Methinks the Trump team lied to the negotiators once again, and were trying to play it off again as “Iran misunderstanding the terms of the deal”.

Hasan has his place, to me he is the left-wing Joe Rogan, someone who has decent appeal with terminally online people and more broadly among people disillusioned or bored with regular news.

The right-wing online ecosystem is more than just one monolithic faction. Be they MAGA loonies, religious fundies, techbro simps, economic acolytes, etc. etc. That variously align and lead into one another.

Hopefully people here can understand the concept of solidarity, you don’t have to love or hate him, just allow him to cultivate the audience and then discuss the differences with his followers where you think he can improve. I found out one of my close friends watched Hasan a lot, which was shocking to me since he hasn’t come off to me as a person with particularly strong political views. I find him annoying to listen to for long periods of time, but it’s a bro-coded way of teaching people empathy so I think he’s worth having around.

An W11 update in February took my work computer 1 hour to update, even Windows put “estimated 50 mins” on the Windows Update screen. Decently fast processor, 16GB RAM and SSD.

I think our IT manager paused updates for everyone in late January because of all the issues it was causing, then that Friday afternoon I walked around the office and saw a bunch of people taking a “second lunch” because their computer was in the process of updating Windows.

Trump’s sense of humour also involved a fantasy of him dropping his own shit onto Americans.

Yes if you’re time horizon is 10yrs, then spending 15% more for the upgrade to -70 gpu will be worth it in the short and long run and your 750W PSU will handle it just fine. There will hopefully in 2-3 years be cheaper RAM and SSDs again after the AI bubble. You will also have the opportunity to upgrade your CPU at least 2 generations forward without changing your motherboard, if you ever need to.

Looks great, what’s your monitor going to be? If you use a 20 year old one with a VGA connector it will not look good no matter how powerful your PC will be. I know you said 1440p so you probably have something in mind already, but it would be meaningless with a 768p so I’m just sanity checking for you. My suggestion for a new monitor would be a 27 inch 144 Hz 1440p IPS panel, would run under 12000 INR.

I looked carefully at the PSU since it’s a brand I’m not familiar with and it’s very important. A 10 yr warranty offer sounds very confident, and they at least have a clean record for their previous PSU offerings.

If you don’t have headphones or you live with other people and worried about noise, check reviews of the CPU cooler, case, GPU and PSU for any reports of coil whine or other annoying sounds. You might easily get used to it but it’s something to avoid getting surprised by since it’s your first build.

Plus, finally there is a major price hike that can’t be blamed on the green parties.

The best part I think is, the US oil and gas industry got everything they wanted out of Trump and more, but doing all that is actively screwing them in the long run. Their talking points like LNG being a bridge fuel and securing energy prices by having oil production are combusting in real time.

What do you even get from a Luna subscription? Just a Amazon-only rental library of games?

To achieve the USA’s goals of peace and stability in the region, clearly they need to take out the source of instability – namely Israel. How about a ground invasion there?

It changes nothing about the urgency and need to remove him from power.

Can we say the IDF and Zionists are anti-Semitic, now? Tanking reputation of Jews by their own conflation of Israel and Judaism, going on genocidal campaigns, having little regard for Semitic people and places of worship including synagogues…

Way to go, Trump. Now, no country will even think about helping you with your military adventurism, if you’re talking about dropping nukes or otherwise planning to murder scores of civilians.

If neither side can provide concrete evidence of him being in their custody, could the airman still be at large, waiting in the mountains somewhere to be rescued? I imagine he was exfil’d given the amount of resources expended to achieve that but anything the Trump admin says should be met with a massive amount of doubt.

I predict TACO Monday shortly after the markets open and start dropping like a rock.

Proposed revision: Do not use Copilot for business purposes.

Is the USDoJ going to actually present a credible argument in the Abrego Garcia case at last?

Bondi’s jail sentence could be until the DOW is back above 50 000. 🤣

Ok works great! One bug report, one feature request:

• 4 frigates ran aground from their guard circling… if near the coast they should circle the other direction. Or this is Hegseth’s Navy.
• As an oil tanker can we get a red or green flag/spot to indicate whether our destination is in bound or outbound? I survived for a while but wasn’t sure if I was going the right way and autopilot was going crazy.

So you’re arguing that the cost and regulation barriers are higher than renewable development. Are those increased costs proportional to the benefit to the higher baseload, and would an equivalent baseload not be able to be met through battery storage?
