I have a Dell with UHD+Nvidia, took me a while to get Prime working to switch video cards. Even on UHD, it could do basic Steam games and Minecraft if you didn’t have high expectations.

So you actually believe a military should have quotas based on arbitrary characteristics such as race or gender

Not arbitrary at all. I think the makeup should exactly mirror the population distribution as closely as it can. We invade places, it’s hoards of guys and it’s a lot of rape and pillage and less worry about illegal orders. I think a proper distribution would help that out a lot.

And that any disparate outcome would be evidence of racism or sexism

Nope, don’t give a shit about that at all. I just think they should try to have our military not being 99% white men covering each others asses doing shit they shouldn’t. DEI isn’t just about combating racism/sexism, it’s making sure that the staffing matches the population. A team with 20% minorities will be less likely to be overzealous on minorities. A team of 50% women will be less likely to rape or allow the rape of women in action zones.

Would that be your position taken to its extreme, while your actual position has the same essence but is much more sensible in degree? Or what do you think?

Not quite sure I grasp that series of questions. I don’t think they should force minorities/women into the military, but they should try hard to be representative and mix everyone together. Nothing beats sexist/racist views in individuals like working closely with people of other races/sexes. Hell it might even drive out people that should have power over other people.

It’s obviously not without issue. But we need more mixing of culture/race/sex on the daily basis or we’ll be in this while male superiority complex society forever.

probably non-cancerous cooling sytsem or some shit like that, maybe lower RF emissions

I would argue against having military, but that’d be pointless. If we’re going to have it, it should be as representative of the population as possible. It might save the lives of underrepresented citizens when we’re invading.

It fucking sucks that companies can’t be trusted to do the right thing. But in this world where every big fish has to swallow up all the little fish, you really don’t have any chance at fair treatment without unionization.

The better mom and pop shops would profit share and dump money on the devs who crunched. Microsoft isn’t going to do that.

damn good idea, good on you!

Nobody was going to stay on 3.11

NT really lacked drivers and was super expensive.

We used 95, skipped 98 until se came out. We did a fair amount of Win2k, XP was pretty rough until service pack 2. When Serviceback 3 hit, we eradicated everything else on the desktop.

IT professional… SO MANY TIMES. Any not just reinstall, we were upgrading and doing primary installs.

I knew a 95 key and an office key. (which was easy because 1201234567 worked on O2k

And if that doesn’t scare them enough… Tinnitus

You go do some loud crap, concerts and such, don’t really care. One day, you’re sitting there and notice a ringing tone. It’s not necessarily loud, but constant like someone has a high speed fan running the background. Whatever frequency level your dammage is in, your brain fills in the gaps with a constant sound. Nothing and nowhere are ever quiet again. When you’re in a noisy situation where the noise is in the range of what remaining hearing frequencies you can still work with, you can’t hear anyone over. and as things progress, you can lose more ranges and the ringing can get louder and in different frequencies.

I didn’t think you could amp-up pretentious at this rate. Do you eventually level off or just keep going further in hopes that people ban you?

If you wouldn’t have been grumpy about downvotes, i’d have left it be :)

The community is speaking to you.

No, we read part three, it just comes off pretentious enough that we think it still deserves a downvote. It’s not a foreign language anxiety; you’re posting in English. It’s just the next rendition of l33t speak, and no one is really in a hurry for that to catch back on again, those were dar days. I did eventually block the last guy that was hot on thorns, might get to you eventually, but it would be a shame, because outside of the ridiculous way you said it, your point isn’t wrong.

I think it’s more likely that 29 people feel pretty strongly negative about your writing style.

interesting thought… do you think we would?

Yeah, fuck no.

Not even in an all white HOA meeting to make the point. A million other ways to say that or infer that.

Wait, is this the right place for the Spanish inquisition meme?

Left to the imagination of the reader

You should be able to clean that up with a relay on a known accepted provider. Sending out emails through Amazon SES should be reasonable without them selling your information.

Selfhosting isn’t as clean as it used to be, you pretty much have to buy some form of protection to play.
