Your perspectives suck and no one’s told you. This was maybe a time when you should’ve only asked a good question.
That’s not a judgement of you as a person.
Handjob McVape chose a ridiculously gerrymandered district. This is middle class wage slaves, rural property owners, and the employees of rural property owners (incl. oil workers on rented rights).
Pot smokers worldwide lean hard left or are unengaged with their political and activist proceses.
It’s not COVID making people stupid. They’re just stupid, always have been, and don’t know it. Humans have been choosing kings to conveniently let another reason and choose for them since the beginning of humanity. They’re not changing. You are.
Stupider or wiser relative what? If we measure against a what it takes to live a wise life at the time then people are definitely getting stupider (and you are absolutely correct). The wisdom required is rising much more quickly than the wisdom possessed.
Perceptions are also easily swayed because we’ve been on an unusually long objectively (not relative) downward slope. Some think technology of communication the last nail in the coffin, that we will never begin to become wiser again. They may be right. You may be very, very correct. But, hope is an important thing. In this, I think one should believe what’s necessary for personal morale.
You made me think more about pot smokers. I think you’re correct. Even in my own observation they’re a much more diverse group than I present. And, I bet a lot of them keep their habit totally private.
I came down on you pretty hard there. I think you saw I wasn’t attacking you personally. You received it so well you even changed my perspective. This is why I’ve faith in humanity. We’ve still got the special sauce.
Thank you for the compliment. But, in this facet the biggest difference between us is probably only how much time our parents bought us before we had to fend for ourselves. My ideas aren’t special, just regurgitated and stitched together pieces of work by actual smart people.
We’re on the same side because any reasonable and intelligent person is on our side. We came from all directions, reasoning our way to the same basic conclusions: It’s broken and humans suffer. We’ll sacrifice to fix it together.
I would suggest reading the parable of the widow’s mote.
It’s not my duty to solve the Christian’s problem. Their book teaches that love is sacrifice and that they recruit in love. If this one doesn’t know how to sacrifice for another because they’re online then their own text suggests they find another way to recruit.
If the one found a way to love the other, if they’re true to their faith, then we will likely never know.
The entire Biden campaign is “not Trump”. The most powerful closing statement Biden can make is to let Trump spout gibberish until getting abruptly cut off by the shot caller in the video booth.
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.
The next troubleshooting step implies need for a MB+CPU+RAM.
A Solution:
Buy a used rig as a cheap, not often used, but critical tool. Strip it of the case and PSU, put it in an ESD bag, in a box, on a shelf.
MB have proprietary plugs, or the old standard phased out IIRC early DDR3, or the new standard (old standard + more power pins and connectors). A modern gold PSU likely comes with the adapter to the old standard, serving MBs into DDR2. An adequate tool needs integrated graphics preferably on the CPU (not MB) for reliability; should POST past CPU and RAM; and preferably doesn’t need an adapter to the old standard.
One reactive experience like OP costs how much money and effort? Most could proactively set a budget of half and easily find a appropriate test rig. It’s cheap insurance.
Have been building up this PC over the past couple years. Runs well but am trying to figure out what the best upgrade would be at this point. My guess is memory, but I’m not sure. Budget is flexible but would like to stay under $300. Thanks!...
The MB is weak for gen3 PCIe. That’s likely not even 5% loss of GPU performance. It’s a mistake. But, it doesn’t seem worth the money to fix unless there’s also other reasons.
If you’ve trimmed the fat and still are running low on RAM then it’s the priority. Page file usage always kills performance. If you’re not running low then an upgrade does nothing.
I’ve a low risk tolerance with my desktop rig. My next upgrades would be a Gold PSU and line interrupt UPS.
When under duress Archer and Janeway are the shallow, emotional humans we often reveal ourselves to be. We throw away our principles as soon as the adrenaline hits, often before. It’s relatable.
Picard’s how we think ourselves. He’s privileged in mature procedure & technology, and has strong external support. He respects justice, law, and principle, then reasons a way to honor all of them in the specific situation. It’s thematically Jesus, OT judge meets NT wisdom, and unsustainably inhuman.
It’s not fair to compare Sisko. He’s lesser Starfleet authority than Archer and Janeway, reasons as well as Picard, he suffered little hope of a life worth living before the series even begins, and Jake’s youth prevents too much initial risk. Sisko by far has the best initial situation to be the best of the lot.
