    So you’re saying it’s easier to get a gun in Mexico than a RTX 5000 GPU in the US

            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.

            My local gun store is a guy with a pile of ammo the size of a minivan in his attic. He got a FFL collectors license or something, I don’t know the precise legalities, so he can build his own and get rare shit without having to, honestly I’m not sure whether he pays more tax now than he would have, but the paperwork has got to be worse. Maybe he has a paperwork fetish. That actually does sound like him.

        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.

      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.

          Sure, that’s on me. But the commenter was clearly referring to the RTX 5000 generation cards rather than RTX 5000 card since the implication that he’s having difficulties building an AI computer cluster is silly.
