Tariffs aren't applied to PCs.

It's 43% of 60% of US kids. So more like 25%. Still pretty bad.

Some privacy browsers will randomize your fingerprint

That depends on whether your browser exposes them, and if/how they affect your fingerprint. If you go to deviceinfo.me it will show you what your browser is exposing.

Router level VPN at home becomes your "This is me" location

You and a thousand other people.

By the "who made it" comment, I know there's no reasoning

LOL no you don't.

The same amount of energy is used, which means heat, as any other device with the same hardware

There is no other device with the same hardware. You know there isn't. I don't understand why you're making this up.

There's nothing here that could change the physics. Valve does not employ wizards.

No wizards required, just some smart engineers and novel design.

It's not possible because the people who have the power to make that happen would never let it happen. I don't care who they are.

That's what federation is for.

We don't know how quite this will be!

You can tell by looking at the design, and by who made it.

there are fanless PCs that you can get. As powerful? No

Please go back and read my first comment on this thread. I said quiet, powerful, and compact. All 3.

I see you didn't address the other points I made

I did. Several times.

the firmware is modified. It doesn't have some "special processor" or anything.

The firmware is not part of the processor. Every processor has custom firmware.

It being small only means the heat has less room to be removed

Being custom allows it to be both small and quiet. Find me another PC in this size, with this much power, that's as quiet. You can't.

because it's made by Valve I guess, and they need to be worshiped?

I've already stated why several times. Now you're just being disingenuous.
