Imagine your husband is an abusive gang banger who beat the shit out of you so badly that you got an order of protection against him and the government not only removes him from your life for you, they remove him from your entire country. The world knows you got the order of protection and you know the world knows it. And yet you publically beg for him to be released and returned to you. When questioned by the press about your order of protection, you refuse to answer it. Women absolutely confound me.

Somewhere, a woman in an abusive relationship who's waiting for her moment to escape probably wants to strangle this skank.

I think your overlooking the most obvious reason she's doing all this.

The bitch is getting bank.

Not only is she sucking up the Go Fund Me money but I have zero doubts she's getting money from the Dems on the side to keep up the weepy tears plus shes probably getting appearance fees each time she does something public.

No doubt she's happy El Beaner is out of her life but for someone of her limited skills this is the lottery win of her lifetime, if El Beano was to be brought back they be together for all of a month or two before she booted him out again. the second the spotlights moved onto the next cause she'd book it with all that money leaving the wife beating, drug dealing, human trafficking, gang banger back on his own free to keep doing his thing.

Could the Democrats have picked a worse hill to die on?

Not surprising those who make a big deal out of "toxic masculinity" are silent about gangs like MS-13.
 
So now that he's admitted that he's a pederast, can we chuck him?
What the fuck does he think is good about Han girls? This is a historical photo of an actual Chinese emperors’ concubines.

Even if Elon’s autism makes him susceptible to BPD bitches, he has better aesthetics

And this is what xi Jingping is/did once upon a time banging

Don’t fall for the douyen and WeChat filters. They come built into the phone
 
And a lot of that shit was being made in other countries, like Japan. Sony, Nintendo, Takara, Subaru, Yokohama, to name a few companies. Remember how science fiction in the 80s and 90s portrayed Japan’s corporate dominance over the United States? That was thought of as prophecy at the time.
And Japan was/is friendly with the west, had much more success in elevating their people to a higher quality of life, and did everything they could to fight the crushing tide of the population crisis as they could, making massive efforts with automation too. And they still stagnated. I don’t think the average person understands how bad these Asian demographic problems are. And China’s ongoing one looks even worse with the projection, that’s not even considering all the other flaws of the CCP’s great grorious government!
 
you know.. solid point. I've seen some good prices on midrange PC's near me on Marketplace.
It's a subtle effect, but even buying second hand benefits the original manufacturer, because there being a second hand market for goods means that first hand buyers can justify a higher initial price because they'll "just sell it on when they release a new one" (and are likely already selling their old one to subsidize the new one).
 
If the jobs only exist because of tariffs isn't that not just relying on the teat of the government ? If you want people to feel a sense of pride in work why not jsut have employment requirements attached to government housing programs then.
This has got to be the worst attempted "gotcha" I've ever seen in a "debate". It's the kind of argument a 6 year old would make arguing with their Kindergarten teacher. This post is proof that this chimp isn't a "debate bro" like he claims, he's just a tard looking to disrupt discussion here and it would be nice if people stopped wasting thread space by arguing with him, it just makes you look dumb for not realizing this dude is only here to disrupt. Or he should be thread banned since he actively tries to purposely ruin the thread.

Why should I have to ? If the government raises your income tax by say 20% and you can't afford groceries why not "adapt" and "learn" to function better in a calorie shortage and to scavenge for food
And here he is trying to claim learning how a pc works to play games on it is luderally the same thing as scavenging for food. This dude is deeply unserious and arguing with him is a waste of time.

People are not going to buy your dusty old computer that you probably mined crypto on. Especially not if games like GTA 6 come out and their minimum specs demand a 24 VRAM.
 
https://youtube.com/watch?v=1W_mSOS1QtsGamers Nexus released an in-depth video on the impact of tariffs on the hobbyist PC building space, which extends to electronics in general.
Many companies were interviewed. This also includes a logistics and freight handling company. The representative explained the tariffs very well.
Affordable computing died ages ago, it's quite literally a joke that graphics cards are impossibly high priced. This is the death of enthusiast computing.
 

Wait how could these possibly be being listed? The 50 series is out now! Don't these people know?!
This isn't a technology general so I'm not going to make fun of you for not understanding why the 4070 is undesirable. I will let the long-haired guy one of you linked earlier to start this discussion explain all of the problems instead. If that's too long: Nvidia is in the business of providing less and charging more.
We can run the goalposts of this discussion toward other graphics cards, but all the ones that might be useful are sold well above MSRP by scalpers. Even secondhand ones (which you receive no guarantee will function well nor for a long time) are well above the $1500 range on average.
 
Trump's lawsuit against the DNC law firm Perkins Coie got assigned to a corrupt Obama judge:

lol it used to be that once you got a "federal government job" you were set for life no matter how poorly you perform. Now that Trump's killed that gravy train, it looks like it's the judges lining up to take full advantage of the gig.

C'mon, Congress, just gut the federal judiciary and start over. It'll be really fuckin' funny. Do it!
 
I'm convinced every American company crying about tariffs are just dropshippers.
Not at all. I feel some sympathy for these smaller companies who place themselves into a larger international chain of manufacturing. Your average... anything, has tons of small pieces that are not made in-house by the company whose brand you see on the packaging. They're made in various factories in various countries. A lot of replacement factories don't exist in the USA and will take years to pop up.
