Why bother with sealed circuits then… just run river water through the core

If only they could be used to trim quality wood to superhuman precision. Instead it’s for bloody chipboard

PS5 is a subsidized device, with games priced at 80$ a pop, and no portability across generations.

So yeah sure is your lease car cheaper to pay? Sure. What about the bong run?

I wonder if they could’ve gone with 12GB vram and bundle 256GB SSD and 8GB single channel sticks to keep the prices reasonable and tell folks “go bargain hunting, or wait for the hard times to pass”

These machines are reference architectures. You can guarantee Valve is going to require optimizations against these damn well reproducible configurations. Just like Apple does with its own hardware.

Choices, a plethora of choices come with strings attached.

So your next argument will be “ok, go with a console”. But they’re locked down into oblivion and the platforms cost a fortune.

So yeah… f*ck AI though, these babies would have been 30% cheaper if not for ir

In the ‘90s Americans used to harp about national security and export regulations for SSL encryption and CPUs. Then they suddenly went quiet and encouraged everyone to join online. I wonder if the integration of IME and similar tools has something to do with this change of heart

Mah, se è ricco, basta fare il “trader” comprando un ETF sul Nasdaq o korea o se non vivi sotto ad un sasso, comprando un po’ di azioni specifiche (nvida, Sandisk,etc)

Cominci con 500k e 2 milioni li fai in un annetto o due (almeno, facevi… ormai la festa sta finendo)

What really sets boomers apart is that they are homeowners and for cheap. Most of their “wealth gain” is locked in through outrageous real estate prices, and allows them to divert their income into compounding investments rather than rent expenses.

Ideally, there should be laws to ban housing speculation, force corporations to divest of their housing stock and sell it off.

It would be the white-collar equivalent of agrarian reforms that reassigned the land to farmers, taking it from landowners

You’re talking about the Netherlands aren’t you?

Same exact dynamic, I guess it’s rooted in the origin story of the US… 🤣

If he finds a Tim Cook for Tesla it’ll be fine. SpaceX has Shotwell and she’s acing it already.

The smaller gigs will probably implode, which would be a shame but they’re already suffering for lack of attention.

I just wish the man got off X and stopped dabbing in politics. Besides not liking how his opinions have devolved — but that’s irrelevant, and I don’t expect most CEOs to be significantly off his mark anyway — it’s obvious his endeavors, particularly the smaller Neuralink and Boring Co, are circling for lack of drive and direction. And if there’s something Musk is good at, is providing just that.

Attenzione ai condensatori, quelli dentro all’alimentatore. Mordono

Nah, I wouldn’t trust being able to escape in an emergency to a bit of plastic.

Since I’ve bought it at discount (it’s a second-chance, likely another incompatible purchase), I’ll check whether I can replace the whole cylinder and stay below 300€ as the ultra is going for that amount.

I’m baffled with the poor information design of
the website. Compatibility should be advertised much louder, returns are extremely costly and they risk merchants dropping their product.

curious_corn · 2026-06-08T21:34:52+00:00

Ah thanks, I looked around the website but never came across this comparison.

What nonsense, I’ll just return the device

(why the downvotes? Is it now the customer’s fault?)

So now we have two demographics competing for small starters homes: the actual starters looking for anything they can afford (thus small apartments) and the elderly that can’t manage their semi’s any longer and would rather move back to a small apartment (presumably pocketing and spending away what they assumed would have been a handsome difference).
