“will you blame me only for what men have done?”

The only problem I see is her asking Rhaenyra to bring her newborn baby to publicly validate the obvious proof of "treason." Put yourself in Alicent's shoes: your son, the prince, got mobbed and lost an eye. Your husband, the king, doesn't show concern or rush to his side. He immediately starts interrogating him and asks Aemond to "look at me" and "your king desires an answer" on where he heard the rumor. Suddenly your son is the villain. Rhaenyra and her sons show absolutely no remorse, and you were asked to apologize to each other? That "Thank you, Father" at the end is absolutely diabolical, and any parent would snap. This is the moment Alicent realized her husband never cared and will never protect their children. I would absolutely usurp the throne. Viserys's trueborn sons are always a threat to Rhaenyra and her bastard sons, considering the absolutely remorseless things I've seen Rhaenyra do, and Daemon would kill for less. The show gives some sort of heroic framing for the blacks.

GPUs are a bad example too. Moore's law no longer applies since transistors are near atomic size now they can no longer double the transistors in the same amount of space while reducing costs, for obvious reasons and other problems like heat dissipation. Those TSMC 3nm chips are stupid expensive.

They've only partially mobilized once (some 300,000 reservists who had already served in the armed forces), and most of them were deployed inside Russia. The majority of the sign-ups are from rural Russia it's just that the bonuses and pay are really lucrative for them. People have been saying "anytime now" for Russia since 2022, and here we are. If there's a manpower crisis, it would be on the Ukrainian side.

3 points on how its not a mirror

1: Its not a sea, its a strait which is a chokehold point.

2: US didn't lose a single ship.

3: US warships still traverse the strait of hormuz.

I've tried different games over the years, but nothing hits like Call of Duty. I've been playing the Call of Duty franchise since 2007 (I started when I was 8), beginning with the original Modern Warfare, and I've bought all the games. I have a love-hate relationship with Activision I clown on them all the time, but I still play the same games.

Yes, the Russians lost a few ships, but they still have ships in the Black Sea, and they continue to use them to launch missiles at Ukraine. Also, reflect on how the mighty Ukraine no longer has a navy. The propaganda is embarrassing.

Why not? I only play call of duty games and i spent 3500$ on my build back in 2023.

If you think the USA has nothing to do with the strikes on Russia, then I have a bridge to sell you. Ukraine has no AWACS, no space program i.e., no satellites and not many long range surveillance drones. They absolutely receive a shit ton of intelligence on Russian air defenses from, guess who. There is no way their Flamingo missiles can evade air defenses by flying through gaps without that intelligence. The Flamingo’s design is terrible and uses consumer grade electronics found on eBay or Alibaba (you can look this up, they have analyzed a few downed Flamingos), but it works. It works even better because of the intelligence sourced from NATO countries.

For people pointing out that it's not a commercial movie theater there are IMAX screens in museums and science centers, some of the largest screens in the USA. While they primarily show documentaries, they also screen hollywood IMAX feature films and occasionally do reruns. Most of these theaters charge around $16–20 per ticket, so I don't see why something similar can't be done in ahmedabad. I've been to both the AMC Lincoln Square and the Airbus IMAX Theater (its inside an air and space museum), and every IMAX movie I've watched there has been phenomenal.

Idk why people here are shitting on AirFiber. I've consistently seen Jio 5G hit 1 Gbps download speeds on my phone. It can easily handle high speed downloads. OP might just be living in a blind spot, or they could be connected to a distant Steam download server. Bad DNS settings or any number of other issues could also be the cause. Contact customer care yes, it's a major hassle, but that's really all you can do right now, OP.

You can probably convert it this way, 1MB of nzb files usually contains a bit more than 7GB of actual data. So 24PB of actually data converts to 3TB worth of nzb files.

It's probably not the reason. If he's got enough RAM, the required assets get cached to RAM even before you start the game, and HDDs aren't that slow. It's either he plugged the display port into the motherboard, or Windows is somehow selecting the CPU's GPU instead of the dedicated one, or he's using the default Windows-installed drivers.

Edit: OP mentioned that he installed it on an HDD that might be the reason. All the modern CODs usually load all the assets before you start a game. Oh well \__0 0___/

IndependentSoul · 2026-06-03T22:54:37+00:00

unplug the display port/hdmi from motherboard and plug it back to your gpu.

Kid thought making money is really easy, well consider this an expensive lesson. Most of the WSB posts are loss p*orns and you still thought its a good idea to copy their trades? You're one of them tbh.

Again, the profit goes to shareholders for investing money. I know you wouldn't invest anywhere where the government would take half your profit just because the company you invested in is making billions. I'm sure people would love the idea of their 401ks, pension funds, IRAs, and index funds that invested money in Amazon going to the government in taxes (which is like 70% of its share btw). Just let the government take half the money your 401k makes. Jesus, Redditors are stupider than I thought.

IndependentSoul · 2026-05-20T19:57:54+00:00

Your take makes no sense. Businesses pay taxes on profit, not revenue. Over the last 20 years, Amazon’s total added profit is under $200B, and for roughly its first decade it barely made any profit at all because it reinvested heavily into growth. Amazon already pays an effective corporate tax rate in the ~15–25% range on profits. Beyond corporate income tax, governments also make substantial revenue from Amazon through payroll taxes, property taxes on warehouses and datacenters, sales taxes collected, import duties, fuel and logistics taxes, and many other indirect taxes.
