The story is about GPU trafficking, likely in violation of ITAR, plus creating artificial scarcity to inflate prices is outstanding. But the story within the story is how a YouTube channel (Gamer’s Nexus) took it upon itself to track down how all this happened. It’s really an outstanding piece of investigative journalism.

Big name journalism is certainly in decline, but these cats picked up the baton.

So, for actual, insightful, investigative journalism, America is down to Teen Vogue and ... Gamers Nexus?

Worst day ever? Or worst day ever SO FAR?

NO YOU FUCKING DON’T.

You didn’t have to three years ago and you don’t today. Use your own brain. It’s there for a reason.

Cue Trump leveling the rest of the White House to avoid compliance.

I was told not to worry about the regime refusing to respect the midterm election results. I guess that is because there won’t be any results to disrespect?

Somebody make these guys a light saber pitot tube cover.

Leaving before AI makes me even stupider than when I arrived.

The best part of this shitshow is the free cantaloupe.

And OMFG it’s all AI slop bullshit.

I read the news and lost 14 IQ points as a result.
