They did have a look at the major news outlets and the daily show a while back so.

Yup and I was going to wait until next year for a price drop which as of late seems to be AMD’s trend of aggressive pricing to complete.

Ding, ding! Yup, that’s just what it’s going to happen and under Trump’s proposal, will still be hit by a blanket tariff.

Also even if they do move manufacturing to the US, we don’t have the amount of raw materials so that would have to be imported under those same tariffs and prices would go up because labor is more expensive and we don’t have that manufacturing expertise, that’s not the US’s competitive advantage.

Case in point:

I mean seriously, America keeps playing itself.

Which sucks because I was going to wait for the next Gen CPUs to drop and the the rdna 4 cards Ray tracing performance before updating my current rig.

With this uncertainty it looks like I’ll be building now.

Interesting to see Jamie Harrison on the last panel.

The best way to be fleeced by a company that put minimal effort and charges that maximum price.

Easy for his old, rich, white ass to say.

I guess I really struggle to give two shits at this point. Not to dismiss or minimize your struggles if this is going to directly affect you, I do feel some level of empathy but overall, I just don’t care anymore.

We’re just going to have to see where the chips fall but I mean 72 million people and 15 million others that include Democrats and progressives decided that this is the course that America should take and take it America should.

Sucks but this is what America will deserve and there’s not much you’ll be able to do about it other than hope you and others like you have a local community to fall back on.

Honestly who knows, it’s literally on the whims of the giant toddler and who he listens to last that afternoon.

Have you met the Supreme Court? No he’s not going to be in jail.

Easier said than done there bucko. Most of us are just going to have to live here and take it because legal immigration into another nation is just as bad in most countries as it is here in America.

Feel bad for the rest of the world who still rely on the unreliable American voters.

Don’t disagree and I honestly hope all of their promises come true this time, abortion restrictions at the federal level, the gutting of government, putting Herschel Walker as the head of the DoD, all of it.

Americans will never learn unless they suffer.

Honestly, I hope Trump and his republican dumb fucks go through with their tariff plan to “save” the much improved economy. Americans deserve it.

There’s nothing to win back, this is America, always has been.

You let it burn.

Scammers gonna scam I suppose.

What a unwavering free speech absolutist that he claims he is.

Yeah, I used to use PIA right up to the buyout. Actually had them email me asking why, tried to make assurances that nothing would change, nope I don’t trust Kape. Still don’t.

Ha! I wish, it’s a new week so it’s all stress, all the time.

Remember when Bush was talking to a divorced mother of three, including a ‘mentally challenged’ son, working three jobs just to make ends meet and he said:

You work three jobs? Uniquely American, isn’t it? I mean, that is fantastic that you’re doing that.

Yeah, shit’s been broke for so long now .
