The amount of times the shit breaks down combined with the slower speeds means it doesn’t really matter if they work 24/7 right now.

Yes, robots are coming, but amazon has been acting like they will be here tomorrow since it’s inception.

The reality is robots that cost less than people that at least do comparable work in the same time frame is still a decade or 2 away optimistically.

Amazon trying to force it doesn’t change that.

Amazon is to robots what meta is to vr. Dumping tons of money trying to force the ‘future’ today.

It’s such a joke. Amazon is so desperate for automation, but is too stupidly arrogant to realize the tech really isn’t there yet.

I work at a amazon facility with robots and management does everything in their power to keep me away from them because I can outwork the bots without breaking a sweat.

I think it was maybe last week or the week before there was a thread about plex enshitification and I recall a lot of downvotes to folks praising/recommending jellyfin over plex.

Too greedy. They want all the money so bad they will believe any conman.

Yeah, I had/have problems with Jellyfin transcoding too.

Basically transcoding things that didn’t need it and wouldn’t transcode things that did need it.

This dude is awesome.

Only a small subset of folks want to live in a condo.

Also its a fucking condo.

Sounds like a shitty theme park.

Just like I never called french fries freedom fries, I will never call the gulf of mexico the gulf of america

They’re trying to eat their cake and have it too.

In the past couple years, I’ve gone from buying exclusively from steam to prioritizing buying/rebuying single player games from GOG.

Multiplayer games are still mostly through steam for convenience - same with VR games/games with VR mods.

I just wish GOG Galaxy was better. Development seems kinda stagnant.

I constantly have issues with the plugins to access other storefront libraries among other things.

A lot (if not most) of vr games can be played seated though.

Sure you might technically still be moving around but it’s easy enough on you that most people - even grandma, could play.

So I don’t see that as a barrier to mainstream.

I think they meant like theyd still give em a ps5 it just wouldn’t have been in the box on camera.

I feel like this would do the opposite.

You mean my mad gaming skillz will get me specially picked to ‘save’ Ukraine?

I mean Last Starfighter much?

Any disposable I’ve bought that doesnt have a recharge port the battery was dead with at least 20% ejuice remaining.

No it doesn’t, at least not everwhere.

If you wanna be an idoitic asshat, and get all pissy because someone points out a flaw in your argument, thats not my problem.

“Don’t buy games with invasive user-side anti-cheats that hamper performance, and demand refunds on any game…”

1st point: AC Wasn’t there at purchase

2nd point: AC was added decades later so how can one return the game?

It’s just like every other ‘sandbox’ game out there.

About the only substance is in the early game. Then there isnt much to do but grind out a checklist to collect everything.

It gets repetitive too fast.

Because there arent proper checks and balances.

So just like the corporate world and the us government the shitbags get in power and do whatever the hell they want with little to no repercussions.

The teamsters just went through that for years with that shitbag Hoffa jr. He just let the companies do pratically whatever they wanted.

Then you got stewards and shit who dont wanna do anything.

I didnt know any union reps/stewards until I went to managment.

Basically they only care about collecting dues and increasing their numbers.

They union doesn’t ‘demand’ anything beyond paying dues from its members so you’ve got tons of people who really think they can act however they want.

Complete lack of any sort of rules of conduct and no work ethic.
