    Also, this is pretty hard to beat for $229. Yes, that's not a typo.

    This RAM is really good for the price. Timings work on AMD and Intel, has EXPO and XMP timings coded onto the sticks. Embed is wrong, it's on sale for $84.

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    Yeah I'm definitely making warrior alt after I level my rogue, assuming I even play this. Game looks fun but I'm afraid it's going to be overrun with the full spectrum of toxic trash.

    PPE loans to anyone well-connected with their financial institutions. Childcare Tax Credits. Extended Unemployment. Not Going Out Much. All that happened in 2020 and 2021, and did get injected into the regular 'Mainstreet' economy. A ton of small businesses around here took the PPE money...

    They're already trying to scare people into thinking that consumer prices becoming competitive again between retailers is the same thing as actual deflation. We are already past the actual deflation. M2 supply has contracted, and the velocity of new debt issuance is happening slower due to...

    What does this even mean? You do pre-sales consulting for some shit that runs in AWS? Because that's what it sounds like it means.

    My position is up +50.81%. I keep fence-sitting on selling, but I honestly don't see how anyone competes with being able to integrate Copilot directly into M365. They won't always be able to charge $30 per-user-per-month like they are right now, but they'll probably be able to extract at least...

    Seems easy if you spend all your time at work playing the advancement game instead of producing deliverable technical output. Geeks always get distracted into playing the wrong game, which is why they always end up managed by people dumber than them.

    My prediction is that the Fed doesn't even start to consider cutting rates until the summer. It will almost certainly be politically-timed.

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    It seems like a relatively low time-investment server, given how everything is rolling out in phases. You'll be able to hit max level in 1-2 days of grinding each time. I'll probably play this until I get to the point where I can solo BRD (which I could with field marshal gear in vanilla...

    NFTs would only really be useful for stuff like CS:GO skins. So you could trade them on a marketplace that wasn't necessarily controlled by the game developer. MTGO cards also make sense. The best use case would be some kind decentralized survival game like Valheim or ARK, where you could...

    Roommates shitting on your bed happens in college. I think there's even been a few threads about it here. College experiences don't generalize (which is also why the social sciences are shit, since they mostly study college students going through the weirdest part of their lives.)

    That's just Intel's specs. The motherboard manufacturer will say what it supports. In the case of the board you picked: Supports DDR5 Memory, Dual Channel DDR5 7200+MHz (OC) Now, those timings would be hard. But 6000mhz @ CL32 is pretty easy, just select the XMP settings in BIOS and go.

    First season was a lot funnier than the second season. Aside from OB, there weren't a lot of laughs to be had in the second season. Also, nothing really happens in the first 2 episodes of S2. The last 4 were solid though, one of the rare times I binged 4 episodes of anything back to back...
