So you’re saying it’s easier to get a gun in Mexico than a RTX 5000 GPU in the US
You really shouldn't be spending your money on either
nah. You should probably buy a gun now if you aren't a danger to yourself.
EDIT: Assuming you are in the US or its neighbours.
Don't buy it from a gun store, though.
Eh, if I'm in a situation I need to use my gun, the gun store is either defunct or I don't care about federal law anymore.
If I was living in the US, I'd definitely stock up on guns and ammo at this point. Not that it'll help, when the fascists come for you, but at least I wouldn't go down without a fight.
This is the one reason I’m happy Biden was in office. It gave everyone four more years to prepare. Marginalized communities were some of the heaviest buyers during that time. Small arms have been used to inflict losses on fascists since fascists became a thing. Disarmed groups are substantially more in danger than armed groups.
You can get a high point 9mm for a little over $100. Shotguns are not much more expensive.
How many people have you seen killed by a graphics card
Well, the 5090 power connector is trying to catch people's houses on fire, so it's dumb to buy one.
Only for like the 4th generation in a row, so it's not like they've had much time to fix this issue
Are you implying that it's easy to get an RTX 5000 in Mexico??
Yeah, but since the RTX 5000 doesn't even exist, it's no wonder
It definitely exists, why comment that and not take 5 seconds to look it up? It's such a common thing and it's just mind-boggling to me, don't say shit if you haven't even tried to verify it.
Yeah, but guns are safer, not even a real fire hazard.
