  • You aren’t getting a processor, graphics card, a motherboard, case and that ram for $699 right now, though. That’s my point. It’s more than double the cost, if not maybe even triple right now. Do you actually get double or triple the value then? Touche on the steam savings (you could even argue pirating - not condoning but just saying it’s an option, to get those savings), but are you going to actually close the gap? PC games tend to be more demanding too, plus as a PC gamer I often find games need a lot more time for optimization and need tinkering, whereas with a console they just sort of work. There’s pros and cons to each for sure, but I’m of the opinion that right now I’m more heavily on the side of the console, at least from a $ value perspective.





  • One thing that I just absolutely cannot reconcile in all of this, is the involvement of people who obviously have some sort of first or second generational immigration background, in screaming and oppressing immigration.

    I know of a person who is now in the US just absolutely down the MAGA spiral. But the weird thing is, his grandparents died in a concentration camp in the second world war. He himself is now an immigrant to the US, from a country he also immigrated to earlier in life. Just absolutely droning on about…immigrants.

    It’s completely baffling. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.






  • That’s the biggest joke and irony of this all! All these greedy execs, going AI AI AI AI AI AI, I mean if they had a braincell to share amongst the lot of them, maybe they’d realize sometime soon. That you can’t replace mechanical input or physical labour, but you sure as shit can replace some blowhard in an office somewhere, who otherwise adds nothing to the equation but bullshit.



  • Right!? I’m really starting to like the sounds of this. Did you hear that story about the vending machine one of those techbro companies had with AI, where everyone started to fool it and it was ordering PlayStations for them and stuff? Like this all makes AI sound like it’s fucking awesome. Completely hopeless and fucking awesome all at the same time!!


  • Sooooo AI is replacing my boss, is basically what this getting at, right?

    I know we are all like fuck AI and stuff, but please do continue. Is this going to involve setting goals for the year? Am I going to have to complete a self evaluation? Am I getting a raise? What happens if I tell the AI to fuck off, is it going to unalive me? I mean anytime I ask AI to tell me something, I get like 90 pages of drivel and it won’t do what I want it to, so basically that’s just pretty much my boss in a nutshell, no?

    In theory, AI could at least be made to be projected as a knockout, while it pours out its nonsense. Versus my boss, who looks like a can of stuffed assholes, and also always pours out a bunch of nonsense while we all look away in abject horror lest we make eye contact.

    I’m starting to wrap my mind around this idea a bit guys, I’m not going to lie…


  • It said somewhere in the article that the trespasser was arrested with a loaded handgun. So I mean yeah, busting into places with a loaded handgun is generally pretty frowned upon. Even if it’s legally possessed, it’s now also illegally handled.

    I mean you don’t bust into labs armed for the purposes of general hobbies or whatever, you wouldn’t think, right? To me that makes me think that if someone was going to catch him, he would consider shooting them, which is sort of serious business. I’m thinking there’s a lot more to come out about this story, unless these guys are just really that into rockets.
