What makes Harvard a prestigious school? The amount of federal funding they receive? Perhaps they SHOULD lose their funding, put them in even playing field with other colleges.
Because the elite's scions can go there and eat each other's cum and get anally penetrated but no homo bro! It's a secret society ritual!
 
Hoooly shit

Next doomer saying we’re going to lose the midterms, idgaf, lefty culture is in full ass rout

I don’t know how to be cool and make the video show up, but the link is an SNL sketch making fun of gay male couples who have babies

Heavy implication that they just stole a baby from somewhere
If the "left" does win in 2028 or any other date thereafter, it's going to be a completely unrecognizable left. Probably even more of a contrast than MAGA is to 2000s era conservatives.

Hell we might actually just get a party that genuinely tries to aid the middle class and labor force without all the clown world shit as they start to realize that's very popular and the rest is not? Almost as if the system works? I'm probably dreaming.

I'd douse you in a bucket of ice water if I could.
 
Okay. "Human dignity demands that we open the border to these crying, brown children."
I'm sorry, Human dignity never demanded such a thing in the thousand of years it existed before Human rights came to be. Because Human dignity does not grant everyone an equal right to other people's nations. Try again.
 
Joepedo slurring and trying to sound like a fighter and yell but with everything that even fags admit is true now, it's all sad:

I actually feel bad at this point for continuing to laugh at him. I unironically miss the days of him ranting about Cornpop and challenging reporters to push up contests.
 
From what I've heard through the grapevine educational conference attendance (for reference these can be 300-1000 dollar tickets depending on audience, E.g. professional or layperson) and flights are both down over the past 6 months or more and that was before the tariffs went into effect.
That suggests it is probably because people are having a tough financial time right now, or as you said are feeling uncertain, more than anything I think.
that's my impression too. it reeks too much of midwit correlation TRUMP'S TARIFFS MAKE PEOPLE TRAVEL LESS, when there are a lot more factors involved.

My understanding is that Europe is kind of behind wrt the tech sector. I’d like to keep it that way. This idea about changing the way manufacturing is ordered, i think can hurt our dominance. I don’t have as clear an idea why, but that’s how I feel. Like we would be letting Europe and these other countries build their own competing sectors as a result of these bilateral trade barriers.
and it will stay that way because europe is run by retards. UK doesn't even produce steel anymore because MUH GREEN ENERGY. beyond that EU isn't america, anything that happens has to be porkified for everyone getting their piece, otherwise it gets dragged out endlessly. in the US even if states compete it's still happening in the USA.
plus, there's a reason people complain about EU's bureaucracy, and most likely it's only getting worse the more shit hits the fan (deindustrialization, demographic change, competency crisis etc.) before actually solving it's current issues, let alone future ones. this will also never change because everyone is deathly afraid of someone actually doing something and becoming the next hitler/musselini/franco (ever wonder where all those guys came from?), the whole system is set up to prevent that - or any "unwanted" positive change.

It's very likely he was paid. The Obama family makes their livings off Barack showing up to places and speaking on mic.
 
Trump just nuked nVidia by banning their China-compliant chips from being sold to China.

On April 9, 2025, the U.S. government, or USG, informed NVIDIA Corporation, or the Company, that the USG requires a license for export to China (including Hong Kong and Macau) and D:5 countries, or to companies headquartered or with an ultimate parent therein, of the Company’s H20 integrated circuits and any other circuits achieving the H20’s memory bandwidth, interconnect bandwidth, or combination thereof. The USG indicated that the license requirement addresses the risk that the covered products may be used in, or diverted to, a supercomputer in China. On April 14, 2025, the USG informed the Company that the license requirement will be in effect for the indefinite future.

They're expecting a $5.5 billion write-off from orders they now have to cancel. Stock down almost 10% after-hours since the announcement.

EDIT: The H20 chip was specifically made to sell to China for AI since their H100 line was previously barred for export.
