Mexico has restrictive laws regarding gun possession. There are only two stores in the entire country, DCAM near the capital, and OTCA, in Apodaca, Nuevo León. It also takes months of paperwork to have a chance at purchasing one legally.
So you’re saying it’s easier to get a gun in Mexico than a RTX 5000 GPU in the US
You really shouldn't be spending your money on either
nah. You should probably buy a gun now if you aren't a danger to yourself.
EDIT: Assuming you are in the US or its neighbours.
Don't buy it from a gun store, though.
Eh, if I'm in a situation I need to use my gun, the gun store is either defunct or I don't care about federal law anymore.
My local gun store is a guy with a pile of ammo the size of a minivan in his attic. He got a FFL collectors license or something, I don't know the precise legalities, so he can build his own and get rare shit without having to, honestly I'm not sure whether he pays more tax now than he would have, but the paperwork has got to be worse. Maybe he has a paperwork fetish. That actually does sound like him.
If I was living in the US, I'd definitely stock up on guns and ammo at this point. Not that it'll help, when the fascists come for you, but at least I wouldn't go down without a fight.
This is the one reason I’m happy Biden was in office. It gave everyone four more years to prepare. Marginalized communities were some of the heaviest buyers during that time. Small arms have been used to inflict losses on fascists since fascists became a thing. Disarmed groups are substantially more in danger than armed groups.
How many people have you seen killed by a graphics card
Well, the 5090 power connector is trying to catch people's houses on fire, so it's dumb to buy one.
Only for like the 4th generation in a row, so it's not like they've had much time to fix this issue
just soak it in water
You can get a high point 9mm for a little over $100. Shotguns are not much more expensive.
Are you implying that it's easy to get an RTX 5000 in Mexico??
Yeah, but guns are safer, not even a real fire hazard.
Yeah, but since the RTX 5000 doesn't even exist, it's no wonderIt definitely exists, why comment that and not take 5 seconds to look it up? It's such a common thing and it's just mind-boggling to me, don't say shit if you haven't even tried to verify it.
Sure, that's on me. But the commenter was clearly referring to the RTX 5000 generation cards rather than RTX 5000 card since the implication that he's having difficulties building an AI computer cluster is silly.
Go to the US, buy a gun at a gun show, put it in your trunk and drive back. Done in 1 day. Holy shit
