Zucc is just preparing for his inevitable fall from grace and divorce. He won't need to worry about losing everything when he's already built a perfect copy of his life in the metaverse.

If you add up all of the video games on Wikipedia's most expensive games ever developed at inflation adjusted numbers including disputed and unfinished games...you're under 6 billion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most_expensive_video_games_to_develop The wright brothers and the us military spent less than 2 million dollars in inflation adjusted dollars inventing the airplane. The entire Apollo space program cost 25.8 billion dollars. Leviathan Song has issued a correction as of 13:48 on Oct 14, 2022 |

The Wright brothers did about a man week worth of carpentry so yeah drat straight that didn't cost anything. The rice cooker in your kitchen is more complex a product than the Wright Flyer by orders of magnitude.

It's not rounding off corners. An automatic rice cooker is an electrical heating element and a temperature sensor. When the water boils off it stops cooling the bottom of the pot through evaporation, the temperature increases, the heating element shuts off. You can buy fancier ones with some timer functions and things but you can also buy a toaster than senses the doneness of bread by sensing the change in color of the toast.

Going from rocks in the ground to the chip that controls that cooker requires a global logistics network and refinement and production steps that didn't even exist back then. The wright flyer is, exaggerating a bit, just barely outside what a single medieval village's craftsmen can produce if you give them the plans.

For cheap or old rice cookers you don't need a chip at all, just a strip of fancy metal and a contact  (TC watchers rule!)

The wright flyer is, exaggerating a bit, just barely outside what a single medieval village's craftsmen can produce if you give them the plans. You're exaggerating so much as to destroy the point. The Wright Flyer's engine had an aluminum crankcase to make it light enough to fly, no one could make that with medieval technology. But then, the Wright brothers could have made a working airplane out of gold for less money than Facebook has allegedly spent developing Meta.

i have a ricecooker. a big tiger one. it has way too many functions. i never use them. gently caress em. however the one good function it has works fine. it'd be cooler if it was one with a more robust, single-function mechanism instead of the simulacrated everything-goes-on-a-chip, too-many-functions-having, needs-an-advanced-material-extraction-refining-and-fabrication-industry mechanism it and most modern ricecookers have. i think you can still buy those. or make them. a ricecooker doesn't need a chip to cook rice the way it does with a chip. not that I think you were the one making this argument, but a ricecooker being one of the modern day conviences that relies on integrated circuits is one of the few examples you could try to use and be wrong.
