lol, you two are making the same wrong statements my Materials professor talked about in his course
Glass IS a solid. Period. The whole "old windows are thicker at the bottom because glass is a viscous liquid" argument is completely false, they're thicker at the bottom only because glass makers couldn't produce flat panels like current ones. So they obviously put the thicker part on the bottom.
Racism in and of itself is a form of intolerance. Condemning racism is a consequense of promoting tolerance, not a form of intolerance. What you are constructing, this unrestricted meta-tolerance would lead to no tolerance at all in the long run. Karl Popper wrote about this in The Open Society and Its Enemies:
ffs, it's taxes from selling things on market, not trading.
You have a 200 item sell limit every year and they reset it in the start of the year.
In order to sell more than 200 items you have to put down your SSN or something like that if you live in the US, in other country's you need your ZIP code or birth certificate or address or something.
Srs, don't sell those 4 cent skins that take up your listing spots.
Backup your phone, buy a new one, restore the backup, remotely brick your phone so the thrives can't use it.
Then VIOLA!
Nothing lost except something that my warranty/provider insurance plan can handle.
I just feel that AMD is no where near the stability or the features Intel can provide, which are really needed in the workstation market. But considering most peoples workstations are just a 5820k with an x99 motherboard, and a 5820k is just a 4670k with 2 extra cores and some cache, and that the new zen cpu's should offer similar IPC to haswell but with 16 cores, zen might actually be an excellent alternative
I imagine it "passes out" in combat if it gets wounded, and revives after the combat period, same as important characters in fallout / elder scrolls that just fall down unconscious for a few minutes
I'll take 8 of them with single-slot bracket adaptors, do a double SLI config all under EKWB pure silver water blocks, and let DX 12 multi-adaptor take me as I keep them frosty and overclocked to 2GHz using blast-chilled alcohol in the loops which shall also run over a pair of E5 2699 V3 Xeon overclocked to 3 GHz (ASUS has a board for this actually).
It'll go fantastically in my pure ebony wood computer desk/case. I'll be the talk of the enthusiast world and prove my epeen to be the largest.
All sorts of environmental management GUIs just don't let you get to, or require far more hassle. Security and maintenance are definitely better handled through the CLI too.
You don't have to be that accurate. aliasing commands and tab completion make up for most of it.
At the risk of constructing a negative Foucauldian power system in so doing, I will assume that we are discussing this topic in the domain of the USA for the duration of this post. Lists are not exhaustive and overlap completely with each other. Trigger warnings: suicide, anti-semitism, bullying
Race, nationality, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, and ethnicity all factor in to even the most superficial identity of all people. Can you accept that? If so, then move on. I promise you will learn something about yourself that will change the way you see the world if you do continue. If not, then you can feel free to stop reading. Nobody's forcing you to.
Some people in the US deviate from what we shall call the socially constructed definition of a normal identity. If the existence of such a normal identity is not obvious to you or if you reject it entirely, consider the following: who am I? Who do you see me as? Am I a lesbian asian transwoman? Or am I a white, cisgender, heterosexual male? Or perhaps most concerning, can you even imagine me as a person at all? Chances are that most people in this conversation assume several key factors of their fellow forum members' and internet users' identities without realizing it at all. Is this inherently harmful? No, not necessarily. But subconsciously assuming that everyone you meet anonymously is like you is one of the first steps on the path to assuming that everyone perceives the world the same way you do and furthermore that everyone experiences the world through the same lens that you do. I'll be the first to admit that I'm terrible at assuming the identities of my peers to be fellow white people.
Now, these first two paragraphs are often the hardest for people who don't frequently think about these kinds of things to accept. When I first began asking these questions myself, I was extremely uncomfortable with the answers. I completely denied them for weeks at a time. And then gradually, as I thought more about the subject, the discomfort decreased. I had several profound realizations that cannot be described in words. These days I am learning to be comfortable with being uncomfortable, because at this point I've realized that the discomfort doesn't last long and I am always a better person for having endured it to the point of understanding it. I hope you can learn to be comfortable with discomfort too.
We good? If not, again, you can stop reading. I won't hold it against you, nor will anyone else. You may not be ready for it. I know I wasn't when I started thinking about it. Take a deep breath.
People who are not you have experiences that are different from yours.
If you're not a woman, you've never had to deal with being stared at, catcalled, and ridiculed simply because of your gender. You've never had to deal with being rejected from a job because you weren't a "cultural fit" with a company's all-male hierarchy. If you're not a man, you'll probably never know what it's like to spend your life being told that your emotions don't matter and that the best way to deal with adversity is to "man up," because American masculinity is inherently anti-emotional. The current patriarchally enforced image of ideal masculinity harms all people on the masculine end of the gender spectrum. It desensitizes us to pain through telling us that expressing our pain is woman-like and thus bad. Both genders experience the negative effects of patriarchy, but the major difference is that men often don't realize or refuse to acknowledge when they're being sexist, and when they experience these negative effects they often fail to realize their true origin. Forced dilution of emotion is inherently sexist against women, even though it negatively effects men too. This is because emotions are positioned as things that only women are allowed to express, and heaven forbid a man do something as horrible as acting like a woman! And when you're rejected from that job that you were qualified for in favor of a man, when someone harasses you at work, when you can't go up in the corporate hierarchy because you're too different, the meritocracy has failed you.
If you're white, you've probably never had to experience what it's like to walk down the street fearing at any moment that you might be shot dead because of your skin color. You don't live in constant fear of the police, because you've been told most of your life that the police exist to protect you, which is literally true. The police do a mostly great job of protecting white people. As a white person, you probably also assume that most high schools are like the one that you went or go to, doing their best to get you into college and onto the best part of your life yet. You may not know that there are high schools in this country with bars on the windows where less than a third of the seniors graduate because dealing drugs and joining gangs are the most reliable ways of securing a future for your family. And once you've committed a crime in those towns, you're done. You can rest assured that you'll never go to college. The police in those towns are all too happy to shuffle you between crimes for the rest of your life. But let's assume that somehow, against all odds, you make it to college. You graduate top of your class, valedictorian, perfect GPA, decent SAT scores, etc. You're still done. Want to know why? Because that perfect GPA is inflated. By the time you left high school, you probably knew more than all of your teachers. Unchallenged, you stopped learning. You were unprepared for college because your high school couldn't afford to prepare you. You did your best, and were given a slap in the face for it. And what has happened now? The meritocracy has failed you.
If you're cisgender, have you ever been told to kill yourself because of your gender? Can you no longer use Twitter because literal Nazis will pay to make your life hell as punishment for being different? Have your parents beat you for wanting to crossdress? Do you face constant scorn and disgust from everyone you meet, many of whom will tell you to kill yourself? Did you ever find yourself in a weeping huddle in the corner of your senior prom because everyone you asked to dance with called you an ugly tranny? Knowing that these are all things that transgender people face every day of their lives, does it surprise you how many end up killing themselves? Does it surprise you that those summarily rejected by society in the most horrific and violent of ways ever wish for an end to it all? When you work hard, you're always "that trans person who works hard" instead of just another regular human bean. And even after working hard for all of those years, when you kill yourself, the meritocracy has failed you.
If you're not gay, you didn't go through school fearing having to reveal yourself and the bullying it would receive. You didn't have to deal with bullies spitting at you and calling you nasty words, and beating you up on the playground after school. You didn't have to deal with your parents disowning you. You didn't have to deal with the state telling you that they wouldn't legally recognize a marriage between yourself and your partner. You didn't have to deal with any of these things.
You could truly be judged on the merits of your abilities. You worked your way up this ladder, and now you're at the top. Looking down, all you saw were the challenges you'd overcome, all the problems you'd solved, all the experiences you'd had. What you didn't see were all the people who were pushed off the ladder while climbing up, all the people who were forced to live at the bottom, all the people who decided to jump rather than continue climbing because they simply couldn't bear the suffering any longer, all the people who were shot when they climbed too far. What you didn't see is that the ladder simply stops before the top for some people, forcing them to climb the sheer face the rest of the way.
What you don't see is the elevator that you were born into as a baby that's been (slowly) climbing ever since, pausing at certain floors to take on more passengers. You may have been born at the bottom, or the middle, but you always knew you'd eventually reach the top without being shot dead first.
What you didn't see looking down, my friends, was the invisible hand of privilege, pushing that elevator up and up and up and up.
Personally, I dream of an elevator for all. I think the internet is part of the best shot we've had at one or will have at one in a long, long time.
Seriously, anyone who actually thinks this is true, just go look at the "source." It's just a post in a thread where someone is having an issue and somebody relates the issue to "nvidia changing setting without your consent" which is completely not even close to what's happening. People are just fast to believe it because there's a lot of hate on Nvidia as a company.
