it’s the new gaming king! Still riding high on my 5800X3D personally, that was a GOAT purchase. I know the AM5 counterparts are beating it out on all the charts, but videos like this highlight how it is still better than the majority of CPUs when it comes to gaming performance.

like what was the tech that caused such a leap? They talk about how they switched up the x3D cache configuration - it used to be stacked above the main part of the chip with some sort of insulation in between, but they found a way to remove the insulation and put the 3D cache on the underside of the chip. I’m no expert and i watched the video yesterday, so sorry if that explanation isn’t clear. Effectively, they found a way to bring the 3D cache “closer” to the cores, which shortens the time it takes for the cores to communicate with the cache.

qualified due to autism? You have not explicitly said your reasons for seeking MAID, and whatever they are, I’m sure that you know what you are doing. I just want you to know that I believe autistic people are one of greatest natural gifts that the world has given us. Y’all have a gift to see the world in a refreshingly-different way from everyone else, and there are many autistic folks in my life that I love dearly. Many of them have survived some very dark phases in their lives, where everything seemed hopeless, and yet today they are the happiest people I know.

Whatever you end up doing, I just want you to know that I believe your existence is a treasure to this world, and many others do as well. But I don’t know anything about the rest of your situation, and I respect whatever you decide to with your own life.

Ugh i had no clue and this makes me so sad to hear, you are such a cornerstone for this community I can’t speak to all of the ways that you have “served” over the years, but your service here has not gone unnoticed. I don’t pray, but i’m holding you in my thoughts today ❤

thank you.

This sort of thing is actually terrifying for Democrats. A lot of the people that voted yes for this also voted for Trump. Clearly, for some reason, Americans are starting to believe that Dems aren’t the only party that will guarantee abortion access. This was one of the Dems’ most reliably popular platform positions in recent elections.

Thanks for assuming you know everything about me and what I am about. I voted for Harris. But unlike you, I respect the decision of people who didn’t, because genocide is a pretty fucking fair red line to draw. If both sides are advocating genocide, I can respect that someone might feel like the entire American project is failed and fascism will be essentially the same. I am not trans, but I have talked to trans people in my life who were extremely committed to withholding their vote until like, this week. They knew they were potentially sacrificing their own rights, but voting for self-preservation felt selfish when entire cities are being wiped out by Israel. Ultimately, everyone I personally know in that camp decided to hold their nose and vote for Harris.

But go on assuming things about your allies and sowing division, I guess. It won’t help anything, but whatever makes you feel better about Trump winning.

you just have zero empathy for people with busier lives than you? what about people that work a full-time job while caretaking for an ill parent and maybe also raising kids? people that can barely find time to sleep? it was Harris’s job to find a way to reach those people, and convince them to make time to vote. she didn’t.

what makes me not your ally?

The fact that you read my entire comment and laser-focused on that one detail. If we’re descending into purity tests on the Left, we will never win another election.

Fair point. It’s the day after the election. Anger is a valid emotion. Today, I’m choosing to direct my anger at the Harris campaign for doing fuck-all to court undecided voters. Not the people in this thread; I suspect almost every American here went to the ballot box and voted for Harris/Walz, regardless of their opinions about Israel.

When I say “undecided voters”, I mean the single mothers in Pennsylvania that are so completely underwater because they have two jobs and everything is so expensive now and they probably have medical debt and other bills weighing them down. The people that don’t have time to watch every Harris interview and decide whether or not they are “coconut-pilled”. Those people saw what Harris was selling, and the message they received was “more of Biden, who did fuck all for me”. In the face of that, and when you have to move heaven and earth just to get the time to go vote, why would you bother?

A lot of people (probably the majority) that stayed home didn’t do so because of Gaza. They did so because they are too busy to keep up with the news, and nothing they heard about either candidate was compelling enough to get up off the couch on election night. It was Harris’s job to reach and then convince those people.

Also a fair response. How the hell did a rapist and convicted felon win the popular vote?

I know I got that! I was just adding to the sentiment. If anything, I’m getting the sense that more here agree with us than disagree, and I find that heartening.

I mean, you could try to understand what led people to that POV, and then build a coalition with those people so we can win next time. Or, we could just sit here and point fingers at each other til the end of time while the GOP continues to court more and more voters to their corner.

I’m all for being angry about this. It’s the day after the election, I’ve been anxious all day. It sucks. But let’s point our ire at the correct people: the Republicans that voted for Trump, and the Harris Campaign that did a piss poor job of courting undecided voters.

I mean, if you’re referring to the people that voted for Trump, I’m right there with you. It’s absolutely mind-boggling that a rapist and convicted felon won the popular vote.

I want to build a broad-based coalition that marginalizes these fascists so we never again have to choose between a fascist and a genocide-enabler. But nah, let’s just stay in our echo chambers and tear each other to shreds while society crumbles outside.

I’m sorry, did you personally check my ballot?

I hear you. I can see the view that supporting an arms embargo might have also broke bad for Dems. I guess part of my point is that this is just one of a variety of issues where Kamala fumbled the bag.

I’m sorry, did you personally count my ballot? Or are you just making assumptions about me?
