  • I'd be a little more enthused if both companies main goal from this wasn't to make us work while wearing them.

  • If one of you spreads extra wide, you can just go for a double decker.

  • If somebody tells you voting is pointless, they are voting for somebody you wouldn't vote for.

  • Less if anything.

    You buy something from China for $100. Add packing, staff costs and delivery and you sell it retail for say $200. A nice healthy profit margin.

    Now you add the 145%, so it costs $245 from China. None of the rest of it will cost you more. Still an extra $100, for $345 total.

    The retail customer pays an extra (345/200=) 72.5% instead.

    It's a lot, but not 145%.

    So if your retail price goes up by 145% or more, they either weren't making a lot of profit before, or they're greedy bastards.

  • This thing is going to struggle with some of the Phantom Liberty sections. It skipped PS4 for a reason...

  • TFW Jeff Fucking Bezos is a voice of reason in this shitstorm...

    Should double down and put a goofy orange face saying "I did that" pointing at all the Trump tariffs.

  • That's fair enough. They still need to be a business after all.

    Id open sourced Doom and Quake decades ago, but you still can't just have all the assets for nothing.

  • Here's the thing. If you watch that, Netflix know your IP. If you're on an Android TV box, Google will know your IP.

    Odds are your phone is on the Wifi. Linked through IP. Now you get ads for Stranger Things on your phone. It doesn't need to listen because everything is so leaky. You are linked on so many devices.

  • Well if you're going to be prosecuted for peacefully protesting, you might as well do it non-peacefully.

  • Does it freeze up all the time like in the Digital Foundry video?

    If not I'm wondering if it's that stupid shader compiling thing that has plagued PC games all generation.

  • Said the bad n word on stream.

  • Day of the Kittids.

  • Well wait in line then...

  • I once asked somebody for a spreadsheet (they were trying to import the data into my software and it was failing), and got back a .doc file containing a screenshot of Excel running the spreadsheet.

    I was in awe of how somebody could misuse so many pieces of software at once.

  • Especially now an "AI" bullshitting an answer is a thing.

  • Just assume they're joking and think on it no further.

    Do not Google anything!

  • Probably. It's going to come out of their health insurance after all.

  • Indeed. What you are looking for is a spreadsheet.

    Don't overcomplicate things.
