This is a topic I'd like to hear about on WAN show.. Amazon is just shutting them down, not even selling to anyone (apparently).

We had overhiring at many tech companies between mid 2020 to early 2022.
This is mostly paring back to where we were in 2020-2021ish. Not doomsday. 

One person holding 5% of the chain sounds decentralized to you?

To me the biggest thing regarding warranties and "trust me bro" is that warranty is covered by company, not by owner at the time of purchase.
What if Linus sells the company tomorrow? Trust me bro is no obligation to new owner.
On a side note which I think has lead to this situation - this monetize everything approach is the main reason why I basically don't watch any LTT videos now. The original plan/promise to publish video every day is biting in the a.. for quite some time since most videos are just useless. Well, if it generates enough views I guess it's all good.

I'd say ambient temps are not a big problem although during summer it can be few degrees more than I'd like.
Regarding A/C question, a lot of houses are not made of paper so they keep cooler during hot times for longer, that includes apartment buildings (e.g. where I live, it takes a really long heat wave to sort of "warm up" the walls and only then it gets bad). Some other practicalities (depends on the location and type of building obviously) - AC takes space, there are some regulations that you cannot just have a box visible from street view, electricity costs at the moment are also going up (this wasn't a factor before though, so not relevant from historical perspective).
What I don't like is that pc can actually be the biggest heat generator so it kind of amplifies the problem during hot weather. At the same time, if it's 30C outside then I'm not gonna be gaming anyway, just go to beach or drink some beer somewhere outside or smth. So I'm not worried but I'll still keep an eye on the temp results when these new CPUs will come out.

Crypto is a scam, NFTs are a scam. They intend to take advantage of people when they sell these things, breaking the law is not important to them.
 
Are these game NFTs even stored within the Blockchain? Bored apes, for example, are stored on a public server, and the NFT itself is just a record of the transaction. That's how I thought most NFTs work

I have roughly 50$ in BTC (some random gpu mining, haven't bought any), I feel pretty confident on my retirement plans.

This was always coming. Screw selfish miners who want to get in front of progress. I hope they get the ice age. We have to make crypto more sustainable and this is great for that.

Hey buddy, this sounds super familiar.
The problem lies within the fact that unless Sales deliver their promises (contract is fulfilled) upper management don't really care how it was achieved. Dolla dolla rolling in. Sales are the true heroes, they sold some bubble wrap stuff with super high profit margin, what else do you want as some VP who's bonus depends on that?
We have projects for triple amount of work this summer and that is considering that no one takes a vacation. Guess what, people take vacations during summer so it is even worse. I'm doing this only to improve my CV and after some of these lunatic projects are completed I'm done. However, the end result will not matter - Sales and leadership team will get bonuses in millions of $ while my team is doing the actual work (and getting peanuts).

I'm mostly tired of having to charge yet another thing every night to use. I wouldn't mind using some of my expensive headphones with my phone too though. I don't mind a dongle as much as others but I'd still be happy with a headphone jack.

that'd be a grand total of zero kids who would do that instead of playing some game. part of school is supposed to be human interaction isn't it? why make kids afraid to raise their hand and ask a question in front of people?

If you build e.g. a 3-4k $ pc does it really matter that much? I wouldn't buy this chip but I bought 7820x from SL and it was worth it to me (4.9 GHz bin).
