No, that doesn't exist yet. Children will have to keep using mobile apps and loot boxes.

When people stop trading it, then it will be useless. Little to no trades will be the nail in the coffin, regardless of the price.

If average adults can't be trusted to vote. Then can they be trusted with a firearm? Trusted to be on a jury? At what point do we just give up on holding people accountable for their own government and let a nanny state take over so that people can just mind their own life and not be bothered by the burden that a representative democracy places on its people. Instead of being a citizen of a republican, we can demote ourselves to being property of an empire. It's a far simpler life as a serf serving a master than to live with no master but your self.

Lots of things you can do. If you vote and then nothing changes, the system isn't working is it. Saying that you voted and leaving it at that is an admission of defeat when you could protest, general strike, etc.

How many AI start ups are going to last long enough to finish a 4 year memory purchasing agreement? The defaults are going to flood the market with excess inventory that Micron would have had to build and warehouse to keep their end of the agreement

That is largely true.

But in the case of games, I'm not on your property. And we already discussed servers - I might not even be on your servers.

It might help to clearly separate these two cases: Pure online games with servers hosted exclusively by the game publisher, and the 90% of other games (single player or multiplayer with player-operated servers).

And there we have it, the usual ad hominem of people who have run out of actual arguments. Signaling the end of the discussion, because why the fuck should I bother talking to someone who says such shit?

Goodbye.

It's your government, it exists because the people grant it the authority. Take control of it for once instead of acting like the government is a separate and opaque entity.

Would have been a big deal to have something like Disney+ being an Apple-only service. So there were potential upsides to both companies, but the devil is in the details. It would have had to be structured like a holding company with CEOs remaining in each respective division so that very little changes from the outside.

I paid around $11k for the similar Chevy S-10 back in the mid 90s, that's more like $25K in today's dollars.

I hope an electric car doesn't need a starter replacement.

My parents had a van that had aftermarket power steering. I learned to drive on it, and it drove like a loaf of bread. A hard crust and then way too soft.

3D print and hot glue whatever you want into the Slate. We can bring back ashtrays as an option in cars again.

NY Times is well known for being under the thumb of the big tiny car industry and big bicycle to work lobbyists.

- Left is best. Have a nice day.

That's a feature that depends on if you get the premium trim, and it isn't common in sedans. If you're like me and buy the work truck trim (WT), there's no seat height adjustment.

You don't have to go back to the 1980's, try anything before 2020 and you'll see that option is pretty rare.

Raise your seat? are you an alien, have you never been in a car on this planet?
How would someone short reach the pedals if they had their seat height jacked up, it's not going to help. And it's an incredibly rare feature.

Even if your eyeballs are at the top of the windshield, the angle you can see is not going to let you see beyond your vehicle's hood. Especially if it's an SUV with a long hood and square front. Sloping downwards like typical (and safer) compact car gives you far better visibility for what is immediately in front of you, regardless of your seat high hallucinations.

off-center driving position is nice so that the driver is placed in the most risk of a head on collision. They need that sense of fear and consequences in order to stay in their damn lane.
