Yeah more or less. The Verge did a whole podcast episode on RAM over the holidays. It was a good explainer.

Basically, RAM that goes into AI data centers isn’t necessarily the same as RAM in your computer. There are only 3 companies making RAM. They are altering their fabrication lines to accommodate for the commercial/AI ram so they can make more money. That means they can’t produce consumer RAM.

It’s hard and expensive to build RAM and chip factories because there is one company that makes the machine that does it. So anyone who wants to stay a RAM factory is at their mercy.

The Verge reporter said he expects ram prices might go up significantly more in the next 6months to a year.

Don’t start at a Marriott. Every time I read an article about ICE, they are staying at a Marriott.

Or just go to your local Marriott and play trumpets at 3 am to be safe. You never know.

The fact that she offered to share a Peace Prize with that fucking crybaby should earn her a second Peace Prize.

Did we just become best friends?

Also, it’s in GamePass if you have that.

There’s a game that’s like if Factorio was set in Stardew Valley. I just started playing it on a whim last night.

It’s called Little Rocket Lab. I’m not to far into it so don’t take this as a recommendation necessarily, but there is a dog. You can pet it. You can play fetch with him.

You’re right. Personally, I’d rather support FOSS development. His justification isn’t 100% right but some of the idea resonates with me.

I’m not worried about password resets. They have my email but not my password. I use a password manager, and keep my email account locked up tight. As long as they can’t get in my email, they can’t change my password.

I want Palestinian people to be safe and unharmed. I want Israelis to be safe and unharmed.

Guess that makes me an antisemite. /s

I know y’all disagree with me but I think the schadenfraude that the left is what caused the MAGA branch of the right to begin with and we’re only making it worse.

I suspect we could sway a lot of voters by having real conversations about it rather than making fun of them.

I just looked up his Facebook out of curiosity. It hasn’t been removed.

He called himself “dome daddy”.

He was selling them to collectors.

It’s weird for sure, but a $1mil bail is insane for what boils down to theft.

I don’t mean to sound callous to the families of the deceased, but it is what it is.

Maybe I’m a bit fucked up though because I was trying to think how I would feel if he had stolen my dad’s remains, and I’ve decided it would have been comical. I suspect my dad would have thought that too. I don’t visit his grave site either so maybe I can’t comprehend it. I just don’t believe he is in a box in bones, ya know?

Iha and Wretzky didn’t get along with Corgan.

Apparently, Corgan wouldn’t let them play their own parts when recording the album. He did all guitar and bass parts himself.

Personally, I prefer not to be Nintendo because of Nintendo’s behavior, but the price is why they still struggle to sell these.

They sold a ton right out of the gate. Everyone that really wanted one already got one. After that, they need parents and grandparents to get them for the kids and that isn’t going to happen as much.

Nintendo was basically a “toy”. You could, for the most part, safely buy a Nintendo console for your kids at a somewhat reasonable price. (I know the OG consoles were a bit pricey).

You could buy your kid a handheld console for ~$200 or less. The Switch 1 was $300, but you could still get your kid a Lite for $200.

Now, the only option is a $450 Switch 2.

Which 3 SP albums do I like? Gish, Siamese Dreams, and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.

Siamese Dream is my favorite of the 3 and “Geek USA” is probably my favorite song of all time.

The 4th album Adore has a couple good songs but that’s when their style started to change and they started breaking up. Chamberlain left prior to this album for personal reasons then Wretzky and Iha left bc Corgan is a dick.

Chamberlain and Iha have come back recently, I think but Wretzky HATES Corgan and will never work with him again.

So why do I like those albums so much? Mainly Jimmy Chamberlain. He doesn’t get enough credit for his talent. He’s the reason I fell in love with those albums to begin with.

The CEO of Brave, Brandon Eich, has anti-gay rights views and donated to getting Prop 8 passed in California (ban on same-sex marriage that was overturned later).

Brave also runs their own ad network. On the browser, they block 3rd party ads and insert their own ads.

I’m a big fan of Kagi. I don’t know about blog post you mentioned. I know the Proton CEO said some pro Trump things that I don’t love.

I’ll be pretty bummed if I find out Kagi is the same.

Police do not have the right to pass judgement.

I know I’m preaching to the choir here but I wish they’d stop saying this shit. They shouldn’t be commenting on any investigation in public so a fair trial can happen.

ACAB

I agree with this completely. But for me, those 3 albums are better than almost everything else.

Mayonnaise is fantastic, but for me, the song right before Mayo is better. Geek USA is my favorite song of all time.

But, honestly, that whole album pretty damn good. You really can’t go wrong.
