Surely the Commodore Callback will come to save us. Surely. Any moment now. Phone of the moment.

Similar to phones though, you don't have to buy every 18 months. The one thing it might do though is affect second hand prices more, which is likely a good thing for affordability.

Yeah, for even two hundo, I'd be considering buying this as a fun accessory.

For five hundo? Nope.

Yes, often as a first step to legislation. In the sense that "we tried to let you self-regulate, you didn't, and so...".

I'm speaking here about EU and UK politics, can't speak for the US. It's actually quite usual to do it this way.

The console wars are a never ending cycle of the disruptor becoming the complacent king, and the complacent king being dethroned and needing to become the disruptor.

People should watch Dark Star. "How do I know you are not false data?" "Doesn't matter, the concept is valid no matter where it originated from".

Anecdote only from me of course.but for what it's worth...I'm left-handed. Subconsciously I consider left = "towards what I know" and right = "going further out". This applies to walking, driving...all of it.

I know it's not actually true of course, but if faced with an unfamiliar t-junction while driving or perhaps I'm just out on a walk to get some distance in, that's how I think of it.

It's testable, I agree. However as a left-handed person where my dominant side is the left...I always go left if I can.

Interestingly, though admittedly this is purely my anecdote so take this as such, this translates to driving too. Unknown place, just driving for fun, reach a t-junction and have to choose? To me left = "towards where you know" and right = "going further out". Even if that's not actually the case, that's just how my mind sees it at first glance. Wonder if that's also looked at, and also if it's affected by location (I'm in the UK, so would drive on the left).

...and then the reveal that you can't have it unless you have an M3 chip or later, plus 12Gb of RAM. So that's all the new Neo owners out then isn't it - that's a serious miss.

That's actually not as far away from ours (UK) as I expected. I just did a rough calculation and I make it $8.43 here (converting £1.66 per litre into gallons and USD).

My EV I charge overnight and draw 22kWh per night given my commute, for 7p per kWh. My range is 90 miles, so a spot of converting tells me I pay $2.06 for 90 miles of range.

Seems ok to me.

Which is why it gets ridiculous. You can build an oven with a few conveniently shaped rocks. You can build an over with raw river clay, then use that oven to make better bricks, then use those bricks to make a better oven, which you can use to make even better bricks.

So, all it takes to turn somebody into a greedy capitalist exploiter is...the ability to stack rocks into a box with an opening.

If it does, it will just be replaced by other mosquitos in turn when it disappears. Other mosquitos that don't give humans terrible diseases.

Nonsense. Some of our earliest examples of recorded writing are taxes being collected in the form of grain, sheep, and other goods.

You buy some flour for a dollar. You use that flour to bake bread. You sell that bread for two dollars.

Why the price increase? Because you've improved the capital.
