Seriously, where is the money going?

Thanks. It’s the one thing I was looking for and it wasn’t in the video
- Comment on Braid, Anniversary Edition, Launch Trailer 11 hours ago:
What system? PC only?

Did you like the settlement building or no?

Three letter agencies are not elected and tyrannical by default.

The first name that came to mind was Thomas Sowell
- Comment on Fact checked 2 weeks ago:
Then why would they sponsor a terrorist attack against the US?
- Comment on Fact checked 2 weeks ago:
If that’s true why haven’t we invaded Saudi Arabia? Or put sanctions on them or something.
- Comment on I'm a Tenured College Professor. I'm Quitting. Here's Why. 2 weeks ago:
That is deeply insulting
- Comment on Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time? 2 weeks ago:
Or when it “corrects” a word I didn’t want, so I delete the part it changed and then type in what I want to say and it “corrects” it again into the same thing I just deleted. Satan could learn a thing or two from whoever invented that “feature.”
- Comment on It's important to get a good interest rate 2 weeks ago:
You can’t do that forever though. Eventually you’ll run out of credit and have to pay for it yourself. And by that point you’re probably getting crushed by the debt from a maxed out card, that you’d have been better off not using in the first place.
- Comment on It's important to get a good interest rate 2 weeks ago:
Are you saying you need credit to live? Because that’s not true. Lot’s of people live that way, but it’s not necessary.
- Comment on Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time? 2 weeks ago:
It seems to very a lot from phone to phone. My current phone is terrible. It “corrects” words I don’t want it to, and leaves in obvious typos.
- Comment on epidemiology 2 weeks ago:
That must be the origin of Covid, it explains why they can’t find where it actually came from.
- Comment on It's important to get a good interest rate 2 weeks ago:
You don’t have to use credit, taxes are taken from you by force. Not comparable imo.
- Comment on Meta spent $4.3 billion on its VR division in three months, and made *checks figures* $440 million in return 3 weeks ago:
Everyone in my family has one. We play ping pong.
This reads like a joke. 50 years of technological development and people are just playing hi-tech pong.
- Comment on Meta spent $4.3 billion on its VR division in three months, and made *checks figures* $440 million in return 3 weeks ago:
Wow, I’m shocked it’s that high. I’ve never heard of someone using one.
- Comment on Meta spent $4.3 billion on its VR division in three months, and made *checks figures* $440 million in return 3 weeks ago:
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but these companies need to pay more taxes. Losing $3.9 billion dollars on a stupid vanity project because they have nothing else to spend it on is ridiculous. Higher taxes would at least force them to be more efficient.
- Comment on Meta spent $4.3 billion on its VR division in three months, and made *checks figures* $440 million in return 3 weeks ago:
I don’t think the technology is there yet. As long as people need to wear big bulky goggles and headsets it’s not going to take off. Make something that’s about as cumbersome as sunglasses and less than $1000 and there might be mass adoption.

Here, let Bill Burr tell you

Windows sucks. I wish I could put Linux on my work computer.
- Comment on Education 3 weeks ago:
Why do they care so much about the protests that they are having the students arrested? I don’t get it. Just let them protest
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Sounds like Heaven’s Gate
- Comment on First known test dogfight between AI and human pilot carried out, US military says 3 weeks ago:
But can a drone fly like an F-16?
- Comment on First known test dogfight between AI and human pilot carried out, US military says 3 weeks ago:
Jets are far more powerful than humans are capable of controlling. Flight suits and training can only do so much to keep the pilot from blacking out.
Can they be piloted remotely? Or would that be too dangerous with latency

One of many industries that needs more anti-trust enforcement.
