Its still a valid concern when companies are buying up 500$ Mac minis to use as AI chat bots. If the steam machine becomes the cheapest way to do a specific business thing that’s common enough, then they would get purchased. I agree that they won’t be able to subsidize them with an expectation of recouping from steam digital sales.
I honestly can’t find anything on google anymore. I barely use it at all, but sometimes someone will hand me their phone, so I’ll give it a shot. I always end up switching to ddg before I find what I’m looking for.
There might be a way to use google search these days but its apparently beyond my desire/skills to learn it.
I use it mainly as a home media pc. I got it as a gift though.
These idiots will deify anything, won’t they?
Fair enough, I’ll look into it!
Last time I tried I had issues but it was quite a while ago. Do you know a good guide or something you can post?
Craigslist is still fantastic and hasn’t changed for like 30 years.
I sort of missed that one. Sort of makes the post odd.
Sounds like a straight shooter to me. What’s not to like?
The pro2 and pro3 are awesome too, they are PlayStation style controllers.
This is just a game to them, they have nothing to lose no matter what happens.
The tension in this gif is fantastic!
I’m not really convinced. I’ve quit a job for moral reasons without anything else lined up, and I have a house, kids, and cars. These Meta employees make at least triple what I do, but somehow I have more financial freedom than they do? Explain that part to me.
My guess is simply that I’m comfortable cutting expenses while most of these Meta employees aren’t. I dont understand why anyone would rather break their morals than cut expenses. Thats why I said they are greedy.
Everyone has a choice, this isn’t slave labor. The most common argument I hear from these people is “I’m used to the amount I make, and I can’t go back now.” And again, they are not choosing between working at Meta and “being able to afford life”. These are supposed to be smart people, yet they actually can’t see any other choice?
Ego and greed drive people to these positions that they think they deserve, there is no moral justification here. Its a perfect example of the fuck-you-get-mine lifestyle that America promotes.
I’m not shocked that the people who work there have convinced themselves they are good people, but I am surprised at how many people on the outside will defend them.
Well evil is a ridiculous word, but yes they are immoral people the way I see it. That doesn’t mean I want them executed or put in prison. We should simply call something wrong when we think its wrong. Those people are hopefully going to grow and learn. I’m not going to give them praise or any social benefit until they do so, however.
All I’m doing is signalling that I disagree with those peoples life choices on a moral level. I don’t see why that’s such a cruel thing.
There is nuance, but some companies are far past that. Meta is one of them. Theres a bunch of other examples. I dont think walmart employees are morally bankrupt, however, because the Walton’s are. There has to be a line somewhere and some companies have caused too much harm on too large a scale.
You think the choices are work for Meta or starve? Its Raytheon or be homeless?
Fuck out of here with that nonsense. If you trade morals for money, dont be surprised when people call you out as morally bankrupt. Isn’t that the trade that was made? Grow up and own your shit.
Is your argument that they deserve the pay so it doesn’t matter how they get it? They are selfish, and likely over extend themselves financially for ego and status. Apparently you are saying the only way they can be happy is if they are wealthy? What a morally bankrupt philosophy.
Its hard to say really, there’s competing perspectives coming out depending which article you read. Another article claimed that RAM prices have peaked as China begins supplying cheap consumer ram to the market. They showed an example of a corsair stick that already has been produced with Chinese chips.
