Fednow is a stupid idea

Read their papersheet

[near nebula]

Is it dumb? sure, will it get approved? Yes!

[sonic barn]

It's already approved

For 2023

[north wraith]

Yeah and hopefuly it will get less dumb as people have to use it

[hollow pulsar]

I sincerely doubt it.

[near nebula]

in anything it'll get even worse.

[north wraith]

lol

yeah never trust old white men in suits to get tech stuff right

[sonic barn]

Imagine if you want to buy something like more food when food prices are out of control. However the government needs to ration due to supply. Same for water and medication

[hollow pulsar]

No need to pull the race card.

[north wraith]

eh your right ill change it

[sonic barn]

But Jerome Powell 😳

[near nebula]

See also: ...you can fill this part out in your own time!

[sonic barn]

I literally think we're in the time period where we ditch money

Else we are in the wrong timeline

[hollow pulsar]

Not possible. It might change format, but it’s still currency.

[sonic barn]

I think currency will be resources rather than money.

Resources and power

Until we all eventually merge to one single country

[hollow pulsar]

It’ll happen.

[near nebula]

not in our lifetime sadly

[north wraith]

My discord literally crashed trying to edit my shifted “old white men” comment

[hollow pulsar]

Sadly? I enjoy our diversity of governmental structures.

[sonic barn]

Makes no sense for being divided and constantly depending on consumerism to get our society moving whereas we can leave the planet

[wintry dagger]

I'd think at most 3 countries because there are only like 3 major land masses

[north wraith]

I do as well… to a point

[wintry dagger]

europe, asia, and africa are all technically one since they're all connected

austalia would be its own

[sonic barn]

If capitalism was really the right way to evolve society, then why has it always led to the fall of a civilization

[wintry dagger]

and south america and north america would be one

[north wraith]

It’s like how we want more companies makes computer parts and not just amd/intel

[sonic barn]

I think Intel will file for chapter 11

[hollow pulsar]

We can learn from what works and what doesn’t. Folks have a greater opportunity to change what doesn’t work. 1 government isn’t going to allow for that. It will descend in to “not working” as all do, and there will be nowhere to turn unless diverse governments rise again.

[north wraith]

Your joking right?

[sonic barn]

Intel is worth 100 billion and has 40 billion in debt

[near nebula]

NVIDIA could if people voted with their wallets, but it won't happen

[sonic barn]

Has 120k employees

They got another earnings on the 28th I believe and it doesn't look good so far

Stock is 25$

[north wraith]

I'm not saying intel is immortal but I think they will be around for while still

[gilded quest]

^

[near nebula]

true their will be a collapse point for every company, so better be thankful with what we've got I suppose...

[north wraith]

They are legitmently too big to fail like the government would bail them out before that happens just think of all the federal computers that rely on intel cpus

[sonic barn]

They planned for expanding and r&d very poorly. There's plants in construction around the world where they were partially subsidized. USA gave tech companies the chips act which does nothing mainly as even others like tsmc benefit from it

[hollow pulsar]

This is a signal that we don’t have enough competition in the market.

[sonic barn]

Intel has huge debt levels rising and free cash flow dropping with each dividend and day passing

[north wraith]

Yes

[sonic barn]

Intel has to cut dividend, reduce team to 12k like AMD and Nvidia have

So layoff 110k employees

[gilded quest]

Because Intel actually makes things

[sonic barn]

Then they can get their debt under control

[gilded quest]

Literally they own massive tracts if lands with giant facilities housing some of the most specialized equipment on the planet

[sonic barn]

Their data center scene is down 20% which is their main source of cashflow

[echo ridge]

08 flashbacks

[north wraith]

Idk maybe they can just keep borrowing? Seems to work well for US treasurery lol

[sonic barn]

Which are money landfills, pilling up

Each of those cost around 10 billion

[near nebula]

more people are adopting to AMD, or IBM (wait do they still do Datacenter processors??)

[gilded quest]

Worst case they spin off foundry as its own company

[sonic barn]

IBM still exists yeah

Mostly for software stuff now

[near nebula]

yeah, I was pondering whether they sometimes make processors for Enterprise servers still..?

[gilded quest]

Shedding the manufacturing into a separate company worked well for AMD

AMD was reading for what...a fuckin buck in 2015?

[sonic barn]

Yeah, Intel filing for chapter 11 doesn't mean it's gone. They can restructure under a new company with divisions and less people

[gilded quest]

Look at where the are now

[north wraith]

And just makes sense when you get that big

[gilded quest]

But what's your point about theorizing this in here every day
Geez

[sonic barn]

They are making 1/4 of Intel's revenue and are being traded at 30 times earnings

[near nebula]

the fiasco with FX bulldozer was sort of a wake up call with them, and by not really leading in GPUs has given them quite the advantage, on both consumer and business fronts

[sonic barn]

AMD is overvalued

Same with Nvidia 40 pe

[gilded quest]

Mr wallstbets here

[near nebula]

could say the same with Intel up until recently CPU wise

[north wraith]

Hey I’m here talking about steam decks every day…. People need a hobby and this is a good place as any to shoot the breeze

[sonic barn]

I owned Intel stock and lost money due to their stupid CEO

Made it back by shorting them

[gilded quest]

And I find this super hilarious

[north wraith]

Ahhh that explains some of this yeah. I’d be talking about it too in your shoes

[sonic barn]

It was 40$ to 38$ then I shorted to 28$

[near nebula]

still find it funny how for a day a load of people bought stocks on GameStop for dirt cheap, and sold it for a tidy profit

[gilded quest]

I didn't because by the time I heard about it I figured I was probably too late

[near nebula]

showing the older generation how it's done, stonks!

[sonic barn]

In order to make money, someone has to lose money. I prefer it is the companies that lose rather than retail

Intel has been a dumpster file long before I bought in. 0 growth

[north wraith]

I invests in companies that I actual belive are doing good work not to make a quick buck

But that’s just me

[sonic barn]

Mobileye gets delayed and IPO reduced in value which is 30 billion

[hollow pulsar]

Long term growth is, in my opinion, one of the best ways to go.

[sonic barn]

How's that going for you

Everything has trailing pe over 10

[hollow pulsar]

Very well actually.

[north wraith]

Yeah having it invested is partly so I can’t be tempted to spend it if it’s just sitting in some savings account

[sonic barn]

I doubt that

[hollow pulsar]

Why is that?

[sonic barn]

All major indices are down 20% +

[wintry dagger]

by very well hes probably thinking he'd lose a ton of money but instead hes only losing a little

[hollow pulsar]

I’m not strictly speaking stock.

[wintry dagger]

theres no way her profiting

[north wraith]

My portfolio isn’t too shabby either but I did start in 2008 so that might have helped buy low and all that

[sonic barn]

Lol

[north wraith]

Land?

[sonic barn]

Intel went from 250 billion to 100 billion in a year

And 40 billion debt

The company is only worth like 90 billion with assets

[north wraith]

Oh no they are only making 100 billion so sad for them

[sonic barn]

Intel has been laying out broken promises forever

[hollow pulsar]

Too pricy at the moment. Maybe someday. Steady job. Support a family, 2 vehicles, well on my way to surpassing retirement funds. Current USA economy is a little rough at the moment, but I’m weathering.

…growth options too.

[sonic barn]

That's their valuation. Earnings is 200 million, however last quarter was down a ton for the first time in 20 years

[north wraith]

Shocking I have no idea what could possibly explain such a thing

[sonic barn]

Interest rate hikes means big purchases are more costly. If you're taking a mortgage loan it's gonna cost extra in interest same with personal loans and for businesses

They plan for another 75bps hike next, then lowering. However with forex crashes they are in for a bigger hike like the UK

UK bank of England expects a recession globally

[north wraith]

Shhhh if you say it that makes it more likely

[sonic barn]

However we're in for a huge bounce before then. Last week had the most options contracts traded. Most shorts placed

[near nebula]

when? oh probably December (please be sooner so I can see those people ruining the economy's grins get wiped..!)

[sonic barn]

We'll go high then everyone will get pulled in before we collapse

Everyone I talked to said it's a depression

[north wraith]

Merry MF Christmas to you 😛

[sonic barn]

EU is gonna be wishing for coal

[north wraith]

Is that why you sound so… depressed?

[near nebula]

...I don't do Christmas anymore tbh 😛

[sonic barn]

I'm not depressed just disappointed in society

[near nebula]

they had a chance with actual people but yet... once again...

[north wraith]

You mearly adopted disappointing for society. I was born into molded by are compleat lack of fore-thought and future planing. I didn’t know what positivity was till I was a grown man.

[echo ridge]

Only 100 bil

[near nebula]

"Only"

jeez, you're going to make 1 trillion sound like child's money!

[north wraith]

I know! They might need to cancel there space x tickets

[sonic barn]

Yeah and positive is how you lose money. All the money managers and Waffen buffet are down big for believing in positivity over the summer

Goldman Sachs laid off a bunch of their staff which tells you something

[north wraith]

Damn not even a Bain quote and get you out of your funk. I’m sorry my dude that you are so glum about the future.

[wintry dagger]

someone spam dm me I cant find my phone

I can hear the notifs and find my iphone wont work

[sonic barn]

Everything is trading at mainly 20x trailing earnings when before everything traded avg 5 pe

If the spx and nasdaq were to drop 4x everything you see outside will be bad and no jobs

Hence depression

Gov like the USA will step in with fednow and regulate a stimulus for boosting spending but it'll backfire

People won't be able to pay it back and be stuck in more debt

System is broken

[north wraith]

See I tend to worry more about thing like how we are slowly killing the planet

[sonic barn]

Companies control the planet. Follow money and you'll control it

[hollow pulsar]

That stimulus check wrecked a decent chunk of my local economy. We can’t find workers for a lot of places.

[north wraith]

Damn that sucks where about if you don’t mind me asking

[sonic barn]

No one talks about factory farming when it accounts for hundreds of billions of dollars a year, yet is the biggest contributer to climate change according to NASA. We all still eat meat and changes nothing

[hollow pulsar]

Pacific NorthWest in USA.

[sonic barn]

Yeah it was stupid here in Canada too

They wanted repayments on the money owed

[hollow pulsar]

Back in 2012, I was making $14.50 as a System Admin in the San Francisco area and made bank. We can’t find fast food workers for $19 starting.

[sonic barn]

Inflation is real though

[hollow pulsar]

A lot of folks quite their jobs and live on government handouts now.

[sonic barn]

You got like 2% inflation each year plus the big events for inflation

[north wraith]

Damn

[sonic barn]

That's not real inflation though

Living costs are taken into account

Housing can go 10x, eggs 5x. Yet inflation will be considered transitory at 8%

[gilded quest]

housing is so fucking stupid rn

[sonic barn]

Then you have Biden saying inflation was 0%

[gilded quest]

hope zillow goes under

[sonic barn]

Now 1%

[ocean narwhal]

Biden doesn't know when it is, dont mind him

[sonic barn]

Bruh I don't even think he knows what day it is

[gilded quest]

and like come on california, fix your dam zoning laws already

[hollow pulsar]

As a homeowner, I’m not completely sold on using houses as investments and building wealth from it.

[sonic barn]

They handed him cue cards for each meeting. "Take your seat"

[north wraith]

Tbh I would either if I was President I don’t think they get weekends

[sonic barn]

Présidents are all psychopaths

[ocean narwhal]

im sure by that you mean getting rid of exclusively single family households right?

[wintry dagger]

my grandpa made his living from real estate and then buying a car lot 🤷🏻‍♂️

[gilded quest]

yes

[north wraith]

See that’s the thing about land. They can’t really make more of it

[sonic barn]

None actually care about the people, else they would be regulating the "free market"

[hollow pulsar]

I mean, it’s nice to have extra value, but still, people have to LIVE somewhere.

[wintry dagger]

I mean thats already a thing in tracy cali

[sonic barn]

Anyways everything will just get worse irl

[gilded quest]

portland allows lots to be quadplexed and its great

[hollow pulsar]

My greediness (and my local government for that matter) is literally making people’s lives harder.

[wintry dagger]

where do you live

[sonic barn]

All around the world is the same thing

You can't live off min wage, even 2x min wage

[hollow pulsar]

Pacific Northwest. Got a letter in the mail saying my property taxes were doubled. I was not happy.

[north wraith]

Meh I hear Iceland is doing ok

[sonic barn]

They returned to monke

[wintry dagger]

yeah here sure our min wage is "high" at 15 an hour but housing is 3k a month for a 1k sqft apartment

[gilded quest]

rip to the states at federal min wage

[hollow pulsar]

So then that just means I ask for more money at my job, which means people just trying to get by have to pay more.

[sonic barn]

People working are surviving paycheck after paycheck for decades

[wintry dagger]

yeah its too expensive to live tbh college is rlly what fucks people

[hollow pulsar]

I don’t like that. Some will do that anyway, but I strive trying not to do that.

[wintry dagger]

college debt is an ass

[sonic barn]

Even if they want to retire. They risk their savings being devalued with inflation

[wintry dagger]

the people who do have no choice

[sonic barn]

99% of people don't have control over their wages though

The top 1% do

[hollow pulsar]

Yup. So now they have to move out because my local government got greedy.

[wintry dagger]

I mean I live paycheck to paycheck but thats just my personal expenses bc im 16 and pay no rent

[north wraith]

Damn ineuzio your going to make me have to crack open a cold one tonight

[sonic barn]

Yeah and it's getting worse for all of us born like that

I'm 18

[wintry dagger]

"local government" mf you live in cali its so fucking obvious

[north wraith]

Ducking depressing crap

[gilded quest]

Ducking

[north wraith]

Nah I’m saying I need to drink lol

[hollow pulsar]

I’m not in Cali. I can tell you that. I moved out several years ago.

[sonic barn]

Well it's been talked about since the summer

[north wraith]

Yeah we’ll I didn’t want to get it censored

[gilded quest]

Fucking

[full fossil]

I'm praying to god that my graphics card doesn't crap out on me. I've struggled so hard to secure this back in 2021 when graphics cards were at a shortage and pixel glitches happening every few months is becoming concerning.

[north wraith]

Ah

[wintry dagger]

I cant wait until all of the boomers die and are out of government so then people who had insane college debt will fix everything

[sonic barn]

You can Undervolt it

[north wraith]

Well la dee fucking da then

[sonic barn]

Great wealth transfer already happened

[gilded quest]

but you can't say that one song from 4 years ago because it became a meme

[hollow pulsar]

They’ll turn in to “boomers”, but you might not recognize it.

[sonic barn]

Back in 2020 and 2021

[full fossil]

I'm not sure if I would want to undervolt anything in my system given the instability of the system...

[north wraith]

Old people… old people never change

[hollow pulsar]

There’s a lot of wisdom in older folks.

[wintry dagger]

my grandpa told me I could live by myself and pay rent while living comfortably... nevermind that hes basing it off of the 50s and makes 120k a year

[north wraith]

What will change though is the ratio of people in various age groups

[wintry dagger]

old people are dumb I stg

[sonic barn]

You know universities can operate on low tuition however the USA fixes the rate of tuition

The government does it internally

[gilded quest]

yeah its too expensive to have kids

[hollow pulsar]

Did he make 120k a year back then?

[north wraith]

Yeah I don’t have a problem with elderly per say it’s just becuase of the boomer gen being boomers there’s a lot more of them then we can handle

[full fossil]

Big difference

[wintry dagger]

he worked as a contractor so hes making good pay idk what he made though

[sonic barn]

50yrs ago you could probably work at a gas station and afford a home by yourself

[warm horizon]

😭 is that dust

[full fossil]

Yes

[hollow pulsar]

And are we in this chat so naive as to think the “boomers” didn’t struggle with their previous generation, and so on and so forth?

[sonic barn]

Now it's all debt and mortgage loans, bonds etc...

[wintry dagger]

he was asking me why I cant afford to go to costa rica while im making 15 an hour

[warm horizon]

😭 wtf

[wintry dagger]

like I swear hes in his own land or he has dementia

[north wraith]

50yrs ago you had people to fill up for cars for you like jersey and Oregen

[gilded quest]

bitch we still have someone do that

[hollow pulsar]

Oregon still does - by law

[full fossil]

WAIT WHERE ARE THE SIDEPANEL SCREWS

[north wraith]

@hollow pulsar they still do full service over there right?

Ah nvm

[full fossil]

Dark sidepanel so I didn’t notice plus years

[gilded quest]

i haven't had to fill my own gas in a year lol

[warm horizon]

bruh

[wintry dagger]

its a law here for somebody to pump gas for you if you have a disabled placard

[gilded quest]

oregon is whack

[north wraith]

Wonder if they will do that for EVs

[full fossil]

I found the sidepanel screws

[gilded quest]

thats a good law

[sonic barn]

You know that EVs are also bad for the environment due to bulk lithium extraction and production of batteries

[north wraith]

Also i can see that coming back for hydrogen cars.

[gilded quest]

trains > EVs

[hollow pulsar]

Anywho, I have to go. So my last word of advice is to study the past and learn from it. Discounting folks because “old” is a great way to repeat the mistakes of previous generations and by that point, you have only yourself to blame.

[north wraith]

Yeah I know that’s one depressing fact I got already

[gilded quest]

electrified buses

[sonic barn]

Public transport > anything

[wintry dagger]

jerryrigeverything did a comparison from a f-150 and a rivian and the rivian has half of the co2 produced or something in comparison to the f-150

[north wraith]

Hydrogen busses maybe

[gilded quest]

american cities really are not equipped to get rid of fossil fuels

[echo ridge]

Planes are actually pretty fuel efficient

[north wraith]

Hydrogen is going to be the new diesel

[sonic barn]

Even CO2 buses are better than 40 cars on the road

[wintry dagger]

still dont like electric cars and wont be considering one until battery degrading isnt an issue but still

[gilded quest]

id much rather use fossil fuels for flight than electric generation

[full fossil]

Trains have some of the most fuel efficient engines in the world

[north wraith]

Wouldn’t batteries always have a shelf life?

[sonic barn]

But they can't go to those factories making the batteries or be there during extraction

[north wraith]

Yeah planes won’t go ev anytime soon.

[gilded quest]

nope

[echo ridge]

Batteries are too heavy

[sonic barn]

Also batteries will need to be replaced and that is even more emissions

[north wraith]

Ships are pretty good too for cargo at least like trains

[wintry dagger]

yeah but degrading batteries are still super bad. im saying for them to develop batteries that barely degrade

[echo ridge]

For long distance

[gilded quest]

trucking industry needs to change too

[sonic barn]

Oil spills are real.

[gilded quest]

electrified highways pog

[north wraith]

Ah ok so it become almost a non issue

[echo ridge]

Steps on the highwat

[gilded quest]

err

i mean wires overhead

[north wraith]

No they are fake news done by the lizard men/s

[sonic barn]

They can power freights like nuclear submarines. But then it's considered a security risk globally

[north wraith]

Of course I know oil spills are real

[wintry dagger]

No it’s very much still an issue but I hope in 10 years it won’t be as bad

[wintry dagger]

Nuclear cars 👽

[north wraith]

Ooooh trust me YOU DO NOT want a commercial ship running nuclear

[sonic barn]

Fallout

[sonic barn]

One missile and rip world

[north wraith]

You your self just talked about oil spills

[echo ridge]

Not really

[wintry dagger]

Commercial nuclear passenger ships used to be a thing for transatlantic crossings

[sonic barn]

MAD since it explodes on anothers soil

[echo ridge]

It would be that bad

[full fossil]

Nuclear is a lot more safe than many people think

[echo ridge]

Nuclear has the least amount of deaths

[sonic barn]

Unless it shuts down in a controlled way

[north wraith]

I just mean as someone who sailed I wouldn’t trust the avenger sailor with a nuke

[echo ridge]

Thatd not solar

[wintry dagger]

Nuclear is one of the best ways to produce electricity but you have to operate them correctly

You don’t want Chernobyl 2.0

[echo ridge]

Chernobyl

[full fossil]

It’d be much more safe if we switched to thorium but thorium can’t make bombs

[full fossil]

Solar actually has more deaths

[sonic barn]

Fusion is what the sun uses. China is the one mainly leading

Nuclear fusion

[gilded quest]

true everyone who has seen the sun eventually dies

solar has a 100% kill ratio

[full fossil]

Fusion is amazing, because if containment fails then the requirements for fusion can’t be met and it just shuts down

[wintry dagger]

Now how the fuck does that work

[north wraith]

Though… I guess if it sinks that would do a lot to protect the world… except the fishes

[full fossil]

Fission will just keep on going

[north wraith]

Skin cancer?

[full fossil]

Acquisition of solar panels plus heat stroke installing the panels

[north wraith]

Idk some smart ass thing like that I bet

[wintry dagger]

Oh

[sonic barn]

Also basically 0 waste, as it's extremely efficient and waste can be recycled completely

[full fossil]

Mining resources etc etc

[full fossil]

The waste can just be used as more fuel

Plus you can use fucking hydrogen

[wintry dagger]

They also have a very limited shelf life

[sonic barn]

That's what I meant by recycling

[full fossil]

Mhm

[sonic barn]

Fission you get some composite like 10% that can't be reused

Or it's 3%, not sure

[north wraith]

I mean solar is technically fusion 😛 just with extra steps

[sonic barn]

Gotta replace panels each decade

Not a green energy imo

[full fossil]

People do “research” on nuclear and see Chernobyl and three mile island and don’t see that people literally disabled safety measures because the alarm was annoying them and they didn’t want to fix it, it’s really incredibly safe but stupid nuclear operators ruin med it for everybody

[north wraith]

Yeah was just making a joke since the sun is fusion

[dull granite]

nuclear power is the way to go but gotta figure out how to get rid of that waste

[sonic barn]

Hydro is an example of what is a true green energy

[north wraith]

Yeah but that’s humans for you

[wintry dagger]

yeah no chernobyl was completely different

[full fossil]

Molten salt reactors produce little to no waste and most waste can be recycled into more fuel

[echo ridge]

https://youtu.be/Jzfpyo-q-RM yep your right

[north wraith]

Dude that hbo mini on Chernobyl’s as awesome btw

[wintry dagger]

it was a dumb rushed design and when the meltdown started to happen the shit design didnt allow them to put the cool it down

[full fossil]

chernobyl was outdated as hell, newer reactors are exponentially safer

[woeful minnow]

nothing is perfect, plenty of issues with hydro as well

[sterile nest]

yo i need help whenever i type on a YouTube live chat nobody can see my comments

[wintry dagger]

chernobyl was also soviet.. which nuclear and soviet isnt a great idea

[sonic barn]

Post Soviet

[dull granite]

noo don't invest in actually good energy, our country needs more rockets and gunz

[north wraith]

Wasn’t part of them problem that they don’t have the big concret containment like western reactors do?

[sonic barn]

Afaik

[dull granite]

it was soviet

[full fossil]

exactly shit design, it's not the fault of nuclear energy as a whole, it's the fault of some idiots that played with stuff they werent qualified to

[full fossil]

lmao, thorium is safe and easy to use? great, but can it make us bombs?

[wintry dagger]

no it was just metal with a 6 inch thick concrete wall

[north wraith]

https://tenor.com/view/completly-normal-phenomenon-chernobyl-normal-completely-gif-15280147

[sonic barn]

Oh yeah I just checked and it was 1986, Soviet Russia collapsed in 1991

[north wraith]

Damn forgot gifs were regulated here

[full fossil]

we had molten salt reactors in the 60's but nobody used them because the byproducts couldn't be used to make nuclear warheads

[echo ridge]

Be blue

[sonic barn]

You can make bombs with soap

[wintry dagger]

yeah they still had the soviet flags and propaganda on the buildings then

isnt chernobyl like no more after russia bombed it

[full fossil]

nuclear bombs are what they wanted

not glycerin bombs

[dull granite]

three-to-five years (it was like immediately) after Chernobyl got bruh'd USSR got bruh'd too, so it's still soviet

[north wraith]

Chyernoble was probably a big reason it collapse tbh

[sonic barn]

I remember seeing this article and it explained exactly how to make a soap bomb

[dull granite]

also the pope

[wintry dagger]

yeah it was

[sonic barn]

Well there was also the space race end

[dull granite]

legalize nucelar bombs

[north wraith]

Was just about to say lol

[full fossil]

i just spent like 10 minutes troubleshooting my audio only to realise my wireless headphones auto-shutoff

If the soviet Union was still up and running, we'll be on Mars by now

Ships going very fast

[full fossil]

nuclear energy is the future, people are just too stubborn to see it

[north wraith]

Y’all raise a good point though. I absolutely can’t stand green activist who at the same time are nuclearphobic

[full fossil]

you dont even need to research it like at all, just watch one of the videos kurzgesagt made

[sonic barn]

"But the smoke is nuclear smoke" /s

[dull granite]

green energy activist who's nucelarphobic ≠ green energy activist

[wintry dagger]

if they would actually be on mars if they were still around i'd be pro-soviet for their space force

everything else is shit but if they made it to mars then hell yeah

[north wraith]

Lol yeah had someone like that who thoght steam was co2

[full fossil]

lmao, so many people dont realise that it's literally water vapor

Yeah it cools down the rods

[wintry dagger]

thats literally in ukraine

[full fossil]

germany when it shuts down the nuclear for the "environment" and "safety" only to meet the power demands with coal and oil

[north wraith]

Speaking of Russia I think they still have the only nuclear ship that has no weapons on it

[sonic barn]

They didn't

[north wraith]

It’s an ice breaker

[sonic barn]

They kept it running and extended it

[full fossil]

when coal and oil have the most casualties and worst environmental effect

[sterile nest]

yo i need help whenever i type on a YouTube live chat nobody can see my comments

[dull granite]

it's just "they told me to promote this kinda green energy thingy that will produce way less energy and will cost way more and it's inefficient as hell but it will give my political party more votes cuz people think they green "

I thought they shut them down

[north wraith]

Oh they did?

[sonic barn]

Yep back in July or something they announced it.

[north wraith]

Not @sonic barn saying something that restore my faith in humanity

[full fossil]

So they aren’t complete morons, cool

[wintry dagger]

yeah I get the whole environmentalism thing because ive seen it myself here in cali, but at the same time its horribly inefficient

[sonic barn]

https://www.wsj.com/articles/germany-to-keep-last-three-nuclear-power-plants-running-in-policy-u-turn-11660661914

[north wraith]

Yeah

[dull granite]

Germany loves Putin just like USA media love CCP

[sonic barn]

Meanwhile Canada is the CCP

[dull granite]

it gives money so why be morally correct

[wintry dagger]

the fuck are you on? hot take jesus christ

[full fossil]

People don’t realize that there’s more thorium on earth, thorium produces more energy and less waste, is much less likely to melt down, and is much more safe to mine because thorium doesn’t release toxic gasses

[sonic barn]

China owns basically all our real estate here

[full fossil]

China owns us*

[north wraith]

I deal with that crap all the time. We have this wind mills on a ridge that we’re just built for politics

[dull granite]

ye cuz they always used russian gas and tried to get away after it suddenly became bad to use it (spoiler alert - using it was bad all the time)

[sonic barn]

Previous Germany minister was best friends with putin

[full fossil]

Windmills are actually a lot less green than people think, they’re a nightmare to maintain and build, they kill a lot of birds, and we can’t do anything with the blades when they wear out

[wintry dagger]

well I mean we were allied until the whole ukraine thing

[sonic barn]

https://m.dw.com/en/putin-and-schröder-a-special-german-russian-friendship/a-55219973

[dull granite]

yea oh well
let's better drop the politics cuz its main chat or something

[full fossil]

sure

[north wraith]

Yeah the best part? It’s not even going into the local grid it’s for the a different state I think

[sonic barn]

Also Germany still uses coal for 50% of their power

[wintry dagger]

people say that ukraine is winning but at the same time either russias millitary is absolute shit or a mericle is happening to ukraine

[full fossil]

right as I go to reset my router the speed multiplies by 10

[full fossil]

yup

[wintry dagger]

fine

[full fossil]

both

[north wraith]

But it’s clean coal right /a

[dull granite]

still better than coal tho

[sonic barn]

Green like burning natural gas as per the EU

[full fossil]

no such thing as "clean coal"

[north wraith]

Gotta say Russia failing has been a highlight of the 2020’s

[sonic barn]

I swear the EU making natural gas (methane) a clean energy is stupid

[full fossil]

oh for sure, I just thing nuclear is better in nearly every way, especially when fusion matures

The thing is we'll never get nuclear energy main-stream because of big coal and big oil

[north wraith]

Dude anything is better then coal

[full fossil]

because money is more important than our planet

bass ackwards logic

[dull granite]

it's a good long term investment tho

[sonic barn]

USA sees natural gas as a fossil fuel which it is. The methane they get itself is bad for the environment. However it also comes from crude oil

[north wraith]

Unless you have a stock in coal mining

[wintry dagger]

I mean who needs a good planet if we can just go to mars?

[full fossil]

mhm, not to sound like a broken record, bt MOLTEN SALT REACTORS ARE CHEAP SAFE AND EFFICIENT

[full fossil]

[dull granite]

I dunno why no 'smart and based red pilled millionaire grindset big shot' have invested in nuclear

[full fossil]

get elon on it, wait he has stock in oil

[sonic barn]

Should just make public transport the only transport

[north wraith]

Fuck Tesla and there proprietary plug

[full fossil]

no offense but thatsi just stupid too

[sonic barn]

Make the roads narrower and narrower until everyone stops buying cars

[dull granite]

I wonder when we'll see electric tesla busses

[wintry dagger]

hes too busy messing with his hot wheels cars which are priced like a luxury car while being built like a used 93 civic

Have you ever been on a fast train

[full fossil]

But panel gaps don’t matter! The aesthetic bro1!!11!!

[sonic barn]

There's a rotation and it's much faster than a car

[dull granite]

cars make like 1/4 of world airpollution

[sonic barn]

Like no speed limits

[north wraith]

If we aren’t talking about lithium mining and stuff EVs are greener since power plants are more efficient then your car typically

[full fossil]

I have, they’re good for long distance

[wintry dagger]

tesla owners are more annoying than jeep owners I stg

[full fossil]

Lithium fires

[full fossil]

Yep

at least the ones here are because they're like "mY jEeP cAn gO AnyWherE!!" while going on trails that a stock accord can go on

[north wraith]

[dull granite]

aren't we all tho
cuz we worship nvidia intel and amd

[full fossil]

Not me running about 2000 watts through a cheater plug

[sonic barn]

I'm gonna go to bed

[full fossil]

Idk bout you but I don’t worship them it’s just they’re the only choice for computer parts

[dull granite]

oh yea

[north wraith]

Ngl I could become a jeep guy though so I’m bias

[full fossil]

yep lmao

[wintry dagger]

I dont "worship" anybody I just go for the best price to performance I can get

[north wraith]

There is a wrangler plug in hybrid that looked intresting

[full fossil]

again, same

[wintry dagger]

well my gpus I always go nvidia bc I dont wanna switch but it seems like after my 3070 I might be going amd bc the 4000 series seems god awful

[full fossil]

im not a fanboy for anyone I just go for the best price/performance

[north wraith]

Nah it’s more that I really enjoy the look of jeeps more then is reasonable

[dull granite]

same

[north wraith]

But not blindly

[full fossil]

i just realized that I said the exact same thing as you

[dull granite]

and that's how big tech get ya

[wintry dagger]

they literally all look the same design wise

[full fossil]

why do floatplane servers just not work sometimes

[wintry dagger]

just minor facelifts

[north wraith]

Yeah was about the say lol

[full fossil]

I hate that I have to literally disable things on startup because they're so insistent on updating that they ask for permission on every startup, like stfu fing I used you and dumped you

[north wraith]

Yeah 90% of all cars look the same now

[dull granite]

yoo i won a free iphone 13 lmaooo
wonder why the email is in spam tho

gonna click it real quick

[torn cloak]

lol it was spam most likely

[north wraith]

If I got a jeep it would be for the wrangler look but that not a good reason

[dull granite]

Get a

oh no dont youll get popups and viruses 🤓 🤓

[wintry dagger]

new vws look like hondas

[north wraith]

Better to get an old wrangler and ev it

[wintry dagger]

nah really???

[wintry dagger]

yeah no... thats the dumbest idea ive ever heard

[torn cloak]

at lest open it in a vm lol

[full fossil]

or just dont open it

I mean you can still bring Jerry cans for your EVs back up generator

[full fossil]

that's actually really smart

[dull granite]

you gonna drain the sun

[wintry dagger]

yeah and how long would that take?

for a jerry can all you do it pop it in, for an ev you have to start up the generator and wait 18 hours

[full fossil]

in a survey people genuinely didnt believe in solar because they thought it would drain all the light from the sun

[dull granite]

🤨📸

[north wraith]

You don’t need to stop while the generators running

It’s basicly a hybrid

[full fossil]

then just get a hybrid

[wintry dagger]

I dont think solar is good for houses because its too expensive for such limited use bc solar doesnt last forever

[wintry dagger]

you wouldnt be able to offset the output vs input

[full fossil]

also dumb fuck california is outlawing gas-only vehicles by 20(25)?

more power would be going out than would be going in

[full fossil]

so do diesel locomotives

[wintry dagger]

yeah im only sad bc diesels will be no more :(

cmon! I want my diesel hatchback!

I swear the black five and prr p1 are fucking sexy pieces of engineering

Steam power is my jam

crazy that people built those with basic design tools, and they were insanely powerful and punched way above their weight class

steam engines are so fucking cool

[wintry dagger]

oh god here comes the nerd rant

I think this is a great time to leave

[full fossil]

I fucking love trains

[dull granite]

ppl say "oh 🤓🤓🤓 planes are actually sa🤓fer than cars" yea and trains are more power efficient, make tons of less pollution, and are cool

[wintry dagger]

"ducking"

[north wraith]

I’m in a Facebook amtrack group still

[full fossil]

favorite linkages

[wintry dagger]

planes... are actually safer than cars... there are less plane accidents than road accidents

[full fossil]

eh I dont really like the way most amtrak locomotives look

[north wraith]

Yeah same

[dull granite]

also in Train VS Car accident, Train wins. All the time.

so its much safer

[full fossil]

I have a HO diesel locomotive pair with some rolling stock, want pics?

[north wraith]

Ok I’m not that verse in train lore

[north wraith]

Sure

[dull granite]

and you don't have to be super aware and careful when on a train

[wintry dagger]

get a train model set that goes on ur roof and stuff for cmas

[full fossil]

oh i went too nerd

[north wraith]

Nah nah never I didn’t go nerd enough

I know what you are referring too at least

[full fossil]

I'm also a sucker for good audio gear

[wintry dagger]

I was gonna say I am too until I realised I have shit speakers

[dull granite]

how to save society:

1. wake up
2. kill god

[wintry dagger]

dont get me wrong they're good but not near that quality

[north wraith]

The challenge of turning liner motion into circular Motion was a big deal at the time

[full fossil]

I have really good speakers, but the foam around the speakers are falling apart and my amp is brokey

[full fossil]

mhm mhm

[wintry dagger]

I have bose qc25 for travel and bose companion 2 series iii for main speakers

[dull granite]

1. destroy all cars
2. replace all roads with trains
3. abolish capitalism

Something we just absolute take for granted

[dull granite]

5. profit

my great grandpa was a sucker for trains and audio gear so I have a bunch of audio gear from the 70's and train books

I'm down, but leave some roads I want to street race my monte carlo

WHERE IS MY TRAIN BOX

[weak fox]

its called train entertainment

[north wraith]

I used to have some model trian stuff but I think we lost it in a move. So need to start from scratch I guess

[north wraith]

Idk I was a kid at the time

[near nebula]

smirks in Train simulator 23 and it's stupidly expensive deluxe DLC price

[weak fox]

in germany i used to ride in trains it was nice, every road had a railway for trains next to it.

[full fossil]

my little brother threw my steam locomotive that i dont remember what kind because i was 8 and broke it

[north wraith]

I still have my old wooden train toys though and those have way more sentimental value

[dull granite]

i remember a toy train at exactly 2009 3rd July

[wintry dagger]

that moment when you shit the bed so hard on your design the suv looks better than your sedan

[dull granite]

having expensive car is like having RGB in your pc

[near nebula]

or, you know, some fossilised bone rig...

[dull granite]

and using nocta fans is literally train

[wintry dagger]

I have rgb in my pc but its at least tasteful

[full fossil]

Steam locomotive and track aren’t mine

[north wraith]

Brio that was the brand

Had to Google it

It was at a train show lmao, I bought the black diesel and someone let me test it on their track, made a new friend that day

damn i need a subway cookie rn but closest subway is like 200 miles away

[full fossil]

I want a 3080 but I don’t wanna pay the price for them

thats why I went 3070

[north wraith]

I too want nice thing but lack money

[dull granite]

I want happines in life but I don't wanna pay price for them

[full fossil]

No that’s perfectly valid, my favorite diesel are gas turbines

[near nebula]

that's why I went 5700 XT and I'm not sorry about it

[north wraith]

The chief look is just so iconic though

[full fossil]

Also may be a little biased but I think my model trains are beautiful, love the black and grey

[north wraith]

But would still prefer a honest to goodness steamer

[full fossil]

Me too

[wintry dagger]

They’re just expensive most of the time

[wintry dagger]

you should get a prius

now im gonna be obsessed with steam trains again for the next week, not mad at all

[north wraith]

you should either 1. get some bitches or 2. touch grass

trains are rlly cool but you seem like you never touch grass

[full fossil]

touched grass early, when I ate shit chasing my brother

[full fossil]

hm, interesting to note while y'all are going on about trains, seems Train Simulator 2022 is bundled into Train Sinulator Classic...

[full fossil]

how much

[north wraith]

Bruh why are you so tired today… I stayed up til 2am talking about trains

[full fossil]

nope nope nope im saving for a 3070

my 🐓 is included with me! no ea dlc here!

[wintry dagger]

yeah I got mine for 550

[north wraith]

I haven’t gotten into train sim… yet

[wintry dagger]

but the 550 usd was for the strix model

[full fossil]

i dont know if im gonna buy brand new, ebay prices lookin pretty sexy

[wintry dagger]

isnt the strix one the best of the best 3070?

[wintry dagger]

get used, thats what I did

[full fossil]

railroads online is the best train simulator out there, but its still in its early stages

[north wraith]

Ok I’m close this now I can stop whenever I want I don’t ‘em have a problem

hes playing the system bc he knows how he makes himself look dumb for meme material for more views

they're weirdly comforting, they kinda make me feel special, except for the ones where hes flailing around and crying

early videos are actually pretty great

but he got baaaaaaad

I used to watch ssoyoung when I was in 6th grade and didnt realize what animal abuse was

look at her videos

they're kinda gross idk how she isnt banned

[weak fox]

lol

[full fossil]

also derail valley has mods that add better steam locomotive realism and I unrionically wasted a lot of time playing it

[weak fox]

i mean animal abuse is in our food and i love it. i love eating dead corpses of animals

[full fossil]

thats a terrible way to think about it

[wintry dagger]

same I love dead corpse

so good and tasty

[weak fox]

ikr

[full fossil]

My family mostly raises our own animals, and butcher them, but we treat them with respect and ethically, and when they do eventually die they feel no pain, and we don't waste the meat they provided for us

[weak fox]

the fishing nets that boats use drown the fishes in air and lets them die a miserable death.

[full fossil]

fishes feel no pain

[wintry dagger]

like families doing it are fine but commercial meat farming is what I hate

[wintry dagger]

yeah only physical not emotional pain

[full fossil]

I dont agree with how the meat industry does anything

[weak fox]

thats good.

[full fossil]

BUT we fish our own meat and raise our own animals

[weak fox]

agreed

[wintry dagger]

do you sell meat online?

[weak fox]

i dont like some domestication, like how the pug is a living creature.

[wintry dagger]

I'd like to buy some

[full fossil]

especially when they're too lazy to actually humanely put the animals down so they just suffocate them

[full fossil]

no, sorry

[wintry dagger]

oh

[weak fox]

they took notes from ww2

[full fossil]

literal gas chambers

[weak fox]

animals should also have a rite

like they invoke the 5th

[full fossil]

what I believe is that animals give us nutrients essential for us, so obviously they can be eaten, if its ETHICALLY ACQUIRED

[full fossil]

I dont 100% agree

[weak fox]

agreed

[weak fox]

i mean like a rite to not get unethically killed

[full fossil]

I dont think that animals have every right humans have, considering they aren't conscious in the way we are

[full fossil]

I agree 100%

[wintry dagger]

the only animal that deserves a long painful death are snakes

all snakes can go to hell for all I care

[full fossil]

you mean danger noodles?

[wintry dagger]

LMAO

im gonna call snakes danger noodles now

[weak fox]

if they arent poisonus

[full fossil]

also coyotes, they're invasive fucks that destroy the ecosystem

[wintry dagger]

I only like a single snake and that is my uncles garter snake which is super cute and loves to swim and is super active

[full fossil]

you dont need a hunting license to kill them, thats how bad of a problem they are

[wintry dagger]

kinda cute tbh only snake I'd actually own

[weak fox]

god already teached them a lesson. no need to abuse snakes by throwing rocks at them, they dont even have legs.

[full fossil]

some snakes are cool, 99.9% are bitches

[weak fox]

thats nice

[wintry dagger]

rlly

oh also all spiders can die a long painful death except for "dad" long legs

[weak fox]

the danger noodles are what i dislike the boopy buddies is what i love.

[wintry dagger]

we have like 10 that we keep in our house bc they eat the flies

[full fossil]

I like that people in this server can genuinely debate and have a conversation while some people are like NO YOU'RE STUPID I'M RIGHT AND YOU'RE WRONG LALALALALA

[wintry dagger]

yeah #tech-chat-1 goes hard for amd and it always turns into a fight

[weak fox]

yeah agreed, i dont kill dade long legs because the kill mosquitos and flys :)

[full fossil]

also wasps, they dont help the ecosystem at all and kill bees, fuck wasps all my homies hate wasps

[wintry dagger]

bees are cool wasps are bitches

[full fossil]

fr

I support the forced extinction of coyotes and wasps

loads .45-70

[weak fox]

arguments are to find a middle where both parties can agree, not to censor somebody out because you feel sad.

[wintry dagger]

bees are actually pretty chill we went abandoned hunting in the mountains and we walked through a couple of bees nests since that was the only way to get into a building

[full fossil]

mhm

[weak fox]

agreed

[full fossil]

I hate it when my dad yells at me because im disagreeing with my mom because I'm "arguing" when all im asking is why shes asking me to do something, like im gonna do it I'd just like to know the reason why

[weak fox]

dont kill a bee when it stings you, it can unscrew itself out of you and you wont be in pain and the bee wont die :)

[wintry dagger]

ooo deleted message

[wintry dagger]

thats very very rare though

thats like a 1% chance

[weak fox]

yeah.

[weak fox]

you could wait long enough till the bee decides to unscrew itself

[wispy marsh]

oh my god hell let loose is so good

it is the most intense shit i ever played

[full fossil]

and when he calls me and my siblings idiots :/

[wintry dagger]

I got in trouble once for asking my teacher to use the bathroom bc I had a uti and was too embarassed to tell her and my teacher let my parents know 2 months after the fact and lied and said it was that day

[weak fox]

but is he wrong tho

[wispy marsh]

Using linux, choco and winget lets me appreciate how good command-line package managers are. I don't have to go to a jank store application where they will change the UI every few months

[wispy marsh]

Do your parents and siblings ever talk to you about raw/intimate feelings?

[full fossil]

nope

[mighty pier]

wait what they dont believe adhd is real?

[full fossil]

feelings arent manly

[mighty pier]

im diagnosed with bipolar and adhd trust me it isnt the best combo lmao

[wispy marsh]

I have a book I can recommend you, but I don't want to be dismissive of the situation. May I share it?

[wintry dagger]

yeah so I got diagnosed with adhd and my parents told them and nobody believed it was a real thing suffice to say I dont speak with them anymore

[weak fox]

its not a real physical thing, its a mental thing.

[junior tide]

its real as fuck because kendrick lamar made a song about it

[full fossil]

my dad says a lot of adhd is just because parents dont want to deal with their kids so they put them on meds, which I agree with to be honest, but some adhd is genuine

[full fossil]

sure go for it

[weak fox]

true

[wintry dagger]

well in my case I have very very short attention span so thats why I do homeschool

among other things

[full fossil]

I hyperfocus on things, such as school

[wispy marsh]

https://www.amazon.com/Adult-Children-Emotionally-Immature-Parents/dp/1626251703

[full fossil]

And thats why I skipped 2 years of school

[junior tide]

i dont know your case but i had a very very short attention span and my parents bullied me into going to school, i turned out fine

[full fossil]

oh I cant buy that sorry

ill look for a pirated copy

[weak fox]

your dad is a good person, just keeping you in order. because if you dont have a dad how would you keep yourself in check without knowing when to stop or start. when your dad tells you to stop hes teaching you.

[full fossil]

I believe that

[wispy marsh]

I can't discuss other means of obtaining the book here, but when you have the chance, do pay back the authors for the books that you've read.

[full fossil]

just kinda hard to believe its for my own good when I believe something 100% opposite to him and he says im wrong

[full fossil]

mhm

[wintry dagger]

well I know for sure I have it bc at first I didnt think I did and then I was on adhd meds. changed my life its almost insane

[weak fox]

dad died when i was 4, so i try keeping myself in track. preety hard to do but still a good excercise for me.

[wispy marsh]

Well, I suggest you obtain a copy posthaste.

[full fossil]

[mighty pier]

i dont understand why people think adhd is fake im diagnosed with it it makes me struggle with my emotions, i can never sit still, can never focus unless its a game, get fustrated very easily struggle to understand what people try and explain to me its a nightmare

[wintry dagger]

oh yeah thats another thing I have trouble with is fidgeting

my school banned fidget cubes which is why I went homeschool route

[full fossil]

literally popping the top off a screwdriver and putting it back on

[wispy marsh]

Because people are stuck within their own subjective universe and collective subjective universes, they will force those onto others.

[wintry dagger]

I leave my logitech g920 pedals on my floor for something quiet to press while im working

[full fossil]

why the fuck? if it isnt causing any problems andis helping then why? prolly someone on a power trip

[mighty pier]

i have one of them fidgeting cubes where its just like a little toy to help

[wintry dagger]

well bc everybody had one so it became an issue

[wispy marsh]

If you're interested, give MindWar by Michael Aquino a read

[brisk axle]

[weak fox]

yeah thats horrible. thats how cancel culture is.

[full fossil]

I have a pair of chopsticks on my desk because I like tapping them together

and pretend drums

[wintry dagger]

lol nice

[wispy marsh]

I am not familiar with the term, but such things have existed for as far as anyone can remember

[full fossil]

if it isnt causing issues i dont get it were people abusing it?

[wintry dagger]

oh also I got some wierd putty type stuff that doesnt pick anything up or dry out its super calming and I fidget with it while reading pdfs and such

[weak fox]

cancel culture is when someone says something like 'OMG YOUR SO WRONG SMH, STOP SPREADING THESE HATEFUL LIES'

[full fossil]

when people "cancel" something because it disagrees with their personal ideologies

[wintry dagger]

yeah people would get ones that are annoying af and would be super loud

[weak fox]

yeah

[wispy marsh]

Ah, gaslighting

[full fossil]

when the actions of a few effect everyone

[mighty pier]

anyone with adhd ever get the urge to run and just not stop even when im tired as hell or is that just me?

[wintry dagger]

only person I believe with cancelling is the writer of harry potter I forgot her name but shes suuper against lgbtq

[wispy marsh]

So cancel culture is the new term for gaslighting

[full fossil]

""but gaslighting is a made up word hur dur" all words are made up

[wispy marsh]

Words change meaning over time

[full fossil]

jk rowling?

[wintry dagger]

yeah her

[weak fox]

sometimes i wish the whole world would have peace.

[wispy marsh]

70 years ago in the fifties, g4y meant happiness

[full fossil]

I used to play a trumpet but it was school property and I got expelled

[lilac sage]

Actially I think just the T

[weak fox]

true

[weak fox]

what a school :/ my school used to let me bring in my ukelele to play some ac/dc on it.

[wintry dagger]

just you I think, but if you have adhd I suuuper recommend some thinking putty since it doesnt stick to anything and you can throw it in ur pocket, and if you forget about it and put it through the washer/dryer it doesnt cause a mess and just pulls straight out normally

[lilac sage]

Convert that into push up energy.

[full fossil]

gym bros be like

[wintry dagger]

I got expelled for having a slipknot tee-shirt because my principle saw "depictions of mass murders"

[full fossil]

im not making fun f gym bros, they're cool as fuck

[wintry dagger]

my parents werent too happy about that to say the least

[full fossil]

wtf

[mighty pier]

its like ive always got energy thats probably why ive got insomnia also lmao

[weak fox]

...

[full fossil]

I got expelled because I repressed my emotions and eventually snapped and started drinking on school grounds

im sober now :/

[wintry dagger]

my principle is also a dumbass 20 year old mexican lady who has an iq of 2 so im not too suprised

[weak fox]

the school system is outdated

[wintry dagger]

[full fossil]

when the teacher has room temperature iq in celsius

[weak fox]

the american school food is also autdated lol

i learn more off of the internet

[wintry dagger]

my school has open gates so we can get whatever for lunch and the school pays for all of it so you can get sushi for free

[full fossil]

[wintry dagger]

[weak fox]

[full fossil]

but im too stupid to go to a 2 year JC course

[full fossil]

oh sit I need to brush my teeth

[wintry dagger]

yeah basically the best way to do it from what ive seen from personal experience is to do night classes, so my tech class is from 5:30-8 so that super helps

[elfin python]

i could go to the 3 year course though
but im not allowed to since im on conditional offer to an engineering school

[weak fox]

that reminds me of a eminem song where he raps about people standing over his Shi! when he walks out the bathroom.

[wintry dagger]

...

[weak fox]

its a good song

[weak fox]

oh alright

[wintry dagger]

[full fossil]

Im supposed to get my bachelors in computer science but I'm starting to second-guess myself

[elfin python]

if i pass my GCE O LEVELS, i'm taking a diploma course
it's around the level of associates i think

[weak fox]

ngl i love 90s songs

new songs kinda suck for me

like mf doom is good

[full fossil]

90's and early 2000's rap and metal are the fucking best

[wintry dagger]

[full fossil]

[wintry dagger]

1660 super is where its at imo

[full fossil]

the 1630 was a spit in the face to consumers

[wintry dagger]

but at the same time you can get a 1080 for the same price used which is much MUCH better

[full fossil]

im running a 1660ti and it still runs 1080p great

[wintry dagger]

I used a 970 for my monitor and it ran all games on max except for textures

[mystic ivy]
