Thats not a hardware problem. It doesn't matter what GPU you have with that game, it still stutters. So why pay $1500 when you will have the same experience as a $500 card?

You realize that the whole world doesn't have the luxury of being safe in their vehicles? An armored SUV like this could absolutely serve a market in countries like Brazil, South Africa, certain parts of Mexico, etc.

Why the hate for this? There is a legitimate need for armored vehicles in MANY parts of the world. Has this author not seen the video of the cash van attacked on a highway? I'm sure those guys would have LOVED to have something like this.

The entire world doesn't live in the safety of this Kotaku author's Mom's basement. While the price tag might be high, its still something that I could see having a solid market.

I don't think very many people care about touchscreen on a laptop but its something handy to have if it comes without tradeoffs in image & screen quality.
I've had touchscreen Windows laptops and never used it. For me I'd rather use a mouse.. But we also have a whole generation of kids coming into the "Laptop" age who grew up using tablets/touch, so I could see how this would be a market driver.

I don't know if I would call it "New"... It's been a thing since my son was born over 10 years ago. His first "Trick or Treating" event was a trunk or treat at a church before he was 1 year old and they had already been doing it several years before that.

Then you should have negotiated a different salary or not taken the job.
Taking an RSU heavy compensation package is a high risk/high reward situation. If you chose to accept that - that's 100% on you.
There wouldn't be anyone writing an article if Amazon stock doubled and your pay was 2x what you had projected. This is just how RSU's work.
