I genuinely think you’re misreading that comment. I read this as an acknowledgement/warning of past human idiocy recurring, which, when we extrapolate from known data, is fucking likely.

Ironically, your misinterpretation has led to your own hyperbolic reaction, so maybe this is about self-pity.

Remorse would be fatal to a man with that many horcruxes…

Ok, but if your expectations are permanent nerfed you’re gonna be a much easier mark… Plus tacit acceptance of a shitty status quo is pretty self-defeating.

Personally, buying an index for me did not feel overpriced, and I’m barely a thousandaire. I’d tried the existing crop of standalone hardware (for accuracy’s sake, this is circa 2020). Those, relative to their performance, felt overpriced. I feel that got what I wanted, for a price I felt was fair. The build quality is up to my expectations. Fully acknowledge this is niche, but the value proposition didn’t make me gasface.

When computing power is 10-20x better, cooler, more efficient and smaller, I’ll order from that menu, and you nailed it with the exclusion of Zuckerberg. He’s done more to cringe-ify VR than any google glasshole ever could, even if we ignore the creepy idea that I’m a “product” to them while using occulus…

Customer tells Dell it won’t be eligible for consideration as a replacement PC. No conditions were mentioned.

You lost me when you mistook valve for Facebook.

I guess a lot of us didn’t learn from history, or even go see ‘Oppenheimer’…

Release the Lepredrones!

It also tells us how hypocritical we all are since absolutely every single one of us would make the same decisions they have if we were in their shoes. This shit was one bajillion percent inevitable; we are in a river and have been since we tilled soil with a plough in the Nile valley millennia ago.

Careful! You’re gonna rustle their jimmies… Oops looks like ya did, all these howler monkey replies lol.

Was that before or after he stared down the Magat trolls and beyond-obviously-corrupted supreme court justices to their faces?

And of course, we can rely on the universally true mutual exclusivity of always having a passenger when we need to navigate, and never needing to navigate when we don’t have any passengers. As constant as the north star, that one.
