Not someone who has that kind of money, but people who have enough money to want it perpetually invested and growing (so they can periodically withdraw from it without impacting the base fund), throw it into an index or money market fund like those provided by the big 3 (Vanguard, Blackrock, State Street).

Although you will still need a bank regardless in your life for things like checking accounts and credit cards.

Reusing beats recycling! :)

From experience: craigslist, government auction websites (if relevant), and eBay.

You could also just go to your local e-waste center and try your luck.

Actually, usually hardware is dumped onto the used market or to recycling facilities due to the cost of disposal if they performed it themselves.

So rather than a lack of profit, this would be considered a removed expense (handling decommissioned hardware). Definitely keep an eye out for these! :)

waitaminute… this is like event 5 or so in the Fallout timeline.

Damn, did Christopher Taylor know the whole time?

Building out your plan B for another platform, tbh.

Only gonna get worse from here! :)

I believe it’s just complexity and token/compute usage.

You end up chasing diminishing returns as well (100% or even 95% accuracy is just not possible for certain areas of study, especially for niche topics).

It’s also 100% unfixable as a premise for the technology. I can enjoy an upscaling algorithm for my retro games to look more detailed at the cost of an odd artifact, but I sure as shit am not taking that risk for information gathering and general study.

As an American citizen, I can tell you that the current administration’s actions are completely divorced from public consensus and desire for war. The unfortunate reality is that our representation at the federal level is so diluted and insignificant that no amount of public polling would change the administration’s mind (and as a matter of personal opinion, I think the midterms may not be able to course correct the ship either at this point). You only need to look at the impunity of ICE’s actions as a simple frame of reference.

Granted, I am a college educated person in a more “left leaning” state of the country, and have enough research and context about this situation to know that these actions are not rational nor beneficial for our geopolitical or national interests. That isn’t the case for the majority of the nation, unfortunately.

There are plenty of people who are able to be influenced, either through well-funded media campaigns or with the allure of being able to benefit from the situation (such as those who work for the military industrial complex and the AI companies who will have a field day selling lethal autonomous software to the DoD). Many will be more than happy to turn a blind eye to the suffering that will be borne by the soldiers involved, the civilians involved, and international disruptions to trade and stability for personal gain or blissful ignorance.

Even for those who have a sense of compassion for their fellow human beings, there’s simply a lot on their plate that pulls their attention away from the war. Those who can afford to be politically active have little incentive to do so, and those who would like to see deescalation cannot afford to be politically active.

I completely empathize with those who do not side with this current war of aggression. Just keep in mind that “siding with America” in this context is with the Federal Government and perhaps a portion of Congress, not with the average citizen or even a majority of US states. If Pacifica/Cascadia became an option for us west coasters, it might be worth taking nowadays.

The soviet invasion of Afghanistan was also the outcome of a short sighted decision from a dying old man.

History rhymes, I suppose.

Librewolf doesn’t have an android port, full stop. If you want a Librewolf style fork on android use something like Ironfox.

I am not certain if Waterfox has a port on android, though.

RUST has a pretty fun “minigame” where you have to connect certain points with each axe chop/chainsaw cut to quickly fall the tree, always wondered why that hasn’t been poached for other games.

I’d say it’s more of a dedicated following that just isn’t viral. Keep in mind crossplay means that the steam charts aren’t an accurate barometer by themselves.

This right here - plenty of good android phones out there that don’t need contract financing.

Especially now that Motorola is gonna partner with GrapheneOS.

If Apple didn’t keep treating smaller developers like shit, maybe you would have more options for applications that respected your privacy and weren’t as monetized.

Consider moving away from the abusive platform and then your options for privacy and security will expand. Maybe look for a phone with GrapheneOS support (previously only Pixels, but Motorola models will come with support soon) for complete control and customization.

Most of the devs from the Bad Company era left EA to form Embark Studios - maybe check out their games like The Finals?

GrapheneOS hardware requirements, for starters.
