Great, can we now abort this asinine “AI” bullshit and go back to normal GPU prices?

I know, I just can’t do anything about it. Would you please pass the butter?

Yeah, hard to tell from this angle, but I think it’s shifted a bit upwards.

Where was this rigorous audit for SpaceX?

Edibles are my preferred way. Smoking gives me that dry throat bullshit and I don’t like that.

That would constitute the offense of stalking, I’m afraid.

That would be called a price anchor and it’s sole purpose is to exploit the decoy effect.

In short: by offering this obviously overpriced bullshit boat, they create the illusion of value in boats in general. Then the $20 boat seems like a reasonable “investment”. Common dark pattern.

Drei?

Many people hate it, even the AI bros reconsider when it starts affecting them.

However, corporations need to keep the bubble from bursting or profits will shrink. Thus, nothing is gonna change.

Give Trump some credit. He ended the war he started with Iran at least 15 times by now.

awesome, then we can remove all the ads, no? because bots don’t purchase things, no?

I think it’s more like Dumb People 101, but the Venn diagram shows significant overlap in this case.

Both sides are bad, but one side is considerably less bad and is not openly racist and fascist.

Realistically, what are your options? Protesting and being pepper sprayed, locked-up and fired from your job. That does not make their suffering any more endurable and it certainly won’t end it.

In my book, your behavior is morally at least neutral.

In Germany, we call it “Vitamin B” (B for Beziehungen which means relationships/contacts).

I don’t even know my passwords. Much easier than remembering a good password is to just not having to remember it.

Dangerous to profits. Please think of the shareholders!

There’s also the point that game quality has gone down significantly. If I were to build a new rig which would cost me an arm and a leg, I would still just play games that my current PC can already run anyway. I don’t wanna play the newest CoD-slop or some tech-demo with MTX-shop disguised as a game. The newest games I really enjoyed were Monster Sanctuary (Unity-based monster collector metroidvania-like) and Balatro (no introduction necessary). A toaster can run these.

My “gaming rig” (more like toaster - it’s not good and I am a poor loser) still runs Win7. Last defensible Windows version.

I am a staunch believer in the DB’s incompetence. I assure you that they don’t require any outside help in order to fuck up everything.
