I’m nearly at 7 with my employer and I’ve found the situation to be quite good and I see no sign yet to jump ship. There’s still good gigs out there.

I’m sure the person you are responding to had good reason to stick around 20 years. It’s possible only recently did the math not work out for them.

Yeah, I’m with you. The entitlement around media (games movies TV) is insane to me.

You do realize those are usually exclusive for only a year, right? So EGS pays them out for a year of exclusivity and then the devs are free to launch on steam and others.

The thing is, often if they don’t get that first infusion of cash from a deal with EGS (or another investor) they don’t get to complete or even launch the game at all. So it never would make it to the other markets.

I have a pair of wired ath m50x from 2008. They still work well and on the third set of pads.

Uhh it’s not like the UK is actually any better in this situation if it’s true that they are sending random migrants to Rwanda

Could you pull the ladder up behind you any harder?

Not suggesting our system is correct or even good, but have you considered who a person counts as their most trusted advisors? Usually ones immediate family are very important to them and often helps guide their opinions on life.

So when it comes to the president or leader of a country, I think it’s actually a bit nice to see the family, because they will absolutely be involved somehow. Knowing if the family is stable or not in public appearances is fairly valuable to understanding the proposed leader.

So what, we should eat shit and die and suffer and not be excited about things that feel like small victories?

The pov you’re providing is bleak and grim. We aren’t dumb, we know we’re fucked and our election sucks. We can focus on multiple things at a time and we can laugh at our political idiots while also being mad at them.

Definitely try and finish the series first. The unofficial fourth is a direct continuation of some of the in-universe lore/happenings

They tried to stand impartial (my most generous interpretation of reddits in-action towards the donald) and it really fucked them.

It’s so weird how many platforms cater to harmful rhetoric in an effort to stay neutral only for them to later ban the community after the damage has been done.

If I were more conspiratorial I’d suggest the Donald survived for as long as it did on purpose and with the explicit support of the reddit admins/execs…

And then 34 tomorrow. Lol, lmao.

I’d suggest skipping it. While it’s a fun continuation, the writer is not nearly as good as Liu Cixin. It’s definitely a fanfic

For me it was when his videos turned into advertisements blatant for paying the bills. He moved to CA, lost the passion for yt (which I don’t blame him, life happens) but then the videos he would make were soulless adverts in his vlog style.

He seems to be “back” now doing videos with passion and vigor. I hope he’s having fun again

Read the article, sounds like both parties are just blowing smoke. At the end it tells us current investment into this market was less than 100b last year. So 1tril is a 10x investment of the yearly we see today. It also suggested the entire chip industry is doing about 600b in sales. So Sam is looking to take a 10x investment into the space?

Altman’s fundraising goal of $5 trillion to $7 trillion far exceeds the present valuation of the worldwide semiconductor industry, which recorded sales of $527 billion last year and is anticipated to hit the $1 trillion mark by 2030. Meanwhile, chip manufacturers invested $99.5 billion in chip fabrication equipment in 2022 and are projected to allocate $97 billion for fabrication tools this year.

I mean I believe the numbers they come up with, that they want to 10x the space. But it’s a ludicrous goal that doesn’t really make sense in practice. Every CEO would love to take on 7 trillion dollars of investment to do anything and would scream it from the mountaintops.

I just don’t know that what they are saying is meaningful at all, at least Sam’s 7tril claim

Could you elaborate on which? I’ve seen a lot of sketchy reviews recently

FYI, lots of people have different grocery needs so a broad statement like “grocery trips are $N these days” is pretty meaningless without the context of your purchases or needs.

A better example might be “my grocery bills are up 50% this year with no changes to what I buy!!”

My grocery budget has changed the last few years, but from $65 average to now $85 average. That said the supplemental food I buy (occasional orders out, etc) has risen significantly more, probably upwards of +60% at times.

Fastmail supports aliases as well. I’m not sure how they are from a privacy side overall tho

Yeah, is almost like shaming people for driving smaller vehicles is dumb. Turns out there are a lot of different needs.

I’m also the moderator of a community that Stamets has quit, so I know that losing him is a blow, because he posts a lot of content

Eh no worries, not really a loss when most of the posts were a deluge of low quality content. My feed instantly got better after that block…

The feline investigation bureau?
