Comment Total control over digital life (Score 1) 31

So if everything digital that holds value is a security and our future life will be increasingly digital. All our future possessions will be a security. The SEC as an extension of the state demands total control over all of this. Your life will not be your own, everything you have can be disowned by a press of a button. For sure our governments in their ultimate wisdom will never abuse such power /s.

Comment Rent seeking (Score 1) 243

The boomer generation is rent seeking to next generation. What they go for free from their parents because the second world war wiped the slate clean. The next generation now has to pay double. I would like to see the total fraction of the whole cost of building something that is rent (all the way through the value chain). It is probably 80%. All freeloaders, not returning what was given to them.

Comment Prices and availability (Score 1) 128

Almost no GPU hardware available here. What is going on. Prices are sky high for most components. Rather than compete they lower production, boasting to investors how high the prices are. I stick to the stuff I have. I was looking for things to normalize after the Covid supply disruption. If not well, I will buy once it breaks. So maybe never.

Comment Torture (Score 2) 255

Companies just like looking what they can get away with. Most managers just get a sadistic pleasure from it. Don't work for a company. I checked out long ago from going anywhere near these toxic environments. Maybe this is why they can not find any good people. People with self respect and half a brain will just not show up for such a futile exercise. It's obvious from corona that when everybody got used to work from home, nobody wanted to come back. Managers were in panic, how could they satisfy the insatiable need for control and oppression. They had a hard time ignoring the increase in productivity and improvement in work life balance. Hell almost nobody needs to be in rush hour traffic. But it seems everybody is back. Because how could you let anybody get away with a good life. It is the managers job to make you suffer.
