it would be perfect if the downloadable PSN catalogue was complete, but there are so many games that are available disc only or can’t be downloaded directly from the PS3 itself, so you need to bring games from your pc to your ps3.

the problem is that if you get movies elsewhere than torrents, adding movies to radarr after the fact is a pain in the ass. I want a “download landing folder”, no matter the type of media or source, legal, illegal, documents, etc. and I want my computer to automatically manage everything for me

What I was just trying to say smart idea = hard to realize idea. Whether you have money or not. Clearly money helps.

That’s just dingeneous and completely disregarding how things actually work. Did he clean the bathrooms? Of course not. But he did coordinate his team of workers by creating other teams of worker where at the end there were people who coded and shipped everything. If you think that would be easy to do you have a rude awakening waiting for you lmao.

I mean to say, that it is probably the hardest or among the hardest roles.

Minimum wage jobs aren’t easy, but becoming a successful doctor or engineer or attorney is so much harder, but I guess that thought wouldn’t fit in your mind

Being in charge of a team is literally the hardest part of the job.

Well, almost nothing would be. Yours is a NONargument because it completely kills the discourse. But that’s beside the point. Some billionares do work hard because they happened across a smart idea and they were able to make it flourish.

Not saying that Bezos in 2023 deserves all the money he has because I dislike Amazon, but you still can’t deny that it was an idea that changed in just a decade the entire way a society thinks about shopping.

I love the fact that he does not only speak of gaming piracy, but of general piracy in general. He talks about culture, and it’s true, lack of culture is used to control the masses

I guarantee that if you’re here, you’re very likely to be extremely tech knowledgeable (compared to the large populace)

a phone needs to be able to make calls and send or receive sms…

Eh, there’s always something people with a lot of tech knowledge think are obvious to people without a lot of tech knowledge. Just look at the mess that Linux can be.

If I understand correctly, this thing turns your phone into a computer. But I need a phone…

To add to that, Maperitive is a fantastic piece of software (Windows only) to create your own custom maps for hiking or cycling with osm. A bit tough to wrap your head around unfortunately, but actually pretty powerful. Hmu if you need quick instructions

there could be a way maybe, by freezing water while keeping it extremely pressurized (extremely), you can make “efficient ice” that occupies less space, called ice VII, I’m not kidding. It would cost literally billions of dollars so not yet feasible, but it keeps my sci-fi loving mind at ease.

I understand that, but it can’t actually be literally true. Wherever you live, even if it’s the literal belly button of the world, you won’t notice what all people that pass through your town or live in your town have in common until you go outside and see what living without that thing you have in common is like. And thanks to that, you’ll get a deeper appreciation of what makes your town your home.

It’s not like tech: once you see a new technology at the store you won’t want to go back to your own crappy technology at home. It’s more like reading a book in the same genre, it will only make you appreciate what you love about your favourite more.

You don’t have to go far to have a nice trip somewhere. You could literally go on foot. Yeah some people do it just for the 'gram, but actually, meeting new different cultures always is a very enriching experience. Putting yourself into unusual situations is a very enriching experience. Don’t miss out on this pleasure in life.

I mean, it IS their own game. Let’s not be disingenuous, they would be doing the same even if it was Steam data.

I think this is a too much pessimistic point of view. People with difficulties will be people with difficulties, but the fact is that the boomers actually are a little incompetent at it, simply hecause they had to deal with many more pressing things. They wouldn’t be stupid to learn as much as your average person wouldn’t be, they’re just understandably lazy. I too am lazy, so I’ll never cook as well as my grandma.

Look, I agree, but let’s not kid ourselves on our experience not being shitty too 🤣. We’re capable of using it only because we’re really good at computers, but there are literally millions of people who don’t even know or care about knowing how to change desktop background
