there were definitely some industries affected by it, but the inflation due to the tariffs were nothing compared to inflation due to Covid, neither being hyper inflation.

for the quip about steel aluminum, the Steel tariff won't change much given that it's just matching the tariff steel got back in 2018 under Trump, the aluminum one though is going from 10>25% reletive to the one in 2018. Neither caused hyper inflation at the time.

one of the few things that marks a super power is having (reletively) good logistics. almost all major corporations that sell products have to master logistics.

for microsoft, 2 of the dev atudios shut down were mobile, one of them merging into besthesda. the other two, Arkane Austin, released a really terrible game last year, the other which caused the uproar, Tango Gameworks, created a popular game. Though personally I think that closed down because the original director who created the company left, and it would be hard for microsoft to merge the team elsewhere due to being japanese based, so they shut down the studio, despite recent sucess. Microsoft probably has little experience hiring a new game director for japan.

usually when it comes to collabs, its licensing issues, especially if aaid product or IP is handled by different bramches or organizations internationally

because unlike lemmy where its usually about following topics, twitter is about following people, and migration requires said people who theyre following to also migrate

you need to /s because there will always be the one time someone is serious about it.

in my head, it would only make sense for it to "help you recover" if the type of damage you had was physical as youd typically have enough protein to aid in recovery.

probably same reason why some are anti birth control. kinda playing against gods role by manipulating the natural result.

keep in mind the price is not entirely indictive of the true cost when sold on a different country. BYD Dolphins had to be modified for international saftey standards, so the actual cost is higher than stated. While the cars will still be cheaper than "budget" cars like the model 3, Chevy bolt, nissan leaf and such after rebate, its not going to be the 12000 asking price.

basically you have the ability to drive in most directions but the drivers brilliant mind decides to drive towards a human.

wouldnt be suprised if the driver was intoxicated.

essentially its similar to product sponsorships and product reviews. Product sponsorships give the sponsor all the power to censor parts they dont like. Reviews should be honest and reveal something is good or bad.

they tried to say in order yo get into beta you can only say good stuff, so any online footage is similar to a sponsorship rather than an honest review

unique hardware that doesnt follow the conventions of standard hardware, so you have to write code to get around that fact. Take for example one of the reason why Wii/GC development went fast eas because the PowerPC processor is fairly well documented, similar to the Tegra X1 with the switch. Its always obscure hardware that makes hardware emulation harder (e.g PS3, Sega Saturn)

a good chunk of the switch top sellers are WiiU games. new isnt always on the table.

I basically always tell people, if you're buying Asus(in the U.S), youre essentially buying something new in box, but essentially considered used. Treat it as if its open box sale, because they will fight tooth and nail to attempt to deny your warranty.

Its a problem at various levels, primarily with the major Taiwanese Brick and Mortar companies. The sad part is how ubiquitous they are when it comes to the DIY portion of PC building.

they eventually have to cast doom else they couldnt do secret wars, as Doom is unequivocally essential for the event to happen/conclude. The Doom casting imo has to be heavily scrutinized due to how major the character will eventually be for the universe.

its what happens when cultures decide that money is what determines your status in society.

its less consumers, its more on intel handling logistics better than AMD. the FAR majority of laptops being purchased are business laptops, and AMD has a prpblem where they take orders, but take several months to complete them for some customers (which means lost sales and profit) whereas Intel is usually better at handling supply when purchased.

its only (supposedly) going to flip soon as laptop oems supposedly do not like Meteor Lakes performance, and Lunar lakes major design change is going to be quite the gamble.

yes, but the key difference is how its. typically used. reddit/lemmy is generally following specific topics while other forms of social media tend to follow specific people or organizations

so yes, both imo are forms of social media, but brcause of how you interact more with it is different, it feels like it's not the same.

using a computer traditionally was seen as a secretary job, so it was often dominated by women. its only as of post consumer computer events where a lot more males went into the field due to the large market it offers came in.
