  • Gabe Newell caps off Steam Machine week by taking delivery of a new $500 million superyacht with a submarine garage, on-board hospital and 15 gaming PCs

    Jump

  • Yeah, I recall a Ramsey poll where the fourth highest profession for millionaires is teaching.

    Learning from others and following a plan is how one becomes a millionaire. Teachers have those critical skills down.

  • US aircraft carrier arrives in the Caribbean in major buildup near Venezuela

    Jump

  • Depends on what the deployment is, if it is just airstrikes or even limited ground operations to break a few things and leave, no reason for it to be a forever war.

    Note: I have made zero statements about that being something I would support.

  • Americans with six-figure incomes are in 'survival mode'

    Jump

  • The person I replied to should not label those people the enemy then. As I said, he is painting with much too wide of a brush.

  • Americans with six-figure incomes are in 'survival mode'

    Jump

  • Median household income in Colorado Springs is $83k/yr. Said 3 bedroom home for $265k is quite affordable on $83k/yr.

    unless you have a fully remote job

    And if this is the case, you are doing even better and have a shitload more options.

  • Americans with six-figure incomes are in 'survival mode'

    Jump

  • you have to choose more slum-y areas

    Here is a random home I found after only a few seconds of looking. 3 bedroom home in Colorado Springs for $265k. Easily affordable at the stated $100k/yr income.

    You can’t afford to buy a single family home on $100k/yr in my area.

    you have to choose more slum-y areas

    Lots of homes are easily affordable with that income. Buy elsewhere.

  • Americans with six-figure incomes are in 'survival mode'

    Jump

  • Those who live off property (aka others’ labour) are.

    This is everyone with a 401(k) for retirement. Ie, what they will be loving off of. Not sure why you are labeling the vast majority of people the enemy…

    Hell, since you are including 'other's labour', then this would also include anyone living off Social Security, a pension, disability, etc. All of that money comes from other's labour.

    Your brush is way, way, way too broad. You have marked almost everyone the enemy at some point in their lives.

  • How do you respond to unwanted advice?

    Jump

  • from a, a coworker and b, a manager

    A coworker and a manager at your company gave you advice about your job?

    If that is the case, you should take it seriously. Make sure you know why they think their suggestion is better than what you are doing. You don't know everything, there is a darn good chance they are trying to make you better at your job.

    If it isn't about your job, you should still make sure you know why they think their suggestion is better than what you are doing. Other people do know things you don't.

  • Hands-On with Steam Machine: Valve's New PC/Console Hybrid

    Jump

  • With the SteamDeck as the dominate PC gaming handheld and XBOX in a dire state right now, these will almost certainly do much better than the last attempt.

  • Flathub Flatpak installation on Linux Mint

    Jump

  • Option 1: When you go to their website for the flathub link, it takes you to a download for a .flatpakref file. Dowload that and run it. It will open the Software Manager to the gopher64 entry. If it isn't opening with the software manager for some reason, tell it to open .flatpakref files with the Software Manager.

    Option 2: Search for gopher64 in the Software Manager.

  • Pentagon’s largest warship enters Latin American waters as US tensions with Venezuela rise

    Jump

  • Gotta wonder what just parking all these gas guzzlers on the south side of the Equator is costing us.

    This is a really weird criticism in an article about a nuclear-powered carrier.

  • How likely do you think game streaming as DRM is to become a thing?

    Jump

  • Yeah, Steam in-home-streaming is great and is something I have used on many an occasion.

    Game streaming over the internet is simply miserable.

  • How likely do you think game streaming as DRM is to become a thing?

    Jump

  • Customers have roundly rejected game streaming. If streaming is the only way to play a game, that game will see a colossal hit in sales. This won't be acceptable to companies trying to make money.

  • The Linux Kernel Looks To "Bite The Bullet" In Enabling Microsoft C Extensions

    Jump

  • Pedant thought: The thumbnail shows one biting everywhere but the bullet.

  • God ****** dammit, here we go again

    Jump

  • I'm a big fan of the Keep It Simple (KISS) approach, and went with Password Safe. Works on Linux, Windows, MacOS, iOS, and Android. It's big thing is it just makes an encrypted password file which then you can sync between devices however you like (Box, Dropbox, etc)

    Which one works on all browsers including mobile safari and mobile Firefox?

    It has an auto-type and copy feature, so no need for browser support. Though, the main criticism of this offering is if you want a ton of features and don't care about KISS.

  • This French highway fast charges electric vehicles at 300kW – and it could be the future of wireless EV transport

    Jump

  • These strike me as a much better plan than in-road wireless.

    Though, I wonder what the durability of these are compared to the same you see in cities for trams. Big difference for those is the speed. Would they get worn away too fast? Can they economically make the cables extra thick/hard to compensate?

  • God ****** dammit, here we go again

    Jump

  • Protip for the room: Use a password manager with a unique password for every service. Then when one leaks, it only affects that singular service, not large swaths of your digital life.

  • This French highway fast charges electric vehicles at 300kW – and it could be the future of wireless EV transport

    Jump

  • Wireless charging wastes a ton of power. Roads also get beat to hell.

    I really don’t see this being practical.

  • Zohran Mamdani is pushing for New York City-run grocery stores. Here's what he envisions.

    Jump

  • Kroger is a public company, the presented numbers are their financials. Everything you mention is part of how they squeeze out a measly 1.5% profit margin. There isn’t much to cut for the private store or the government store.
