This is exactly it. The Muskrats, Benzos, and Zuccs of the world want people to think that the future is only on the cloud, because it benefits their business.
The problem with that is that most people are tech illiterate, and will see the cloud as an easy way to just exist with less wires.
Reading comments from people who just do not care whether they own their software, and now hardware, is alarming.
It’s people like us who have to be loud about it.
I’d rather just pay it once and have it.
Like video games. Just let me pay money for the whole game.
Surprised it didn’t happen sooner.
And on that note, I would absolutely download a car.
Only thing is he is very aware of this and has since stopped posting content like that, nearly a decade ago, and has removed any of it from his channel, and never talks about it.
He went overboard, seemingly realized his screw up, and stopped with the gun crap. I wouldn’t be following him if he was still posting the gun stuff, but that was even before I found him in 2017.
Unlike a lot of those kind of gun people, he at least seems self aware. Again, this is only since I’ve started watching his content in 2017. No idea how had it was prior to that.
I thought VR would be more widespread by now.
And it’s probably because of the two next things I thought as well.
I thought it would be cheaper and easier to do by now. More like a Google Glass kind of thing. But we’re still playing 4 figures for dedicated massive headsets to strap to our heads. No wonder it didn’t take off.
And I mean dedicated like the HTC Vive. Not the Quest.
And on that note, the Commodore X16 from The 8 Bit Guy is built from the ashes of what would have been a C64 successor, post 128. Documentation available is extensive. Of course, it doesn’t ship with a spiral bound manual, so I guess it doesn’t even apply, but, ya know. It’s a cool little thing to tinker with.
Do they… do they know what the C in CES stands for?
Yep, the first thing I did on the day the E-Shop closed was I backed up my NAND.
This was my issue. The two times I posted real, actual questions that I needed help with, and tried to provide as much detail as possible while saying I didn’t understand the subject,
I got clowned on, immediately downvoted negative, and got no actual help whatsoever. Now I just hope someone else had a similar issue.
You should. Now is the time before they go up in price like everything else. Great little thing for emulation, along with the 3DS. And it has some great games, if you don’t have a Switch. Even if you do have a Switch, there are a few still left on the U.
Right after I learn about how much of a failure Copilot has been, and they do this. I’m not surprised, but man.
Fuck the rest of the admins too while we’re at it.
