Bullshit.
You really think companies in America with monoplies would lower prices just because their costs went down?
I wish I lived in an America like that…
Bullshit.

People thought they’d hang onto CDs and DVDs too…


Good luck…
Even when the bubble bursts, they’re going to have an insane amount of computing power just sitting there, it will get sold off in bankruptcy proceedings, and some company will gobble it up and operate at a loss while continuing to secure future supply contracts.
There’s a very real chance that we’re witnessing the slow death of home computing.
The way things shake out it might end up being prohibitively expensive compared to cloud computing, and once that’s the norm they price gouge like Walmart did to destroy small businesses.
Instead of dropping a couple grand for a PC every couple years, we’ll have steady contracts paying for month at a time indefinitely.


The sentiment is shifting from anti-russia to pro-russia.
What shit hole corner of the Internet are you hanging out where pro-russia content is becoming the norm?!
And why would you think AI chatbots would do better against them than actual humans?
Oh…
Yeah, just make a new account on a new instance and block your old one


“We are birthing superintelligence. We are creating the mind of God, infinite, destined to solve every problem we’ve ever faced and usher in an age without death.”
What brain rotted CEO grifter is that quote even from?


Prebuilts have become about the only way to get a deal for a while now.


Whatevere, whatever, if closeness to platfroms my and languages, their AI pick, are a statement
We’re cooked…


Wasn’t the studios fault
They fought to change the name since the beginning because they knew it would be impossible to deliver a real sequel and while this name might get initial sales it would cause blowback killing the game almost immediately…
Which is exactly what happened.
Like, they’d have loved to make Masquerade 2, but they weren’t given the time or funds to make it.


As a result there’s a capacity crunch on memory production, shooting the prices for RAM sky high, over 100 percent in the last few months alone
They said “market price”… What market are you shopping at?!


So instead of X disabling it…
Only Apple did


If it’s isolated from a current it would be filled with denser saltwater with a higher salt concentration until it eventually fills in with sediment


They’ve been relaxing it for a while…


Oh, it sounds like it?
Did you think of checking yourself before just fucking guessing someone was wrong and making a comment?
Like, imagine hearing someone say something on the Internet, and not being sure if they’re right…
So you just fucking guess in a comment and wait four fucking hours to see if the original person will reply back.
Instead of you taking the two seconds to check before making that comment.
What the fuck is wrong with people?
Just willfully and proudly ignorant.


No…
That’s why I said what I said…
Thanks for taking the time to make a reply telling everyone your guess instead of, i dunno…
You taking two second to check yourself?


As long as you’ve been paying your taxes, you can set fed withholdings to $0 until the shutdown is over. Go a couple years without paying, and the Fed has probably set your withholding for you by now.
You’ll still owe income tax, but this stops giving them an interest free loan trump will just blow thru.
Ideally I’d like to see blue states coordinate it for their citizens, just so it’s all sitting in a big find that the state can use as a carrot to reopen the fed.


The problem is instead of finding better ways to stop it (regulations) you’re looking for “productive” ways to use it…
Apparently because you’ve pre-emptively given up.
But if you succeed it would lead to more AI and more damage to our planet.
I fully understand you believe you have good intentions, I’m just struggling to find a way to explain to you that intentions don’t matter. And I don’t think I’m going to come up with a way you’ll beavle to understand.
It’s like if someone was stuck in a hole in the ground, and instead of wanting to climb out, you yank everyone else back into the hole when they try and keep trying to get them to help you redecorate the hole.
I truly hope someone can present that in a way that gets through to you, because you are doing real damage.


Sure, we sunk billions into this thing destroying our planet and we don’t know how to profit off, but that no reason to stop or even slow down


You know what else would make life better for people?
Accessible healthcare…
You know why that’s better than AI? We don’t need to burn the planet down to use it after spending billions to get it going


They don’t real fluctuate, it’s more oscillating.
Sometimes it’s “normal” but due to a wide range of issues that can change quickly and stay that way for months because everyone waits till prices go down. So as they go down, people stop waiting,
You’re acting like that’s a common scenario…
There’s a few small slices of area in a minority of states where you might be legally allowed to pick, but that is not a guarantee there’s more than one option.
To my knowledge most of them are artificial monopolies anyways.
Like, in Perfectville your choice between any available provider is legally protected. However company A and company B made a handshake deal to draw a line down the area and not provide service on one side of the line.

Very few of those green states are for electricity
And if you just meant:
Then I’m going to have to explain an entirely different thing…
And I’m not optimistic about our chances to be honest
