Open post SrGesus @srgesus@mastodon.social · 3mo ago Replying to @nixCraft@mastodon.social The phone expected to start at US $500 for the standard models. There are also higher end editions etc that cost about $640 (Founder's Edition with 24K gold-plated Commodore button and premium finish etc). The price is higher. They need a basic phone model that can allow google maps and uber and I will buy it at lower price. $500 is too much. I just need those two for travel which cheapo phone does the job. @nixCraft@mastodon.social FIVE HUNDRED FOR A FLIP PHONE?!
Open post SrGesus @srgesus@mastodon.social · 2mo ago Replying to @nixCraft@mastodon.social People are called luddites on social media simply because they don't want their water polluted by data centers or the industrial hum generated by AI servers. Imagine asking for the basic human right to drink clean water and be able to sleep at night, only to have that called nonsense or standing against progress. @nixCraft@mastodon.social AI servers don't generate that hum, it's temporary gas turbines

Open post SrGesus @srgesus@mastodon.social · 5mo ago Replying to @nixCraft@mastodon.social the current NASDAQ and S & P 500 bull run is just usual pump and dump by tech bros. If you hold any position be careful, we are heading for another DOT com style bubble crash for sure. the only winning move is not to play. 😅 @nixCraft@mastodon.social winning move is short at the peak and buy at the dip
