Nuclear weapons are much much worse, I'm not trying to argue that.
But something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_Without_a_Summer would be devastating, if I read it right - Tonga might have been related too (there was a "mystery eruption" somewhere in the pacific).
There's lots of of places around the world where paying for some streaming is not viable (even less so for multiple services). Same goes for stuff like video games.
I myself grew up in the post-soviet baltics and around the time when when I got more into gaming - my monthly income was around 400 and new games were around 60.
When Steam (and it's sales), Humble Bundle, GOG became more of a thing and my income increased - I just sort of stopped pirating games. It was definitely more convenient to get something on e.g. Steam than pirate it and jump through hoops to get the cracks working.
When Netflix first became available - I started using that. It seemed worth paying even for limited library. But there were lots of things that was impossible to get any other way than pirating.
As I stopped watching movies/tv shows - I stopped paying for Netflix. I don't thing I'd be willing to pay for multiple streaming services.
My current (largely overpriced) media of choice is audiobooks.
Everybody needs to calm down a bit. Poland has reasonable labour laws afaik. Overtime is paid and there are limits on the max hours of overtime.
And I don't know if its the same in Poland, but here in neighbouring Lithuania - employer can't really "force" you to do overtime, one has to agree to it.
I get that overtime sucks, but it's not unpaid US-like overtime in this case.
The only way to rationalize this terrible broken promise to employees is by comparing it to a country renown for its bad labour practices. It’s terrible. Plain and simple. Even if the US is worst than that.
I've just given up trying to make it work with Radeon RX 580 under linux (and I'm unlikely to waste any more electricity by running it on my windows box).
I tried amdgpu-pro - opencl was there but folding@home refused to even detect it.
I tried rocm - same nonsense.
Would one simply stop if one were to encounter a intersection that has flesh-and-bones policeman directing traffic (like 'hey there's a meatbag on the road better stop')?
There are groups of people who e.g. 3D print drone parts, along with all the "posturing".
From my own experience - it is quite easy to go through more than $500 of money in filament alone.
