating system can encrypt the rights-managed data prior to writing it to the page file. The digital rights management operating system also limits the functions the user can perform on the rights-managed data and the trusted application, and can provide a trusted clock used in place of the standard computer clock."

https://cryptome.org/ms-drm-os...

That is why you have secure boot and the TPM requirement for windows 11, they are phasing out plaintext compiled binaries over the next 20 years, so I hope you enjoy your locked down OS. Game developers and everyone in the industry was hell bent on killing honest plaintext binaries to kill piracy they didn't give up, they've already had it in the bag in 1997 when you all took up client-server exe's like MMOS and steam, Microsoft was jealous of Richard garriot and Gabe newell.

Microsoft's UWP has been cut up into multiple parts to convince developers to sign and encrypt their binaries over the next 20 years they are phasing out binary plaintext access to your device.

Those who "labored" used their winnings to lobby to bend the government to their favor and undo the original intent of copyright (aka to preserve culture and spread knowledge). Modern corporations do neither of those things. They have renegged on the public domain big time over the past 200 years. Just look at these give aways to publishers over the last 2 centuries.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Copyright is a publically granted monopoly and as members of the public we can rescind it by disobeying when government is corrupt and copyright is no longer being use for its intended purpose.

There's no point in speaking for someone who wants to pay more money and get less games, as a consumer idiot, if you are paying for a videogame then its in your own natural interest to pay less money and get more game and own the game. You're a moron at being a consumer.

"However, your diatribe against MMO"

Not a diatribe, here it from the ultima online devs themselves, EA and the ENTIRE INDUSTRY WOKE UP to the fact they could now make every game a client-server app, aka EA was expecting to give us ultima 10/11/12 with dedicated servers and level editors to be parity with quake and descent and warcraft 2 at the time and ultima online blew all that up and publishers worldwide went over their RPG's they had in development that would have had dedicated servers and level editors like quake, and rejiggered their networking code to turn it into a client-server app and slapped mmo sticker on the box, they got anti-piracy and got to trasnfer the ownership of the game to themselves, you idiots gave birth to steam and microtransactions, you don't in an internet enabled society where software is LICENSED not owned you will lose control of your entire software library because the average person is computer illiterate and is unaware of the evils of mainframe computing. That's why modern PC gaming is a fucking dystopian hellscape of Steam and Origin, Steam in 2003 was a reaction to the success of ultima online, lineage and everquest in 1999. Once they realized you'd buy client-server apps they simply converted the pc games in development that could be successfuly and easily back ended and just slapped mmo on the box, you clearly don't grasp how the game industry works or is funded.

https://youtu.be/lnnsDi7Sxq0?t...

So yes the UO killed local application ultima 10/11/12 that would have had those standard pc game features, you exchanged games like quake 3, warcraft 3, diablo 1+2 (local applications PC games) for client-server apps.

So yes mmos did kill PC games as local applications, they even admit so as publishers woke up to the fact they didn't have to give us infinitely piratable quake 2 with limitless multiplayer and modding anymore you dipshit, anyone who saw planetsize or anarchy online or guild wars 1, knew they just quickly commented out dedicated servers and rejiggered the networking back end to prevent piracy now that you idiots were here.

We had to watch as our hardcore games were converted to client-server mmo crapware and you were unaware they were just using you to kill piracy and kill off local applications because the entire industry was desperate to kill piracy.

Dude go listen to ultima onlines post mortem, MMO's DID kill the traditional PC game with dedicated servers and level editors, note that as soon as ultima online became a success that was the final death of ultima as a local application, everyone at the time was expecting ultima 9/10/11 to eventually get what quake, descent had - aka the ability to host your own multiplayer games with friends, mmos were just a rebranding I'm sorry to tell you, you were fooled, yes "Muds" existed in the 90's but you're not getting EVERY single program in existence can be convert from and to a client-server application and back, the whole point was to convert ALL PC games into client-server applications to defeat piracy (aka its difficult to pirate a game who's functionality has been carved back on a remote comptuer and is held hostage). You bought the bullshit narrative of garriot and verent, you didn't realize they knew what effect it would have on the entire industry - aka for every ultima online, lineage and everquest you bought, you killed its local application counterpart. AKA you killed a quake 3, a descent 2 a warcraft 3.

ONLINE DRM and mmos are the same thing - the whole thing was to convert all games to client-server apps requiring online connects to defeat piracy. Anyone with a clue knew that, the fact you kids in the mmo community didn't get the message.

This is a patent for Trusted computing (aka to kill the binary plaintext)

See here they are backporting this to future intel and amd cpu's

https://youtu.be/U7VwtOrwceo?t...

The game industry has been stealing PC games since 1997, beginning with ultima online. When you network two or more computers together they become a single computer, so because software is licensed, you can start stealing files out of computer games, operating systems and applications and holding them hostage on the other side of the internet.

It's called the mainframe model of computing, so when everyone got modens in the mid 90's game companies started rebranding their PC games "MMO's" in order to confuse the stupid and lay gaming public.

Quake 2 was the other limitless multiplayer game, see john carmacks comments here:

... UFO's are just propagandistic distractions for the public. They are there to draw attention away from other things, there whole purpose is just to redirect public attention away from more important matters. It's basically infotainment 'psy ops', I'm sure they are just doing research into how gullible people are and how bad we are at reasoning.

You don't seem that the entire industry is killing you owning your hardware, aka they are killing plaintext microcontrollers.

Nope, they are locking down the PC, this has been a 20 year project to kill piracy and turn the comuputer into a locked down device like a console see here:

Correct, it would be nice if people were actually well read into the history of war and mankind, the leaders of all states are obsessed with keeping tabs on everyone and everything. The world is at war even when it doesn't look like it is at war.

We should assume our computers are backdoored.

Everything LLM's do is based on refined human thought, aka they read what the smartest people have written on the internet and store answers to a wrote list of combinatoric prompts that make it appear intelligent, no reasoning is happening, they are digesting patterns in our text in the internet and recombining them in a way that appears intelligent. In no way is chat GPT or LLM's in anyway intelligent. They are just more sophisticated search engines with combinatoric powers to respond to more complex prompts

Man this is so much bullshit, transistors and the cells inside your body are completely different systems, I hate the term AI, because transistors inside racks of servers training LLM did not evolve to eat other organisms over millions of years, a human being or an animal, is a collection, a society of billions of different organisms that have co-evolved for billions of years.

Human traits that have survived is because we've inherited them from the past, AI has no limbic system or feelings, it's just a unconscious p-zombie. I wish people would stop equaling animal intelligence to transistors, they are not in anyway the same.

LLM's have no self awareness, they are unconscious p-zombies, human intelligence is fully integrated into every aspect of your body, your brain and gut is constantly communicating with one another, there are networks of organisms that are signalling each other about food and oxygen transport, a whole array of functions we are 99% oblivious to keep our "intelligence" from falling apart (aka try going without sleep).

So no I wish we'd stop calling computational models AI, just because we can copy some subset or mimic some of our abilities does not in anyway mean they are equivalent to an animal model of intelligence, which needed to fight off threats in order to mate and eat.
