Yah, lots of people also depend on the market for their futures. Pensions, 401Ks, IRAs, etc.

Satya Nadella is forgetting the rule “The customer is always right.” He is trying to force customers to a product they didn’t ask for our really need along with a lot of other customer unfriendly issues like nagging to use onedrive subscriptions and forcing to sign in to a MS account to use the OS. This is seriously getting me to consider moving to linux for my next pc build.
- Comment on The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K 1 day ago:
At a certain point yours eyes can’t tell much difference. It is like music, people would obsess over tweaking their stereo systems to the point where I doubt you could physically tell the difference, it was mostly imagined.

This whole “America First” and interfering foreign imports/exports is really working out great. /s
He interferes with the economy like some communist government.
- Comment on YSK: A real American Civil war will NOT be like Battlefield or COD. 2 weeks ago:
Even worse would be the terror groups like in Syria and Vietnam where they come into a town after the enemy has left and slaughter anyone they think did or could collaborate. They would also take all the food they could leaving populations to starve.

That isn’t a civil war though. It isn’t “pedantic” you just don’t know the definition of a civil war.
- Comment on YSK: A real American Civil war will NOT be like Battlefield or COD. 2 weeks ago:
People in the US have been protected from the reality of war since the civil war in the 1860s. Even vets (a very small minority) of real wars get to come home at the end of it. The reality would be more like Vietnam or Syria were the war is your home and there is no escape. It is like the war against vaccines, people have forgotten the reality of life with those diseases and take the return of them very lightly.
- Comment on YSK: A real American Civil war will NOT be like Battlefield or COD. 2 weeks ago:
That isn’t a civil war. That is an autocracy. If the people across the state were coming in a militia to take over that would be a civil war.

One thing you see in places like Syria and the Balkans was a lot of revenge murders and groups that were essentially gangs terrorizing and enslaving towns.

- Comment on xkcd #3194: 16 Part Epoxy 2 weeks ago:
FYI, you can remove it with nail polish remover (acetone).
It reacts with water so the moisture in your skin makes it set immediately.
- Comment on xkcd #3194: 16 Part Epoxy 2 weeks ago:
The only time I’ve used epoxy and had it truly last for years was when the handle came off of a cooking pot. It has held strong for 10+ years. I think the key was the plastic handle fit into a pressed metal fitting and the combination of that stabilization and the glue worked well.

I keep superglue in the fridge. It really helps it last longer.

I think people here watch too many movies. Reality is a lot different.
- Comment on A generation taught not to think: AI in the classroom 2 weeks ago:
Previous tech presented information, made it faster and more available. It also just processed information. AI however claims to do the creativity and decision making for you. Once you’ve done that you’ve removed humans from any part of the equation except as passive consumers unneeded for any production.
How you plan on running an economy based on that structure remains to be seen.
