Yeah, I kind of loathe the cinematic direction Sony and others have taken. Their games aren't really innovative or fun but people lap them up for being B tier movies. It makes no sense to me. They don't bother making Bloodborne anymore, just more open world cinematic slop like Horizon.

It does have everything to do with it. Why would anyone in Europe be motivated to build anything innovative if they know they will have the government taking 50% of every dollar they make to fund social programs they probably won’t even receive the benefits of? Why would anyone work hard in that environment? You’re completely ignoring the social/productivity implications of high taxation. Additionally, China does not have anywhere near the level of social programs Europe does. No one in China takes two months off a year as a checkout clerk.

I’m not name calling, I’m describing. If you’re offended, you must be a tankie, lol.

Not to be that guy but you have a very well written comment here completely undermined by your choice of “fucking.” It just sounds crass in this context. Consider using “having sex” or something less aggressive next time. I have no problem with swearing fyi, but here it really has no need.

There’s an HEB here every couple miles. I haven’t seen a single Kroger or Albertsons, it’s not the same at all.

Facts, but the Europeans, tankies, and America haters here will never admit it. Europe sold out its industries for social programs. Not our fault you guys chose social safety nets over industry.

Are you trying to imply that there isn’t coordinated attacks by fringe groups just because they’re leftist?

Not to mention these models are all built off of clearly extremely illegal abuse of human created content, which they will apparently never be held accountable for.

It basically is at this point, if you haven’t noticed. Complete with the same America bad, Elon bad, democrats good midwit progressive politics.

The other user is right, you are being a pedant. Why do you think planet fitness makes money hand over fist? Because 99% of its users sign up, never go, and then also never cancel because it’s cheap enough to leave running. Gyms absolutely bank on low amounts of power users, meaning the rest of the subscribers are subsidizing those that go frequently.

Agreed, everything since 4.6 has been worse

Ultracode destroys your limits and I have not found it to be worth it in the slightest, just fyi. I haven’t found any improvement over a local Claude code instance set to opus max.

You’re not gonna get nuanced discussion on spacex or anything Elon related here these days. Most of this site is Reddit lite at this point including their milquetoast progressive opinions (Elon bad being one of them).

There is no where near 100m American evangelicals. There’s less than 60m almost certainly. It doesn’t account for everything.

American capitalism and the American government and its policies are intertwined. You are arguing literally nothing.

To act like no private citizens or businesses contributed to the internet because it came out of DARPA is ignorant at best. DARPA literally pays private entities to do research for them to this day. It’s their primary mechanism for action. So confidently ignorant.

Take your Reddit tier America bad slop back to Reddit.

Yeah the people that think the world would turn into a magical utopia if we suddenly had to work less hours are just downright ignorant. Every one of them claims they have plenty of hobbies to fill their days. I guarantee by month 3 of no work most of them would be begging for something meaningful to do.
