Somehow I see a priest vampire sucking this guy's blood.

Well, it is a bit like a gold vs. silver medal comparison.

A spot in the champions league is plain better than X spots in Europe league.

I want some belfry gargoyles on this roof.

Or an DS Mod with lots of solar panels on all the roofs.

Are you Charlie Sheen?

Usually he goes up in numbers. Your order seems out of place.

Which money rank was that on?

Technically the mug is now a donut with 2 holes.

Sure, it has been also at top. But they definitely put on a good markup for their name and you have to look what else one pays money for to be part of apple.

Looking alone for the crazy way of handling repairing.

People who want to do more than using a camera and messaging, yes.

But 90% of the buyers waste lots of money.

Not really necessary. Their market share is like 10:1.

People are buying names not actual performance.

You are seeing it with the ridiculous amount of apple appliances out there.

Losing.

One has to add that the second best Nvidia is still more expensive than the AMD one and it beats it in everything but Ray Tracing.

On what is this based?

If you just look at other world cup performances, it does not make any sense.

Hopefully something like the last 4-10 years or so. France being the current world champion, this having a good team at hand should give them much higher chances of winning.

And that is the reason I never buying games on release anymore. I want to play finished games. So I am waiting and get then cheaper as well.

Problem with this is that is subjective and not clearly defined.

You could push words into certain categories and then do this. But still not nice, I think.

I never had that problem, even at the time I only for 50 bucks shoes.

Now I am wearing 120-150€ shoes and never had that problem. Glued shoes have sometimes also the advantage that they have the possibility to replace the sole. Not sure if stitched ones can have that so easily.

It is the sturdiest Abus foldable and Kryptonite Evolution. Hiplok would also be on my list of possible locks, but I do not like U-locks so much.

And as you said: if the attacker is dedicated enough, they will break it for sure.

But as I am working on implementing cryptography algorithms: every system can be broken, but the question is the trade-off between cost/time and gain. And my bike has definitely a really bad ratio compared to the bike with a thin string as lock, not connected to some solid object, right next to mine.

These locks are some the lock picking lawyer took almost a minute at in perfect condition with specialized tools, not a terrible position crouched in with cheap tools.

Standard tools to break them apart completely fail while a cheaper lock can just be cut open with a $5 saw. You need at least an angle grinder to cut through them, which is rather easily I admit. But at the spots I usually lock them the chance is high that they could rather cut themselves while working on the lock.

And last but not least, 100% of the time there are much easier targets and often more expensive than my bike right next to mine.

Or people buying a $5 case for their $1500 phone.

I paid 1400€ for my bicycle and carry two 100€ locks with it to bring it into the opposite extreme of perspective. But I never fear to get my bike stolen.

Yay, pay some 2000 bucks on a GPU but get cheap cables. That is the way to go, NVidia.

Well, technically.... ah whatever.
