Canada better watch out!

X is going to go out the same way it came in: amid a sea of lawsuits, idiotic decisions, stubborn ignorance and smattering of bigotry.

Surely they will also sanction the Israeli government who has been actively “protecting” settlers and encouraging them to illegally move to the West Bank…surely…

No, you don’t understand, they were all Hamas. Ben-Gvir told me so and he never lies…

They could use them for retail or…they could re-zone these areas for residential housing and reduce the cost of renting or buying a home, but that would make too much sense.

I’m no fan of imperialistic military expansion but I feel like this might give some perspective:

I ran some basic calculations:

I assumed that the child workers are making minimum wage, the adult workers are making $10 per hour (pay seems to be between $9.27-11.05 per hour), each shift has three people (two of which are child workers), and this is occurring during the summer when school is out.

Using this I figured that if the store was run by 3 adults, each working 12 hour shifts (4 hours of OT), then paying the employees would cost $960 per day per franchise [2(3((8x10)+(4x20))) = 960]. For a store that employs 2 children and one adult per shift and doesn’t pay OT for the children the savings per day is about $292 per location [2(160) + 4(12x7.25) = 668, 960 - 668 = 292]. If they did pay OT to the children then the difference would be $176 [2(160) + ((8x7.25)+4(14.50)) = 784, 960 - 784 = 176]. So if we take these savings and multiply them across the 12 locations and then multiply that daily savings across the entire franchise by the amount of weeks off in the summer ≈ 11 then you get a total franchise savings of either $38,544 [292x12x11] without OT) or $23,232 [176x12x11] (with OT). All it takes is for them to do this for two summers and the fine becomes irrelevant. Not to mention that this doesn’t even count child labor usage during off school times.

Famously the Untied States has never had a single political prisoner.

According to Bureau of Prisons the majority of those incarcerated are there due to drug offenses:

They’re definitely reducing model performance to speed up responses. ChatGPT was at its best when it took forever to write out a response. Lately I’ve noticed that ChatGPT will quickly forget information you just told it, ignore requests, hallucinate randomly, and has a myriad of other problems I didn’t have when the GPT-4 model was released.

It really depends on that games you play and what price range you’re looking at. In general it is around the same performance as a 3060. However, the intel cards have pretty good value at the low end. When it comes to cost per FPS, the A750 is pretty competitive at $200. Compared to a 4060 (which is a horribly priced card at $300), the A750 performs 16% less on average (according to LTT), yet costs 33% less. Also, the A380 is also one of the cheapest ways to get hardware AV1 encoding in your system.

I heard he also hand builds every Tesla. Crazy he has time to do that while meticulously crafting every starlink satellite and raptor engine from scratch!
