You haven’t changed your mind on anything in 20 years?

I don’t see this resemblance at all. VR has peaked and plateaued at nothing more than a gimmick just like crypto. The hype around AI is because it was immediately useful from day 1 of a commercial product.

What kind of market share though? Creators aren't going to move to a platform whose viewership refuses to pay a subscription and doesn't watch ads.

You don't have to watch ads. You can pay for premium instead, which also gives you a Spotify equivalent.

Is it really a higher standard of living if you lack the amenities that make those places popular and as a result expensive?

If you have legal strategies for avoiding paying 6 figures in taxes ever year, I'm all ears.

>then you are intentionally under withholding What’s wrong with that? You can pay estimated quarterly taxes with a credit card too. Many churners do.

They’re not mutually exclusive. A W-2 employee has very few ways to reduce taxes and no amount of energy or effort will change that.

The credit card fee is around 1.9% (e.g. Pay1040), most credit cards will fall somewhere between 1-2% cash back which will make up for the fee alone without even considering the sign up bonus. Example: Chase Ink Unlimited[0] has a 75K point

Curious, does your medium-complexity tax return include investments?

It's not a huge leap to think that someone that abstains from such a crucial piece of social lubrication will be an outcast.

For what it's worth, I'm with you. Worst case is we somehow dwindle phone usage and it turns out that that wasn't the issue -- hardly a tragedy. Even if it doesn't affect mood/mental health, the time savings alone w

I find this comment chain extremely bizarre. One, that somehow getting step-by-step explanations to problems is "sleaze", but two, that you're all convinced that Chegg is only used to cheat. I used it throughout college to le

I'm waiting for the day that I read a headline about the EU producing a new and exciting product rather than regulating one.

Not including anti-theft devices that they include in other countries that mandate them is pretty anti-consumer. In this case, it's also extremely costly and dangerous unlike something like not saving website cookies.

Interestingly, isn't this exactly what happens when American tech companies get fined and/or are forced to implement certain regulations in Europe?

Have you seen modern video games? Take a look at The Last of Us Part II, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Red Dead Redemption 2, Hogwarts Legacy, Horizon Forbidden West, etc. The difference in fidelity, animations, audio, and just overall de

I agree police unions are awful and cause more harm than good. Everything you say is true (to some degree) but I don't think this qualifies the country to be a police state. I'm not afraid of the police coming to my door because

This is voluntary work for people who have been convicted. I agree they should be paid more though.

Google can only make money off of it if people use it and people will only use it if it's good so the immediate sentiment is that it's pretty good. Feel free to short Google, you can make a lot of money if you're right.

I looked up "police state" and got this: >a totalitarian state controlled by a political police force that secretly supervises the citizens' activities Can you explain how the US is all of those things?

While S&P500 trended downwards, Google’s stock price is up 9% since PaLM 2 first leaked this week so the market does not agree with your assessment of the tech.

As a paying customer, your data is not used to improved the product per the terms of service which is the goal here.

Zelda looks extremely close to this with a different art style. 15 year old game for sure, on par with God of War 2/3.

No, I'll keep matching the energy I see here. This place isn't as sophisticated as you think it is.
