But they still serve a purpose if they are employing many- as long as they keep it close to breakeven.

@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus @protecttruth

I think uber isnt a drain because all the small businesses that use it (uber drivers) are very profitable@ so if you add up all tbose profits and subtract Uber's losses you get a very profitable ecosystem.

@johnserwach @plutus @protecttruth @ForeignSubstance

If I was an employee of uber. Uber would be getting those profits and I would be paid 18 dollars an hour plus tips instead of 40 dollars an hour

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @protecttruth @rubecube12

So you agree, it’s not REALLY a zero sum game ?

Still beautiful-by the way-

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach @protecttruth

Its a zero sum game, but you weren't counting its components. It has to raise prices on drivers to break even. Meaning my profits are inflated by its losses. So it is a zero sum game.

@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @protecttruth @plutus

if it made money it would be growing the pie. Profitability = society's recognition of usefulness. Unprofitable businesses are not useful they dont make profit. They are not of service and there is no benefit derrived

@ForeignSubstance @protecttruth @plutus @rubecube12

Except you spend the money somewhere else- so indirectly you are growing the pie via Uber- if Uber ceases to exist you will then be shrinking the pie.

So, to test Elon I created another Twitter account and I already got it suspended!! Wtf - free speech my ass! #nazi

@protecttruth @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @plutus

To get out or to get suspended ?

@rubecube12 @plutus @protecttruth @ForeignSubstance

I think this got me suspended

@rubecube12 @plutus @protecttruth @ForeignSubstance

And then I took a Turing test to get unsuspended

This is the kind of weird shite Millenials are into nowadays. Check Danny's closet

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @plutus @protecttruth we’ve seen his closet, he had like three pairs of Addidas and ten identical shirts 😂😂

@plutus @protecttruth @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

Boomers too concerned with image and not results

@protecttruth @plutus @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance

Possibly, but I like to look good😂

@protecttruth @plutus @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 and yet, it wasn’t that long ago Al gore was elected Senator there.
@johnserwach @protecttruth @plutus @rubecube12 So what do we think, guys?
@plutus @ForeignSubstance @protecttruth @rubecube12 you’re ready for league of legends 😂taking full advantage of PCIe 4.0

@johnserwach @plutus @protecttruth @rubecube12 Am I doing something wrong here? The main NVMe drive, two other Sata SSDs (one about 4 yrs old, the other about 1), mounted fine internally.

Two Samsung T7s mounted via fast USB in the rear.

All fine. But I want to use CrystalDiskInfo to analyze a 10 yr old SSD. Sata to USB adapter cable. System doesn't see it. I think the disk is still good, but yeah, old.

@johnserwach @protecttruth @rubecube12 @plutus This one is just sata to usb-A, which ought to be okay for a 10-yr-old device?

@ForeignSubstance @protecttruth @rubecube12 @plutus

Some adapter will need 3.0 Port or two USB ports in order to reach the required voltage. I’m assuming that would be a 3.0 port but not necessarily if it’s in an obscure spot, should be able to tell in control panel.

@johnserwach @protecttruth @rubecube12 @plutus Same adapter, same port, read newer disks fine.

Could be the disk has finally died?

@johnserwach I suppose the older gear could require more juice?

@ForeignSubstance

Don’t you have a sata cable in the box you can connect it to just check ? If you know it’s good you can transfer the porn off that one later 😉

@johnserwach You know, I have plenty of POWER sata cables, but I'm fresh out of data connectors at the moment. 😂
@johnserwach Thanks. Now I'm curious. I didn't think I had any usb 2 at all on this box. I will have to recheck.
@johnserwach FWIW, the connectors on the front of the case are blue ... so *supposed* to be 3.0, right?
@ForeignSubstance yeah I guess white are 1.0, black 2.9, blue 3.0
@johnserwach
Supposed to be. 😂
