  • Nice MO (besides the voting manipulation)

    Oh no, that argument about current capabilities ruins my whole schtick, let me pick up a PS so I can counter argue a red herring...

    You must be from the US

    edit: more than half of the people in the world live in Africa/Asia, I don't see those regions being particularly affected by rare earth metal restrictions. Microsoft, OpenAI and Apple et al might be fucked though, and that means that scenario would be a good thing.

  • TIL a steady transfer of rare earth metals from China is necessary for all of the computers of today to continue working. Is it like a subscription. Rare earth pass, subscribe now.

    Otherwise, ya, hermit life FTW

  • Yes.

  • Richard Wolf had a very good take on all of these Silicon Valley "disruptors". It's basically been the neoliberal US american MO for the past quarter century:

    Step 1: get a bunch VC money by promising the moon

    Step 2: "disrupt" by undercutting the established moon due to lack of regulation. Even though it's an inferior product, it's VC subsidised, so it's cheaper than the established businesses.

    Step 3: due to lack of regulation, your business drives established operators to bankruptcy. This is basically dumping but the regulation hasn't caught up.

    Step 4: become the monopoly and suck as much money as possible from your customers to generate "shareholder value"

  • It's the murican VC MO:

    Why compete when you can buy the competition before it even develops?

  • I couldn't read past the bio, gave me Linkedin PTSD and my confidence levels cratered. That's the IT equivalent of fake quotes with abstract art backgrounds on facebook, it immediately disqualifies the author.

  • This is hyperloop levels of stupid about something that, when looking exclusively at the general public, has the same amount of uses as hyperloop did...

  • Or they can do what they normally do, steal it and then sue to be considered the original invento/founder and then make a Hollywood film about how they invented it/found it.

  • You're being downvoted, this is a perfect example of:

    *they hated Jesus because he spoke the truth 😂🤣

  • Is this what the proton dude meant?

  • James Bond was on the wrong side of history after all!

  • Oh look, it's the second shoe dropping.

  • And here it is gents, this and some old fashion bribery nicely explains why NV got some tariff and export restriction exemptions. The US government is a good old fashion racket.

  • Before the sale when Igor still wrote for them, Tom's was pretty well respected as was Anand.

  • Here, follow this affiliate link to this overpriced portable machine.

  • Oh look, another Tom's guide advertorial masking as original content...

  • Were long due on some guillotine action.

  • Translation:

    "modders, plis fix. We don't give a shit about gamers no more son"
