minus-squareBlue_Morpho@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up29·11 hours ago12 gaming PCs networked together for $1,000,000??? I think it’s bad reporting. It’s a $1M house that they spent $100k for a custom game room. No one is that stupid to pay that much for so little.
minus-squaregivesomefucks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·10 hours agoNope, 22… Article says that’s 75k. And each one is in custom “hideaway” cabinets that they said cost as much. They didn’t do anything cheap, and once you get to a certain level, everything becomes crazy expensive. This is the type of shit you do when you’re the problem and money is an afterthought. I don’t know why anyone would celebrate it.
minus-squareBlue_Morpho@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·19 minutes agoOk, so I was right. The house is a $1m house, not that they spent $1m to make it a lan party house.
minus-squaregivesomefucks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·12 minutes agoNope. But at this point I don’t understand why you haven’t just read the article…
minus-squarelemmus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·10 hours agoYes. This screams of inadequate taxation.
