I can relate to what the person is saying and for me it's more about people knowing something that they can't prove.

1gbps symmetrical

I have 2x 24G 3090 but IIRC comfyui doesn't support multiple GPU. That seem too low?

I have 2 vcpu (host) for the pfsense vm, xeon e5-2667 3.2ghz, i see both cpu hit about 80% max during speed tests.

pfsense ce 2.7.2-RELEASE

I've been dicking with stablediffusion for a while, now using comfyui... I have never been able to generate anything this good. What's the deal? Am I using the wrong tools or just using them wrong? Anyone have any advise?

my isp also does pppoe, i have a virtual pfsense, 1gbps up/down, it's never been an issue for me. ive had this setup for maybe three years.

What kind of change is ever good for a small business these days? We watched them get wiped out during COVID lockdowns, and we don't really say shit about it only a few years later. Is there any change that has caused a boom in small businesses because I can't think of any. It's almost like they're not fit for this world. Not saying this is good or bad, not a doomer, just saying it like I sees it.

I understand tariffs are mostly bad unless applied skillfully, and maybe with some luck, but yes I think there can be pros, and the pros might he hard times.

It's funny because I was saying the same thing basically in support of the tariffs and lemmy was unhappy with me.

You're saying "there's a reason reputable economists say", as if there aren't reputable economists also saying something else, like "tariffs are a tool and predicting impact is difficult if not impossible due to complexity". So, whats the point in mentioning that "reputable economists say" unless you're pandering to an appeal to authority. Economists are just people and can make mistakes, entire groups of people like "reputable economists" can have the wrong ideas at the same time, or collectively jump to conclusions. I don't care what economists say, I care about why they say it and if it makes sense. Your point is "there's a reason why" and you load this with "reputable". How do you qualify reputable and what is the reason they say? Could they be wrong and if not, why is there an economy at all?

Engineers make mistakes all the time too. The idea that an engineer can't be wrong about engineering and a layman can't comprehend even intuitively understand engineering concepts is exactly what an appeal to authority is about.

I'm having a hard time connecting what you're saying and my point. I also don't really care what economists are saying, I don't automatically assume economists are correct because they are economists. I understand tariffs are not good, which is why I said "ultimately", and nothing that you have said yet has changed that opinion, but I am open. I didn't even disagree with many of your statements I just didn't see how they connect.

Google "byd china car sell at a loss" and "chicken tax".

You will see price wars or the race to the bottom in the auto industry and you will see how tariffs on imported cars are one way we have protected domestic manufacturing.
