Maybe, although I’ve been hearing that for the last 15 years and it just keeps chugging along

Yes, a bit. Looks like SSDs are up like 10-50% checking a few price trends on Amazon. That might be partially just end of the year supply chain stuff though.

-RAM prices skyrocket another 5000%
-Gamers cannibalize their PCs to make small fortunes.
-The videogame industry collapses.
-2026 becomes known as the Year of the Boardgame as suddenly affluent gamers flock to tangible, tabletop games and retro consoles.

That’s completely different though. So they partner with all the big pharma companies, which makes sense given their research. Unless you think he’s secretly on the take from AZ (idk how you would even attempt to bribe Bill Gates), he does not benefit at all financially from the Oxford/AZ deal and there’s no sign of wrongdoing.

No they don’t dude. AZ doesn’t have a parent company. Immunocore has about 1 billion dollars in assets, AZ has about 100 billion. Stop making stuff up.

Where do you see that? That isn’t anywhere in your link. The only reference to AZ is that they partnered with one of the companies that Gates invested in.

Listen m8 all I do is try to do is stop the spread of misinformation. If X thing is just as bad as Y… just say he did X thing. No need to embellish the story.

No, I don’t think that’s accurate. Oxford Unkversity was going to waive their rights to the vaccine, and Gates pressured them to instead partner with Astra-Zeneca. But to my knowledge Gates never profited from that deal. Now, was there still some shady backroom dealing going on? Very possibly.

I feel like the 0.01% is either a mistake or an exaggeration? Isn’t Linux something like 1-2% of the gamer base depending on how you measure it? Why would a Linux supported hard-core game be 100x less than that?

Lemmy recreating the free market haha

I’ll be honest I haven’t delved too deep into his music but his cover of Bulls on Parade goes hard

Denzel Curry maybe?

So your claim that they are still funded and influenced by the British government is completely unsubstantiated got it.

They are my primary news source. I think they are extremely trustworthy and overall pretty unbiased. I sense a sort of contempt towards Donald Trump that bleeds through even in their very dry reporting style. I appreciate how non-sensationalized their stories are.

Do you have any evidence they continue to be funded and directed by the British government? They were literally partnered with TASS until 2022…

Yeah I saw that post and combing through it there is nobody corroborating the screenshot. They wouldn’t just give that promotion to one singular user without any kind of announcement, and searching for “double karma non-political content” only returns that post as a result. 95% chance this is fake.

Don’t think so

There’s no way there’s an entire spoon of plastic in my brain. I know that one study came to that conclusion but that study was wrong. Cmon people that’s insane.

If I’m in an elevator alone with a woman or something I will usually just give a friendly nod and adopt a very relaxed posture, like leaning against the wall. The youtuber Contrapoints talked about this exact scenario in one of her videos (a black man whistling in the elevator so she wouldn’t feel scared) and it made me more aware of it.

Are you talking about Furiosa the spinoff movie or Furiosa in Mad Max? I have never heard a single complaint about Furiosa in Mad Max
