  • The economic failures of the Biden administration consisted of what, failing to have a populous who votes for a good legislative branch? The only thing he could have done differently is be a dictator and/or force the fcc to shut down and stiffle far right propoganda. Which would still be overreach, being a entity meant to be non partisan.

    The economy bounced back from COVID. Wealth distribution was what was horrendous. A Republican majority Congress passed nothing to help with wealth distribution issues. For 1, because it helped get them back in office, and for 2 because they are mostly despicable people.


  • Strange competition as well. Let’s see a person outrun a car for 13 miles. There already Jaguars driving hundreds of thousands of miles more carefully than humans are. Why are we forcing them to be bipedal? Person in race vs a smart missile. Missile makes it to another continent before the person makes anywhere near that. Drones are flying around without need of human guidance. Computers are faster at just about everything and always will be. There’s a reason we make phone calls or emails instead of sending a letter.






  • There really isn’t a good option there. Someone with a gun goes to protect these people in the car. Ice calls in back up/police or just guns down the shooter, label a terrorist, double down on their claims these people were in fact threats and get the insurrection act passed on Sunday do to media outlets using fear mongering against people who want the constitution upheld.

    A single person or a group of 5 even with guns can’t do anything to help singular people against an army. Also the right has pushed for years, “they don’t care about you so why should you care about them”. Many conservatives have been divided intentionally. Taught to not help anyone but themselves, or maybe their family, but they will choose themselves over family most times.

    Those 1-5 people would have more of an effect not fighting the random ice officer on the street but doing other things, most of which require coordination and cooperation without any means of large scale communication.






  • To do so for the first time in the US. Goes on to explain how the factories are already up and running producing units.

    I also know there are other partners not listed in the article producing Nvidia based servers used for AI for Google, Meta, and others.

    Source: I diagnose errors/issues for the assembled server racks and confirm they can pass stress tests and such. They are built on an assembly line in the same factory.


  • Last I saw it was reported around 17 hours per phone on labor. They won’t get away with less than $20/hr plus benefits here. So that’s around $22.50/hr. ~$380 of labor per phone just on construction. Every individual part/material will have to pay a tariff coming into the country as well unless you are going to make those here as well at the higher costs. 100% of their profit margins would be eaten up. So there are 2 options, raise the price by 50% to keep their profits, or exploit cheap labor elsewhere. They made their choice to move to India previously and India faces a 27% tariff. They keep their profits higher and prices lower by not moving manufacturing of the phone here.








  • Oh I’m sure they aren’t great people. They make most of their money off swindling insurance companies for huge settlement offers due to work/car injuries. That said, if you’re trying to get a huge settlement from Walmart, they are probably a good bet though. Also I know they turned down a case years ago when my dad went to them about his mother. She had surgery where there was no cartilage left in her ankle. They decided to screw her ankle to her foot essentially making it unable to move but reduce the pain. When she was in recovery they kept forcing her to get up and walk on it and she kept saying it hurt to much. Weeks into the rehab they said she wasn’t trying to put in the work. Then after a lot of arguing we finally got them to do new X-rays. Of course they found hairline fractures around the screws they placed. The insurance company/Medicaid and what not all said they wouldn’t cover any rehab time after the fractures were found because that time was used up during the period they were trying to force her to walk on a botched surgery. Morgan and Morgan turned down the case, and she reverse mortgaged her house to cover the rehab time. America at its finest
