I love how each year everything is more expensive, and my salary has not even increased the inflation in the last two years.

I have a Remarkable Paper Pro that I love for graphic novels, aside of its hand-writting capabilities. It’s also good for reading books, but the size is a bit too big to carry it without a bag or when out and about. Ideally, I’d like something like the Boox Palma 2, but not sure if I can justify the price + Pen having already another eNotebook.

Nvidia’s most advanced chips, H100s, have been banned from export to China since September 2022 by US sanctions. Nvidia then developed the less powerful H800 chips for the Chinese market, although they were also banned from export to China last October.

I love how in the US they talk about meritocracy, competition being good, blablabla… but they rig the game from the beginning. And even so, people find a way to be better. Fascinating.

I think what he proposes would make certain things better, but it would still be just a patch to a broken system.

Don’t think he should be ignored, but I also don’t think he is this saviour he thinks he is.

Milei is a fucking twat.

Not sure recommending a flatpak installation is the best thing to someone kinda new.

The left fails for many things but mainly because the media works with the elites and blame, create fake news, and dictate what the public think, want and feel.

Using the system around him and ultimately exploiting people, even if he advocates for good will, it is a choice, and something he can change. That’s what I’m blaming him for.

To me, what he wants is maintaining capitalism but just a little less biased in how wealth is shared. To me that is not real left. It does not address the many problems of capitalism.

Thanks, that makes sense.

Yes, but that doesn’t make it less imperialistic.

Now he says he’s the only person on the left who really understands the British economy – and the people who wield the power

Humble, huh?

Stevenson still makes a lot of money trading, which he does “to demonstrate to myself that I’m not insane. A lot of people can say pessimistic things, but not a lot of them can make hundreds of thousands of pounds every year on financial markets. I don’t just say these things; I bet on them. And I make money every year. You can’t do that if you’re not right. If you made every economist who chats shit on the media bet their own personal money on what they’re saying, there’d be a lot less bullshit on the news.”

If he makes money off properties, gold and stocks without realising that that affects the housing crisis, the environment with gold mining, or there’s no ethical approach to what kind of companies he gets stocks from… He is still part of the problem. I don’t care how much he says he’s on the left.

I suppose you mean for most US citizens :P

I’m not sure whether I understand this. By DT signing the withdrawal, US companies now will be able to have a lower tax rate than 15% in Ireland? Or that by signing it, the companies will push for a lower rate and threat with leaving if the country doesn’t comply?

There are awesome self-hosted, awesome non-free self-hosted and awesome sysadmin too

Yes. Not only from Twitter, though. Spotify gave money to Trump’s inauguration. So did Google, and Amazon.
