  • Because harassing the Jurors won’t change the outcome of the case since the Jurors have already done everything they are going to do, so harassing them can no longer harm the case, which is probably his primary concern. He obviously would prefer that Trump not attack them, but he’s giving Trump rope and a warning, so we’ll see if Trump ignores the rope, or if he can’t help himself but to open his mouth and stick his head in it.



  • I’ve had some experience with Mint Mobile, but couldn’t get it to activate where I live. The sim worked fine visiting Vegas, but back in my home state, even though it runs on T-Mobile’s network and T-Mobile was fine, the same sim with a phone number with an area code in my home state didn’t work in my home state. So, maybe it works, but the one time I tried it wouldn’t work and Mint couldn’t get it working just kept saying everything is fine and it should be working.

    Tried StraightTalk Wireless after that, 2 different sims so far, no issues, other than I had to get a new sim when the account was inactive for 6 to 8 months. But at least now their sim packs come with both Verizon and notVerizon compatible sims in the same pack now.


  • From your own usa today article:

    according to the poll of 1,261 adults surveyed May 21 through May 23. It found third-party candidates Cornel West and Jill Stein — not Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — are making the difference, pulling support away from Biden.

    Emphasis added by me. And I agree, with the article, other 3rd party candidates are likely to pull more from Biden than Trump, but also in agreement with your article, not RFK Jr. And it goes back to people pushing RFK Jr as a threat to Biden, when in reality he’s not at all a threat to Biden. Its FUD being pushed by bad actors and people are falling for it and is distracting people from the real threats to Biden, which is Cornel West and Jill Stein.


  • I can’t see a world where RFK costs Biden a higher percentage than Trump in any state, that seems like FUD being spread by bad actors. I am not saying anyone here is a bad actor, I am just thinking that people are fearing the worst possible outcome and bad actors are praying on that to push an agenda and because of Wizard’s First Rule (“People are Stupid. People will believe anything because they want to believe it or because they are afraid it might be true.” [Amusingly that quote comes from an Author that if he were still alive would probably vote for Trump]) it spreads, just like most other misinformation.

    You can’t just say he’ll cost Biden 0.1% in Michigan without also considering how much he would affect trump, if he costs Biden 0.1% and Trump 0.9% he still only gets 1% of the vote, but it hurt Trump 90% more than it hurts Biden, which in the end will actually improve Biden’s position. And the newly (within the last 4 years) never-Trumper republicans who would never-Biden as well who votes for RFK Jr can’t be counted as a “biden” vote since they would never vote for him to begin with, if anything its a vast majority of 2020 Trump votes that are shifted to RFK Jr.




  • your share price is wrong, its $31.06 right now down from $34.72 at opening today (about 11.5% down). Hopefully it’ll be down to less than a penny before Trump is allowed to sell them, that would be amazing. It was down to $30 earlier (about 13.6% down), but its rebounding slightly on people buying the dip so they can lose it tomorrow as it continues to drop. Less than a month ago (May 30) it was up to $55/share, so in 2.5 weeks its dropped 43.5%. From its High of $66.22 on April 25, its lost 53.1% of its value. So less than 2 months it lost over half its value, lets hope it loses the other half in the next 2 months.

    Edit: 2 days later and its currently down 58.82% from April 25 to $27.27 a share, so it lost 4 bucks in 2 days already. Lets-a-go, if it keeps this pace it’ll be worthless by next weekend. Though its highly unlikely that will happen that quickly, likely going to see some pumps and dumps and rebounds while steadily keeping the trending direction.

    As someone who was forced to do this for a couple months when I was in the Army, rotating shifts destroys your ability to get good sleep, its horrendous to actually experience. It took about 2 months before people started getting so sleep deprived that people started failing PT (physical training) tests and it took the brigade commander looking at our battalion and asking “wtf is going on over there?” and hearing what our battalion had done to our shift schedule and put a stop to it. He called over every single soldier who failed their PT test to hear our excuses, and when most of us were first time failures and we all had the exact same complaint, by the time he got to me, he was like “You’ve been on rotating shifts, unable to sleep, and were forced to take this test after a shift when you’re completely exhausted like everyone else?” “yes sir” “ok, don’t expect that shift rotation to last, I’ll be talking to your battalion commander after this. Send in the next person.” Dude was ready to just start ripping into us but changed his tune right quick after hearing about the fucked up shift schedule and lack of any common sense in the leadership’s ability to plan properly. One of the few times where shit actually rolled uphill. Suffice it to say, before I even finished the drive back to my barracks, I was being called by my platoon sergeant that we’d have to a new schedule tomorrow and to just show up for swing shift like we normally would be on.

    In the prison I worked at we would usually rotate shifts every 6 months, but our commander heard complaints about people being on day shift for so long at one time that they were getting burnt out dealing with 90% of the problem times with inmates, and instead of changing it to every 3 months, changed the rotation to every 2 days. Literally, 2 days on Day shift, 2 days on Swing shift, 2 days on Night shift, 1 day off, then back to days. And that last day was getting off shift at 6AM, doing PT until 8AM, Barracks Maintenance until 10 AM, then because of the rotation, we’d have to be back in at work at 5:30 AM the next day, so our 1 day off a week was only 19.5 hours, and you’re exhausted but you can’t sleep yet, otherwise you’ll be up all night before work the next day, so you force yourself to run on fumes, getting a haircut, getting food and supplies for the next week, etc. Then sleeping, so there was literally never any time to relax. It fucking sucked.


  • It looks like the generation digit corresponds to year for Desktop CPUs too. I think the only major difference from the image I showed prior is the last digit, the desktop CPUs have different letter(s) but the other 4 digits correspond the same. For example, the 7950X is 2023, Ryzen 9, Zen 5, Lower model, and X is high power draw and clock speeds, then there is the 7955WX which is 2023, Ryzen 9, Zen 5, Upper Model (Threadripper), Workstation. The 8950X upcomming cpu is 2024, Ryzen 9, Zen5, Lower Model, High Power and clock speeds, etc. So the 8 series is still Zen 5, so its still a refresh of other zen5 chips, however it also apparently has about a 20% uplift compared to the 7 series, but its still a refresh. So the 9000 series we won’t know if its a refresh or not until we have the skus with the 3rd digit, if its a 6, then its a not a zen5 refresh, if its a 5, it is a zen5 refresh.


  • That’s because, according to the super secret AMD Decoder Wheel, the 7 series just means it came out in 2023, while the 8 series means it comes out in 2024, and the 9 series is any model released first released in 2025. Which means you can’t use the first digit to tell what architecture the CPU is at all, you need the 2nd digit and 3rd digit. Which means this “leak” about 9000 series is not a leak because AMD has already stated, for over a year now, that the 9 series would be CPUs released in 2025.
