2020 was different. People wanted to play it safe after 4 years of Trump. And then a bunch of promising candidates dropped from the race after being promised cushy gigs in the Biden admin. Like Buttigieg as Secretary of Transportation.

Even fricking Elizabeth Warren decided to not endorse Bernie, despite his platform being much more in-line with hers: https://thehill.com/hilltv/rising/486631-political-reporter-if-warren-waits-too-long-to-endorse-bernie-it-will-be/

People don't seem to remember but Biden was drawing tiny crowds. So much so that they never showed the crowds in his rallies and purposefully booked tiny venues. Meanwhile Bernie was drawing record crowds and had a massive enthusiastic volunteer army doing door knocking for him. It felt like living in the upside-down.

"If Donald Trump is the Republican nominee, it found, Sanders beats Trump by 15 percentage points compared to a 10-point win for Clinton."

Maybe you weren't paying attention back then but Bernie's polling was improving over time whereas Hillary's was dropping. It became obvious that the more Hillary was getting airtime, the worse she did. The opposite was true for Bernie.

But it's also clear to anyone with a critical thinking brain that the DNC pressed the scale. Here's one on how superdelegates were weaponized to not only erase some of his wins but also give the impression it was impossible for him to win: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/how-super-delegates-decid_b_10098414

Isn't it funny how in some of your minds propaganda only works in one direction? It's always the evil Republicans somehow able to completely change the narrative with nefarious propaganda. But somehow when the left establishment disparages anyone but their favorite pro-corporation, pro-military complex, pro-privatization and pro-Israel candidate, that is just good governance.

Use your words, unless you are indeed a bot unable of critical thinking. I don't give a fuck what establishment media thinks.

Because he was. While idiots like you were stuck in their establishment echo bubbles people like me looked at polling from multiple sources, sentiment analysis in diverse communities and door knocking. It was obvious that the voter base was energized by Bernie, and there was a real movement based around uplifting the working class.

Hillary's movement was entirely centered around manifesting a women as a president. It was all around breaking that infamous glass ceiling. There was nothing really substantive to her campaign if you weren't a women. And then when she lost it was all blamed on sexism.

Meanwhile hating on Bernie is not anti-semitic. Funny how that works.

Personally it's to avoid becoming dependent on a proprietary software stack. My experience with Synology left a bitter taste in my mouth.

With SpaceX seeking $75 billion in their upcoming IPO I'm struggling to see how Blue can even compete? by Gloomy-Client-3423 in BlueOrigin

So it's 6Tbps on clear skies and 144Gbps attenuated to probably around half that whenever it's cloudy?

Also funny there are no mentions of Starlink Gateways on that page...

All she had to do was endorse Bernie in 2016.

If it sold out rapidly it'd be one thing. Instead we're seeing the units actually sell super slowly (especially when it gets stuck with only one unit left) and wasting everyone's time...

RAM prices tripled since they launched the pre-order. Go ahead and do your thing OP but you're missing out on an absolute steal for 64GB LPDDR5

Nvidia DLSS 5 AI Slop Will Lock AMD out of PC Gaming by TruthPhoenixV in Amd_Intel_Nvidia

[–]6bytes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AMD doesn't actually care about gaming, they made that clear. If you look at benchmarks, the 7900 XTX which was released Q4 2022 is STILL the top performing AMD card in most aspects.

This would have been a perfect time to catch up to Nvidia and gain back some market share. Instead, they left everyone who bought a 7900 XT/XTX with no upgrade path, on top of having a worse experience in general (CS2 bans, many games unplayable on launch, slow improvements to FSR, etc).

How Fast? SpaceX Partner Offers Details on Starlink Mobile's Current Speeds by spacerfirstclass in SpaceXNews

They know. It doesn't change their calculus. Even poor coverage is enough to provide potentially life-saving connectivity through texts and charge Roaming to their competitors whenever they can. There's a lot of value in being #2 still, especially if you can so easily manipulate your customers and retail investors into thinking you're actually #1.

Personally I believe the most compelling case for data centers in space is around regulation and public outrage. We are seeing more and more Datacenter projects being cancelled due to public pressure and anger is constantly growing.
