I was about to argue with you and toss out a bunch of ad hominems on you, but then I looked it up and by golly you’re right. I’m one of the 10,000 today it seems.

What would be the value of life then? I’ll save you the answer: no matter how big the number you say, someone else will say bigger. Until it becomes priceless, which is the answer.

However death and accidental death isn’t always avoidable. And when we pin the fault on someone we cannot expect to say “priceless” is what they owe the victim’s family. So we assign an amount of money or time that hurts, and call it good.

Doesn’t mean life is worth that. And saying so doesn’t help anyone.

Don’t radarr and sonarr download better versions automatically? Seems these measures were drastic.

Seems like these are all corner cases, straw men, and not every day things. I actually sort of agree with the sentiment about “what does it matter”. But there is one big thing that you missed: stability and trust. If Epic decides to wrap it up one day, you’re done. Steam is less likely to do that since primary business model and profit generator.

Pick the platform with the best deals, and weigh in the stability/trust argument. For me that means using Epic for free weekly games, and Steam whenever they have sales. Almost never buy any other time unless a large group of friends are starting something. FOMO is real.

Why limit to fusion? Ask for the optimal energy production solution, period. Might be something we never thought of.
