An absolute harrowing but must read.
(🚨) The four PROOF reports on Minneapolis—of which the last, just published, is below—have done all they can possibly do to exhaustively detail, in near-book-length form, exactly what happened there, why it happened, and why it’s the start of something far worse.

Had my Long Covid specialist telehealth earlier today than scheduled. He's going to try time released 10 mg Adderall, that we doubled last month after 5 mg made no difference and the current 10 mg has only made my chronic fatigue drain quicker. So, see if that changes anything for help with energy.

Between what's happening with RAM, Storage, etc... and what's likely to be a new monetary policy forcing interest rates lower regardless of consequence I'll eat my shoe if video game hardware prices don't see dramatic increases across the board in 2026.
Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa says the company is monitoring rapidly rising RAM prices and the continued impact of US tariffs very closely.
Furukawa declined to comment on future price increases, saying it was hypothetical.
