So I had a 2070 in mine, and updated last year to a 4070ti. I’m not going to lie to you here, the difference hasn’t been earth shattering. I mean it’s obviously better, but if you are gaming in 1080p, you should still be good for a bit yet. Games are released so horrendously optimized anymore, it doesn’t matter if you have your own personal nuclear power plant powering a video card the size of Texas, it’s still going to suck.

What card do you currently use?

But it’s ENHANCED this time.

Now shut up and give us your money. We have shareholders to enrich, won’t anyone just think about the shareholders…

That’s just it though. The top managers who make these decisions will probably be fine, half of them are probably at their desk this morning. It’s always everyone else that has to pay the price for their management missteps.

I just don’t have any animosity towards any of these people. Are they the ones acting like lunatics? No. So why hold them accountable for others poor behaviors? Especially in Vancouver, that’s holding people accountable for a foreign actors actions. It’s kind of lunacy when you think of it.

He’ll get taken care of, one way or another, I have no doubt on that. When people go to buy a car, I’m pretty sure a large portion of them are going to be pretty turned off by all of this, I know I am. I won’t be racing down to buy another one anytime soon. But I am not holding myself accountable and complicit for a purchase I made a year and a half ago. Especially when it wasn’t clear that Trump even had the Republican nomination until late summer 2024, and Elon didn’t endorse Trump until July 2024. We all knew he was a bit of a child, but I dont think Joe Consumer could have foreseen all of this at time of purchase, even with Cybertruck orders. So why hold these people to blame?

Society in large numbers is pretty weird, on both sides of the political spectrum. Donald Trump isn’t even the biggest evil that faces us either, it’s what empowers him, and that’s social media.

I still love my car, and enjoy driving it. I have nothing to do with the antics of their CEO, nor does it affect me in any way. It’s even in a foreign country (I’m Canadian). Would I race down and buy another one, not after this, no. But at the same time, I don’t look to the auto industry for the inspiration of ethical behavior. Look at VW and Diesel gate, not to mention they were started by the actual Nazis. When you see a beetle, that’s an actual swastzicar. BMW, Mercedes came from terrible people. Henry Ford was an actual piece of shit, heck Ford and GM each donated over a million to celebrate Trump’s inauguration, and could be seen to be just as complicit here. The former Chairman of Nissan had to be smuggled out of Japan in a coffin, just a few years ago, to escape criminal fraud charges. John Delorean himself got busted with a trunk full of cocaine in the 80s, trying to save his car company. Long long story short, don’t equate your consumer purchase choices with conspiring with lunatics. You’d pretty soon have nothing, as everyone from Amazon, to the social media companies, to your favourite entertainers, all act with an appalling lack of ethical conduct.
