  • What next, power supply shortages?

    Jump

  • My decision to buy a top end card for my 2019 base build PC in Q4 2025, Quickly spiraled into a panic buy of a full stack of new computer parts.

    I calculated it last night. I spent about $4000 CAD in 2019 on my build then, which was high end for the time (tack on another 3000 or so in upgrades through its life, 16>32 RAM then switching it out for 64gb, 2070 > 3080 > 5080, and at least one SSD addition)

    I havent even built it yet and I've spent like 6800 CAD on my next PC, I didnt plan on making the switch until Q4 2026 when my ESU Windows 10 expired but the rampocalypse and everything-pocalypse has forced my hand into buying now at bad prices, instead of buying later at worse.

    I wouldnt have even lifted a finger if It wasn't for the fact that my machine is so old, its stable but for how long?

  • ‘Completely lost his mind’: Trump's 'deranged' letter sends shockwaves across the globe

    Jump

  • the WWF connection is real. Trump has been a close ally of the McMahon family for decades and he was breifly involved with the show directley a couple of times . The way he runs conferences, talks to people, etc, is very similar to how things get scripted on the WWF/WWE

  • YSK: A real American Civil war will NOT be like Battlefield or COD.

    Jump

  • you dont get battle lines until there's been a few years of mass killings on both sides, before Regime Loyalist and Opposition "states" or lines solidify.

  • Current state of American - Canadian relations

    Jump

  • I'm Canadian.

    My interests are in protecting my own home, friends and family from getting stabbed in the back from our supposed brothers. Its up to you to sort your own obsession with fascists out.

  • Current state of American - Canadian relations

    Jump

  • The MAGA administration is setting things up so that they can never lose power again, a'la a coup. (Or I guess they call it a reverse coup?) the rubicon may have already been crossed and you may have to shoot your way out of it

    Im not holding any faith that it changes. the whole point of moves that fascists make, is that by the time you realize you have to fight, its already fait accompli, checkmate, already too late.

  • Dilbert creator Scott Adams dies aged 68 after prostate cancer diagnosis

    Jump

  • Ive got just one question for you Scott.

    what came first

    Ranch, or Cool Ranch?

  • Current state of American - Canadian relations

    Jump

  • thats the crux of the problem.

    we are NOT the same country. we have similar culture and values, similar, but not the same.

    there are some things that Canadians firmly choose the Red door on, where Americans chose the Blue door.

    those fundemental differences is what makes us a seperate country. there are many things we are on the same page of, but there are many things we might as well be cats and dogs on as well.

    Jump

  • we've only lost faith in most of you

  • Joe Rogan criticizes ICE tactics: 'Are we really going to be the Gestapo?'

    Jump

  • the sad thing about Rogan is he was a naive and dumb guy who was upfront and honest about being a dumb and naive guy. it was endearing and genuine for a while.

    now after 10 years of him saying dumb shit, and other dumb people egging him on, he actually thought he was a smart guy for a while.

  • Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney argues banning Twitter over its ability to AI-generate pornographic images of minors is just 'gatekeepers' attempting to 'censor all of their political opponents'

    Jump

  • Im not going to comment on whatever he's commenting on.

    Im just going to re-affirm that Tim Sweeney is a fucking moron. in any and all cases

  • Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future production

    Jump

  • Sweeney has Steam living rent free in his head. Whining about Monopoly

    Meanwhile, Epic Games already has something resembling a monopoly with the unreal engine, its buggy and resource hungry as fuck, and just seems to be getting worse. Necessitating an arms race of computer upgrades just to run the newest games on their obtuse engine thats being used for everything now. Epic certainly isnt doing anything about it. Its just a money printer for Tim's legal battles.

  • Toyota Chairman Goes Full MAGA At NASCAR-Inspired Event He Threw In Japan - Jalopnik

    Jump

  • Toyota CHR was a certified peice of shit.

    and I say this as I post from work at a Toyota Dealer.

    apparentley they're bringing it back as either an EV or a plugin EV like the Rav Prime.

    Jump

  • Honda is bending to Maga too.

    Honda, GM and Chrysler have all cancelled plans of opening / expanding Factories in Canada, some that were already subsidied by the local governments, in favor of caving to US demands of returning manufacturing there instead.

  • Tesla reintroduces 'Mad Max' Full Self-Driving mode that breaks speed limits

    Jump

  • CEOs like you're talking about, they dont drive.

    the only time they'll step behind the wheel of a car is for a pleasure cruise in some multi million dollar supercar on a track, or a closed / private road.

  • Tesla reintroduces 'Mad Max' Full Self-Driving mode that breaks speed limits

    Jump

  • Musk also has a private army of security contractors (and someone like him probably has mercenaries off killing people in other countries too)

    he's far too much trouble to go after, if you're DHS, regardless if you're Trump DHS or Democrat DHS. someone like that is ungovernable.

  • SS style lightning bolt "N⚡S" on an ICE agents helmet

    Jump

  • You dont have to look back very far to determine how this started on a low level, this is just aggresive inaappropriate counter-culture , 4chan internet troll, basement dwelling shitheel behaivor from the 90s and 00s but carried over into adult life

    Contrarians will always be contrary, so I guess being contrary to a boring "regime" that didnt particularly say or do anything except for ask for generic human rights for everyone, means cosplaying as the most offensive thing you can think of because it makes them mad, Cosplaying as Nazis and even doing the same thing the Nazis did with randomly and incorrectly co-opting norse iconography.

  • Thou shalt not alter thy body? I don't remember that one

    Jump

  • Fair enough, then its even more epic.

  • Thou shalt not alter thy body? I don't remember that one

    Jump

  • I was never raised Christian due to my family being a mix of Catholics and Protestants who had all mostly given up on church going cept forbguberals and weddings..

    The only exposure I ever gad to the Bible was reading comics of a Lego rendition of it called the brick testament. (Its actually creatively genius)

    You've basically described everything i remember about it to a T

  • Trump Classifies “Anti-Capitalism” as a Political Pre-Crime

    Jump

  • Yes, Tankies bad. Tankies and Fascists can be bad at the same time.

    The worst part is a lot of Tankies are carrying water for Fascists, (Russia) and dont even realize it because they're blinded by hating America or loving some fictional version of Russia that hasnt existed for 40 years (or arguably, ever)
