I think the rich are more prone to buying new items. Eventually the prices of used items will rise as a result of demand, but not right away. No one needs a new game console, and few could not meet their needs with a used PC or laptop.
Most in the US already have all of the above, but sure, this disproportionally “hurts” the poor.
Californians are the reasons I left California. Just like Americans are the reason I want to leave this country more and more each day of my life, but still, nothing about that first issue has changed for the better since I left.
The PC parts pipeline is ever-so-slightly more diverse, although the article does say Laptop prices could go up by 46% …
Look forward to more machines being assembled in other countries before hitting US soil, same as is already done for appliances by way of Mexico. Lack of imagination and industry knowlege on the part of whoever wrote the article, or just the desire to fear-monger.
Frankly, prices rising is not something I care about. Taxing the rich has to start somewhere, even if its what the Dems should have been doing.
Silver Lining. Fuck Consoles. Nothing that powerful should have most of its capabilities locked behind DRM, Licensing, and Walled Gardens.
Take it to a DIY car-wash, drop a few quarters, and power-wash that sonofabich. Probably cheaper than buying acid or even a brush or whatever.
If you’re not bent-out-of-shape, then why keep up this charade? Stop coddling the orange man-baby.
If it causes him to waste time and energy replying, even in a speech in the vaguest of terms about his “haters”, it’s good enough.
Failing another dragon, death by a thousand cuts can kill a dragon, and there’s little exuse for holding punches when the dragon repeatedly demonstrates that it absolutely has to die.
Riiight, let me just go throw a small dick joke at, say, Ellen Degeneres, or Oprah, or even Ru Paul(iirc, theirs, if they still have it, was rumored to be large) … None of them would care. They would probably laugh at the notion of me getting worked up about it.
Toxic masculinity is bad when targetted at non-men, or non-masc-conforming men. Saying throwing a small-dick joke at Donald-Fucking-Trump is equivalent to calling Ellen small-chested, Oprah fat, or Ru Paul masculine, is bat-shit apologism, and I’m done responding to you on this bullshit.
Should have been
Tell them that. They’re the only ones getting more bent-out-of-shape about it than you.
Good. Fuck cheap oil. Help renewables win!
I’m still afraid to google what Russians consider sauce. Worst case, I have something in common with Trump, and that I cannot abide at the moment.
Adolf Hitler killed himself when Germany was invaded, ie, the world responding in kind to the lowest form of communication and behaviors(war), and was absolutely right to do so. He demonstrated less will to survive than basically any of the people he had sent to death camps.
Stop chastising people for punching up at the billionair class.
Being toxic is an invitation to be toxic. The subject has made clear the forms of communication within their grasp, and decency is not among them.
I have friends with similarly-low follower accounts that have been engaged with by Elon Musk on Twitter.
You fail to grasp the pettiness and narcissism of this particular brand of celebrity. They will go to stupid lengths to crush an ant that looks at them funny, never grasping what a complete waste of time and energy they are engaging in.
No one should be basing their “how to do it right” on a single forum comment. Talk about scope-creep for the offering of advice.
“… and God said, let us make man in our own image.”
Pretty much anywhere. Be nice if the AI could have obtained them a permit, in some jurisdictions, but failing that concern, I think I would enjoy finding out I was “duped” alongside thousands of others who share an interest of mine like so.
… or forced to take-on un-related work and afraid of discouraging newbies.
wtf did I just read? Even dark ages fiefdoms had exile…
