Its brand is about all it has going for it. It's the IBM of journalism. We like to think it's still a leader, but we're kidding ourselves in doing so.

To be fair, POWER 10 is an absolute beast. They did make the mistake of using a custom DRAM connection method (in itself actually good), for which there exists only one chip to translate it to normal DDR4. This chip uses someone else's IP for the DRAM controller part. This other company is against the system running with open firmware.

Apart from that, they're great.

I had this thought the other day - what was the last big story the NYT broke that wasn't Trump related in some way? Like, actual investigative work whether in local governments or in other countries. I can't think of a single significant story that the NYT itself broke and led the charge on

Good try, but just grep for Trump and you'll find the connection.

"Mr. Freidman, who was partners with Michael Cohen, President Trump’s former lawyer, disclosed the plan in a 2012 speech at Yeshiva University. "

If you think this, you clearly don't read the NYT regularly.

I read it regularly and work there. I should edit my comment to say "recently"

Suggest you delete this comment to prevent your cancellation. You appear to be a rational but dirty not-good traitor after all. /s

You can't be cancelled if you never say you're sorry.
