So your definition for "desktop" is if it's an x86 compatible architecture? Seems pretty random to me. Btw, there are x86 android device. IMO a desktop is something on the top of a desk to do typical "office work". PCs, Macs, Laptops, etc. but calling a SteamDeck game console "Desktop" is pretty dishonest I think.

I'm not sure that's really a good argument. I can connect an android smartphone to a monitor, keyboard and mouse and call it Desktop. It's also just an arm64 or x64 based PC just handheld.
A Desktop PC IMHO is a device that is used for everyday "office" work and neither android smartphones nor steamdecks are that - but laptops for example are (IMHO)
But that's not really a Desktop is it? If we'd count mobile device we'd also have to include Android and then the situation would look completely different.
I think they did that in castles, because it's generally pretty hard to build castles. If the enemy is inside the walls you are practically done anyway.
Sounds like an urban legend. Who do you mean anyway? James Couzens? Harry Bennett? Charles Sorensen? His son Edsel? They all died of natural causes.

Not if you payed for an "apple" but got compost. But of that's your thing you could try to eat it 🤣
First time I read about it and even more surprised that for 38,000$ they don't even talk details. They talk about videos, audio, photos, etc. but how much storage space?
Update: Ok looks like it's based on the business/creator plan ... so 50GB. There isn't even a bulk discount because the creator plan is 25$/month, so just 30,000$ per 100 years 🤔 The entire "deal" is just nuts.
The same is true for your brain. Show me the neurons that are fluent in Chinese. Of course the LLM is just executing code. And if we have AGI it will also just be "executing code" but so does your brain. It's not exactly code (but maye AGI will be analog computers, so not exactly code either) but the laws of physics dictate what your brain does. The laws of physics don't understand Chinese, the atoms and molecules don't understand Chinese. "Understanding Chinese" is an emergent property.
Think about it that way: Assume every person you know (execpt you) is just some form of Chinese Room ... You first of all couldn't prove that and second it wouldn't matter at all.
Your brain is also "just a Chinese room". It's just physic, chemistry and biology. There is no magic inside your brain. If a "Chinese room" is fast enough and can fool everyone into "believing" that it's fluent in chinese, than the room speaks chinese.
Quite the contrary. I have a red-green deficiency (and so do about 6% of men). Viridis Color scale is pretty nice but two much colors are hard to read for a lot of people
I could install a full fat kde on the entertainment system of a car - still wouldn't call it a desktop PC.
