I'm sure even a 750 would
It's a little quicker than a 4070 Ti Super
Somebody Should give me 7900xt money
Just keep it in mind if you can't wait anymore lad
Or get open box xtx
I'll start planning another build and possibly go into debt to make ot happen. 🙃
Links for good ones
I'm gonna get a 5090 on my 850w GT with my degraded 13600kf at 1440p
Nah just swap the gpu honestly
You'll be fine
As long as the case has space
Why
Gaming
Time to flex that mines isn’t degraded
Phanteks p500a
Def fits
Plenty of room
~~send me the old gpu
~~
It'll run well
So look for an xtx?
7900XT imo
Higher you're definitively cpu bound
7900XT is barely on the limit to me
What about a GRE?
COD is also extremely AMD biased overall
Good luck finding one
They disappeared off the market again
Used is def possible tho
Isn't this the 2019 cod?
If it's not the newest one then they all have like a 30% radeon bias lmao
I can still get a GRE
but it's like BARELY cheaper than an XT so not at a good price
XTX outruns a 4090 at times
US
Ik
There’s a few for $800
Ha
Just saying that we're a little behind
But like
Paying 95% of the XT price for a GRE makes no sense
I feel privileged this time as I have zero intent to upgrade
Considerable, even non h
I need upgrades
When you have a 4090 it's easy to skip a gen
But used prices sound messed up rn
Were
Have you looked now
Cos I haven't
And every gpu I've heard so far is hyper inflated


Can't wait for 4 more months of this
I give this earth 2 more months
@mortal grail I need your superior finding skills to find me a cheap 5700xt
Anything from JP is gouged
JP is gouged in general
The island was gouged off of china
It's prophetic
Do b650 have gen 5 nvme support??
Yes
How fast is it over gen4??
Tiny
Do you work a video editing job
If your answer is anything less than "yes 40 hours a week" then it makes zero difference and you're wasting money into the wind
Go gen 3/4
Gen 3 is still 100% fine for 99% of people
@mortal grail i sent you a FR i had a few questions if that's cool
Sure
Aight 👍🏿
Bro seriously
I think pcie 5 came too early
Very few people will actually benefit from that
True apparently when a new gen comes out the drives run really hot
Derbauer was saying they use the same controllers
But they are like overclocking them basically because a new one didnt come out yet
So you gotta wait a little bit for a new controller so it can handle the speeds like how the previous generation did
Which sucks because not all boards are loaded with them
Itx boards are now having more than one m.2 but mine has one rn
A lot of boards have two
But I am also seeing 3 a lot too. maybe more have 3 nowadays
Lol better buy than 50 series rn
True
Oh its not the super
Meh iirc they barely had a perf dif

Well Hackermon, a bug bounty hunter, figured out a "0-click deanonymization attack" ...
i wonder if the 9070xt wil be gen 5
my gen5 slot is being useless rn 😦

7700xt spiderman to, high preset fsr 3.1
im confused on why people hate upscaling, i see one thing that loksd weird and its so easy to just ignore it
Let's see some screenshots in motion buddy
Motion clarity is terrible with temporal methods
Transformer model does improve motion clarity quite a bit and hopefully AMD will follow suit
give me a second, i gotta record, then downscale and lower bitrates and stuff cause i record high
Don't record
why
Take screenshots
Recording is gonna have way more compression than a screenshot
Ok fair
There's lots of imgsli of motion vs still image available on a subreddit I can't link here because of stupid filter
I suppose spiderman does benefit from you not being terribly close to things, so textures blurring isn't as much of an issue
note to self, 10 seconds is alot
this server really doesnt have nitro boost
goin do a trick, upload to one that does then send link here
okokay so the file i sjust too big in general 
yeah details in motion are just blegh
i still think its very much playable and people are too picky,
playable? yes, absolutely.
Should developers and graphics card manufacturers be leaning on it as hard as they currently are? absolutely not.
Nah its just a small platform
It used to be even smaller last year
I remember going there a long time ago
The ltt giveaway collab grew their website a lot
Dude I love upscaling how can you not love this man
Dude come on
i like the fps im getting
im playing high settings at 60-70fps
sometimes 90 in the right areas
back before upscaling I'd bet a 7700xt-equivalent GPU could run AAA titles at 60 FPS without upscaling
Funny how the memes came out about extending the life of their older cards but there is actually a push to upgrade even more a few years later
At first thats how upscaling was, because when upscaling was newer, games were still made well
o i can

i just use upscaling for more fps
60 is 🤮 to me
I mean in that clip you were getting like 60-65
Newest game I bought was from 3 years ago
Thanks for making bad games developers
Saving me so much money
...
im getting MORE fps with fsr off
wtf is this madness
and my gpu is working not as hard...
okay note to self, fsr is broken
What is so demanding in that scene bruh
literally just buildings
You should be getting like 50% more than that
If games now were made like back then at least
i have a feeling after a few more updates this game will be great for performance
it was designed to run on a ps5 afterall
"ignore my laugh" ahh 🙏😭
Theirs artifacts rn lmfao
ye when the 1080 ti was the highest end gpu lol
games become more “unoptimised” once devs realise they dont have to make it run on lower end hardware
Th can’t find a no regular sized screwdriver in my house
Wanna borrow mines
Like a lot of it is tool less but I still gotta screw a few things in
And me not being at 100% I ain’t fumbling around with a tiny non mag screwdriver
Was thinking about getting a some 99% while I was out too
But like idk if it’s best for me to drive
Guys what kind of game is death stranding?
walking sim
One you play for 5 seconds
You're stranded and also dead somehow
Bruh
Ah yes an activity so foreign to the avg gamer than they have to simulate it

No offense guys and to me
can't tell if ultrawide camera or you sit like 4 feet from your monitor
ok lol
Um
How bad is 2ft
It looks like 2-3 feet from my end
The mouse is probably something like 5”
Hm
What I’m hearing is, buy 5080 and overclock it
There are better cards for less
I wonder if Nvidia will play with clock speeds in newer drivers
You can bet 4090 for less?
Maybe an AMD 7900XTX or something
weird
I wonder if Nvidia will get more gpus to go with their newer drivers 
Womp womp
does this count ai frames or no
But it’s not better?
It’s competitive
It’s not better
I c
No
Those were the Canada and Mexico tariffs
There is no MFG in 3D Mark
theres a new conspiracy apparently some dude's 4090 started getting lower clocks and consuming less power after a recent driver update
Speedway the 5080 is 10% behind
Which lines up with the other 4K benchmarks
Sounds like PR is cpu bound tbh
Wouldn't be surprised it's like a 2018 benchmark lol
damn wtf happened
xbox happened
and also people finally waking up and realized cod hasnt been good in a long time
what did they do

Lot of things
I like cod…
id say xbox is good for cod. they brought back the servers for the old cods, gamepass access making it cheaper, sales. but also just bad cause cod dont do good games and make bad decisions
coms ban for bad language on a game that built a reputation because everyone loved that you can say bad language is crazy ngl
Playing spider man 2 right.. why didn’t they remove scorpions suit??
Especially after they added a hostage system of all things
also dumb that they keep only bringing back some maps for as additional content instead of just having them in already and adding in new actual maps
Old xbox 360 lobbies were the greatest comedy back in the day of old youtube
Xbox mic days were peak
pretty
have fun
the beginign of the game is full of stuttres and random fps drops, as i progress the fps seems to be stable
also upscaling gives me less fps
:))
LOL
one of the more realistic looking server racks i've seen in a game, but still a few things strange
- glass panel???
- hotswap drive carriers on the 4u? systems don't seem right
- unenclosed breaker panel right next to the racks, blocked by crates
- wasting space by spacing the rack units strangely (why are the 4u units like 2u spaced apart???)
also absolutely atrocious wiring in the background, looks so inefficent 
idfk whats up but fsr 3.1 delivers 50-60fps, native?? 60-80fps...
can somebody explain how
Did you get a 5090 yet?
like wtf was the electrician smoking
magic smoke
GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060 in March, claims Chaintech The main supplier of graphics cards for Colorful. Chinese company Colorful is the main customer of Chaintech, a Taiwan-based company that used to manufacture its own graphics cards. The last GPU released under the Chaintech brand was likely from the NVIDIA GeForce 200 series […]
RTX 5060ti slower than a 3060ti
imagine
lol despite some driver concerns it holds great value than whatever the heck nvidia outputs on the lower end
I’d rather have bad drivers and 12gb vram over good drivers and 8gb
i can definitely deal with intel's shenanigans since i both have a raptorlake chip + radeon card
these drivers don't faze me
👍
build combos ranked (don't take at face value)
- Intel CPU + Radeon GPU
- AMD CPU + Nvidia GPU
- AMD CPU + Radeon GPU
- AMD CPU + Intel GPU
- Intel CPU + Intel GPU
oh i forgot Intel CPU + Nvidia GPU
gotta wait for nvidia cpu
👀
I’m still astonished that playing with this 5700g is so much smoother than the 8500g
with or without gpu?
G
i see
Good gpu
I need to help my friend get off his rx570 lmfao
Not sure how you do that with a gpu but

Lmfaoo
Idk if that’s worth
no dont think so
seems to close to much fastre
Hahaha they still have 8gb 5060 Tis
or slightly faster
Wtf this gen is such a crap gen
should have been a 12gb card
the more you buy the more i skip VRAM
I look forward to nvidia's sales numbers
I’ve been looking around $110
these sheep buy anything
I can't WAIT to see how much people who ramble on about this crap don't vote with their wallet
oof, tough sell
might as well get a 1070 or omething 
8500g has a lot going against it, including limited PCIe lanes
dontforget the C cores
That’s like, 10% less perf
It was so bad
u can find it at the price point ur liking much easier 
(If anyone of you had a 5700XT, lmk)
found this on mercari, slightly faster than a 5700xt
🤮
only 2 full fat cores
disgusting
mobile ah cpu
I need a similar to 5700xt, at $120>
something similar huh
just save ur money bruh
lol
I gotta afford a van part too, and a new PSU, and case
get to saving
work overtime
idk
oo, how much they pay?
-$1300
... thats cheap
It’s an IT course
damn
lol I paid $110 for MI50 which would curb stomp that thing
i almost forgor about radeon instinct
I'm going to get an MI6 eventually just for the funny name
can you even game on those cards?
MI50 yes, idk about MI6
i see
Time to game on a K80
MI50 has a mini DP out and supports DirectX 12
which is weird for a compute card
yep that's what I bought
it sits right there next to the 5700xt
came in excellent shape
nice
except in fp64 compute it will crush even a 5090
its a specialty card
to game on it is a waste of what it can really do
power of a compute accelerator
lol whatever
its basically just telling you not to complain about issues before updating driver lol
too bad that their recent driver is not whql certified (optional)
i get the same thing
yea i remember
i just use what eve default is
hecks out
im using TAA for this
dont get me wrong, its an amazing game
just has perforamnce sissues
but not major ones that make u quit the entire game
alr
ima beat it, trust
looks very good
hi gents, any coupon codes? about to drop 1600 on a monitor and was wondering if theres at least a 5% code available? anything helps tbh
Don't think Newegg does global coupons
We won't know 💀💀
lmaoo ok thanks bros
👍🎅🏿
What monitor?
Before you buy
Asus 27 oled 480hz
model number?
Before you say it yes monitor is 1k but $380 are taxes and $280 is shipping
It’s that new asus oled
Yes
That’s very expensive ngl
average asus product
I was debating between that one and LG one but apparently Asus best one so
Send us the link
Well they all share same price ; The rog, the inzone, and the LG
They’re all $999 or $1100
is it a 4K display?
damn
It’s expensive cause it’s oled and the only 480hz oled
4k is capped at 240hz and tbh i play competitive so i wouldnt use it properly
Theres only 3, but yeah
Rog one and Inzone m3s are best ones
Rog wins bc of the oled care tech they have


Idk it’s up to u. U can get a 360hz oled for half the price or a 540hz tn/ips
is high end TN still trash?
I cant stand tn
or are they like
Hasn’t been in years
barely tolerable
And ips i have a 360.. just wanna try oled and 2k
And tbh, oled 360hz here ends up at $1100-$1200
So i figured, why not the extra $400 for a newer better panel
Fair enough I guess
it's like the price of an entire monitor
unless you're winning competitions, i dont really see a point in over 240hz panels
💀
It feels smoother
I cap my 300Hz display to 60Hz
Idc about winning personally I do that anyway 
Im just balling out theres nothing that makes sense in this purchase if im being honest
by like 4ms
for efficiency
TN is trash can confirm, I live there 
er, less than that for 480 to 240 i think
the thing is
lemme calculate
in a couple years you'll see a $400 monitor that outperforms that monitor
Eh
Probably
maybe not $400
But you can say that with most things
It being glossy is probably the biggest pro
2ms lower latency between 240 and 480
Even Linus noticed a difference and he’s kind of a boomer
So the 480 is definitely something
he noticed a difference between 240 and 480?
it's a lot of money to spend for a monitor
Yeah and 360 to 480
Linus is not a benchmark for the average person
anything past 240Hz and the prices skyrocket
Im aware, i just wanna be able to say i got the best setup lmao
surely there's other things you can upgrade with that money
like a better gpu, ram, ssd
I mean pc maybe, peripheral wise no way
I mean it's your money but there are a lot more things that money could go towards
But i dont need a better pc for this current setup imo
how 💀 i barely even notice the difference between 144 and 240, which is like a 4ms difference, so that would be double the difference of 240 to 480, and even less from 360 to 480 🧐
4ms difference
144 feels delayed if you’ve seen 240, it’s weird
I care more about the oled and 2k than the diff between 360 and 480, but if im buying a new display might as well get the one with better hz just because
4ms more delayed assuming the display driver doesnt have a significant amount of latency added from that
I guess cpu or graphic card, but i will upgrade that soon enough
I tend to blow money on unnecessary stuff
man 2
how do you expect to convey this on a digital video lmao
also i have a 240hz monitor
You can still see it. It’s like there’s more of the cursor on the screen 
Can i just ask, what the hell is that mouse cable
Oh that
degloved wire
That for lower emi
???
Call me schizo but i can notice the diff between every HZ jump if its more than 120+ difference
Ofc you gotta somewhat “look for it” but its noticeable
That’s perfectly normal lol
Wouldn’t be normal if you couldn’t
Don’t listen to editors
But can you notice 120hz from 121hz?????
They use 4k with vsync on at max settings and 60 fps with stock bloated windows and dual ccd amd CPU’s
Umm what
Something to do with shielding between the wires, I can’t remember exactly what it was for
i did the calculations a while ago (of raw latency of refresh rate, ignoring gtg latencies and such)
First off, looks like reverse psychology, second emi typically isn’t a huge issue for digital signal
i just see regular wires with no shielding?
meanwhile I just gimp my laptop by capping it to 60Hz
honestly seperated wires just give a bigger chance of catching on something and breaking 
They’re more separated but also less drag from cable 
hi
Looks like a nice album cover
beer
no
this is just doubling down on bad taste
wait that says beer can chicken no beer flavored
Thats compltely different than terrible beer flavored

Ew wtf
Diy ac polarity tester frfr
(don't do this, just stick the multimeter probes into the socket without this nonsense that is way more likely to cause you to be shocked, even with wagos)
How you're supposed to do it
Or the more convenient method
https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat try running this
Kek I know it’s bad, nature of cable
iv been having problox problems for a while now
sense wensday
i ❤️ xfinity
atleast my ping isnt like this unloaded
that would be your router, also your router is somehow worse than my isp router
unloaded latency would be your isp's fault, the loaded latency would be mostly your router's fault
which technically would be your isp's fault if you use your isp router
yeah i use their stuff, i think i found the problem
i replaced a switch, and now i have problem
troubleshooting shows this
looks like its a everything is a problem rn problem
anythign comcast.net problem
1, wifi repeaters are poopoo, and 2, wired connection
problem started this wensday sooo this is very fun
Aren’t there some repeaters that allow wired though
wifi repeaters are genuinly not recommended, but network bridges have some use
all repeaters do is clutter the wireless spectrum and cause ping issues and stuff
avoid at all cost unless u HAVE to
like my dads house has a spot with good signal, move a few feet to the left, signal dropped, sitaution where its useful
a small step above ethernet hubs lol
o lord
at least the industry abandoned ethernet hubs decades ago lol
imagine
you're the only one who has sent something that isnt using the isp router though afaik 
I use my ISP's router lol
Asus really made a spider router lol
damn
60% packet loss is nuts
that's pretty good for an isp router then lmao
isnt that the $1k router
Good performance. Poor amount of features 🫠
or near 1k
Can't even put it in Bridge mode
💀
$700
well, better than it having terrible performance and also not having bridge mode
I swear ISPs are in a competition to make the most limited router
close enough
yeah but I want my own DNS server. Can't even do that
would rather invest in some ubiquiti gear at that price point
💀
can you disable the dhcp server
if you can, then you can set up a different dhcp server and set dns that way
hmmmm idk why I didn't think of that
parents might get angry though that some of their stuff my suddenly not be working 💀
sometimes people (including me) forget that the dhcp server also configures dns

me trying to figure out what the issue was and then realizing that i didnt add a dns server to the dhcp server
bruh ngl for the longest time I didn't know why my Nginx Proxy Manager instance wouldn't work. My dumb ass didn't know you needed a DNS server. My favorite slap on the head story to tell everybody
I felt like an idiot as soon as that information hit me 💀
💀
Speaking of DNS, I kinda wanna see if I can put Linux on my Xbox One S
what does that have to do with dns
Imagine
nothing at all I just wanna throw Linux on something that shouldn't have Linux
💀
Xbox One S as a DNS server
OpenWRT
Pregnancy test
💀
Put Linux on an Arduino if you want a real challenge
bruh
already gave my PS4 to my gf. That's not an option anymore
My brother has his PS4 though so hmmmm
just needs to execute on the microcontroller itself, add RAM ICs or whatever else
modify the kernel to work on ps3
Is it even possible
it would be impossible to do without adding something lol
but yes it is, just EXTREMELY hard
I know it's possible to run linux on some variants of the esp32
I have a 2014 Mac Mini in my closet hmmmm
not crazy enough though
Actually would be the least crazy thing. Basically giving it a new life atp
worlds slowest linux install
esp32 is cake compared to that link lol
I gave my gf a MacBook recently and she gave me back her Dell. I think imma do something with that
Now to decide which distro
(And no I'm not doing Mint)
Arch?
templeos
TempleOS eventually lol
good thing it wasnt my end
The fact that Arch isn't on this random list of the best daily Linux distros absolutely means that I should install Arch on this thing
i was not in the modo to take the modem to the xfinity store

yes xfinity man, im having problems, gives me the same exact modem back
yet Manjaro is there...
and not EndeavourOS which is probably better than Manjaro anyways
iv been running this pretty consistantly
the funniest thing is there being a torrent for bittorrent
you gotta torrent to start torrenting

Depends. Someone who is a beginner at Linux but understands enough concepts will still be ok.
Assuming they also RTM
That is probably for switching torrent clients/updating
im surprised torrenting doesnt have more limitations
Arch has a metric crap ton of mirrors
considering its typical use
This is not a bad thing
oh okay
2005
Yeah I'm putting Arch onto my Ventoy drive.
never used it 💀
Te quiro?
Oh
I want to
Nvm
huh?
how would you limit a peer to peer network without just fully blocking it
huh? 😭
also torrenting is a very valuable resource outside of it's not-as-legal use
having decentralized storage of a software is very useful
I have a girlfriend
you're less reliant on a single server to distribute the same copy of a file to many users (lower costs)
and with a bunch of people seeding, it also means that hackers can't gain access to a storage server and completely delete everything, since someone would have a copy that's seeding as well
Start installing Arch Linux

This be a decent hard drive for my plex server?
I haven't had to bad of luck with wd drives so far with my almost 6 year old one running fairly fine
Go with a WD Red
What's different between them?
If you're serious about storing stuff, there's also these:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08H1T666Y?ie=UTF8&th=1
I recently got a pair of these lol
I mean my library it not even at 40 movies yet and I'm using a Das and just needed something to store the movies on since the m.2 on the mini pc is getting full
I mean yeah the 4TB Blue won't be that bad
You'll fill that thing pretty quick and realize that you should've gone with a WD Red or something else meant for a NAS/DAS setup anyways
(I thought 2TB was enough lol)
current wd red line is SMR
Blue is okay if it's just a single drive. I wouldn't try to do RAID with it though
red plus is cmr
cmr is better for write
smr is fine for read, though terrible for write
tbf a plex server is unlikely to be writing often unless you need to add movies
The Blue might be better then I guess
I ended up putting Fedora on this laptop (like any sane person would do)
wow people even bought u[p the weird blower style 7900xtx
wd red is made to be in a nas enclosure though, i believe it has better resistance to vibrations
though i dont think wd blue would be significantly worse?
That's also a 5400rpm drive just btw
For just a little over double your money, you can have a faster drive with triple the storage

Literally just installed Fedora like an hour ago. Late night activities
cant forget templeos
NOOOOOOO
that's what she said (but not with operating systems)
YO PAUSE
Yeah I use Fedora. Yeah I go to the website to download and install the program. What's your problem?
the only reason you do that is because your package manager is balls
(but not with operating systems)
Y'know what I am as a Windows user?
Not effing insane lmao
Honestly I despise the "culture" of buttholery around Linux
i made another superset of that meme
Calling another community "buttholery" is kinda buttholery imo
hopefully we can all agree on that
"Oooooh you're trying to get into Linux, how dare you not know already how to perfectly use this incredibly complex and obscure command line prompt, you imbecile" be like
And that's an actual post I saw on a forum
thats mostly the arch community though
i apologize for my message the timing was bad i had not read your message before sending that
I just don't like the snobbery some of them loudly express
theyre only helpful if your asking something they dont already know
Oh no it's accurate lmao
I can take a joke
Fixed it
how humble
💀💀💀
IQ is signed int, so Windows IQ actually really high
oh brother we got a computer architect over here 😭
Y'know why IQ is very funny?
People throw it around to show their "intellect"
But how many high IQ people actually know how to properly file taxes?
That's not like a professional taxman
Me IQ is 1, super high, I is taxes myself
Me don't know how to have good talk with strangers
To the best of my knowledge IQ tests measure a very narrow slice of the human mind
And such they kinda feel like a tool for division
its just pattern recognition right?
Also I have a very hard time with recognizing rough estimates of imperial length units
mhm
You having high IQ doesn't mean you'll realize you're about to be robbed as you turn into the back alley wearing a 25k dollar Rolex watch
So it's like
12 inches in a foot, yeah good okay. Ask me to guestimate how many inches something is without a ruler is pain
Be street smarts, and maybe some smarts smart
Only smort people dont know imperial
It's easy
12 inches in a foot, however many feet in a mile, so that times 12 inches in a mile
Easy!
Just measure stuff in George Washington per Bald Eagles fr
They also aren't a foot long
one of my professors said, if you're getting good grades but can't talk to people, go out and party a bit more. the hit to your grade is worth it if you can build people skills
It's stupid easy, stupid!
damn i've been lied to all my life
THIS
Subway's footlongs are like more like 11 inches
They are like 11 inches or something yeah?
People skills and connections are worth SIGNIFICANTLY more in life than a 0.1 increase in GPA
Prolly closer to 10 now-a-days I'd imagine
Perhaps
This is what I fill my head with. Video games, random bits of lore and history and the length of a Subway footlong 
You will live the rest of your life with the connections you build in university
And you'll likely get opportunities to make money with those connections
can't believe they raised the prices of footlongs and lied about them actually being twelve feet
i miss five dollar footlongs
Did somebody say $12 ten inches?!?!?!
Everybody loves then
Foot long bill
If you include a normal amount of deli 'meat' it'll be 3 dollars more 
Put a whole onion on my sandwich
12 dollars for a 10 inch sub with 5 slices of ham and one and a half slices of cheese 
Don't worry it is a new item. 30% more
Just don't ask more what
Would you like to pay 25% extra for a poorly put together sandwich that had very little besides veggies so we can skip out on paying our employees?!?!
subway should be subject to the same scrutiny as the ruler manufacturers
Subway should be bankrupt
i feel like i should blame mcdonalds for raising prices
Delete it
Delete them all
McDonalds more like McDon'tAlls, Taco Bell more like Taco Bull, get rid of them all
they say that you can make stuff for cheaper at home than going to fast food
but i wonder if getting the ingredients and doing it yourself is actually cheaper
People coming in for a $9 crunchwrap supreme that is thinner than a pancake and is 3 hours old and be like this is okay. Thank you for letting me waste money
If a burger from McDonald's costs $5, you can buy the ingredients from a grocery store for maybe like $25. But you can have 10 times the amount of burgers, which would be $50 in McDonald's burgers
That used to be false, fast food used to be so cheap that it was actually cheaper than cooking yourself
Unless you bought everything in bulk
But fast food is now trying to make more profit and raising prices while also lowering quality even more
If you get the $6 combo in the Taco Bell app you can get a full meal which contains the crunchwrap supreme. Don't know how to top that at my house
You can. It is still garbage
I thought the crunchwrap supreme had a lot of stuff in it
its gotten flatter
Fast food companies be like: We'll fix customers being pissed about out prices by signing a $200mil contract with random singer to sell a preexisting combo meal
for McDonald's ads I always thought even the burger displayed in the ad looked terrible
like they even need advertising
they could stop altogether and lower ther prices by whatever $300mil a year and make more money
why do they pay their CEOs so much money when that money can be spent somewhere else
starbucks CEO got paid $100 million upon getting the job...and can work from home
what do they even do? they just have other people do the work for them
What a sigma
what does the hiring process for a ceo even look like?
If I were a ceo I’d pay someone 20% of my salary to do my job for me
Bribe the board
if i was the CEO i'd be like the owner of arizona tea
keep cheap prices, because no one needs to pay more than they should
Taco Bell has gone through major portion shrinkage and price increases for about 6 or so years now. YumYum brands or whatever they are called uses TB as a cash cow to make up for their other chains failing to make enough money
speaking of YumYum Brands
KFC everywhere but America is profiting and doing experimenting with their menu and they're overall really great
but in American KFC they're failing, not experimenting at all and now they're advertising themselves as a place to get cheap food
KFC's their cashcow but not profiting in America....when it came from America
KFC here is anything but cheap
I did say advertising themselves
Bruh
But yes KFC is expensive, they use the crappy store bought chickens so it's small and tastes like soy, and they don't even have cashiers anymore it's all digital displays you order on
COVID really screwed up humanity
what part of the US are you in
because KFC near me still has cashiers and stuff, same with taco bell
It isn't. They have nearly 3.6x more KFC stores but only pull in about 35% more money with them compared to TB
And Pizza Hut is a disaster
fried chicken sounds good rn
Nearly 20k stores and PH can't even pull in 40% of what TB does
don't know where to get good fried chicken
Me sending misinformation on the internet
Spreading
jollibee is goated. churches chicken second
in terms of fast food chicken
actual restaurant, gl with finding a good one
I wish Jollibee was in my area, I'd happily spend my money for their Fried Chicken weekly
fried chicken is so expensive
what about popeye's?
You're expensive
Their quality varies so much that I give them a 3/10
you can afford me reeeeee
No I cant
i like popeyes over others.
you keep asking for a 5090
