And only on poor people whose necessary consumption is a larger percentage of their overall income.

You won't, directly anyway. Tarriffs are paid by the importer on the US side.

The biggest thing they did to kill it was banner ads in the client. The second those showed up, all my friends and myself instantly jumped to the new, fledgling Discord.

None of them.

There are private companies that run a lot of their own independent forecasting models e.g AccuWeather, but all of them almost exclusively rely on NOAA's scientific models, experimental tests, weather balloons, satellites, sensor stations, etc for input data to forecast anything useful.

Weimar Republic had a whole bunch of multimillionaire too. Via hyperinflation that made the Deutchmark worthless.

Fuck off with that misinformation piece.

I also miss the days when you could buy cocaine from your friendly neighborhood grocery store.

Calling it now, EA is going to do it anyway if they haven't already, and tell them all to go pound sand.

To the surprise of no-one, when Nazi's find resistance from democracy, they will abandon democracy, not Nazism.

DOA launch price. At $550 these would have sold like hotcakes and doubled their marketshare. Instead they just keep matching Nvidia MSRP which means people will just keep buying Nvidia as AMD's software stack and feature support is always 1 full generation behind. The "midrange" market is well and truely dead.

Wait for Intel Battlemage b770.

That's not the point.

Currently it is a civil failure to be in the US without papers. This makes it a criminal act to not voluntarily register on this list. Since almost no-one is going to voluntarily register (as it will be akin to loading yourself on a deportation flight immediately), it gives them way more leeway for detention and abuse by labelling them actual criminals.

generally the best

I'd argue that's debatable these days... JD still has some of the better tractors but they're still in a pretty terrible state when it comes to any kind of harvesting or other implement, self propelled or otherwise. New Holland swathers, balers, combines, etc will run circles around any equivalent JD equipment.
