I envy the willpower to tune him out.

Nah man, it’s cool, I learned a bit more English today!

Giving away 200 billion dollars means having 200 billion dollars. Bill Gates might be one of the 'better billionaires, but just the act of hoarding that much capital is harmful, let alone the method used to obtain it.

I have family who truly believe Trump to be a genius. But everytime, and I do mean everytime I hear him speak he comes off as a senile idiot.

I wish I understood what spell he has people under.

The fact it is a significant fraction of his defensive fund is the depressing thing. But thanks for trying!

The unfortunate thing for me is I don’t see how we get reasonable competition in the computing space at this point. The economies of scale that is required to get a reasonably priced chip to market is enormous.

Unsurprising, Nvidia really only cares for the higher end market for gaming.

Hopefully AMD and Intel can find success making reasonable cards for the masses.

Only thing missing here is that I have the weather on there normally.

Most of my picks have been mentioned already, but I had a blast with Mullet Madjack. A tongue in cheek riff on 80s anime in a boomer shooter where you have 10 seconds to live, but each enemy kill gives you 2 more seconds of life.

This was the top comment for me, and I thought it wasn’t going to be too bad.

Wow there are some hot takes down there.

Truly, best I can tell, death is seen as the solution to many problems rather than, you know, solutions.

You can, apparently a decent portion of the population can’t.

Find your kickflip.

Those programs do have an effect on pricing. Not 1 to 1 with the cost subsidization and even if it does there’s plenty of arguments to keep programs like that around.

However I’d rather see moves made to encourage positive behaviors, like purchasing an electric vehicle, that didn’t translate into a dealership subsidy.

Look, I don’t appreciate being called out this hard.

Yeah, this is my issue with the government incentives for EVs, especially now that they are more common and can be deducted from the sale price. Most retailers are just jacking up the price to whatever the cap for the rebate is while pretending it’s still a good deal.
