Fake shortage

It's the same in Canada. Firms fire native workers and hire Indians. The corruption is so deep that many Indians pay tens of thousands of dollars to get hired. In other words, their wage is negative. How can a local worker compete with that? Canadians are slowly waking up to this scummy and ugly reality.


So out of reach

About a decade ago, one of my coworkers was talking about how she bought a house for $110,000 in the early 2000s. Those same houses go for $700,000 now. Thanks to bidding wars, fees, and taxes, the final price eventually gets close to a million dollars. Note that these aren't mansions in some posh neighborhood. These are tiny, 1,000 sqft., houses close to factories.

A few Millennials got in early. The next generations have it really tough.


The Language Police

In the UK, you're a VERY BAD PERSON if you call a filthy migrant a filthy migrant. So bad, in fact, that you'll have not one, not two, but three thugs police officers lecturing you on your VERY BAD THINK.

Had John Cleese come up with this for a Monty Python skit, they would have thought it to be a bit too much.


Halaal retards

They're in the US for the possible passport, prestige, family clout, and the $$$$. If they truly liked America, then they would, at least, attempt to emulate her ideals. Instead, they want to eradicate the US and create another shithole like their homeland.

One can't expect much from a people who come from a long line of cousin marriages.


A losing move

I didn't think that the Ontario Premier would be dumb enough to follow through with his ridiculous tariffs but he did:

Ontario is imposing a 25 per cent surcharge on all U.S.-bound electricity as part of its retaliatory measures against U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs on Canadian goods.

The new levy took effect Monday and will add about $10 per megawatt-hour to the cost of power heading south, the province says. It will generate an estimated $300,000 to $400,000 per day, money that will be used to support workers and businesses hit by U.S. tariffs. [...]

"Until these tariffs are off the table, until these tariffs are gone for good, Ontario will not relent. We will not back down," Ford said alongside Ontario Energy Minister Stephen Lecce.

Yeah, how's that working out?

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he has instructed his commerce secretary to put an additional 25 per cent tariff on all steel and aluminum coming into the United States from Canada, bringing the total tariff on those products to 50 per cent starting Wednesday.

The president said the move is in response to Ontario's 25 per cent surcharge on electricity shipped to 1.5 million American homes and businesses across three states.

The US has a yearly trade deficit of $60 billion with Canada. Prolonged tariffs will be a net benefit for the US. This anti-Trump and anti-American sentiment is only going to hurt Canadians in the end.

Update
Wow, that was fast!

Ontario has agreed to suspend its 25 per cent surcharge on electricity exports to the U.S. following a call between Premier Doug Ford and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick Tuesday afternoon as President Donald Trump threatened to double tariffs on all steel and aluminum coming from Canada.

"We will not back down." That's what the Ontario Premier said. He backed down one day later. Macho yesterday, comical today.


A proper launch

That image of the in-store GPU stock was unreal. Only a handful of the new Nvidia cards while there are hundreds of cards from AMD! Looks like AMD had the correct strategy. They couldn't compete at the high-end. So, might as well flood the market and win mind and market share.


MAGA to the max

Yup. The media went psycho on New York royalty because he had the audacity to run as a Republican. Trump learned a lot in the last four years. He's taking a chain saw to the Left.

Also, the younger generations are learning quickly that accusations of SEXISM, RACISM, XENOPHOBIA, etc. are meant to shut down those who simply deal with and describe reality. The opposition and hysteria of the Leftists is to be expected and a good sign.


Beware of Hamilton Man!

A 35-year-old man from Hamilton has been charged after allegedly committing an indecent act on a GO train last month.

The Hammer is famous for its rogue characters.

He has been identified as 35-year-old Dhiraj Bhalla, of Hamilton. He has been charged with indecent act.

Investigators have released a photo of the suspect and said there may be additional victims.

Can you even get a more pukka Hamiltonian than Dhiraj Bhalla?


Trashcanistan

Vox Day on the rodent problem in Birmingham:

Birmingham is no longer “English” in any meaningful sense beyond geography. A city that was 99.6 percent British in 1951 is now less than 40 percent British. And its current situation reflects that; as the British population continues to drop, the third world aspects of the city will continue to increase.

This is why ethnic cleansings, racism, and ethnic violence are absolutely inevitable everywhere around the planet, but especially in the large British and European cities. Because, at the end of the day, some people are simply unwilling to live in hellholes and others actively prefer it.

Ugly noise, atrocious smell, scummy conduct, cultural decay, predatory behavior, and now, vermin explosion. It's a sad, slow-motion suicide of Albion. One does feel for the younger peoples of the West as chaos and terror is their inheritance.


Vat your problem is?

Forget about winning, even the very idea of a White Christian running in an election in the Asian subcontinent would be a silly joke. Of course, the opposite is completely normal in Clown World:

Soon, the three main languages in the UK will be Arabic, Hindi, and Punjabi.


America first!

The Supreme Dark Lord on the possibility of the US leaving NATO:

This would be absolutely fantastic news. I hope he’ll announce the planned withdrawal of all US troops and nuclear missiles as well.

NATO should have been disbanded in the 1990s after the end of the Soviet Union. It's long past its best by date. Western Europe has sufficient resources to stand against any Russian forces which, by the way, are going to collapse in two weeks.

Anyway, better late than never considering this retarded behavior from a founding member of the NATO alliance:


Are you tired of winning?

How refreshing. A political leader who cares about his people!


Defective Silicon

I've been following tech news for over two decades. This is, by far, the worst GPU launch ever. Here's a list of the problems:

  • Fake MSRPs. Sold out at nearly 50% higher prices.
  • Fake frames to pump up the FPS numbers. In reality, mediocre performance increases from the previous generation.
  • Real flames: melting power cables because of idiotic cost-cutting measures. Worse, they've known about this problem for over two years. Instead of fixing it, they boosted the power requirement on their top card!
  • Drivers issues: black screens or BSOD.
  • Removing PhysX.
  • Imagine, paying a ridiculous $3,000 for their flagship card, only to learn that it has hardware defects.

Fake News courtesy of USAID!

The last word she said was Yahood which translates to Jews. There are literally millions of Arabic speakers in the West who can effortlessly see this falsehood. Can't hide the truth!


This doesn't make any sense

Wait a minute. I was reliably informed by the "education" establishment, the "mainstream" media, TV shows, and movies that we live in a very bad patriarchy where there's towering male privilege and the poor wahmen are super oppressed! If anything, there should be a lot more women who identify as men for those sweet male benefits. Right?


"Multi-failure generation"

Just awful behavior from the biggest company in the world. Near-zero supply, pointless MSRPs, melting power connectors on $3,000 GPUs, fake frames, real flames, wonky drivers, black screens, and now hardware defects. They practically own the market; they could have delayed the launch to fix these issues. Instead, their reputation takes a beating.


At least it doesn't melt

A $1,000 GPU with a small chance of defect:

As Nvidia confirmed yesterday, a handful of RTX 50 GPUs have been affected by a manufacturing defect resulting in fewer ROPs than specified. The impacted GPUs, per Nvidia, include the RTX 5090 and the RTX 5070 Ti [...]

I bet that a majority of the customers who get the slightly defective 5070 Ti won't even be aware of that fact since it still gets 90-95% of the performance. Those who complain will get replacements while the returned cards will be sold back in the market at slightly lower prices.

Very shrewd of Nvidia.
