We are in the endgame of dismantling science and education now.

Ha, that’s pretty optimistic to think after all this that democracy and voting will still be part of the picture.

It’s a “cold” civil war currently. And one side is just submitting and rolling over.

Oh but blue states not giving federal taxes over is “starting a civil war.”

The civil war is already happening. Wake the fuck up people.

It’s literally also how abusers speak to their abused spouses. “Look what you made me do to you.”

could be seen as declaring civil war.

To anyone paying attention, we’ve been in a cold civil war since at least 2016, if not before that.

“We ought to be really encouraged by what happened yesterday, and in spite of all of the injustice — which of course friends and audience of this show, of our friend Steve, know — we are going to prevail,” Mr. Roberts said, alluding to Mr. Bannon’s imprisonment.

He went on to say that “the radical left” was “apoplectic” because “our side is winning” and said, “And so I come full circle in this response and just want to encourage you with some substance that we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.”

This is Kevin D. Roberts of the Heritage Foundation. Point one is that he promotes the idea that the second American Revolution will be “bloodless” only if the left allows it to be, and point two is he describes it as something that is in the process of happening. That means it has already started and has been in motion.

We didn’t fire the first shot of the war here and I’m sick and fucking tired of the people acting like us pushing back is “declaring civil war.” No the fuck it isn’t they declared war on us decades ago now. What a fucking joke. This is classic DARVO, Deny Attack Reverse Victim and Offender. It turns the victims of a cold civil war into the aggressors when the actual aggressors literally passing bills that will fucking cause institutional social murder at a grand scale. It’s abuser tactics, plain and simple, at a national level.

Please don’t play into this false narrative, the civil war is on, us fighting back isn’t declaring it. Please stop letting liars and abusers dictate the rules of reality and what we accept as truth. You’re letting their lies set the bounds for how we operate and it’s that kind of bullshit that got us here in the first place. Stop giving them deference and treating their falsehoods as truths.

EDIT: Trump literally just suggested if Zohran Mamdani becomes mayor of New York City that he will withhold federal funds. We didn’t start this war. Any suggestion otherwise is bullshit.

The only time a hacker is going to target you like this is if you’re an extremely high value target like a CEO or if you’re in the crosshairs of a nation-state. The average hacker isn’t going to waste this kind of effort to hack someone with $200 in their bank account and no power over anything or anyone.

And this is why people wanted headphone jacks… and also why corporations didn’t want them.

This is a very important point. There is a reason there is a “cultural victory” in the Civilization games and the UK is definitely ceding cultural influence with this move.

I don’t know man, I’ve been wildly misinterpreted, and I try to clarify what I meant, because it’s my fault for not being more clear. I don’t get pissed off about it and choose not to explain it replying to a bunch of people how they’ve got it wrong.

Like, consider you go into public social a situation with a minority group you support, and you’re not part of that minority group. You accidentally say something that sounds off-color and unhelpful to the group in question, the people you ostensibly support. Now everyone is giving you dirty looks and raised eyebrows and wondering if you actually support them or if they should tell you to get lost. Getting mad at them because you are being misunderstood is never, ever going to make them think you actually support them.

On the other hand, it’s valid to be upset if you’ve taken the time to clarify and people are still willfully misinterpreting what you have said. OP didn’t even try to explain what they meant more clearly in any responses.

Hey, pro-tip, when literally everyone is misunderstanding what you said, it might help to clarify instead of doubling down on “I don’t understand why people don’t understand.”

You literally replied to a comment that implied that the establishment losing their minds was chaotic and a good thing. When you say you prefer stability over chaos in response to such a comment, it’s easy to see why people might misconstrue what you’re saying.

Anyway, bottom line it’s not everyone else’s job to figure out what the fuck you’re talking about. If you want people to understand, use your fucking words to clarify what you meant instead of this pompous fucking “I don’t get why you don’t get it.” Are you really so far up your own ass?

People misunderstand sometimes, and when everyone around you misunderstands, it’s on you not them to make clear what you meant. Even if you don’t understand how it’s misconstrued it obviously was, by a lot of people.

Semi-related: I use a music stand as a “monitor” for textbooks that I use for reference while working at my desktop. I have it at the same height as the rest of my monitors so I can just swivel my head to see it. I call it my “book monitor.”

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.

This is what you sound like right now. Because it got the people in power’s knickers in a twist, you’d rather have someone who didn’t upset the establishment so much by… *checks notes… promising to really help people?

This isn’t so much what I think will happen but what I hope will happen.

A lot of CPU’s are moving to on-die RAM so the RAM is closer physically to the CPU, reducing the time it takes to travel between the two, increasing RAM speed.

The downside to this is you can’t upgrade your RAM and there will be less on-die RAM than traditional RAM.

Currently, with traditional RAM, computers use a portion of hard drive space for something called “swap” which is space for when RAM runs out of usable address space to offload some data to until it needs that data again.

I’d like to see the rise of on-die RAM along with traditional RAM where traditional RAM becomes more of a “swap” for the on-die RAM. This allows for upgrade-able RAM to still exist while also leveraging the speed of on-die RAM.

Should have checked the weather before planning a picnic, duh!

Always has been.
