One of the neighbors a ¼ mile away from one of these mega mining facilities said they are reading noise levels between 80-100 decibels daily. Imagine some prick opened a giant loud energy sucking machine that’s strictly there to produce profit for them. Nothing tangible beyond that. I just can’t fucking imagine how furious i would be if i was that guy

And that made it easy for other billion dollar companies like Ticketmaster and LiveNation to do the same thing in other realms–simply buy the laws, buy the politicians, buy the system that’s supposed to regulate them, and then use that system to remove all competition.

Most notably, actual competition – a supposedly great boon of capitalism that drives up value for the customer – nowhere to be found in that formula. This is the exact same path i believe we watch every successful product or service eventually take.

Omg military is so cute! Donnie should totally ask military out, they’d be such a hot couple! 😍

“I got spicy, i got deep-fried, I’ve even got some rage comics if you’re old enough to remember em. $375 for a ½ gig, $700 for a full gig”

😭

But how much will we charge them to seek asylum? 🥴

Any particular ones to be aware of?

Funny thing is, i agree that free healthcare absolutely should be a right. I have voted and will continue to vote for any candidates that support it. I’m just disenfranchised at this point. I will continue to vote, but I’ve seen little/no good come of it.

Enjoy that sourdough!! I have always wanted to get into baking bread. I will eventually get there someday. The semolina my local bakery makes is 😗🤌 i love bread

It’s not the legislation I’m worried about, it’s the enforcement 🫠

I like the whole fund free healthcare idea but realistically just about all the $ coming in from drug sales would go directly into Leon’s pocket or whoever tf

Ooh, i see. Unfortunately i don’t have any experience soldering these…just pcbs, wires, etc. Hopefully someone else here can help out!

What kind of iron are you working with? What kind of solder are you using? Those 2 things alone can make a big difference. Practice is necessary too, of course–but if you’re trying to work with inferior equipment and/or solder, it may be harder than it should be…

“It’s going to be hard. It will require painful decisions. But we will make them knowing it’s what we must do to serve our customers better as we build a new Intel for the future – and I have great confidence in the power of our team and our people to make it happen.”

It’s gonna be hard, huh? For who, exactly? So much confidence in the power of their teams, yet they don’t seem to have any trouble cutting off large swathes of them. I can’t stand corporate speak and every syllable is dripping with it.

One of the largest names in cpu chips and this is the thanks their workforce gets for helping them reach such a position. Fuck this guy

As pointed out elsewhere around these comments, this looks like another classic example of enshittification. Just like everything that’s invented, it often starts out with a fairly solid design–it couldn’t succeed without that. Once the success is captured, they can start dissecting the design and figure out what parts can be made with cheaper materials (common example: replacing metal w/plastic) and/or cheaper tech. From that point it’s iterations of further cuts to material and tech until it’s the cheapest, flimsiest version that can still function well enough to outlast the warranty. I’ve been in my field long enough (appliance repair) to see generations come and go and it often runs that route. Sometimes design flaws get fixed during the process, but rarely does the product itself get better or more durable in the long run.

This is some future we’ve built/inherited, huh?

Think deportation could be on the table? Default on your loan and off to El Salvador? There’s no telling with these assholes

Wow, I’m glad to see something actually happen. Good for her, not backing down and standing up for her children’s rights. That’s a great mom!

Edit: and what a bunch of slimy fucking shits to drag a woman physically out of a town hall for calling a bunch of cowards out. They proved their cowardice with that response.
