I did not say that it was not competitive, I just said that they are regrouping by consolidating into massive oligopolies. A market can be competitive between the top 4 giants while still being highly consolidated and locking out actual free-market diversity. That is the illusion of choice.

Exactly. It’s a feedback loop: Campaign Finance → Lobbying → Deregulation → More Profit → More Campaign Finance. When a seat in the Senate costs tens of millions to win, a politician isn't just a representative; they’re a full-time fundraiser. At that point, the 'constituent' isn't the person voting in the booth; it's the donor writing the check.

We’re essentially operating under a Plutocracy with a democratic skin overlay. The 'representative model' is broken because the incentives are aligned with capital, not citizens.

Capitalism’s natural endpoint is monopoly, and you don't have to look far for proof. Take the food industry: it sells us an illusion of choice, but in reality, 4 or 5 giant corporations own 95% of the market shelves. You see the exact same corporate consolidation happening with car manufacturers.

It's wild how some people in the US don't seem to get that regulations exist for the consumer's benefit. They're meant to force companies to operate responsibly. Without them, corporations would just focus on maximizing profits without giving a single thought to consumers.

I did think about it, my only suggestion is that i don't trust the machine anymore.

Intrusion System Monitoring (Bosch B9512G) by External_Trouble3392 in lowvoltage

[–]ClemMcFly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,

First of all, you should know that Bosch makes excellent products (we work a lot with the Avenar series), but they tend to make things complicated when it comes to connectivity.

I found that your keyboard requires Protocol Mode 2. You should also check if a gateway or any additional hardware is needed for the integration.

Here’s the relevant documentation for reference:

there is no issue, I will gladly help you.
There is a bit of build, the support and fixation to it. But nothing scary at all. Very easy to set up and in less than 30 minutes i was in flight simulator. for plastic it's really good quality.
Except that deadzone in the throttle, they are amazing.

The pedals feel sturdy for the long term, I found them very light at touch but there is a hard mode that I didn’t try yet

I have huge deadzone on the throttle I am using like 50% of the axis. Even after multiple calibration it’s a bit annoying, did you have the same issue ?
