Honestly this might be a nice option for those who want to play just one game but are not interested in gaming as a hobby.

For instance, I'd like to play Red Redemption 2 (since I like Western movies) but it would be pointless for me to buy a gaming PC/console just for one game. I think this kind of services are for people like me.

I trmember wanting to become an engineer. Working with technology seemed so cool. Also you got paid a lot. But the math was too hard. I had to drop out.

But now I see a lot of engineers and other tech workers struggling? What the hell. I thought that softwarw engineers were supposed to program AI. Not get replaced by AI?

>only bullshit like delivery.
Who are they delivering to though? How are they paying for goods? What job are they doing? Is the economy all just delivery drivers delivering deliveries to other delivery drivers now?

I know debt levels are increasing at unsustainable rates and there are ads for paypal loans for takeaway meals. But there's only so much debt an un/underemployed consumer can take on surely? Feels like we're on the precipice of a total collapse.
>>
>>107634683
>Feels like we're on the precipice of a total collapse.
That is precisely what these articles want you to think. The truth is that while some people are broke, society on the whole is not teetering on the brink.
Retards have historically always been horrible with their money. I had a lot of exposure growing up through my extended family ("I only have two dollars and it's gotta last us til I get paid on Friday" -> buys a carton of cigarettes every week alongside two 30 racks of bud lite) but these bums always persist on EBT and other shit. Laziness and hedonism pretty much ensures that delivery will survive forever, so many people would rather spend $12 in delivery fees than get in their shitbox car and drive for ten minutes.

As somebody who's lived in real poverty (years of my childhood without running water, gas, or electric - cooking on wood burning stove), I can always tell when I'm looking at performative poverty.

Just like if you grew up in the ghetto you can spot a tourist a mile away.

>Feels like we're on the precipice of a total collapse.
This is absurd. Every 10 years or so the standard of living is ratcheted up substantially. How big of a house you have, what kind of car you have, what kind of bullshit tech you have in your house, what kind of food you can afford to eat regularly.

The simple truth is are standard of living is so high that even the poorest people today live better than any royalty in history. Even the bottom 1% in a western country own iPhones and eat steaks.

>/g/ makes a 19th album
Theme: [Accepting suggestions]

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

Because retards are obsessed with obsolete handheld controllers, VR support in 3D games is lacking and the path towards removing functionality is the most streamlined due to a decade of the forced Xinput meme.
For most 2D games an arcade style controller is optimal and everyone has deluded themselves into thinking that dpads are good, because it has been on so much handheld Nintendo ewaste.
For most 3D games a mouse and keyboard would be optimal, but support for optimal control configuration is generally lacking. VR has potential, but there is a limit to what mods can do.

I look forward to the Steam controller 2, mostly just to fuck with it.

Any version of Windows since 1995 has been more polished, production-ready and user-friendly than any Linux distro ever made. That's obvious to anybody who has installed both of them on the same machine.
