I wouldn’t mind it all so much if there weren’t so many goddamn cheaters in the lobby.

AMD is making a lot more off their CPUs than off their GPUs afaik.

Absolutely agree, but I’m continuously surprised at how many people don’t WANT to think for themselves. It’s not that they lack the ability or their IQ is too low, they simply have decided to outsource their goddamn morality. That’s perhaps worse than simple ignorance.

It killed Digg. It’s slowly killing Reddit now.

I love how this used to be attributed to anonymity. Then big sites with comment sections made use of real names mandatory and… nothing changed, the same people still happily spew their hateful drivel and propaganda. They’re fucking proud of it.

At first it annoyed me slightly but I’ve noticed that I can understand most of them without having to use a translator, so now it’s just free language practice. And deciphering memes is decidedly more fun than taking a course.

That’s a legit societal theory called “accelerationism”. Make everything so awful that people will realize what’s happening and instigate massive backlash.

Except… the first time this was tried, in the 30’s, we got WWII instead of solutions. So maybe not that great of an idea after all.

Trump may be incompetent but the architects of project 2025 are, unfortunately, not. Trump is merely their most useful idiot.

Can you let me know if you find the answer? I’ve been looking for a while myself.

It happens, especially in tech, but I’d say it’s still the exception to the norm.

Well… you’ll find out eventually, one way or the other.

Don’t worry Nintendo, even as someone who grew up on SMB, you’ve thoroughly convinced me to never do business with you ever again. Not even nostalgia…

Wrong. There was one thing truly exceptional about the USA: the best propaganda the world had ever seen. Certainly the most effective.

Give it some time. I’m sure they could be a whole lot worse still.

That thing will be around long after she’s gone, and, I hope, will show up on the first page of search results every time.

Nah, precisely because we would cash out and settle for peaceful lives long before we’d become billionaires or even millionaires. It takes a certain type of person to begin earning millions and conclude “that’s not nearly enough, I need this times a thousand”. None of them are “good” people.

“Yes, we did promise them the money, but we never agreed on a timescale. In fact, I’m moving the disbursment to next decade because, well, I can. Toodles!”.

Damn, Elon’s company town is barely a week old and others are already introducing scrip. I knew it was going to be inevitable but this is way faster than even I anticipated.

At this rate climate disasters will get us long before that cancer has time to fully develop.

The Romans would call this an ill auspice.
