Literally the only way to associate the name Trump with Class.
I haven’t used Plasmids in years!
…I really should go back and replay BioShock this Christmas holiday!
Yeah, in hindsight it really landed at an opportune time.
It’s a crying shame how greedy companies like Nvidia & Micron have gotten from back-to-back runs on their products - it feel like it will take a generational downturn for them to pull their heads in, and return to the more modest profit margins of the past (which even then was around 30%, IIRC).
Ah, completely forgot that Intel 6th gen introduced DDR4 - I would’ve sworn it was much more recent than that!
You’ve certainly gotten your money’s worth out of your system - that’s for sure!
I went from a 3570K, 16GB, GTX 670 -> GTX 1080 (later SLI’d), to my current rig:
5950X, 32GB, RTX 3090 -> RX 7900 XTX
Just before the Ethereum mining rush took off, and with the current pricing due to AI fuckery - I don’t think I’ll be switching up anytime soon.
The thing with smart TVs is that you don’t need to connect them to your network to use them.
LG, unfortunately, still make the best OLED displays at the moment, and Samsung are arguably even worse when it comes to not respecting their customers.
Our C2 65in is hooked up to an Apple TV for all of our media streaming needs.
Reduce the US population by almost 2/3rds?
Press X to Doubt.
Criminally under-funding, and undermining the public schooling system for at least two decades (Bush Jr.), or longer if you consider Reagan’s ‘81 Omnibus as the start of the current downward spiral.
It’s not hard to figure out why Republicans are so anti-education; you have to be an idiot to think that their policies would be good for the working class.
64GB of DDR3 RAM in a system of that era is straight nuts!
Stop carrying water for the DNC, they don’t deserve it.
You have Trump (both times) because the vast majority of the population were unhappy with their circumstances, and the trajectory it was on.
How is it dividing the party to propose they follow their own bylaws and face a suits or primary challenge? Why is it their divine right to run unopposed, what - just because they’re incumbent septuagenarians who’ve gotten ungodly wealthy off insider trading and kick-backs from corporate lobbyists?
Make no mistake, the Dems are on track to win big in the mid-terms and in the 2028 election. But with feckless figures like Schumer and Jefferies at the helm, they are all but guaranteed to squander this once in a generation opportunity to make a fundamental change in the direction of the nation.
And when they inevitably drop the ball, young voters will seesaw back away from the Dems just as quickly as they did from Trump, and Biden before him.
Without a strong, progressive solution towards income, healthcare and housing affordability for the bottom 80%, and soon - America will not be able to pull itself out of the death-spiral it currently finds itself in.
More of the same failed Liberal policies simply won’t suffice in this day and age, and you are a gullible fool if you still think that it is.
Most corporatist/centrist Dems stand to benefit from the current status-quo and aren’t incentivised to support any radical shakeups.
This is causing the increasingly nihilistic populace (younger millennials and Gen Z) to flock to the extremes of the political spectrum. They rushed to Trump because he promised to improve their lot in life, and now they’re realising it was all a lie. They’re the cause for the 10+ point swings we’ve seen in the special and off-year elections thus far.
However, unless progressives are able to challenge and unseat existing Dems in sufficient numbers to be able to put forward a strong change in policy - we are only going to witness yet another exodus of support from the party towards the next GOP firebrand making false promises.
It takes longer to mend something than it does to break it, and I fear it will take 3-4 strong Dem presidential terms to undo the damage of the two Trump presidencies, let alone set the nation on a path towards prosperity.

Unironically, you’re missing out.
Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are both just ways to project the smartphone already in your pocket onto an additional screen (like plugging a second monitor to your laptop or PC).
Manufacturers like GM and Tesla hate it because it stops your data from being readily collected and stored with the purpose of building up a profile of ‘you’ that they can then sell to advertisers and insurance companies.
Now if only manufacturers had the good sense to keep things like climate control as physical switches - that’s my own personal bugbear. 🤬
