Gamers Nexus tonight posted a THREE HOUR DEEP DIVE on how Trump's tariff regime is completely fucking _one segment_ of the computer industry: custom computers and components including gaming PCs.

I have now watched all of it.

IT IS WORTH YOUR TIME.

I _never_ say that shit about a video this long but it is a documentary of _goddamn note_.

The transparency from Hyte in particular - it's stunning. They're just dumping pricing trade secrets because they literally can't do business in the US as things stood at time of shooting.

And this is just _one_ industry.

$600 for a PC case, anyone?

Spurred by deteriorating U.S.-Canada relations under Donald Trump’s second administration, annexation and #tariff threats, many #snowbirds are selling their U.S. properties en masse, driven by a surge of #Canadian patriotism, fears of hostility, and new restrictive travel rules. This #exodus is poised to deliver a significant economic blow to the U.S., while Canadians rally to boycott American goods and assert their national pride.
