Australian here; I much prefer living away from cities. I like having a big house on a big block with lots of nature and as few other people around me as possible.

The catch is while the housing and land is wayyyy cheaper, other stuff is more expensive and inconvenient. The biggest thing people don’t consider is trades people; you’ll have plumbers, sparkies etc just refuse to even come out when they find out you’re more than half an hour away from civilisation, and if they do come out they charge for the travel.

For the 99.99% of people that don’t make software that can kill people, OPs post is true.

No one cares if “uber but for X” has some downtime because some dingus forgot what a linked list is.

Why would a gaming react andy get a TV deal? It doesn’t make any sense what are his credentials? Yelling? Catchphrases maybe?

I couldn’t see anyone in my family using a CLI, they’d either be scared of it or get annoyed that they have to remember things. They’d quite happily spend all day clicking around a GUI to avoid 5 seconds of scary terminal words.

Oh is that what we should be calling the dude from Saltburn?

It’s been viable for enthusiasts for a while, but the reason it’s not mainstream is most normal people just don’t want it. It’s clumsy, cumbersome, the content is generally poor, and it’s either a Meta product or very expensive for something that’s ultimately a gimmick at the moment. Not to mention the “metaverse” tarnishing VRs image.

Even Apple couldn’t make it successful with today’s tech. Best case scenario IMO; company’s starting long term VR moonshot projects right now might have something with mainstream appeal in the distant future.

VR won’t be viable until it’s transparent and unobtrusive; a contact lens, for example. A giant headset that you strap on to your face just isn’t appealing to most customers outside of the initial novelty factor.

Devils advocate, not my actual opinion; if you can make a Thing that people will pay to use, easily and without domain specific knowledge, why would you not? It may hit issues at some point but by them you’ve already got ARR and might be able to sell it.

+1, it’s hot garbage and I don’t know why anyone would use it. You’re better off trying to randomly guess the URL of the content your looking for because that’s probably more likely to find it.

FIFO workers often do multiple weeks on, and a week or more off.

If you mass edit, it’ll get restored from older versions - pointless really.

Find your top 20-30 posts and comments and manually edit them. Make them sound real, but at the same time contain complete bullshit. Anyone, or any thing reading them will be misinformed- not by you but by reddit thus making reddit less valuable.

To really be a thorn in reddits side we need to be actively, but subtly malicious.

Sony AI has been a division of SIE for quite a while now. They were training AI to play Gran Tourismo years ago.

Sounds like the PDF, assuming it’s accurate and current, is more reliable.

Why not just ctrl-f the PDF?

What causes, and conducts capitalism if not humans?

After a half hour long conversation with my 63 year old father, I can confirm it’s the instances that’s confusing people.

A big heat sink like they used to put on WD Raptor drives.

Hotmail still exists?

Coding in Ansible?

Where might one find more information on this?
