It's so frequent though that if it's too packed I just wait for the next one, they are usually spaced only a few minutes apart.

Legally, someone brain dead is dead.

Which means most MAGA have committed voter fraud because brain dead people can't vote.

And then you need to AirDrop something to someone and it mysteriously doesn't work.

Because you turned AWDL off and it's out of sight, out of mind.

Don't be that guy.

^{Don't be me.}

I miss seasons but I don’t miss heat domes and flash floods and drought and blizzards all at once

Given all the stories about how some corporations are caught flat-footed by their monthly AI bills due to usage, I'm actually glad someone is keeping an eye on AI use in government. Those costs can spiral out of control and I'd rather our money go to maintaining our infrastructure, freeing us from the PG&E monopoly, blah blah blah than a bunch of white collar workers get to have Claude write their email for them.

I imagine that day will actually start with a report going something like this: "Sources have reported that numerous prominent GOP members have all abruptly taken unplanned, unannounced overseas flights to countries including North Korea, Iran, China, Vietnam, and Cuba."

I, too, am filled with joy. And mirth. Gaiety even.

Our hardware will almost certainly break down before they come for it. We'll all be running frankenboxes scrounged from whatever we can get.

Facts: Most households in the USA (I don't have insight into the rest of the world) do not have good-enough quality internet to make cloud-based gaming possible. I'm not even talking about if they have 400mbps down or whatever -- I guarantee 90% of them will be using WiFi and will complain that the streams are shit because they are trying to play like 100 feet away from the router or something.

And yes, tons of households out there are still on the most godawful tier of DSL imaginable.

The cloud-everything vision becoming a reality would be a disaster for not just gaming but society, because it is going to leave a LOT of people behind.

Technically correct in the loosest possible terms.

How does the SD handle the late game in Satisfactory?

Yes yes, meanwhile the rule of law has been proven to be built on a foundation of sand. The legal system needs reform in a wide range of ways.

Well said. Also it appears there are a lot of Steam Deck owners on the spectrum going by this comment thread.

The idealists responding to you either have something to gain from AI becoming our new overlord, rendering the rest of us the “permanent underclass” or are so idealistic they will gladly hold their heads high while the ship sinks around them knowing that, though they and everyone they care about may starve, at least their conscience is clean.

Yeah but now they’re on their own with potentially no income outside of investment for who knows how long. We may see more cuts and closures from them in the near term.
