"They’re filled with regret, death and acceptance. And they’re all centered around people who didn’t get vaccinated for some reason or another."
Aye, 99% of them didn't want to because they bought into bullshit on Facebook and YouTube. I have no sympathy left to give to these people. They made their beds, and now they must lie in them.
"ROM sites are still a ubiquitous problem for 20 year old consoles. Youtube, Spotify, Steam and Netflix made content easy to get. There's no equivalent for most ROMs, so they're still widely pirated."
The only example I can think of is Nintendo Online. You can play select NES and SNES games on the Switch with a N.O. subscription.
I collect ROMs, I've got damned near 4Tb worth. I collect for two reasons:
1. Archiving
2. Most of the "good" vintage games carry ridiculous prices. Games that had over 10 million copies pressed going for $100+. Even if we assume 1 million were destroyed, that's still 9 million copies floating about. Not exactly rare or worth $100.
Bradley sounds like a crotchety old asshole that would be happier if he'd get with the times and use an digital system instead of limiting customers to 3 items and not accepting paypal unless the total is over $50/
Yeah I definitely see the value in privacy and respect for the user, and Librem is king there, but that still doesn't justify a $2,000 price tag to me. I wouldn't pay $15,000 for a Ford Pinto because it has bulletproof windows.
This isn't fucking "BigPharmaCo". This is someone who suffered and the meds helped. Believe it or not, mental illnesses are a real thing, and some of us need the help of medicines to deal with the issues. Take your conspiracy theory bullshit on somewhere you fucking clown
I didn't know I had ADHD until I was 31. But goddamn when I found out what made me the way I was and was able to get help, my world changed. No longer did I question why I couldn't remember anything or stay focused for longer than 10 minutes. Why I loved my job but seemed to struggle with it.
I took the help, and I feel better for it.
You should at least let them run the tests. What do you have to lose?
I'm in the labor force, but live at home. I can absolutely afford to purchase a home.
Why don't I?
Because I'm not spending $250,000+ on 1400sq ft. These types of articles make it seem like some huge mystery as to why society is the way it is today. It's no mystery. Houses cost to much and employers don't pay enough.
This is really cool, but it's $2,000. The problem is the specs don't quite justify a $2,000 price tag. The iPhone 12 Pro Max is $1,099 for 256Gb model. The Librem 5 has 32Gb built in. Granted you can expand storage on the Librem 5, but that's added cost on top of the $2,000. There are other specs to compare, but storage is an easy target.
I think the project is awesome, and I'd be very inclined to purchase one, but I can't justify $2,000 for a comparatively subpar device.
