Yea, I think the limits are going to top out around that 300Hz mark, it’s going to be really hard to convince people they can see or feel a difference between 300Hz and 480Hz. I have no preference between 240Hz and 300Hz already.

For computer monitors, I also wouldn’t be surprised if we top out at 4k for regular consumers, with a few niche 8k products available.

The simple answer is that the government teams who assess them can’t know the exact market value unless the home they’re assessing sells on the date that their assessment is meant to be for. There’s no other way to obtain the market value other than selling the actual house.

What someone lists a home for is not the market value, what someone bought the home for 6 months ago is not the market value, and about a hundred other things from renos to rezoning to even a murder can change the market value of a property overnight.

So these teams use a “good enough” approach which statistically analyze based on property size, location, age, known building information, etc. and then combine this with historical sales data to try to get a decent number so that property taxes can be applied reasonably fairly.

Valve is one of the profitable companies in tech, it ain’t going anywhere.

Just use bigscreen VR.

It’s been out for years, and works great for this.

This is not good.

When the math starts not mathing properly, there are usually real problems.

Duh…

Fucking good.

The train is for city folk to get between cities, rural folk can’t afford it.

You really don’t understand how “dirt poor” in America is still better than “dirt poor” in China.

Dirt poor in China literally means a dirt floor, and often dirt walls. Not dirty, but actual floors and walls made of hardened mud. No running water, no electricity, and backbreaking labour to scrape together enough rice to survive on.

Even a lot of employed Chinese people have it bad, there’s a term they use called 996 in China. 9am to 9pm, 6 days a week. It’s technically illegal but is a widespread practice for employers in China. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/996_working_hour_system

Even homeless people in NA have it easier than millions of these workers.

Their middle class is one of the fastest growing in the world simply because so many people are still in poverty.

They have 140 million people (around 10%) that don’t even have access to clean water, and about 20% that don’t have access (any access) to the internet.

Even if you take into account PPP (Purchasing Power Parity) Chinese citizens, the median Chinese family is FAR worse off than the Median American.

The point I’m trying to make is in relation to the original comment that stated that both countries suck equally.

They do not suck equally, and it’s not even close.

You can google these things yourself if you wanted.

About 90% of the Chinese population has access to clean water, which means around 140 million people still do not, and that’s by China’s own reported numbers and standards. It’s probably worse than that in reality.

There are more Chinese people without access to the internet than the total US population, About 77% have access, and that metric does not measure households with internet, it’s just people who have ANY access, including using a cheap phone only at public WIFI locations.

Of course there’s a big difference based on location, some cities on the coasts are exceptionally wealthy compared to rural inland areas.

There’s a train in Belgium with an open hole for the bathroom? What year was this in?

How does that make it any better that the Chinese government lets it happen?

It can be true. There are more Chinese people living on less than $10 per day than there are total Americans.

There are more Chinese people living on less than $10 per day than total Americans.

The median household income is close to 1/10th of the US amount.

The US poverty situation simply cannot compare.

Then you have successfully fallen for china’s propaganda.

Living and working conditions in China for most citizens are horrific, far beyond even the worst problems we see in the US.
