Hopes of US golden age fade as investors start to worry about ‘Trumpcession’ risk

  • Of course, the Gilded Age wasn't great for regular folks.

    • The Constitution has already collapsed, and we are to blame

  • Media outlets still can't bring themselves to blame Trump and Republicans.

    • On May 5, Microsoft’s Skype will shut down for good

  • Excellent stewardship, Microsoft.

  • Dems and Bernie will talk about it, but they won't DO anything about it.

  • Translation: He's not black or a woman.

    • Is Linux Ready For Mainstream Gaming In 2025?

    Jump

  • Pretty much, yeah. Only thing not 100% yet are some of the more obscure peripherals. Example: Eye and head tracking. While sticks can and do work in Linux, it would be nice if VKB, Virpil, etc had native Linux calibration tools.

    • Let’s be clear – the U.S. never had moral supremacy. With Trump, it’s not even pretending any more.

    Jump

  • The problem is everyone demands the "morally superior" entity be PERFECT. One small misstep and you're on par with North Korea.

  • Well press. Get nasty.

    • Why is the IPTV scene such a toxic shit hole?

    Jump

  • Are your stations actually encrypted? Because mine were working fine until recently as many stations encrypted as the NFL playoffs started.

    Or maybe you're just s-p-e-c-i-a-l!

  • Meh, my Plex server is slowly failing anyway because it's on 17 y/o hardware.

  • How do you manually upgrade to the beta?

  • Except that's not the experience everyone has. HDHR isn't getting keys, because the networks don't allow it for the HDHR devices.

  • Plex doesn't support ATSC 3.0 yet, specifically the audio. So it can't play ATSC 3.0 broadcasts.

  • It's usable until your local stations decide to encrypt. Then HDHomerun will not work.

  • Lots of TV stations in the US are moving to the new broadcast standard, ATSC 3.0, encrypting the channel, and stopping their ATSC 1.0 broadcasts. This makes an antenna useless. And the only digital boxes that are allowed are ones that have to be plugged into the TV directly with HDMI. This means you'd have to have an antenna and expensive converter box for EACH TV.

    Basically, broadcast TV is an unreliable mess now.

  • In a first, I'm rooting for retaliatory audits.

    • India to receive billions in US weapons, including F-35 stealth jets: Trump

  • "Look at me, I'm so much smarter than you because I pointed out the blindingly obvious."

    • Why Steam can be considered a monopolistic platform?

    Jump

  • I reject that idea. The argument is that users are too stupid. MS never prevented me from installing and using Chrome or Firefox or any other browser.
