  1. The Catholic Church doesn't exist today because it's conservative. Like if we proved genetics affect a person being straight or LGTBQ then like our doctrine would have to change because a God that loves us wouldn't create a being meant to go to hell. I think we should just let priests get married. As any man knows actual sex is what satisfies you so hopefully it would mean the guys left over doing this stuff are in fact actual pedos and not just horny and the kids are right there kinda thing.
  2. Plus with the theme park deal this is an ad for Universal Studios. Do they even have I guess a premium children's movie studio? Or is that Illumination and that's why we should've keep our expectations low?
  3. We should make our government motto. "Government by fuck you got mine." Trump and the Republican Party consists of mask off Americans.
  4. Based. Proof Republicans are gonna be progressive until they do that Vince Mcmahon higher power reveal.
  5. Our system is kinda designed to prevent the will of the people as funny as that sounds. If you think of it as a ruling document for a society of slave owners and a growing and growing ever more powerful urban elite alot of it makes sense. So something that makes sense a back door if you will. To prevent a majority from running wild without a super majority you have a fillibuster. The Condfederates secuded I think because Lincoln getting elected is a sure fire we are on the wrong side of history moment. The South will kinda try to invent a way for slavery to be the right side of history. There may come a time when you can't fillibuster an antislavery bill basically. Easier to break away and make slavery legal in the country's initial constitution. They mirrored our government because it's what they knew.
  6. I dunno if it makes you feel any better but reading your story makes me want to meet my father now. I just know a dude that last time I spoke to him was looking for a 25k business loan is borderline irredeemable. Not because he can't but he doesn't understand he hurts people and thus wouldn't want to change. Guess a hypothetical trip to Buffalo if I have kids might not be a terrible in your face. Yes I am saying your story makes me wish I could fix things with my father but I probably can't though. Grandkid doesn't hurt the situation I think.
  7. I bought the Prince of Egypt and I haven't watched it yet but hell yeah. The classic movies for kids of my childhood were the ones that went beyond being an ad for kids.
  8. Capitalism kiddo. It's an ad you pay for. You aren't used to it if you aren't a Gundam fan. (Anime is a vessel to sell plastic models story considerations are 2ndary to showing mecha model kits you can buy)
  9. We look at social media as something that makes humans worse. I propose we are wrong and it makes it easier to find like minded or near like minded individuals and radicalizing them. The idea of keeping in touch with people you lost along the way in life is cool but answering who would be atleast okay with the Nazis in the 1930s is ehhh. We always look at it as why it's profitable for these companies to foster hate but with Musk you can point at him and say he believes some/all of that hate.
  10. Whatever outcome punishes Trump for his crimes but doesn't lead to the GOP like trying to arrest their way to the Presidency because you can argue a President shouldn't be above the law technically.
  11. Tbh I have come to the conclusion. That my thought of "damn why am I not an incel?". Implies that my material conditions create incels but I didn't become an incel thus why are they incels. That difference is I respect women enough to go "hey they don't love me and they don't owe loving me to me. I have to earn it." Methodology is is wrong and practice was wrong the core sentiment wasn't. Women being whores wasn't a satisfactory answer to why can't I get a girl. Similar circumstances but a desire a lust if you will for knowledge meant I discarded wrong answers as opposed to trying to make it fit my world view.
  12. I could be wrong in fairness. I buy 7900XTX for the of course I can play MGS4 on an emulator at 4k. The 7950x is like what if I want to rip/encode a blu ray and play a game. What if The Last of Us takes forever to compile shaders and I might as well play something else while I wait. It's like edge use cases but you do it because you can do it. I could probably have done that on an 8 core processor or 12 core. I just dunno if Zen4's speed improvements have made my system super responsive or that in combo with 32 threads does.
  13. If it's reputation is Rogue Leader, Twin Snakes, or MGS4 like then I'm gonna say not worth trying. 4 Zen 2 cores sounds great until you realize the clock speeds are gimped for the iGPU's clock speeds. @Brian Ya ultimately a 13 or 16in screen with a keyboard and mouse that I can put somewhere comfortable next to me is better then a handheld PC for strategy games. I can probably play TW3 at native res close to 60FPS probably. I ran into less 5 speed on Stellaris/Vic is slow on the steam deck because clock speeds on the CPU limit performance so an Aya Neo felt better foe the games I normally play kinda thing. I used to buy 3k+ alienwares and a seperate ultrabook but Asus makes affordable gaming ultrabooks that are 2 in 1s so why bother buying 2 seperate devices at that point.
  14. See but this is where the steam deck kinda sucks. It's only a 4 core processor. I tried MGS4 on the Aya Neo Next and ya that didn't work. I think the 6800u just about maintains 60FPS in Twin Snakes. Like I'd buy this to be able to like play Metal Gear games that are basically lost to time when I can't use a good enough laptop to do it. I will try it but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna hit 60FPS at 1200p with a 3050 and Ryzen 6800HX. Those parts are literally more powerful then the gamecube designers could have imagined. Technology has improved and low power but at the same time excellent performance wasn't really a thing. Now depending on the specs this thing might run The Last of Us out of the box. The performance claims are 1.5x at I think 15-18 watts and double at 32 I think. Imagine a Zen 5/24CU RDNA3+ or 4 APU that is a lower power version of a high end chip for thin and lights. The 24CU is like a 6500XT now. It's pretty exciting.
  15. Almost as if people that benefit from the status quo want to keep it going dispite all evidence the status quo needs a major shake up.
  16. I fear he is claiming victory because this like pro-wrestling can at times feel scripted. It's a legitimacy question. He is say yes the election result is so close I can contest and by doing that win the election by him saying he has already won. He could just be an idiot but if he isn't then he would say these kind of things to sow doubt in the election results.
  17. We are so disfuctional Jesus. Imagine thinking this is "normal". I am uncomfortable with how I am able to define the United States as an oligarchy desperate to keep the oligarchy going. In the face of every new article screaming change is needed now and as crazy as it sounds more oligarchy isn't the solution.
  18. Thanks. Sorry I'm high and Phoenix Wright is funny but it's technically Japanese court. So my go to is Phoenix Wright but my reality is Kamala Harris would be opposing Phoenix Wright.
  19. Yes this kinda thing. This is saying "Yes even a former President can be sent to jail for crimes commited in his name before he becomes a president." That leads to he can be tried for crimes commited while in and eventually while holding the office of President. Our president's by virtue of the job could be described as war criminals. I wouldn't want that job if I can get put on trial for crimes commited on behalf of the state. I'm watching history in the making and being a history nerd means I know grim dark things happen and I should expect the grim dark things to happen. Plus I don't want grim dark things to happen. They tend to interupt the flow of my day.
  20. Oo I am 100% on board. I'm just older and wiser now so I try to think about the blowback of my actions. I do this by trying to not do things that could result in blowback. I don't want to inadvertantly make things worse for others. I can but I need to like live with my actions.
  21. It is but if you can get your client off on a technicality you do that. If it's all they got it's better then nothing. Edit: For trials like this it is still with a jury of peers and a judge provides a sentence? I kinda fear this situation not gonna lie. It's an escalation of our political tension and we really need to be de-escalating.
  22. Also a custom APU for this could be a negative. Ultimately this is a handheld x86 PC and the closer you are to that the better. So like off the shelf laptop parts would yeild better support as opposed to forcing AMD to make drivers for it. I can see why Valve went with 4 cores and it is a smart choice but it's a product of it's time. AMD was developing a laptop APU that was Zen 2/RDNA2 but never launched them. I can only imagine they figured it didn't have enough of a wow factor to bother producing. So we don't know what kind of work AMD had to put into making a 4 core APU when most of them seem to have 8 cores by default. Like did Valve save the day the chips were launched and the Valve idea meant they had chips for a customer. I'm interested in what differences does being an actual OEM affect the Ally vs other handheld PCs. When you think about it the Switch is a tablet. So handheld PCs are tablet PCs with a built in controller. As long as you approach these devices as a tablet Windows PC they aren't too bad to use. Actually that makes a use case for like people that might want something alittle bigger. I still love these things because it's cool being in a time where you can once again get it to PC gaming via integrated graphics. The Zen5 version of this is supposed to have like 24 compute units. As our boards Radeon dude that sounds really cool. Edit: I checked ya dude a 6500XT is 24CUs like I could see like entry level cards just disappear because an AMD APU would be like a bargain at that point. I'd love it if the APU did something like 4 cores but more then vanilla CUs so like 16CUs. Damn it @Brian ASUS did it. They got me intrigued.
  23. I am sure it benefits them in this case because he (allegedly) did do this. They normally drop these cases but it's telling they are not. We are in uncharted waters.
