Nobody knew labor could be so complicated!

I've always said, anyone willing to administer a punishment should first experience it themselves. Same way police officers get tased and pepper sprayed in training.

It's complicated. Some countries are allied in one aspect, and bitter enemies in another. For example, the US and Russia are military and world-power rivals, but frequently cooperate in scientific endeavors like the ISS, and conduct plenty of resource trading, like oil and minerals.

Or at least they did for a while. Russia invading Ukraine hampered that a bit.

They do own a big part of the secondary market. For steam marketplace, they get a cut of those sales too.

More like far less profitable over years, but far more this quarter. And when it inevitably goes south because you're squeezing too hard? Who cares, on to the next company!

When you said "training program" it made me think Portal style. Like the new exec gets hired or promoted and wakes up in an Aperture facility voiced by Gabe.

Is this making America great again?

I know Dell has been doing a lot of AMD CPUs recently, and those have definitely been beating Intel, so hopefully this continues. But I'll believe it when I see it. Often, these things rarely pan out in terms of price/performance and support.

No.

Unless you are taking specific actions to avoid those activities while accomplishing something that would normally be taxable.

For example, simply not buying or selling anything, or not working, means no sales or income tax. That's all fine and dandy (and in fact if you make little enough money, you don't even have to bother filing taxes). But if you say "oh, I'm not going to work for you, I'm just going to show up at this business every day and sweep the floor out of the goodness of my heart, and it's just so incredible that there's always a bag of groceries that would be going to waste each week" then yeah that's evasion. Probably not to the level that the IRS would actually come after you, but evasion is how they got Al Capone, because they wanted to nail him on something.

Yup. You want a server? Dell just plain doesn't offer anything but Nvidia cards. You want to build your own? The GPGPU stuff like zluda is brand new and not really supported by anyone. You want to participate in the development community, you buy Nvidia and use CUDA.
