There were many bad translations, and many purposefully bad ones.
Is it easier to exert control over a population with eternal damnation or proportional punishment?

725 million actually. I think it is almost double the next expensive game.
They are trying to do something on a never-before scale, but the company seems to have been run like complete shit.
They better get great overtime pay or be able to take like 2 weeks extra paid holiday after this bullshit, but I would guess not.
"DOJ is corrupt but also police can do no wrong, let's give them tanks, until they are forced to be against our riots and then they are bad again, but only until we start saying that the riots weren't us and was the deep state actors, then they never did anything wrong"
They were, before Reagan intentionally fucked it all up in his crusade of feces
At that point, you might as well get Mealie.
Lol right? only people who don't know how to cook think beans and lentils tastes bad.
Lentils: boil in water or broth with paprika, pepper, bay leaf, and add salt half way through. 15in for red lentils, 20-25 for green.
Beans are extremely versatile and can go in almost anything, for sure chickpeas can be cheap as hell protein for all sorts of dishes around the world if you don't want to spring the rising costs for meat. They are dirt cheap canned and can be even cheaper dry and just need to be soaked then cooked.
People are saying "it's all the electric cars and batteries..."
Yeah my VW ID4 which is a pretty decent sized electric car is 2003kg. You are looking at giant electric SUVs or electric trucks to get over that 3175kg. Even the cybertruck is only 3k and that is just a giant chunk of steel and battery. They must be including hauling weight in that...
Because it is easy.
That is it. It is easy and cheap to make cars connected because of abysmal lack of regulation and the massive IoT chip industry
Integrating wireless radios into products is standard by now and chips required to do anything but 5g are extremely cheap. GPS is also dirt cheap. The biggest costs by far are design hours and certification.
Then they can make money because of the software "features" that only take man hours to develop as well as sell your tracking days after the fact. Together with the fact that if the market says that most people want those convenience features and couldn't care less about their valuable data as we have seen through every tech industry, there is little reason NOT to put in those features, especially when it enables OTA car firmware updates also.
These are your options for your requirements:
Pretty much the 6800XT at a good price or a 6800. That is about it. A770 is good if you don't play any older (like pre 2012) games and don't mind some things breaking sometimes.
Maybe a 3070 16 gb version if you really really really need CUDA.
That specific price bracket and specs are sparse
If the game requires online features by design, then the company does have the responsibility to keep that online.
If you don't want to support a game for 5-10 years with online services, don't make a game that relies on online services. It ilreally is that simple.
Don't put always online DRM (if hitman servers go down, nobody can play the fully single-player game. Absolutely 0 reason to connect to the internet).
Don't put online DLC verification. Use a damn code/binary file that steam can distribute theough the store.
if you have a multiplayer game, put an option for self-hosted game servers and LAN. Battefront 2 original is literally still going for 18 years because they were not dumbasses and made a good game with good features and custom server capability
It really is extremely simple to not be a corrupt, money-grubbing piece of shit corpo.
Lens is the one thing I still use from Microsoft. None of the competition works nearly as well for b&w/greyscale plus angle correction and multiple PDF pages.
On top of that it is completely local, doesn't make you sign into an account, doesn't ask for location access, and doesn't phone home (at least what I have been able to see).
The only thing that Microsoft makes that I will choose over open source alternatives. Knock on wood that they don't change it.
I don't think I will buy another Nintendo console ever (unless they turn around) and will only buy 2nd hand games so Nintendo doesn't get any money.
The sad thing is that Nintendo does make very good games and some of the only great party games left with a low skill entry level
