Intel sold practically nothing, see reports of literally zero Intel sales in a month at Germany’s largest retailer for example.

That means AMD got the lions share which was also lower than expected.

This points more to market slowness than individual company performance. A 4% cut is quite modest with that sort of market.

Ending the meat industry would result in the extinction of breeds we have engineered for meat and milk production.

Ending factory farming would significantly reduce numbers and increase quality of life for the animals.

So there’s this neat thing in quantum mechanics where the state of something could change to a more stable state in what is known as false vacuum decay.

Then it causes everything else of the same type to decay/collapse to the more stable state in a wave travelling in every direction at nearly the speed of light.

Such an event could rewrite fundamental forces of the universe and… one day planes just stop working.

Probably other bad stuff happens as well like our cells stop working and we all die.

I can’t finish any bioware games because I always get so angry at the options and dialogue yet I see them being praised all the time.

After how Asus handled their X670E motherboards I wouldn’t ever touch them again.

Absolutely. I don’t have any hate for them it’s just not my thing and it’s a bit unpleasant when I see it. It’s a great feature for the fediverse that we can filter and let others enjoy their thing in peace.

I didn’t say sex was a spectrum

It helps if you read and comprehend the comment chain to understand what is being discussed before you jump in with ‘I didn’t say that’ when I never claimed you did.

I don’t see why it’s so hard for you to actually read the comment chain. It is right there. You can re-read it at any time.

Counterpoint: filtering out the furry communities by blocking a single instance

I think I was fairly clear, it is a binary system that has some rare exceptions.

Saying sex is a binary is saying there are only males and only females.

In healthy examples of mammals where development has occurred normally this is true.

This whole ‘its a spectrum’ argument is like saying humans aren’t bipedal, there’s a spectrum because some people are born without legs! It doesn’t make any sense.

That doesn’t mean that society should refuse to accept, include and support people born without the ability to walk.

I received a refund in 2018 though they have since tried changing their EULA and TOS to make it harder, they have no legal standing to refuse a refund to Australian customers.

I was refunded for around $750 USD IIRC and at one point was in email contact with Will Leverett prior to my refund being approved.

their existence proves that sex isn’t just a binary.

This argument has always struck me as odd as in virtually every other discussion we would accept that the exception ‘proves the rule’.

Humans have two hands, except when they don’t due to something impacting fetal development.

Humans have two kidneys, except when they don’t due to an error in fetal development or as a result of disease or injury.

There’s diversity to sex that requires a more complicated scheme to account for everybody.

Or just let the exceptions be exceptions with no social stigma rather than refusing to recognise that the vast majority of humans, and mammals, can be accurately identified as one of two distinct sexes.

Honestly Korean brands are just not options anymore, between the ads from LG and Samsung, and the spying by Hyundai and Kia there’s simply no reason to buy their products.

I don’t care. There is zero benefit to me. Advertising scum can go kick rocks.

Where’s it go after aggregation? To advertisers.

I don’t care if it is better than the creepy shit advertisers do today because it doesn’t stop advertisers from continuing to do creepy shit.

All it does it give advertisers MORE data. It isn’t a replacement it is an addition.

Its not doing that

It literally is, with an opt-out feature.

Light blue ball

Male

Medium height dressed in a long sleeved pale blue collared work shirt, wearing jeans, with a brown belt. Brown hair. Non-descript facial features.

Tennis ball sized

A white, rectangular wooden table.

I already knew, the picture formed instantly on reading the prompt. Initially my perspective was looking directly at the ball then when I read the part about pushing it off the table my perspective shifted further back.

That’s just punitive damages awarded by the court and also isn’t unusual.

There is a whole universe of resources and our needs for them will never be fully satisfied. Every step towards cleaner, more sustainable energy is a good one.

In what way is Nintendo guilty?

That’s hardly unique when damages exceed what a person can pay, wage garnishing is actually relatively common.

Nintendo also gave Gary Bowser a warning and he signed an agreement saying he would stop his illegal activities… and then he continued anyway.

They gave him an out at no cost and instead he landed himself in prison because he fucked around and found out.
