I’m thinking even for cases of like shrinkflation.

I saw an article about potentially cheaper RAM here, so it got me curious if things ever really get better on occasion.

    that’s insightful; so much of reaganism was ‘let daddy take care of things and don’t worry your pretty little head about ww3’.

      I remember reading his malais speech and thinking that the American people were a bunch of babies for trashing him over it.

        malais speech

        I’d heard this mentioned but it was before my time, upon reading it… holy shit, america, this guy described problems like an adult and you freaked the fuck out and went reagan.

            it just says so much when they tell you who they think the good ones were.

            like, so many of them still idolize trump, and he’s a moron.
