In this case it was Interplay and Fallout did outlast them.

'Member when YouTube TV was $35/mo? Now it’s around $83 I think

In the USA taxes and titling cost different amounts depending on where you live. It’s easier to calculate once you buy, especially if you are buying in another state than the one you reside in which is a big problem in my state where dealers don’t stock EVs. I had to go to the nearest large city which is in another state from where I reside to get my Bolt EUV.

You can calculate before you buy and each state usually has at least a chart to ballpark what you’ll pay. The easiest way to calculate these taxes would be to not levy them against people to begin with.

Advertising cars would never be feasible on nationally broadcast TV under your system.

They did figure out the problem though. Price set by the manufacture, show cost for delivery on the window sticker, then when you buy they car the title and tax are figured out for where you live. It’s the fairest and easiest way of showing and figuring the price. If you can’t figure out that window stickers are available online and the tax and title yourself before you buy, that’s a you problem. It’s not on the seller nor the manufacturer to post pricing for every state or municipality.

If you want cleaner pricing, demand an end to titling and car taxes.

Except that not every place is next to the car factory. Delivery to Portland, Maine is going to be a much different price in comparison to Austin, Texas. Do you also expect the cost of titling and taxes be included in the advertised price? Do you know that those vary from location to location as well?

bullshit fee

Do you think shipping and transportation of goods is free? Do you think truck drivers drive stuff around out of the goodness of their hearts?

If it waives the destination fee, then I don’t see it as a bad problem depending on how much it would normally cost to deliver vs how many miles.

Sounds like his request for having them in an exhibit was denied

Still have limited wafers at the fabs. The chips going to datacenters could have been consumer stuff instead. Besides they (nVidia, Apple, AMD) are all fabricated at TSMC.

Local AI benefits from platforms with unified memory that can be expanded. Watch platforms based on AMD’s Ryzen AI MAX 300 chip or whatever they call it take off. Frameworks you can config a machine with that chip to 128 GB RAM iirc. It’s the main reason why I believe Apple’s memory upgrades cost a ton so that it isn’t a viable option financially for local AI applications.

Considering that the AI craze is what’s fueling the shortage and massive increase in GPU prices, I really don’t see gamers ever embracing AI.

That only works until stop killing games is passed and forces game devs to release the code for running servers for the games yourselves after the official server(s) close down. Like how City of Heroes/Villians works now.

It’s the price. I want a truck, not a Cadillac with a bed. A truck is meant for work not be a pavement princess. $50k was already high and the truck market is still stupid on price with most trucks going over $60k and Cybertruck starts at $75.5k. If the price was what Elon said when he announced the Cybertruck, it would be flying off the shelves $40k

Yeah, “purchasing” movies or shows comes to mind. When streaming services revoke access and never grant a way to download them, did you ever really purchase the movie or did you just rent it?

No one said it had to be platformed, but call a spade a spade

Are we redefining words now?

Well shit, was reading the story where they mentioned the crew and it stuck in my head.

As if i needed anymore reasons to not buy any Ubisoft 2k games. Less than 2 years of online functionality is awful.

Edit: I’m a goober

Gigabit ethernet port sounds like an easy vector for a adding a cellular modem for an inexpensive phone

This was what I was waiting for. Most reviews were using arrow lake cpus and on windows. I was waiting for amd CPU on Linux to see if it was going to work. Also, if anyone sees any reviews for how it would do in a server for machine learning specifically in TrueNAS Scale, that’d be great.
