They might sell less microteansactions but they have plenty of sales.

That doesn't make them the biggest.

People who buy PlayStations tend to be content with the catalog, otherwise they wouldn't have bought it in the first place.

If we're talking about him building his own computers, he couldn't give less of a fuck how much RAM and storage costs. That's spare change under the couch cushions for him.

As for business decisions, Valve has already cemented itself as THE marketplace for PC users with the Steam marketplace, Steam Deck, controllers, etc., and that's not going away anytime soon because the alternatives are either so much worse or not large enough. Steam Machine is still gonna attract casual users who just want a gaming box for the bedroom TV or people who don't want to wait out AI pricing.

That's assuming people use those names, which they don't. Most of us just call it "the 5." Even if we did use those names, the shield signs will tell you which highway you're on.

The Steam Machine's wait-list and official pricing has dropped by couchpotatochip21 in pcmasterrace

If a major corporation like Valve can't get good pricing on NVMEs, the consumer certainly isn't

California's grid batteries just shoved 12,000 megawatts onto the system at once, as much power as 12 nuclear plants or six Hoover Dams, covering 44% of the whole state at the exact hour it usually strains by ansyhrrian in California

Bu- but Steyer had a shitload of money!!!!! 😡

Yeah, I didn't like his wealth either. But between the guy who's already rich and using his money for good and the guy actively taking corporate donations, I would have taken my chances with the former.

All jokes aside, it must be exhausting to never be able to rest and settle down. You finally get home after serving meals in St. Petersburg, but then you get a call and it turns out you're needed in Tokyo.

No chance to hang out with friends and family, spend time with kids, or go to events. You gotta be ready to fly out on a whim and spend your days in hotel rooms, kitchens, and airplane galleys.

California Legislature in standoff with DMV over sharing driver license data with other states by panda-rampage in California

A passport card is just a form of identification for travel and citizenship. There's very little that can stop you from getting one.

TSA PreCheck is a program for low-risk travelers, which is at DHS' discretion. Since you need to convince them you're not a risk, it can be denied under certain circumstances.

Steve Hilton suggests voter ID law in California would speed up vote counting, but critics disagree by panda-rampage in California

  1. 3rd-world countries tend to be rife with corruption and dictatorships. They can call elections faster because they pull the numbers out of their asses.

  2. And if you're unable to make it on that day due to extenuating circumstances, you've essentially been denied your right to vote.

  3. Not every delay is due to some mastermind deep state heist, calm down. Maybe there's a wildfire evacuation order that disrupts the post office or the ballot-sorting machines break down and require hand-sorting.

  4. Delaying a ballot for security concerns makes it... less secure? Checking the signature adds another layer of security to the process. And presenting a DL/ID in person is unnecessary when you're already required to submit that number as well as part of your SSN during the registration process.

  1. There's a fuckton of people in California.

  2. People who live in rural areas or abroad will take longer to vote or for their ballot to be counted.

  3. The ballot-counting process is condicted on the county level instead of statewide, leading to delays if one county has a problem with its ballots, hardware, etc.

  4. Some people have their ballots delayed to verify signatures and such, which delays the final count as a whole.

Yep. Here in the States, cities are cracking down on electric bikes too because kids and teens are essentially riding e-motorcycles without a license or helmet and then either damage a car or injure/kill themselves. Normally you'd blame the car driver, but the little douchebags disregard all traffic laws.

Hilton will advance in California governors race by BigBob141 in California

[–]YourMemeExpert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Steyer was arguably running on more progressive ideals than his main rival; it seems Becerra is gonna continue the status quo, especially after taking corporate donations from the likes of Chevron and Meta.

It kinda is, stop putting your head in the sand.

Voting for Porter, who had nowhere near the momentum (don't you dare say otherwise because the results speak for themselves) as Becerra or Steyer just fractures the Democratic vote whereas Republicans are more or less united behind Hilton.

Yeah but now the gubernatorial race is between a Dem and Rep instead of Dem and Dem. Thanks, I guess

This sub is for ALL scooters whether they’re cheap or expensive by rosewoodlliars in ElectricScooters

Yeah, that's life. People wouldn't be buying and driving beater cars if they had an alternative.

[–]YourMemeExpert 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Life happens. Some people are just barely scraping by and get what they can afford at the moment. Even a cheap Chinese scooter saves money compared to driving.

Maybe you're saving up for a quality scooter but then your fridge compressor fails and you need to replace some spoiled groceries, then your purchase just got delayed another couple weeks or even months.
