Sagebrush posted:epoch times is the falun gong paper, right? yeah, which explains some of their youtube ads (i get them too, even though i try to be very careful with the videos i watch). one of them was just the nerd with his dumb vest yelling "we've just been attacked" by communists in Hong Kong or something like that. i somehow avoided hearing anything about falun gong until earlier this year. we got pushed on their dance troupe really hard, tons of youtube ads, a slick promotional magazine, fliers. it was a pretty extensive advertising campaign, it must have cost them a fortune.

we don't know what happened but here are some Chinese people who got fired for some reason. there's no evidence to suggest it's true but we're going to speculate that someone might have infringed on Canada's  intellectual property terrifying stuff

DuckConference posted:that doesn’t make me feel better about anything I think that chuds having a conspiracy about something shouldn't cause us to reflexively reject the possibility that a milder version of it happened. I think accidental escape lines up pretty well the initial cover-up. I'd say... 12% chance it was escaped from a lab. About the same chance that the 2020 election gets cancelled or delayed.

There seems to be part shortages everywhere as most of the components I was looking at are out of stock. I was waiting for the next gen Nvidia cards before I pulled the trigger, but it looks like those are moved out to the fall at the earliest.

to improve focus and efficiency we're now not allowed to work on anything that hasn't been lovingly crafted into a ticket and prioritized by the blessed hand of the pm but also they don't really know who we are or what we do and haven't been able to answer what ticket i should work on next when explicitly asked this is a tiny team that was mostly self-driven until a few weeks ago and could probably have gone wfh as is without much impact. we sure dodged that bullet

I was waiting for the next gen Nvidia cards before I pulled the trigger, but it looks like those are moved out to the fall at the earliest. same here, i was going to hold out until fall since the cpu was holding and I'd just bought 16gb of ram and a new gpu almost two years back which gave it an extended lifeline looks like the mobo fried sometime last night, since the psu tested fine. id been seeing some occasional video corruption when running intensive games at settings that had long been stable, so its not totally unexpected  the only stuff I'm seeing that isn't picked over is prebuilt, and honestly that doesn't look too bad considering the only thing worth keeping is the case and the gpu. super bummed about the timing probably helped I did some folding on it recently, even if i underclocked the gpu that was added work hours, same for more games because im not hanging out with friends anymore and we do stuff online now

consensus from coworkers is that most people are doing MORE work at home than they did in the office, longer hours, etc. maybe if the ceo realizes this we'll get some flexibility when the crisis is over meanwhile i'm sitting here posting, doing jack poo poo
