>Need to buy a new flatscreen TV$150. Will last me 15 years of use.>Need to buy groceries from Costco$200. Will last me a month.Capitalism has stopped innovating. Capitalism has stopped creating new luxury goods to entice you with. Capitalism is no longer trying to make life better with new products that turn a reasonable product.People aren’t buying new iPhones every year anymore. They’re not checking the Brookstone catalog to find out what new, fun gizmo they want. The massage chair or the foot bath or the robot monkey? Hmm…No, now they just turn the screws on the things you literally have to buy if you don’t want to die/be murdered by the government:>Gasoline>Food>Healthcare>Rent>Mortgages>InsuranceThe only explanation for this I can think of is that the consoomer economy is just dead, so all the money has to be made by gouging auto insurance and other shit that the government will literally arrest you for not buying.
>>544131510there's a ton of innovation going on here. it's just the analytics they're collecting in the newer models aren't for your benefit.
>>544131510the electric jew is only $150 because they admitted just this month that your "smart" tv spies on you even when its turned offhttps://www.theverge.com/tech/991190/lg-tv-spying-standby-recording-wi-fi-scanning-gamers-nexus
>>544131510>$150. Will last me 15 years of use.I hope you don't watch TV much. You get a tv for that price but It's a shit panel and most likely full of spyware (not that the expensive tv are not)
>>544131510GPU prices would be similar if cryptokikes weren't scalping every single one to "mine" their dumb little imaginary coins.
>>544131510I spend like 2k on "luxuries" or "fun" per year. The rest of my money goes to what you stated and retirement accounts.This is why zoomers are becoming disillusioned with capitalism. It has failed for the young to benefit the old. It should be the other way around.
>>544131510that tv is worse than my va panel monitor. if you unironically watch something on that you are a pleb
>>544135410Are you a bot that woke up after a 3 year coma? No one mines bitcoin or eth anymore.
>>544131510Capitalism only works when everyone has a similar easiness to access the market. During late stages of capitalism (and all civilisations in the past), capital is hoarded at the top, essentially stopping innovation until the next great equaliser event happens again. You can call it a reset, but if we go by what historians believe, there’s usually a large dark age (talking in the couple of hundreds of years or more) before things start to look normal.
>>544136309Sorry I'm not a cryptokike so I don't keep up with cryptokike news. So how do cryptokikes make their cryptocoins nowadays?
>>544136618Either by rugpulling, or holding and trading btc, eth. That's the only way to make real money. All the cryptokikes that spent on digital art nft bs or memecoins nonsense have lost billions.
>>544135410GPUs are expensive because of the memory shortage, mining stopped being profitable years ago.
>>544136800>real money
>>544136867>memory shortageNo such thing. Crytocurrency and its consequences have been a disaster for the GPU market.
>>544136957Fair
>>544131510We all noticed when videogames stagnated
