TheQuartering - Gaming PC's BANNED By Woke States!

Dell.com - R12 Prebuilt PCs




so let me get this straight, gaming PCs use too much power, but i'm guessing a majority of these states are driving Teslas around charging it's batteries every other week? in addition to rolling blackouts?

COMING TO A STATE NEAR YOU.... SOON...

California use to be full of whiskey, women and gold.

Now it’s in perpetual drought, has a bunch of sissy trannies, and is flat broke.

It’s just a shame these young people (I’m 27 to be fair) just can’t realize these corporate entities only put in these characters in media and pander to regulations and rebrand themselves because of the money.

They don’t care about your sexual orientation or your race or anything like that. Once taking advantage of people’s desire for more equality isn’t lucrative anymore, media will become more provocative and so on and so forth. It’s like football and the cyclical nature of its game.

Sucks for them, but good for the rest of us for the time being I guess

I know this is a slight thread hijack but I get triggered AF when I see that Amazon commercial talking about saving small businesses in their warehouse areas. They really think we are stupid because Amazon is literally the reason a lot of small businesses folded

Progressive states that are pushing for everyone to have electric cars are banning the sale of gaming computers because they supposedly use too much electricity.

You are right though, it has nothing to do with “liberal”...because there are no liberals left. Only progressives.

Definitely woke though.

Bingo.

The biggest example of this I can think of is Leo. Dude was flying all over the world hyping up climate change and any other left wing cause he could, essentially begging for his Oscar. Since he got it, he doesn’t give a shite about that nonsense anymore.

Look at The Rock. 5 or so years ago, he was apolitical while doing 2-3 movies a year. Now that he’s getting a bunch of shows and producer credits, he suddenly hypes up a bunch of Democratic political candidates.

This is an absolute joke and possibly the biggest joke of all this ESG nonsense to come thus far. What is next, banning Christmas lights because they don't serve a productive purpose?

Did a little research, and the issue isn't that they are too powerful. It's that those states ban new products that engage in "stand by power leech".

Obviously governmental overreach, but products that are energy vampires are lame.

Again, it is hilarious that states that want to add millions of electric vehicles to the power grid want to ban these computers because they drain power from the power grid.



The shite is illogical.

Yeah, I doubt shite like toasters are really your problem

I started digging when I went to the page and saw that they had systems with 550w PSU with that warning. Which, for the uninitiated, is just sad for a "high performance gaming pc" like Alienware claims to sell

Looks like it’s a perfect time to be a underground “middle man” computer re-seller to those states.

While I’d much rather build my own than pay for the Alienware brand, it’s inexcusable for governments to ban products in the name of the fake “climate crisis.”
