  • Why do you need new?

    E waste is a huge deal, a refurbished or even used card is soooo much better for the environment than new

    And people will always keep buying the newest and fastest, and selling last gen’s newest and fastest into the used market.

    There’s nothing wrong with buying used as long as you’re paying attention. It’s not like 20 years ago when card burnt out in a couple years. Even mining rigs aren’t that hard on cards these days because we’re past the days of them OCing to go as fast as possible. They’re undervolting to save on electricity and running at steady loads when power is cheap.

    We need to normalize used hardware.

    Quick edit:

    I should point out to be very careful right now, everytime a new gen comes out there’s a bunch of scams like cards without dies and other things.

    Always be careful, check reviews and understand some things are too good to be true.


  • Only when “domestic” corporations don’t get a cut…

    In a shift, the department said the bans would not cover Chinese software developed before the new rules took effect, so long as it was not being maintained by a Chinese firm.

    That means General Motors (GM.N), opens new tab and Ford (F.N), opens new tab could potentially continue to import some Chinese-made vehicles for U.S. buyers, a senior official told reporters.

    We can’t have cheap Chinese EVs because the software is dangerous…

    Except when American corporations get their huge cut.







  • pretend like I said anywhere that ALL I do with it is game,

    No, I said no one should buy this for gaming…

    No one should buy this for gaming…

    You’ve misunderstood everything I said, and now you’re taking an attitude because you don’t know what’s happening. Which honestly is a very normal reaction, it’s just the threshold that’s surprising.

    Me explaining anything to you is just going to be frustrating on both sides, so I’ll take the easy step to make sure it doesn’t happen again.








  • I’m getting really tired of neoliberals cheering for basic mediocrity and acting like it’s murder to criticize Biden

    You remember a couple years ago when a WB board member said the reason they bought CNN was to make it more like Faux News to change people’s minds?

    These are those people that kept watching CNN and that is why they’re acting like trump supporters.

    The wealthy want voters with zero standards except the left by a name. And they’ve bought almost every media outlet to get those types of voters in both parties.


  • Someone is going to buy and build on that property. Full stop.

    They weren’t able t before because of the fire risk rating…

    Which the rich lobbies to change so they could build mansions there, land that was cheap because of that rating.

    The existence of those homes that also skipped fire safety regulations due to the lowered raring caused hotter fires to burn the houses on what used to be on the boundary to have their fire safety measured made insufficient.

    As mentioned above, we’ve had nearly 100 years of fire suppression practices that kept fuel from burning

    And the rating was changed less than a decade ago…

    Which is why prior methods proved insufficient…

    I dunno man, I can’t think of a simpler way to put it.
