Great game, but I won't really sign up for a gaming service that is controlled (in part) by Tencent. Don't get me wrong, Epic makes great stuff. The Unreal engine is amazing. You can argue Tim Sweeney is the CEO, but any meeting a

That land you describe has “semi-hidden” enclaves of some of the richest households in the entire country. There is a reason why it’s underdeveloped. They don’t want you living near them.

This is a super narrow pessimistic viewpoint that is rife with agenda pushing. We do not know if the wealthy years of the 20th century are over yet. Neo-feudalism is possible, but unlikely to be the same conditions as the middle-ages standa

So far in 2022 this has not been true. Compare the 1 year of VOO to inflation. USD inflation, no idea but like +8-12% depending on what you are trying to buy? VOO -20%. Ouch. Personally this year I have had better results holding cash than

Yeah if given a chance I would 100% opt out. Even if it was post tax dollars. I would rather manage my own future.

With how political Mozilla is I highly doubt they will make a non-toxic platform.

Ah yes, the propagandist take on things. I’ve seen more than a few videos of Chinese police robbing people/business right out in the open. Anybody that stands in their way gets brutalized. The CCP are so dishonest we have no idea what

Buy a Denon or similar receiver with Audussey dynamic volume. This adds a small amount of lag but is amazing for keeping dialogue clear and loud without having a sound like an explosion wake everyone up in the house. It’s a good deal better

This is not true at all. If anything they had to tighten their belts to compete with the price dumping Huawei and ZTE were engaging in.

I find it decently unlikely that anything serious happens to Bankman-Fried. There is a zero percent chance the people he helped funnel money into will see a whiff of an investigation. The level of corruption is too high in US finance and po

There needs to be a way to have 3rd party app stores on these platforms. Tired of the private platform argument. Google/Apple works hard to crush viable competition. It's time for laws to be written to step in and fix this.

The downside is that it makes it easier to consume beef fat that you might normally trim off a steak. Also the grinding process makes it easier to eat, which reduces chewing time which allows you to consume more calories before your brain g

Maybe for the engineers. The others might have a pretty hard time finding a job that pays as well. All the high paying places in the bay have a hiring freeze.

We are pretty early into the cycle to declare such a thing. The rate increases are likely not close to ending. It takes time for this stuff to unwind. Also note that we are in a similar situation as when Nixon propped up the economy before

Until you stop all activity and immediately compost your body, you are not serious about climate change. Increasingly escalating 'No true Scotsman'/appeal to purity arguments are sure fun! I say let's just assume people

How will they offset the emissions that are harmful, but not carbon, from the aluminum refining process most their products use and the diesel used to ship countless cargo containers of their products? Do they just pretend that the emission

Considering violence to protect your property is a fool's errand in CA. The people attempting to steal from you have a very low chance of going to jail. You resorting to violence to stop it has a very, very high chance of you getting s

Own enough homes in an area and you can control the market. The Econ 101 supply/demand theory does not work in the highly regulated (mostly to slow down building) housing market. People pay an irrational amount of income on rent all th

This is exactly it. After they hit whatever promo level that let’s them buy a home they usually stop trying to climb so hard unless they are really ambitious. If you want your partner to stay home and help raise the kids you probably have t

This is what happens when banks don’t need your deposits anymore. You are an annoyance to them. They don’t care if you pull your money out. They no longer need it. Things won’t be pretty once we go cashless.

Personally I hope this fails because of the disaster AGI would be for low/entry level jobs. The last thing the world needs is to give technocrats such power. I know it’s an interesting problem to solve but think of who will own that te

This is an extraordinary claim. Proof? Does not seem to match your previous post history. You mention not having a smart phone and then in previous posts it sounds like you do…
