Did you happen to see or know the total active military personnel to know what % of the US military that 188k will be?

Edit: nvm I googled it lol its 2.86 million so that’d be 6% of total military personnel

Pshhh who needs 83% of black males in the military anyway /s had to look up what % of black males this affects and 83% was way higher than I expected

Is the UK small enough that large busts like this are actually felt by the end user? I always used to see articles of huge drug busts in America when I survived off cocain, cigarettes and unlimited ambition but never saw any actual bottlenecks or shortages resulting from them. US has 300-400 million people who could be a drug dealer. When you compare that to the UK’s potential drug dealer pool of less than 75 million people, do the UK end user drug users feel the affects of big busts?

Edit: I also would like to know from any Janet Reno party enthusiasts from the UK, is cocaine the pinnacle of sought after drugs? It seems like it would be the hardest to procure logistically. Unless, do they grow and produce coke in Africa? Serious question, I’ve only ever heard of sources from Central/South America. Opium based drugs you guys get comes from middle east and Asia, right? You guys would have similar obstacles as any 1st world country for manufactured drugs like e, molly, meth, fentanyl, right? Ill get accross the pond to visit someday, its always been on my bucket list but I used to say id never take a vacation there because id never come back so its always been a big desire that was too big to take on. So I apologize for the ignorance.

Says the same IT group of humanity with their heads buried in code mumbling i hate people into their monitors 🤣/s its just a joke. Im describing myself🤣

What in the flying shit have they been optimizing their graphics processing units for this whole time? We’re they like nvidia and thought the core temp readings were the core clock readings and kept pushing them to the limit of a pc’s melting point? Lol /s

Did you even read the article you linked? The fuckin “source” you got your panties in a bunch over arent even cited beyond, “according to people familiar with the deliberations.” They dont even say its their own source in their own article you dolt.

Every game that ever gets released when you check gaming forums within the first month of a game’s release lol /s

Im joking. I get the sentiment that a finished product should be fully complete and inspected by a QA team before release. But still, the fuckin extreme hatred ill see for the game and its studio, regardless of the company’s history, is soooooo fuckin wild. And almost everytime when I get to the point of buying the game, ill check the steam reviews and it’ll be mostly positive after like one patch release.

Not sure why they didnt fix their comment but here is the comment that was meant as a reply to your comment but was mistakenly left as a reply to my top level comment. Its originally from @bathing_in_bismuth

YOUR COMMENT BEING REPLIED TO:

I have paid roughly the same price for 3.5grams of cannabis since 1992. The quality has vastly improved but the price remains the same. That does not suggest that inflation is bullshit.

If you want to learn micro or need a refresher here’s a link to MIT’s intro micro which is excellent:

@bathing_in_bismuth 's reply:

Does the quality differ? I think it makes a great discussion and maybe a good analogue of current economic state of affairs

Edit. Nvm read quovadishomines post

Wanna know how i know inflation, cost of living increases, supply chain bottle necks and price increases are all a bunch of fuckin bullshit? Im still paying the same price for an 8th or Oz of weed as I was paying 15-20 years ago in highschool. The last samurai of the lost world of privately owned businesses before corpo whores ruined the world is you friendly neighborhood drug dealers. Lol

Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification.

They would have over a hundred thousand players on a closed beta game? Goddamn that seems like a shit ton for a beta but I’ve also never looked at any game’s player count.

Because any grown ass adult who makes a life long decision to go into a career field surrounded by other people’s shitbag children is not right in the head no matter how you look at it.

Yeah what do I know…

Don’t forget to claim your state’s minimum for tips serving gin and tonics🍻

Well it either shows how meaningless your job is or that a 10 year old could do your job if the avg viewer thinks everything he showed looked as good as any other graphics out there. Good luck with your whole pretentious artist shtick, hope it serves you well while youre serving bud lights and mixed drinks at whatever bar you be working at after AI replaces you!

Way late to the party cuz im browsing top posts for the week, but you reminded me of how I refused to believe my father when he said cable TV used to be ad free. He said it was the whole point of paying for it back then cuz paying for TV didn’t exist yet.

Right but thats kinda what im saying is that wouldn’t all hardware be expensive and not just Pis?

Sorry for my ignorance, so brasil has nothing like an Amazon where OP could buy a new pi from and have it delivered? If thats the case i feel like I could buy OP a pi and ship it to them in brasil for less cost than it would be to buy anyother option of hardware for a home server. Assuming USPS still offers flat rate boxes for international shipments.

Why would raspberry pi’s be expensive but the hardware to build a server be any cheaper?
