Say you make $10 an hour, and over the past 4 years, you got a couple dollar an hour raise overall so you make $12 now. In the same time, you've seen Bread go from $2 a loaf to $4 a loaf.

End result? The economy sucks because I feel like it does.

Or it sucks because they make 20% more but food is 100% more expensive. This "vibecession" narrative is absolute bullshit, just like the "no one wants to work anymore" narrative being spun a while back.

Mint vs Matara!

Yeah, but it's not as if it's some secret what they include and how they weight each item.
I guess I'm mostly pushing back on the allusion that it's some conspiracy or something

It's not a conspiracy, it's simply making the numbers look better than they really are.

Next year's WrestleTuber will probably be seeing a lot more diapers.

He's very nice and that's the problem. Sure it grants him more access by companies, but that's the reason why you can't take his reviews seriously because he's generally not going to drill deeply into issues of a product since it would upset the company.

You're telling me an AI fried this rice?

People itt literally acting like Hillary wasn't almost president.

'She was a putrid candidate'

One that was less than 100k votes from becoming president. She wasn't nearly as bad as trolls claim. It sometimes just comes down to people hating women, and women tend to hate women as much as men sometimes.

She lost against a clown.

Is she planning on running for president again? Might as well, biden and trump have shown that you're never too old to desperately cling onto power.

Amazing first day of WrestleTuber!

Yes, a bad blueberry doesn't taste like much, but a good blueberry is damn amazing. The quality of fruit is highly variable. How many times do we have to teach you this lesson?!

All the chefs making glue pizza will be out on their ass thanks to AI.

They were way overpriced to begin with since they're just the online version of Whole Foods. Anyway, I'll believe grocery prices in general are going down when my grocery bill goes down. I stick to essentials/basic ingredients, so if they slash prices on random snacks and niche shit then I won't feel it.

That means you currently have 14 shares. Congrats on planning to hold through the split I guess.

If you want to define inflation as something different, I guess you're fine to do that.

It would have been an unlivable wage before as well.

The fed themselves change the definition of inflation by shuffling around items in the "basket of goods" they use to calculate inflation and all the selectivity and exclusions they apply to massage the numbers.

emblem-man posted...

This is false.

The incomes of people, especially the lowest earners have increased more than inflation.

https://x.com/EconChrisClarke/status/1793800612079108450?t=b4uWYVKnIqhIWeK5luJhfg&s=19

That's if you believe we've only had about 20% cumulative inflation since covid (and let's just disregard shrinkflation and shitflation). The lowest earners are going to have the highest growth because going from $10/hr to $12/hr is an easy 20% increase, but it's still an unlivable wage in this high inflation environment.

Vehicles are lasting longer!

I find it amusing that Kurosanji EN has fallen out of people's attention so hard, that nobody here cares that they just announced a new wave

(Heck, even I just found out about it many hours after the announcement lmao)

Then again, with all the drama they have for nearly half a year, it's understandable that people just don't want to talk about them anymore.

I was never big on reveals since a lot of the hype cycle is on twitter which I'm not on. From what I've seen, the twitter banter is usually silly and any videos are just simple model movements or lore drops, neither of which give any idea of what the person is actually like (especially since people often drop any pretense of lore shortly after debut, if not in the debut itself).

Nijisanji (at least the EN branch) being so poorly managed definitely puts a damper on things, but the talents themselves can still be entertaining. I'll still tune into streams by Rosemi, Doppio, Scarle, and Kunai among others from time to time. I feel sorry for the talents who are getting shit on just by association with the company.

There are so many people, organizations and governments that will not replace X86 chips for at least another 50 years. Realistically they won't be replaced until Intel/AMD replace them. Also AMD has an Arm CPU design in the works right now.

Are they using them because that's the hardware available (e.g. desktops/laptops) or are they using them because they have a hard requirement for x86? ARM is just getting started in the desktop/laptop space with Apple's M-series chips being a major blow to x86 dominance. Also, x86 emulation on ARM is actually great right now, with it being more than suitable for normal office software, if need be.

Do you have more information on the ARM CPU design from AMD? How those CPUs are planned to be used makes all the difference.

AMD is powering Microsoft's latest AI cloud service: https://www.amd.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2024-5-21-amd-instinct-mi300x-accelerators-power-microsoft-a.html

X86 processors that only AMD and intel can make, that the western world's governments rely on. GPU market where it's so hard to actually break in, intel has 30 years of graphics experience but their current GPU drivers and architecture id problematic during the time they chose to make discreet desktop graphics cards and their product is a joke, don't expect another company to actually enter that market.

AMD and Nvidia will remain major players in the server market even as intel continues to lose there. Intel's Lunar Lake looks to be quite competitive with the Snapdragon X Elite so ARM for Windows isn't going to stroll to victory easily, although they do have a lot of designs.

AMD will continue to own the premium console market and their upcoming Strix Halo APU(8/12/16 Zen 5 cores with a RDNA 3.5 GPU with higher specs than the PS5's GPU) will be great for high end gaming laptops and can power a 1440P mid range gaming PC alone with no discreet GPU.

Only AMD and Intel can make x86 processors, but ARM dominates phones and is making its way into datacenter (where power consumption is getting more important) and even desktops/laptops.

Gaming hardware is looking at a decline, even NVIDIA reported a decline in gaming revenues. The margin on console hardware isn't great and high-end PC gaming is becoming more niche as prices have been squeezed way too high on AI overhype and people have settled for less powerful hardware in response.

Having to wade through shitty websites that use it to write garbage articles filled with fluff when I just want to look something simple up.

The markets Nvidia(And AMD/Intel) are in is insulated and they 3 pretty much will be the only ones in it forever. Last ten years Nvidia stock is worth 10 times what it was and AMD is worth 100 times what it was, Lol.

Insulated in the short term, but there are a lot of companies making their own AI accelerators now.

How long before grifters start selling dog food, claiming it will reduce microplastics in your balls and boost sperm counts?

The numbers look good but they're looking at the wrong numbers.

I like this song, but man, I feel like it's weighed down so much by muddy sounding instrumentals and overly distorted vocals. I'm not sure if I'm expressing this correctly, but it's just way too busy. I wish there was a cleaner sounding version, it would be so much better and would take it from a liked song to a beloved song for me. Is it just my audio mixer settings?

Yeah, if the chicken was off before you even cooked it, then even cooking it more might not have made a difference for food poisoning.

Nah, there's a lot worse. Also, you're just getting started, keep at it!

Don't play those games at all. You recognize that they prey on fomo, so don't reward them.

If biden is serious about taxing the rich, then why did he select this jackass to be secretary of the treasury?

The cuts are for this announcement to get the PR but their prices will still be ridiculously high. I recently saw an announcement of a $5 meal deal from mcdonalds but you still get less than $5 meal deals from other places that existed before mcdonald's dumb announcement.

Regular people don't know shit about what is going on. And they think Israel is this great place. Then you have the people who now how bad that they are. But think G-d told them to support Israel's genocide. People on the internet and young people are like the only people who care.

and quite a few voters in the key state of Michigan.

Exactly. I don't mind giving up my fries and if he doesn't finish them then I consider a bonus for myself.

cjsdowg posted...

He has nothing to lose with funding this genocide.

Except votes.

cjsdowg posted...

Since Trump is so bad. He know even questioning him is out of the question for many.

Maybe for people who argue politics on the internet, but regular people aren't "doing the calculation" on who is the less shitty of the two.

Also, if you want little versions of character (e.g. little version of , type l and then the character to get it: ). If you need the symbol, then you can type "onaji" and find it somewhere in the list of suggestions.

What Japanese keyboard? When using IME, it's wo.

WTF did Netanyahu do to make Biden his bitch?

biden is perhaps the most pro-israel politician and has been his entire career. It's not netanyahu specifically, it's whatever israel wants to do and what israel wants to do is up to whatever parties are currently in power there.

biden topping the bribery recipient lists might play a role: https://www.opensecrets.org/industries/summary?cycle=All&ind=Q05&recipdetail=S

Doesn't count as a karen when it's legitimate bullshit. Prices all around are absolute bullshit. Who the fuck is going to pay that much for ice cream?

Given how trash this stock is, it should be lower.

But of course, the stock market doesn't actually reflect reality. Certainly not in the short term.

Japanese Kanji has a lot of readings, even this word [] (Tanabata) has a unique spelling.
Then, is the kanji for [] with a lot of readings.

This is what blew my mind when I started learning kanji (casually). I thought the complicated symbols would be balanced out by having one reading per character, but then I got hit with compound kanji and multiple readings.

Completely arbitrary, given how it looks like all or most major powers fund proxy fighters/terrorists.

refmon posted...

Remember, if you vote for Trump this will only get worse

Remember, biden is president right now and is supporting this. He would rather risk losing voters than to stop supporting genocide. I'm getting real sick and tired of biden hiding behind trump being worse in order to continue supporting **GENOCIDE** which used to be a red line that absolutely must never be crossed, but masks got ripped right the fuck off, I guess.

He's desperate to cash out before the stock tanks hard.

If you want good seafood, go to an Asian restaurant.

Man, they really pump these out, huh?

Supposedly cumulative inflation since 2020 has been only 20%. I really want to know how they arrived at such a low number.
