Anybody having config issues on their high end machines with super fast on-die unified memory are going to be the new "waaah, my Ferrari has a flat tire" gang, lol.

That usb-c connector with side screw locks looks like a future I want to live in.

It's futuristic, but it's open and not corporate. It's miniaturized and sleek, yet still mechanically rugged.

If I woke up to discover that all of DC was a smoldering crater and those countries all offered us protected refugee status under Canada’s leadership, the strangest part would be living through world-changing history and having a GOOD feeling about it for once.

USian here who is also getting an MRI tomorrow. Fun coincidence and I wish you well on your alien abduction simulator!

The fortunate thing for you and me, and the unfortunate thing for humanity as a whole, is that daily life in the US is generally pleasant and undisturbed by brutal overseas military actions.

That’s a general theme of this place though. The country is massive and geographically isolated/protected while the military is spread all over the world doing shit all the time.

I think it’s a bit of a misnomer. It’s not that people are abandoning their jobs, it’s that they are abandoning the toxic mindset that says line must go up, that good people are good worker drones for their superiors, etc. It’s more like quitting your career but keeping your job even if in a half-assed way.

the crash itself doesn't make anyone's life any better

Fucking seriously. Just how much of the world has always been a bunch of hateful shits who only needed a bigger asshole to kick things off?

It’s like they used to mostly care about money, with the hate being a convenient tool to bring useful idiots on board.

Now it’s more like they mostly care about the hate, with the laughable money/prices promises being the useful tool to bring dumdums along.

Or it’s just that our politicians have been compromised and are not acting in the interest of other empire(s).

Who are all these people waking up at a fixed time on the clock on a Sunday morning? Some people have to work of course but me working a weekday 9-5, my wake up times on the weekend can vary a huge amount.

Yep, the “standard” time should definitely be what we currently call daylight saving.

Yes, much like with defense, all of Europe should band together on this.

Just uh, pretty please let Americans use it as long as we agree to be good?

I hear certain parts of the European Union can teach us a thing or two about those!

Holding public office is supposed to be an act of service. All federal and probably all state politicians and their staff should not be allowed to own any individual stocks or companies, including any mutual funds without diverse holdings. And the right people to lead would be glad to do it and to transparently demonstrate their compliance.

But nope. The system is designed to attract and reward scumbags. Mainstream society tells us that loathsome narcissistic sociopaths who happen to accumulate a large net worth are the pinnacle of human existence and we should be thanking them for dragging us out of the dark ages.

Absolutely. France is a big joke to many ignorant, insulated, isolated Americans. But every time I see something they actually do or say? Based as hell.

4D chess up in here. Take THAT, migrants! Don’t want to come up here now, do ya?

(Looks up measles vaccination rates in US vs Mexico)

Well at least you are probably starting off protected.

Only if you ignore the context.

If I said “Mexico isn’t even trying to end this war” and you said “they are literally shooting every American that steps across the border!” it would not sound odd at all.

And it certainly wouldn’t sound bigoted against an ethnicity.

Context clues, my friend.

That post is clearly referring to shooting Russian soldiers that have invaded.

And just to help you further, the adjective "Russian" in that sentence refers to the state for which the soldiers fight. So a "Russian soldier" could be some poor dude from North Korea who got shipped over.

To further aid understanding, look at the military of a diverse place like the United States. You will have "American soldiers" working side by side who have different ethnic backgrounds and were even born on other continents.

In my limited exposure to the ramblings of conservative acquaintances, they now consider Zelensky to be a "little dictator" who was rude to their favorite douches.

Regarding Israel, I think it's something along the lines of "judeo-christian values" good, brown savages bad, and OH LOOK SOMETHING SHINY!! Sorry, you were saying?
