Ok, so the alternative is buying Intel/Nvidia. Surely they've never done anything problematic, so this is a good plan.

    No no no. You buy half an intel chip, and half of an AMD chip. Then mush them together!

    Ya know......being alive isn't really that fun anymore. I've always loved the surreal humor, and absurdity that you can create nonsense from. How am I supposed to be a surrealist comedian if every stupid thing I say is actually real, and already happened??? Not to mention the rise of AI where even the stupid things that aren't real can be claimed as real? Old people already have enough issues understanding real life when everything is real life. I'm 42, and AI imagery and videos are starting to become hard to tell when something is fake. Imagine how indistinguishable it will be by the time I'm 80. The technology will be so advanced that AI will CREATE reality.

    Not saying what you posted is AI. I'm just saying that when I posted that, my line of thinking was "Ok, what's something really really stupid I can say as a concept?". That was what I came up with for something so stupid it has to be absurd.

    And then you showed me it's real, and already happened. How is my absurdist humor supposed to compete with real life when real life is SOOOOOO stupid already, and getting dumber by the day??? Oh, hey, did you guys see any of that UFC cage fight on the front lawn of the white house? I promise you, I'm NOT making this up. That's real. That happened. We've changed the genre of Idiocracy from comedy, to documentary.

    We live in the dumbest timeline.

    (btw, I upvoted you. I'm mad at real life, not at you)
