Even on release the 5090 cost more than my whole PC... and my PC literally had the highest end version of every other consumer grade component and a 9070XT (so highest end non-nvidia GPU). Point is it was always overpriced, a single component should not cost more than an entire rig.

Honestly all the characters were really likable, I especially appreciated how...
::: spoiler spoiler Capricorn was an actual person with her own trauma and shit going on rather than a KillAllHumans! evil AI. 10/10 Would hug and join the hivemind. :::

iirc the UK actually somehow negotiated itself into a worse deal than the EU was actually offering due to refusing to concede on some things that then had to be done anyway for trade purposes?

Nah nah, the play is to say that they are people who are working voluntarily and also they can vote! (As interpreted by the data center owners)

Honestly at this point there are only a handful of headlines that cover about 90% of news stories:
-Young people 'choose' lifestyle choice that was forced upon them by external conditions.
-Young people are 'killing industry' that they are not paid enough to even dream of participating in.
-Rich person/people found guilty of or admitted to enormous crime will go unpunished.
-Someones totally unqualified opinion on a subject that we're reporting as news because they're rich.
-World ending, shareholders rejoice.

We made everything super expensive and created a toxic work culture that weighs on your every waking moment while cutting salaries so that both people in a relationship need to work full time... why is no one having kids?

Society prizes art above all else (its like 90% of what we remember about ancient cultures if you count stories as art) but hates artists with a passion.

The final, ultimate, last, epilogue, finishing, concluding update.

Especially after the protagonist has gunned down like a hundred security guards to get into that office.

I feel like prep time gives the human the advantage, prep is basically our whole thing and you can make a lot of sharpened sticks in an hour.

I miss non obtrusive adds, remember when add blockers weren't a thing and we were all fine with the adds in the sidebar trying to sell us virus laden glittery custom mouse cursors? Instead we have an arms race where the net is essentially unuseable without an add blocker.

Honestly you guys are fucked, Even if Biden scrapes a win these are going to be the stakes every 4 years until the US turns into a dictatorship. Fuck knows how that's going to affect the rest of us around the world in the long run.

My understanding was always that CPR isn't meant to revive someone its meant to keep them viable for revival by people with better training/equipment.

Not most children, but if a rich shareholder needs a transplant, the car has a database of matching people who are organ donors or who's parents believe in organ donation and will make subtle attempts to accidentally run them over. (A joke but fuck it maybe not at this point)

Real life has officially passed 'The Dictator' in terms of absurdity.

So I don't disagree that we need to get less chosey and start voting for the lesser evil at the very least (not even american here bu the UK also has a choice between fuckwad A and B right now) But the bar for 'extreme leftists' has now gotten so low that depending on the company simply suggesting that we shouldn't leave people to die on the street will get you classified as 'extreme leftist'

You get what you pay for, pay your employees shit and get shit. Completely remove all rewards for hard work and no ones going to be incentivized to do more than the bare minnimum.

122°F (50°C) is the required sustained ocean temperature to theoretically form a continent spanning hypercane incase anyones interested.

Damn OP is lucky, I get the opposite where every once in a while it feels like my brain suddenly downshifted and added a new layer of fog that never goes away, instead I just acclimate to the new feeling of reduced capacity.

Aren't microsoft products half vibe coded at this point anyway? Look at all these fires I put out, says fireman with trunk full of flares and gasoline.
