This is what winning looks like, right?
05.12.2025 20:40 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Imagine believing anything this regime says.
They will be saying this every day until Trump is gone β and probably even after that.
My wife translated this for me. I should have made her look away.
04.12.2025 04:43 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Even Julius Caesar was morally opposed to corruption.
03.12.2025 23:27 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I think maybe it's just lowering volume to the point where the brand may as well not exist. Sort of how the GPU makers completely eliminated GPUs smaller than 200mm2 or so.
03.12.2025 21:33 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Maybe they have a very specific definition of the word deployed that doesn't include active use.
You might say they ought to use a different word if that's the case, but deploy sounds too cool to not use in my opinion.
The science on "centrists do better than progressives" is already mostly established, the improvement is at best marginal, a point or two maybe. It's absolutely delusional to think that when a progressive candidate overperforms by 14 points, a centrist would do it by 23.
03.12.2025 18:16 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Didn't know they owned Lexar, interesting. I guess the plan is to spinoff Crucial/sell it to some other company, and then potentially make a new consumer brand down the line?
03.12.2025 17:35 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0In hindsight, my laptop and GPU purchases recently were great ideas. Any consumer device that comes with a decent amount of RAM or storage is gonna be mega expensive in 2026.
03.12.2025 17:30 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Absolutely insane to me that the Crucial brand is now dead. My first ever RAM purchase was DDR3 Crucial Sport memory, two 4GB sticks if I recall correctly. Prices have gone up so dramatically that selling to consumers just isn't an option anymore.
03.12.2025 17:26 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0This outrage is performative, they're all pretending this isn't exactly what they wanted. They know the Trump moment is going to be very short lived and they want points with the very vocal majority that despises Trump.
03.12.2025 15:59 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 1They can't explain this away like they did in November. This part of Tennessee should have voted for him by at least double digits, but they didn't. The bell is tolling for the Pedo Party, Congress is going to be Democratic turf next year.
03.12.2025 02:28 β π 14 π 2 π¬ 0 π 0Even if Behn doesn't win, she will have embarrassed Trump and his Guardians of Pedophiles. This is almost a 20 point swing and it happened in one of the reddest states in the country.
03.12.2025 02:14 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I was planning on visiting ORNL when I wrote for The Register, I hope I get to before they decommission Frontier.
03.12.2025 02:10 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Wait so is this the War on Christmas Fox News has been talking about?
02.12.2025 19:37 β π 2 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0I'm hoping my state's 7th district will choose the Congressional candidate who wants to stop the inflation avalanche, who wants to release the Epstein Files, and who has a mind of her own and doesn't suck up to big city billionaires.
Vote for Behn!
#Tennessee
That betting markets think there's even a 10% chance this happens should be red (or blue I guess) alert for the Guardians of Pedophiles.
02.12.2025 03:28 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Nvidia definitely doesn't wanna be Lucent considering its stock price cratered by over 99% from its peak and it ended up getting sold to a French company.
Now which part of that is worse, it's hard to say.
We're gonna have to ask a Gen Xer on that one.
01.12.2025 16:56 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0As the foundational 3D platformer I'm sure people were wondering what the future would hold, especially since the camera was probably the roughest part of the game.
01.12.2025 16:08 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0People must have said this about Mario 64.
01.12.2025 15:47 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0Retail, I don't get sample/review/whatever units anymore. I bought this to replace my desktop since I have that Razer USB4 dock.
01.12.2025 15:08 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Well one of the fans on my brand-new Ideapad is completely broken. Sounds like a purring cat is in my laptop. I've never had any fan of any kind die on me, let alone one in a new device that's supposed to be pretty good quality.
01.12.2025 15:05 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Dang I wish I got a business card from any of the places I wrote at!
28.11.2025 15:07 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Maybe the way country identifiers are read has changed? You have a really old account so it's possible the old data is still technically readable but is being read the wrong way. For instance, maybe 123 was the old code for the US but now it's used for Japan.
25.11.2025 15:08 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0You're fucking crazy.
24.11.2025 14:04 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Correct.
23.11.2025 20:07 β π 589 π 103 π¬ 10 π 0Trump is a first generation immigrant too. I think he should be considered for deportation.
23.11.2025 22:28 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Saw Wicked 2.
It was good.
Wonderful even.
