They won’t. Latency is a bitch. There is a reason why geforce now is still a niche thing, despite offering a free tier.

- Comment on Xbox as a platform is officially dead 4 months ago:
I’m confused by the pessimistic reactions, though.
Companies converging towards the semi-open platform is a good thing. The locked down hardware and exclusives are not something we as customers asked for. It was something the cartel just shoved down our throats.
What bothers me is the backwards compatibility that microsoft has always just hand-waved in regards to the sunsetting of the xbox HW. A clear yes or no would be nice.

- Comment on I'm sure a good lot of you, like me, had been anticipating/dreading that moment when we say, oh fuck this is it, for real. Like the BIG oh fuck. My question is, how ready are you? 4 months ago:
I was sitting at the neurology office. As the doctor starts to scroll through the pictures of the inside of my head I see a huge blob. Well, this is it, I thought. It’s finally happening…
But then I remembered that scene from the Breaking Bad. These pictures can be decieving if you don’t know how to read them.
“Looks clear” the doctor says. “That thing? Probably just some calcificate…”
But now I know. I’m not ready.

- Comment on If someone tells you that communism has led to famines in the USSR and China, that it doesn't have any incentives and that anyone who supports it use products of capitalism, how do you counter this? 4 months ago:
when you take land from the people
But that’s the main characteristic of communism. The ruling class takes the resources from the people to misallocate them.

- Comment on How are locks and keys mass produced? 4 months ago:
I am still confused. Aren’t locks modular and easily swappable on the other side of the ocean?
This is how they look here. You can just swap it without changing the looks of the door in any way.
