No, but it is if maintaining affordability is, which is what the rest of us were talking about.

Right, but you had to go out of your way to listen to crackpots in the 90s, now thats just all there is.
I mean, the whole world was better when the internet didn't define the mainstream zeitgeist. And I say this as a person who was on the internet a LOT during that time period. Being separate was the best thing about it.
All the crazy shit you hear now still existed then, its just that no one really cared about unless you wanted to.
Have they ever actually NAMED the supposed "eight wars" that Trump us supposed to have "ended"?
Yes, that has been the conventional wisdom for the last 20 or so years.
There have been multiple points in history where stripping a pre-built for parts was cheaper than buying those parts individually. Honestly, that is probably the case more often than not because they get the parts cheaper.
For real. I know for a fact that Valve can buy hardware for less than any of us can. Its just a question of how much markup they want to slap on this, but it could easily be cheaper than any of us could build an equivalent.
Sure, if you are certain you found one that is current with current availability and pricing and where none of the specific parts have shot up in price relative to their alternatives. I have literally build a dozen PCs over the last 20 years and it would still take me time to make sure I had an optimal build at a reasonable price, even if using someone else's build.
With hardware prices being what they are at the moment, it wouldn't surprise me if these wound up being cheaper than most home-built alternatives.
That's not who lost money here. Those assholes were out LONG before the rug got pulled on the dummies that bought this garbage.
Doubtful. The Greeks celebrated nudity as a tribute to the gods. The Olympics were conducted nude. He is naked for a reason in this story. Its why the statues of these heroes are almost universally depicted in the nude.
It's a more inclusive term because "child predator" and "child rapist" all require some verifiable action on the person's part. Is a person who is sexually attracted to children and just looks at like AI generated CSM not also a pedophile, despite not actually directly harming children?
