Is DDR3 affected too?

When crossing into Minnesota from Wisconsin, do you see lots of dispensaries?

Yeah the roads are definitely the biggest giveaway, I noticed that between Ohio and Indiana, minor rural roads go from standard 55mph two-lane roads with a double-yellow line to narrower 45mph alley-type roads that are still wide enough for 2 cars to pass, but barely. And of course everything else is still farmland so not much different. I wouldn't be surprised if even the stores didn't change - a Walmart is a Walmart regardless of what state it's in.

Don't forget weed! Happens with Wisconsin and basically every state that borders it.

Yes I read what you wrote - most of it makes sense. I guess I never associated the interest rates going up with Ukraine, I always thought they were a response to the economy slowly getting better and worries of inflation caused by the 2020-2021 stimulus packages. Aka Biden was trying to prevent excessive inflation as the stimulus packages bore fruit (which obviously didn't work). But I do remember the interest rates being one of the big drivers of the layoffs once the tech companies no longer had near-infinite near-interest-free capital.

Why is everyone talking about tacos? What does a Mexican food have to do with Trump and Putin?

Was it really Russia’s invasion, or just because the interest rates went up to prevent too much inflation after the COVID stimulus packages? Hard to imagine Russia had that much demand for software compared to the rest of the world.

Jodel? The app used exclusively by my coworkers to post memes about their job, and seemingly not much else?

Because there are other things to talk about, and it’s depressing and not something the average citizen can really control on their own.

I really don’t care about whatever new crime against humanity they’re doing next, I just want to see Cities: Skylines content, or at least some mildly interesting discussions.

Doesn’t sound too different from Lemmy, except most users are radical left AND radical Linux users.
