  • Manufactured housing is, essentially, disposable housing. It doesn't hold up to the same standards as housing, and if it did, there wouldn't be a need for a special classification.

    My home was built in 1951, 72 years ago. Still solid, still livable.

    Mobile homes?

    https://www.mobilehomesell.com/why-do-mobile-homes-depreciate

    "Keep in mind that according to national regulations, mobile homes are usually considered to be habitable for 55.8 years more or less."

    and:

    "Unlike “built” homes or real estate, mobile homes depreciate in value similar to other types of private property. This is largely because of the way in which they are constructed and their mobility.

    A certain decrease in valuation due to depreciation is inevitable. This begins to apply as soon as you buy your home. In general, mobile homes depreciate at about 3-3.5% a year. Working out how much your manufactured house has depreciated can help you to fairly accurately determine the current value of your home.

    For example, a home that originally cost $50,000 will be worth $ 41,000 after six years."

    So you burn a bunch of carbon resources making housing that's going to be worthless and in a landfill in 50 years.

    How is that "better for the environment"?

  • If it had 10 GB at the higher speed it would still be hamstrung, but not as badly as it is with 8 GB and 2 GB that's essentially unusable except for maybe UI overlays.

  • More shocking is the speed of the RAM involved.

    Xbox Series S
    8 GB running at 224 GB/s
    2 GB at 56 GB/s

    By comparison:

    Xbox Series X
    16 GB @ 560 GB/s

    PS5
    16 GB @ 448 GB/s

    Xbox One X
    12 GB @ 326.4 GB/s

    Steam Deck
    16 GB @ 88 GB/s

    Switch
    4 GB @ 25.6 GB/s

  • State charges wouldn't be pardonable in Federal court, what it WOULD do is widen the jury pool outside Fulton County and block the TV cameras.

    Getting jurors from outside Fulton county being the primary goal given how hard that county broke for Biden in 2020:

    J. Biden Dem. - 73% - 380,212
    D. Trump Rep. - 26% - 137,247

  • Re: Hatch Act violations:

    "“Not only that, but Meadows is saying ‘he would have yelled at me if I didn't do it.’ That alone is also a violation of the Hatch Act. It's not just that President Trump was involved in the false electoral scheme, but he's getting his chief of staff to do it. And the chief of staff knows if I don't do this he's gonna yell at me. That is a Hatch Act violation. One of the one of the only provisions of the Hatch Act that actually do apply to the president. You're not allowed to, as president, tell an employee or intimidate an employee into engaging in political activity on behalf of a candidate. What else is that?“"

  • Low bar. :) The Xbox One X has more RAM than the Xbox Series S.

  • Weird that Willis put charges on a couple of the fake electors but not all of them. You'd think that scheme was a communal effort.

  • FTA:

    "No matter what you choose or where you turn, you and everyone else sound like idiots, which adds to the realism of the experience."

    That's not "realism" to me and was the #1 reason I refunded the game.

  • I'm sure he paid taxes on that inflated wealth too, right? ;)

  • As a console gamer, I don't have to worry about it. Xbox Series X, PS5, Steam Deck are all AMD based. The Switch is Nvidia, but honestly, I can't remember the last time I turned the Switch on.

  • URL is:

    https://therightview.com/

    So it was just an error on the part of whoever put up the graphic. Someone still should have caught it.

    https://www.therightview.com/ does take you to the same site.

    There's nothing preventing them from setting up wwww as a subdomain if they really want the Trumpian "sharpie pen" version of "see, we were right all along."

  • Bottom paragraph, page 1:

    "Furthermore, your note calls to mind another letter recently submited to a House select committe: 'This unprecedented action serves no legitimate legislative purpose and would set a dangerous precedent for future Congresses... the American people deserve beter.' See Letter fom Rep. Jim Jordan to Chairman Bennie Thompson dated January 9, 2022."

  • I read the whole thing, it's brilliant.

    I half expected an aside of "And I will strike down upon thee With great vengeance and furious anger Those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers..."
